Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Schedule of Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis
The following tables presents the carrying values and estimated fair values at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 of financial assets and liabilities, excluding financial instruments that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis, and information is provided on their classification within the fair value hierarchy. Such instruments are carried at amounts that approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and generally negligible credit risk.
