the number of shares actually issued , if any , varies depending on our stock price at the end of the three-year vesting period compared to pre-established target stock prices .
we measure the fair value of the sva unit on the grant date using a monte carlo simulation model .
the model utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award grant and calculates the fair value of the award .
expected volatilities utilized in the model are based on implied volatilities from traded options on our stock , historical volatility of our stock price , and other factors .
similarly , the dividend yield is based on historical experience and our estimate of future dividend yields .
the risk-free interest rate is derived from the u.s .
treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant .
the weighted-average fair values of the sva units granted during the years ended december 31 , 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 were $ 48.51 , $ 66.25 , and $ 48.68 , respectively , determined using the following assumptions: .
