| Non-marketable Equity Securities Our non-marketable equity securities are investments in privately-held companies without readily determinable fair values. The following table summarizes our non-marketable equity securities that were measured using measurement alternative and equity method (in millions): | | | | | | | | | | | | | December 31, | | 2022 | | 2021 | | Non-marketable equity securities under measurement alternative: | | | | | Initial cost | $ | 6,388 | | $ | 6,480 | | Cumulative upward adjustments | 293 | | 311 | | Cumulative impairment/downward adjustments | (497) | | (50) | | Carrying value | 6,184 | | 6,741 | | Non-marketable equity securities under equity method | 17 | | 34 | | Total | $ | 6,201 | | $ | 6,775 |
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded $447 million of impairment and downward adjustments on our non-marketable equity securities that were measured using measurement alternative, which includes the impairment of our equity investment in Giphy due to a regulatory decision announced by the United Kingdom Competition and Markets Authority in October 2022.
