| Fair Value Measurements               | 2)  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTSThere are various valuation techniques used to estimate fair value, the primary one being the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  When determining fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and consider assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. We measure certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis.Fair Value HierarchyThe three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:•Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.•Level 2. Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated with observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.•Level 3. Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of assets or liabilities.Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring BasisAs of March 31, 2014 and 2013, our assets and liabilities that were measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in millions):   Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using   As of March 31, 2014 Quoted Prices inActive Markets for IdenticalFinancial Instruments SignificantOtherObservableInputs SignificantUnobservableInputs   (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Balance Sheet ClassificationAssets         Money market funds$588 $588 $— $— Cash equivalentsAvailable-for-sale securities:         Corporate bonds279 — 279 — Short-term investmentsCommercial paper146   146   Short-term investments and cash equivalentsU.S. Treasury securities118 118 — — Short-term investments and cash equivalentsU.S. agency securities89 — 89 — Short-term investments and cash equivalentsDeferred compensation plan assets (a)9 9 — — Other assetsTotal assets at fair value$1,229 $715 $514 $—  Liabilities         Contingent consideration (b)$4 $— $— $4 Accrued and other current liabilities and other liabilitiesForeign currency derivatives6 — 6 — Accrued and other current liabilitiesDeferred compensation plan liabilities (a)9 9 — — Other liabilitiesTotal liabilities at fair value$19 $9 $6 $4     Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)         ContingentConsideration  Balance as of March 31, 2013 $43  Change in fair value (c) (35)  Payments (d) (4)  Balance as of March 31, 2014 $4     Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using   As ofMarch 31,2013 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for IdenticalFinancialInstruments SignificantOtherObservableInputs SignificantUnobservableInputs   (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Balance Sheet ClassificationAssets         Money market funds$469 $469 $— $— Cash equivalentsAvailable-for-sale securities:         Corporate bonds178 — 178 — Short-term investmentsU.S. agency securities91 — 91 — Short-term investments and cash equivalentsU.S. Treasury securities88 88 — — Short-term investments and cash equivalentsCommercial paper73 — 73 — Short-term investments and cash equivalentsDeferred compensation plan assets (a)11 11 — — Other assetsForeign currency derivatives6 — 6 — Other current assetsTotal assets at fair value$916 $568 $348 $—  Liabilities         Contingent consideration (b)$43 $— $— $43 Accrued and other current liabilities and other liabilitiesDeferred compensation plan liabilities (a)12 12 — — Other liabilitiesTotal liabilities at fair value$55 $12 $— $43      Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)         ContingentConsideration  Balance as of March 31, 2012 $112  Change in fair value (c) (64)  Payments (d) (5)  Balance as of March 31, 2013 $43  (a)The Deferred Compensation Plan assets consist of various mutual funds. See Note 15 for additional information regarding our Deferred Compensation Plan.(b)The contingent consideration as of March 31, 2014 represents the estimated fair value of the additional variable cash consideration payable in connection with our acquisitions of KlickNation Corporation (“KlickNation”) and Chillingo Limited (“Chillingo”) that are contingent upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. The contingent consideration as of March 31, 2013 represents the estimated fair value of the additional variable cash consideration payable in connection with our acquisitions of PopCap Games, Inc. (“PopCap”), KlickNation and Chillingo that are contingent upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. We estimated the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration payable using probability-weighted discounted cash flow models, and applied a discount rate that appropriately captures the risk associated with the obligation. The weighted average of the discount rates used during the fiscal year 2014 was 18 percent. The weighted average of the discount rates used during the fiscal year 2013 was 13 percent. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration payable are forecasted earnings. Significant changes in forecasted earnings would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. At March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, the fair market value of acquisition-related contingent consideration totaled $4 million and $43 million, respectively, compared to a maximum potential payout of $10 million and $566 million, respectively. (c)The change in fair value is reported as acquisition-related contingent consideration in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. (d)During fiscal year 2014, we made payments totaling $4 million to settle certain performance milestones achieved in connection with one of our acquisitions. During fiscal year 2013, we made payments totaling $5 million to settle certain performance milestones achieved in connection with two of our acquisitions.Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring BasisDuring fiscal year 2014, our assets that were measured and recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the related impairments on those assets were as follows (in millions):   Fair Value Measurements Using   Net CarryingValue as ofMarch 31, 2014 Quoted Prices inActive Markets for Identical Assets SignificantOther Observable Inputs SignificantUnobservableInputs Total Impairments  for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2014 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Assets         Royalty-based asset$— $— $— $— $17Total impairments recorded for non-recurring measurements on assets held as of March 31, 2014       $17During fiscal year 2014, we became aware of facts and circumstances that indicated that the carrying value of one of our royalty-based assets was not recoverable.
