McKESSON CORPORATION
FINANCIAL NOTES (Continued)
observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset. Multiple prices
and price types are obtained from pricing vendors whenever possible, enabling cross-provider price validations.
Fixed income securities are generally classified as Level 1 or Level 2 investments.
Fixed income commingled funds—Some fixed income investments are held in exchange traded or
commingled funds, which have daily net asset values derived from the underlying securities; these are classified
as Level 1 or 2 investments.
Real estate funds—The value of the real estate funds is reported by the fund manager and is based on a
valuation of the underlying properties. Inputs used in the valuation include items such as cost, discounted future
cash flows, independent appraisals and market based comparable data. The real estate funds are classified as
Level 3 investments.
Other commingled funds—The other commingled funds are invested in equities, bonds, commodities, other
alternative investments and cash and cash equivalents. These funds are valued based on the weekly net asset
values derived from the quoted prices for the underlying securities in active markets and, for alternative
investments, based on other valuation techniques. Other commingled funds are classified as Level 1 or Level 2
investments.
Other—At March 31, 2015, this includes $39 million of plan asset value relating to the SPK. In principle,
the SPK is organized as a pay-as-you-go system guaranteed by the Norwegian government as it holds no
Company-owned assets to back the pension liabilities. The Company pays a pension premium used to fund the
plan, which is paid directly to the Norwegian government who establishes an account for each participating
employer to keep track of the financial status of the plan, including managing the contributions and the
payments. Further, the investment return credited to this account is determined annually by the SPK based on the
performance of long-term government bonds.
