item 7a. quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk (amounts in millions) in the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risks related to interest rates, foreign currency rates and certain balance sheet items. from time to time, we use derivative instruments, pursuant to established guidelines and policies, to manage some portion of these risks. derivative instruments utilized in our hedging activities are viewed as risk management tools and are not used for trading or speculative purposes. interest rates our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the fair market value and cash flows of our debt obligations. the majority of our debt (approximately 89% (89%) and 91% (91%) as of december 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively) bears interest at fixed rates. we do have debt with variable interest rates, but a 10% (10%) increase or decrease in interest rates would not be material to our interest expense or cash flows. the fair market value of our debt is sensitive to changes in interest rates, and the impact of a 10% (10%) change in interest rates is summarized below. increase/ (decrease) in fair market value as of december 31, 10% (10%) increase in interest rates 10% (10%) decrease in interest rates.
as of december 31, | increase/ (decrease) in fair market value 10% (10%) increasein interest rates | increase/ (decrease) in fair market value 10% (10%) decreasein interest rates
2015 | $-33.7 (33.7) | $34.7
2014 | -35.5 (35.5) | 36.6
we have used interest rate swaps for risk management purposes to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates. we do not have any interest rate swaps outstanding as of december 31, 2015. we had $1509.7 of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of december 31, 2015 that we generally invest in conservative, short-term bank deposits or securities. the interest income generated from these investments is subject to both domestic and foreign interest rate movements. during 2015 and 2014, we had interest income of $22.8 and $27.4, respectively. based on our 2015 results, a 100-basis-point increase or decrease in interest rates would affect our interest income by approximately $15.0, assuming that all cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are impacted in the same manner and balances remain constant from year-end 2015 levels. foreign currency rates we are subject to translation and transaction risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. since we report revenues and expenses in u.s. dollars, changes in exchange rates may either positively or negatively affect our consolidated revenues and expenses (as expressed in u.s. dollars) from foreign operations. the primary foreign currencies that impacted our results during 2015 included the australian dollar, brazilian real, british pound sterling and euro. based on 2015 exchange rates and operating results, if the u.s. dollar were to strengthen or weaken by 10% (10%), we currently estimate operating income would decrease or increase approximately 4% (4%), assuming that all currencies are impacted in the same manner and our international revenue and expenses remain constant at 2015 levels. the functional currency of our foreign operations is generally their respective local currency. assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period presented. the resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, in the stockholders 2019 equity section of our consolidated balance sheets. our foreign subsidiaries generally collect revenues and pay expenses in their functional currency, mitigating transaction risk. however, certain subsidiaries may enter into transactions in currencies other than their functional currency. assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are susceptible to movements in foreign currency until final settlement. currency transaction gains or losses primarily arising from transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are included in office and general expenses. we regularly review our foreign exchange exposures that may have a material impact on our business and from time to time use foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of potential adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates arising from these exposures. we do not enter into foreign exchange contracts or other derivatives for speculative purposes..
what was the change in the interest income from 2014 to 2015? 4.6
and how much does this change represent in relation to that interest income in 2014? 0.16788
how much is that in percentage?

1 reflects net income adjusted primarily for depreciation and amortization of fixed assets and intangible assets, amortization of restricted stock and other non-cash compensation, non-cash (gain) loss related to early extinguishment of debt, losses on sales of businesses and deferred income taxes. 2 reflects changes in accounts receivable, expenditures billable to clients, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. operating activities net cash provided by operating activities during 2015 was $674.0, which was an improvement of $4.5 as compared to 2014, primarily as a result of an improvement in working capital usage of $13.6. due to the seasonality of our business, we typically generate cash from working capital in the second half of a year and use cash from working capital in the first half of a year, with the largest impacts in the first and fourth quarters. our net working capital usage in 2015 was primarily attributable to our media businesses. net cash provided by operating activities during 2014 was $669.5, which was an improvement of $76.6 as compared to 2013, primarily as a result of an increase in net income, offset by an increase in working capital usage of $121.5. our net working capital usage in 2014 was impacted by our media businesses. the timing of media buying on behalf of our clients affects our working capital and operating cash flow. in most of our businesses, our agencies enter into commitments to pay production and media costs on behalf of clients. to the extent possible, we pay production and media charges after we have received funds from our clients. the amounts involved substantially exceed our revenues and primarily affect the level of accounts receivable, expenditures billable to clients, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. our assets include both cash received and accounts receivable from clients for these pass-through arrangements, while our liabilities include amounts owed on behalf of clients to media and production suppliers. our accrued liabilities are also affected by the timing of certain other payments. for example, while annual cash incentive awards are accrued throughout the year, they are generally paid during the first quarter of the subsequent year. investing activities net cash used in investing activities during 2015 primarily related to payments for capital expenditures of $161.1, largely attributable to purchases of leasehold improvements and computer hardware. net cash used in investing activities during 2014 primarily related to payments for capital expenditures and acquisitions. capital expenditures of $148.7 related primarily to computer hardware and software and leasehold improvements. we made payments of $67.8 related to acquisitions completed during 2014, net of cash acquired..

the aes corporation notes to consolidated financial statements 2014 (continued) december 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 the following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits for the periods indicated (in millions):.
december 31, | 2016 | 2015 | 2014
balance at january 1 | $373 | $394 | $392
additions for current year tax positions | 8 | 7 | 7
additions for tax positions of prior years | 1 | 12 | 14
reductions for tax positions of prior years | -1 (1) | -7 (7) | -2 (2)

balance at december 31 | $369 | $373 | $394
the company and certain of its subsidiaries are currently under examination by the relevant taxing authorities for various tax years. the company regularly assesses the potential outcome of these examinations in each of the taxing jurisdictions when determining the adequacy of the amount of unrecognized tax benefit recorded. while it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, we believe we have appropriately accrued for our uncertain tax benefits. however, audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements and future events that would impact our previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits and the range of anticipated increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits are subject to significant uncertainty. it is possible that the ultimate outcome of current or future examinations may exceed our provision for current unrecognized tax benefits in amounts that could be material, but cannot be estimated as of december 31, 2016. our effective tax rate and net income in any given future period could therefore be materially impacted. 22. discontinued operations brazil distribution 2014 due to a portfolio evaluation in the first half of 2016, management has decided to pursue a strategic shift of its distribution companies in brazil, aes sul and eletropaulo. the disposal of sul was completed in october 2016. in december 2016, eletropaulo underwent a corporate restructuring which is expected to, among other things, provide more liquidity of its shares. aes is continuing to pursue strategic options for eletropaulo in order to complete its strategic shift to reduce aes 2019 exposure to the brazilian distribution business, including preparation for listing its shares into the novo mercado, which is a listing segment of the brazilian stock exchange with the highest standards of corporate governance. the company executed an agreement for the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary aes sul in june 2016. we have reported the results of operations and financial position of aes sul as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. upon meeting the held-for-sale criteria, the company recognized an after tax loss of $382 million comprised of a pretax impairment charge of $783 million, offset by a tax benefit of $266 million related to the impairment of the sul long lived assets and a tax benefit of $135 million for deferred taxes related to the investment in aes sul. prior to the impairment charge in the second quarter, the carrying value of the aes sul asset group of $1.6 billion was greater than its approximate fair value less costs to sell. however, the impairment charge was limited to the carrying value of the long lived assets of the aes sul disposal group. on october 31, 2016, the company completed the sale of aes sul and received final proceeds less costs to sell of $484 million, excluding contingent consideration. upon disposal of aes sul, we incurred an additional after- tax loss on sale of $737 million. the cumulative impact to earnings of the impairment and loss on sale was $1.1 billion. this includes the reclassification of approximately $1 billion of cumulative translation losses, resulting in a net reduction to the company 2019s stockholders 2019 equity of $92 million. sul 2019s pretax loss attributable to aes for the years ended december 31, 2016 and 2015 was $1.4 billion and $32 million, respectively. sul 2019s pretax gain attributable to aes for the year ended december 31, 2014 was $133 million. prior to its classification as discontinued operations, sul was reported in the brazil sbu reportable segment. as discussed in note 1 2014general and summary of significant accounting policies, effective july 1, 2014, the company prospectively adopted asu no. 2014-08. discontinued operations prior to adoption of asu no. 2014-08 include the results of cameroon, saurashtra and various u.s. wind projects which were each sold in the first half of cameroon 2014 in september 2013, the company executed agreements for the sale of its 56% (56%) equity interests in businesses in cameroon: sonel, an integrated utility, kribi, a gas and light fuel oil plant, and dibamba, a heavy.
what was the total of unrecognized tax benefits in 2015? 373.0
and what was it in 2014? 394.0
by how much, then, did it change over the year? -21.0
and how much did this change represent in relation to the 2014 total, in percentage? -0.0533
and throughout the subsequent year of this period, what was that change in this total?

material impact on the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic benefit costs for a 1% (1%) change in the assumed health care trend rate. for most of the participants in the u.s. plan, aon 2019s liability for future plan cost increases for pre-65 and medical supplement plan coverage is limited to 5% (5%) per annum. because of this cap, net employer trend rates for these plans are effectively limited to 5% (5%) per year in the future. during 2007, aon recognized a plan amendment which phases out post-65 retiree coverage in its u.s. plan over the next three years. the impact of this amendment on net periodic benefit cost is being recognized over the average remaining service life of the employees. 14. stock compensation plans the following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized in continuing operations in the consolidated statements of income in compensation and benefits (in millions):.
years ended december 31 | 2010 | 2009 | 2008
rsus | $138 | $124 | $132
performance plans | 62 | 60 | 67
stock options | 17 | 21 | 24
employee stock purchase plans | 4 | 4 | 3
total stock-based compensation expense | 221 | 209 | 226
tax benefit | 75 | 68 | 82
stock-based compensation expense net of tax | $146 | $141 | $144
during 2009, the company converted its stock administration system to a new service provider. in connection with this conversion, a reconciliation of the methodologies and estimates utilized was performed, which resulted in a $12 million reduction of expense for the year ended december 31, 2009. stock awards stock awards, in the form of rsus, are granted to certain employees and consist of both performance-based and service-based rsus. service-based awards generally vest between three and ten years from the date of grant. the fair value of service-based awards is based upon the market value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. with certain limited exceptions, any break in continuous employment will cause the forfeiture of all unvested awards. compensation expense associated with stock awards is recognized over the service period. dividend equivalents are paid on certain service-based rsus, based on the initial grant amount. performance-based rsus have been granted to certain employees. vesting of these awards is contingent upon meeting various individual, divisional or company-wide performance conditions, including revenue generation or growth in revenue, pretax income or earnings per share over a one- to five-year period. the performance conditions are not considered in the determination of the grant date fair value for these awards. the fair value of performance-based awards is based upon the market price of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. compensation expense is recognized over the performance period, and in certain cases an additional vesting period, based on management 2019s estimate of the number of units expected to vest. compensation expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of shares paid out at the end of the programs. the actual payout of shares under these performance- based plans may range from 0-200% (0-200%) of the number of units granted, based on the plan. dividend equivalents are generally not paid on the performance-based rsus. during 2010, the company granted approximately 1.6 million shares in connection with the completion of the 2007 leadership performance plan (2018 2018lpp 2019 2019) cycle and 84000 shares related to other performance plans. during 2010, 2009 and 2008, the company granted approximately 3.5 million.
what was the difference in total stock-based compensation expense between 2009 and 2010? 12.0
and the specific value for 2009 again?

(a) includes approximately $306 million, $44 million, $60 million, $100 million, and $246 million of home equity lines of credit with balloon payments with draw periods scheduled to end in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016 and thereafter, respectively. we view home equity lines of credit where borrowers are paying principal and interest under the draw period as less risky than those where the borrowers are paying interest only, as these borrowers have a demonstrated ability to make some level of principal and interest payments. based upon outstanding balances, and excluding purchased impaired loans, at december 31, 2011, for home equity lines of credit for which the borrower can no longer draw (e.g., draw period has ended or borrowing privileges have been terminated), approximately 4.32% (4.32%) were 30-89 days past due and approximately 5.57% (5.57%) were greater than or equal to 90 days past due. generally, when a borrower becomes 60 days past due, we terminate borrowing privileges, and those privileges are not subsequently reinstated. at that point, we continue our collection/recovery processes, which may include a loss mitigation loan modification resulting in a loan that is classified as a tdr. see note 5 asset quality and allowances for loan and lease losses and unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report for additional information. loan modifications and troubled debt restructurings consumer loan modifications we modify loans under government and pnc-developed programs based upon our commitment to help eligible homeowners and borrowers avoid foreclosure, where appropriate. initially, a borrower is evaluated for a modification under a government program. if a borrower does not qualify under a government program, the borrower is then evaluated under a pnc program. our programs utilize both temporary and permanent modifications and typically reduce the interest rate, extend the term and/or defer principal. temporary and permanent modifications under programs involving a change to loan terms are generally classified as tdrs. further, certain payment plans and trial payment arrangements which do not include a contractual change to loan terms may be classified as tdrs. additional detail on tdrs is discussed below as well as in note 5 asset quality and allowances for loan and lease losses and unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report. a temporary modification, with a term between three and 60 months, involves a change in original loan terms for a period of time and reverts to the original loan terms as of a specific date or the occurrence of an event, such as a failure to pay in accordance with the terms of the modification. typically, these modifications are for a period of up to 24 months after which the interest rate reverts to the original loan rate. a permanent modification, with a term greater than 60 months, is a modification in which the terms of the original loan are changed. permanent modifications primarily include the government-created home affordable modification program (hamp) or pnc-developed hamp-like modification programs. for consumer loan programs, such as residential mortgages and home equity loans and lines, we will enter into a temporary modification when the borrower has indicated a temporary hardship and a willingness to bring current the delinquent loan balance. examples of this situation often include delinquency due to illness or death in the family, or a loss of employment. permanent modifications are entered into when it is confirmed that the borrower does not possess the income necessary to continue making loan payments at the current amount, but our expectation is that payments at lower amounts can be made. residential mortgage and home equity loans and lines have been modified with changes in terms for up to 60 months, although the majority involve periods of three to 24 months. we also monitor the success rates and delinquency status of our loan modification programs to assess their effectiveness in serving our customers 2019 needs while mitigating credit losses. the following tables provide the number of accounts and unpaid principal balance of modified consumer real estate related loans as well as the number of accounts and unpaid principal balance of modified loans that were 60 days or more past due as of six months, nine months and twelve months after the modification date. 78 the pnc financial services group, inc. 2013 form 10-k.

transaction and commercial issues in many of our businesses. these skills are a valuable resource as we monitor regulatory and tariff schemes to determine our capital budgeting needs and integrate acquisitions. the company expects to realize cost reduction and performance improvement benefits in both earnings and cash flows; however, there can be no assurance that the reductions and improvements will continue and our inability to sustain the reductions and improvements may result in less than expected earnings and cash flows in 2004 and beyond. asset sales during 2003, we continued the initiative to sell all or part of certain of the company 2019s subsidiaries. this initiative was designed to decrease the company 2019s dependence on access to capital markets and improve the strength of our balance sheet by reducing financial leverage and improving liquidity. the following chart details the asset sales that were closed during 2003. sales proceeds project name date completed (in millions) location.

the company continues to evaluate its portfolio and business performance and may decide to dispose of additional businesses in the future. however given the improvements in our liquidity there will be a lower emphasis placed on asset sales in the future for purposes of improving liquidity and strengthening the balance sheet. for any sales that happen in the future, there can be no guarantee that the proceeds from such sale transactions will cover the entire investment in the subsidiaries. depending on which businesses are eventually sold, the entire or partial sale of any business may change the current financial characteristics of the company 2019s portfolio and results of operations. furthermore future sales may impact the amount of recurring earnings and cash flows the company would expect to achieve. subsidiary restructuring during 2003, we completed and initiated restructuring transactions for several of our south american businesses. the efforts are focused on improving the businesses long-term prospects for generating acceptable returns on invested capital or extending short-term debt maturities. businesses impacted include eletropaulo, tiete, uruguaiana and sul in brazil and gener in chile. brazil eletropaulo. aes has owned an interest in eletropaulo since april 1998, when the company was privatized. in february 2002 aes acquired a controlling interest in the business and as a consequence started to consolidate it. aes financed a significant portion of the acquisition of eletropaulo, including both common and preferred shares, through loans and deferred purchase price financing arrangements provided by the brazilian national development bank 2014 (2018 2018bndes 2019 2019), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, bndes participac 0327o 0303es s.a.

(1) does not include stores that opened as relocations of previously existing stores within the same general market area or substantial renovations of stores. store technology. our store-based information systems are comprised of a proprietary and integrated point of sale, electronic parts catalog, or epc, and store-level inventory management system (collectively "store system"). information maintained by our store system is used to formulate pricing, marketing and merchandising strategies and to replenish inventory accurately and rapidly. our fully integrated system enables our store team members to assist our customers in their parts selection and ordering based on the year, make, model and engine type of their vehicles. our store system provides real-time inventory tracking at the store level allowing store team members to check the quantity of on-hand inventory for any sku, adjust stock levels for select items for store specific events, automatically process returns and defective merchandise, designate skus for cycle counts and track merchandise transfers. if a hard-to-find part or accessory is not available at one of our stores, the store system can determine whether the part is carried and in-stock through our hub or pdq ae networks or can be ordered directly from one of our vendors. available parts and accessories are then ordered electronically from another store, hub, pdq ae or directly from the vendor with immediate confirmation of price, availability and estimated delivery time. our centrally-based epc data management system enables us to reduce the time needed to (i) exchange data with our vendors and (ii) catalog and deliver updated, accurate parts information. we also support our store operations with additional proprietary systems and customer driven labor scheduling capabilities. all of these systems are tightly integrated and provide real-time, comprehensive information to store personnel, resulting in improved customer service levels, team member productivity and in-stock availability. we plan to start rolling out a new and enhanced epc in fiscal 2013 which is expected to simplify and improve the customer experience. among the improvements is a more efficient way to systematically identify add-on sales to ensure our customers have what they need to complete their automotive repair project. store support center merchandising. purchasing for virtually all of the merchandise for our stores is handled by our merchandise teams located in three primary locations: 2022 store support center in roanoke, virginia; 2022 regional office in minneapolis, minnesota; and 2022 global sourcing office in taipei, taiwan. our roanoke team is primarily responsible for the parts categories and our minnesota team is primarily responsible for accessories, oil and chemicals. our global sourcing team works closely with both teams. in fiscal 2012, we purchased merchandise from approximately 450 vendors, with no single vendor accounting for more than 9% (9%) of purchases. our purchasing strategy involves negotiating agreements with most of our vendors to purchase merchandise over a specified period of time along with other terms, including pricing, payment terms and volume. the merchandising team has developed strong vendor relationships in the industry and, in a collaborative effort with our vendor partners, utilizes a category management process where we manage the mix of our product offerings to meet customer demand. we believe this process, which develops a customer-focused business plan for each merchandise category, and our global sourcing operation are critical to improving comparable store sales, gross margin and inventory productivity..

2011 compared to 2010 mst 2019s net sales for 2011 decreased $311 million, or 4% (4%), compared to 2010. the decrease was attributable to decreased volume of approximately $390 million for certain ship and aviation system programs (primarily maritime patrol aircraft and ptds) and approximately $75 million for training and logistics solutions programs. partially offsetting these decreases was higher sales of about $165 million from production on the lcs program. mst 2019s operating profit for 2011 decreased $68 million, or 10% (10%), compared to 2010. the decrease was attributable to decreased operating profit of approximately $55 million as a result of increased reserves for contract cost matters on various ship and aviation system programs (including the terminated presidential helicopter program) and approximately $40 million due to lower volume and increased reserves on training and logistics solutions. partially offsetting these decreases was higher operating profit of approximately $30 million in 2011 primarily due to the recognition of reserves on certain undersea systems programs in 2010. adjustments not related to volume, including net profit rate adjustments described above, were approximately $55 million lower in 2011 compared to 2010. backlog backlog increased in 2012 compared to 2011 mainly due to increased orders on ship and aviation system programs (primarily mh-60 and lcs), partially offset decreased orders and higher sales volume on integrated warfare systems and sensors programs (primarily aegis). backlog decreased slightly in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to higher sales volume on various integrated warfare systems and sensors programs. trends we expect mst 2019s net sales to decline in 2013 in the low single digit percentage range as compared to 2012 due to the completion of ptds deliveries in 2012 and expected lower volume on training services programs. operating profit and margin are expected to increase slightly from 2012 levels primarily due to anticipated improved contract performance. space systems our space systems business segment is engaged in the research and development, design, engineering, and production of satellites, strategic and defensive missile systems, and space transportation systems. space systems is also responsible for various classified systems and services in support of vital national security systems. space systems 2019 major programs include the space-based infrared system (sbirs), advanced extremely high frequency (aehf) system, mobile user objective system (muos), global positioning satellite (gps) iii system, geostationary operational environmental satellite r-series (goes-r), trident ii d5 fleet ballistic missile, and orion. operating results for our space systems business segment include our equity interests in united launch alliance (ula), which provides expendable launch services for the u.s. government, united space alliance (usa), which provided processing activities for the space shuttle program and is winding down following the completion of the last space shuttle mission in 2011, and a joint venture that manages the u.k. 2019s atomic weapons establishment program. space systems 2019 operating results included the following (in millions):.

2012 compared to 2011 space systems 2019 net sales for 2012 increased $186 million, or 2% (2%), compared to 2011. the increase was attributable to higher net sales of approximately $150 million due to increased commercial satellite deliveries (two commercial satellites delivered in 2012 compared to one during 2011); about $125 million from the orion program due to higher volume and an increase in risk retirements; and approximately $70 million from increased volume on various strategic and defensive missile programs. partially offsetting the increases were lower net sales of approximately $105 million from certain government satellite programs (primarily sbirs and muos) as a result of decreased volume and a decline in risk retirements; and about $55 million from the nasa external tank program, which ended in connection with the completion of the space shuttle program in 2011..

at december 31, 2015 and 2014, we had a modest working capital surplus. this reflects a strong cash position that provides enhanced liquidity in an uncertain economic environment. in addition, we believe we have adequate access to capital markets to meet any foreseeable cash requirements, and we have sufficient financial capacity to satisfy our current liabilities. cash flows.
millions | 2015 | 2014 | 2013
cash provided by operating activities | $7344 | $7385 | $6823
cash used in investing activities | -4476 (4476) | -4249 (4249) | -3405 (3405)
cash used in financing activities | -3063 (3063) | -2982 (2982) | -3049 (3049)
net change in cash and cash equivalents | $-195 (195) | $154 | $369
operating activities cash provided by operating activities decreased in 2015 compared to 2014 due to lower net income and changes in working capital, partially offset by the timing of tax payments. federal tax law provided for 100% (100%) bonus depreciation for qualified investments made during 2011 and 50% (50%) bonus depreciation for qualified investments made during 2012-2013. as a result, the company deferred a substantial portion of its 2011-2013 income tax expense, contributing to the positive operating cash flow in those years. congress extended 50% (50%) bonus depreciation for 2014, but this extension occurred in december, and the related benefit was realized in 2015, rather than 2014. similarly, in december of 2015, congress extended bonus depreciation through 2019, which delayed the benefit of 2015 bonus depreciation into 2016. bonus depreciation will be at a rate of 50% (50%) for 2015, 2016 and 2017, 40% (40%) for 2018 and 30% (30%) for 2019. higher net income in 2014 increased cash provided by operating activities compared to 2013, despite higher income tax payments. 2014 income tax payments were higher than 2013 primarily due to higher income, but also because we paid taxes previously deferred by bonus depreciation. investing activities higher capital investments in locomotives and freight cars, including $327 million in early lease buyouts, which we exercised due to favorable economic terms and market conditions, drove the increase in cash used in investing activities in 2015 compared to 2014. higher capital investments, including the early buyout of the long-term operating lease of our headquarters building for approximately $261 million, drove the increase in cash used in investing activities in 2014 compared to 2013. significant investments also were made for new locomotives, freight cars and containers, and capacity and commercial facility projects. capital investments in 2014 also included $99 million for the early buyout of locomotives and freight cars under long-term operating leases, which we exercised due to favorable economic terms and market conditions..

2011 compared to 2010 mst 2019s net sales for 2011 decreased $311 million, or 4% (4%), compared to 2010. the decrease was attributable to decreased volume of approximately $390 million for certain ship and aviation system programs (primarily maritime patrol aircraft and ptds) and approximately $75 million for training and logistics solutions programs. partially offsetting these decreases was higher sales of about $165 million from production on the lcs program. mst 2019s operating profit for 2011 decreased $68 million, or 10% (10%), compared to 2010. the decrease was attributable to decreased operating profit of approximately $55 million as a result of increased reserves for contract cost matters on various ship and aviation system programs (including the terminated presidential helicopter program) and approximately $40 million due to lower volume and increased reserves on training and logistics solutions. partially offsetting these decreases was higher operating profit of approximately $30 million in 2011 primarily due to the recognition of reserves on certain undersea systems programs in 2010. adjustments not related to volume, including net profit rate adjustments described above, were approximately $55 million lower in 2011 compared to 2010. backlog backlog increased in 2012 compared to 2011 mainly due to increased orders on ship and aviation system programs (primarily mh-60 and lcs), partially offset decreased orders and higher sales volume on integrated warfare systems and sensors programs (primarily aegis). backlog decreased slightly in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to higher sales volume on various integrated warfare systems and sensors programs. trends we expect mst 2019s net sales to decline in 2013 in the low single digit percentage range as compared to 2012 due to the completion of ptds deliveries in 2012 and expected lower volume on training services programs. operating profit and margin are expected to increase slightly from 2012 levels primarily due to anticipated improved contract performance. space systems our space systems business segment is engaged in the research and development, design, engineering, and production of satellites, strategic and defensive missile systems, and space transportation systems. space systems is also responsible for various classified systems and services in support of vital national security systems. space systems 2019 major programs include the space-based infrared system (sbirs), advanced extremely high frequency (aehf) system, mobile user objective system (muos), global positioning satellite (gps) iii system, geostationary operational environmental satellite r-series (goes-r), trident ii d5 fleet ballistic missile, and orion. operating results for our space systems business segment include our equity interests in united launch alliance (ula), which provides expendable launch services for the u.s. government, united space alliance (usa), which provided processing activities for the space shuttle program and is winding down following the completion of the last space shuttle mission in 2011, and a joint venture that manages the u.k. 2019s atomic weapons establishment program. space systems 2019 operating results included the following (in millions):.

2012 compared to 2011 space systems 2019 net sales for 2012 increased $186 million, or 2% (2%), compared to 2011. the increase was attributable to higher net sales of approximately $150 million due to increased commercial satellite deliveries (two commercial satellites delivered in 2012 compared to one during 2011); about $125 million from the orion program due to higher volume and an increase in risk retirements; and approximately $70 million from increased volume on various strategic and defensive missile programs. partially offsetting the increases were lower net sales of approximately $105 million from certain government satellite programs (primarily sbirs and muos) as a result of decreased volume and a decline in risk retirements; and about $55 million from the nasa external tank program, which ended in connection with the completion of the space shuttle program in 2011..

the aes corporation notes to consolidated financial statements 2014 (continued) december 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 was dispatched starting in february 2018. aes puerto rico continues to be the lowest cost and epa compliant energy provider in puerto rico. therefore, we expect aes puerto rico to continue to be a critical supplier to prepa. starting prior to the hurricanes, prepa has been facing economic challenges that could impact the company, and on july 2, 2017, filed for bankruptcy under title iii. as a result of the bankruptcy filing, aes puerto rico and aes ilumina 2019s non-recourse debt of $365 million and $36 million, respectively, is in default and has been classified as current as of december 31, 2017. in november 2017, aes puerto rico signed a forbearance and standstill agreement with its lenders to prevent the lenders from taking any action against the company due to the default events. this agreement will expire on march 22, 2018. the company's receivable balances in puerto rico as of december 31, 2017 totaled $86 million, of which $53 million was overdue. after the filing of title iii protection, and up until the disruption caused by the hurricanes, aes in puerto rico was collecting the overdue amounts from prepa in line with historic payment patterns. considering the information available as of the filing date, management believes the carrying amount of our assets in puerto rico of $627 million is recoverable as of december 31, 2017 and no reserve on the receivables is required. foreign currency risks 2014 aes operates businesses in many foreign countries and such operations could be impacted by significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. fluctuations in currency exchange rate between u.s. dollar and the following currencies could create significant fluctuations in earnings and cash flows: the argentine peso, the brazilian real, the dominican republic peso, the euro, the chilean peso, the colombian peso, and the philippine peso. concentrations 2014 due to the geographical diversity of its operations, the company does not have any significant concentration of customers or sources of fuel supply. several of the company's generation businesses rely on ppas with one or a limited number of customers for the majority of, and in some cases all of, the relevant businesses' output over the term of the ppas. however, no single customer accounted for 10% (10%) or more of total revenue in 2017, 2016 or 2015. the cash flows and results of operations of our businesses depend on the credit quality of our customers and the continued ability of our customers and suppliers to meet their obligations under ppas and fuel supply agreements. if a substantial portion of the company's long-term ppas and/or fuel supply were modified or terminated, the company would be adversely affected to the extent that it would be unable to replace such contracts at equally favorable terms. 26. related party transactions certain of our businesses in panama and the dominican republic are partially owned by governments either directly or through state-owned institutions. in the ordinary course of business, these businesses enter into energy purchase and sale transactions, and transmission agreements with other state-owned institutions which are controlled by such governments. at two of our generation businesses in mexico, the offtakers exercise significant influence, but not control, through representation on these businesses' boards of directors. these offtakers are also required to hold a nominal ownership interest in such businesses. in chile, we provide capacity and energy under contractual arrangements to our investment which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. additionally, the company provides certain support and management services to several of its affiliates under various agreements. the company's consolidated statements of operations included the following transactions with related parties for the periods indicated (in millions):.

in 2006, our board of directors approved a projected $3.2 billion expansion of our garyville, louisiana refinery by 180 mbpd to 425 mbpd, which will increase our total refining capacity to 1.154 million barrels per day (2018 2018mmbpd 2019 2019). we recently received air permit approval from the louisiana department of environmental quality for this project and construction is expected to begin in mid-2007, with startup planned for the fourth quarter of 2009. we have also commenced front-end engineering and design (2018 2018feed 2019 2019) for a potential heavy oil upgrading project at our detroit refinery, which would allow us to process increased volumes of canadian oil sands production, and are undertaking a feasibility study for a similar upgrading project at our catlettsburg refinery. marketing we are a supplier of gasoline and distillates to resellers and consumers within our market area in the midwest, the upper great plains and southeastern united states. in 2006, our refined product sales volumes (excluding matching buy/sell transactions) totaled 21.5 billion gallons, or 1.401 mmbpd. the average sales price of our refined products in aggregate was $77.76 per barrel for 2006. the following table sets forth our refined product sales by product group and our average sales price for each of the last three years. refined product sales (thousands of barrels per day) 2006 2005 2004.

(a) includes matching buy/sell volumes of 24 mbpd, 77 mbpd and 71 mbpd in 2006, 2005 and 2004. on april 1, 2006, we changed our accounting for matching buy/sell arrangements as a result of a new accounting standard. this change resulted in lower refined product sales volumes for the remainder of 2006 than would have been reported under the previous accounting practices. see note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. the wholesale distribution of petroleum products to private brand marketers and to large commercial and industrial consumers and sales in the spot market accounted for 71 percent of our refined product sales volumes in 2006. we sold 52 percent of our gasoline volumes and 89 percent of our distillates volumes on a wholesale or spot market basis. half of our propane is sold into the home heating market, with the balance being purchased by industrial consumers. propylene, cumene, aromatics, aliphatics, and sulfur are domestically marketed to customers in the chemical industry. base lube oils, maleic anhydride, slack wax, extract and pitch are sold throughout the united states and canada, with pitch products also being exported worldwide. we market asphalt through owned and leased terminals throughout the midwest, the upper great plains and southeastern united states. our customer base includes approximately 800 asphalt-paving contractors, government entities (states, counties, cities and townships) and asphalt roofing shingle manufacturers. we blended 35 mbpd of ethanol into gasoline in 2006. in 2005 and 2004, we blended 35 mbpd and 30 mbpd of ethanol. the expansion or contraction of our ethanol blending program will be driven by the economics of the ethanol supply and changes in government regulations. we sell reformulated gasoline in parts of our marketing territory, primarily chicago, illinois; louisville, kentucky; northern kentucky; and milwaukee, wisconsin, and we sell low-vapor-pressure gasoline in nine states. as of december 31, 2006, we supplied petroleum products to about 4200 marathon branded retail outlets located primarily in ohio, michigan, indiana, kentucky and illinois. branded retail outlets are also located in florida, georgia, minnesota, wisconsin, west virginia, tennessee, virginia, north carolina, pennsylvania, alabama and south carolina. sales to marathon brand jobbers and dealers accounted for 14 percent of our refined product sales volumes in 2006. ssa sells gasoline and diesel fuel through company-operated retail outlets. sales of refined products through these ssa retail outlets accounted for 15 percent of our refined product sales volumes in 2006. as of december 31, 2006, ssa had 1636 retail outlets in nine states that sold petroleum products and convenience store merchandise and services, primarily under the brand names 2018 2018speedway 2019 2019 and 2018 2018superamerica. 2019 2019 ssa 2019s revenues from the sale of non-petroleum merchandise totaled $2.7 billion in 2006, compared with $2.5 billion in 2005. profit levels from the sale.

entergy texas, inc. management's financial discussion and analysis fuel and purchased power expenses increased primarily due to an increase in power purchases as a result of the purchased power agreements between entergy gulf states louisiana and entergy texas and an increase in the average market prices of purchased power and natural gas, substantially offset by a decrease in deferred fuel expense as a result of decreased recovery from customers of fuel costs. other regulatory charges increased primarily due to an increase of $6.9 million in the recovery of bond expenses related to the securitization bonds. the recovery became effective july 2007. see note 5 to the financial statements for additional information regarding the securitization bonds. 2007 compared to 2006 net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory charges. following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing 2007 to 2006. amount (in millions).
- | amount (in millions)
2006 net revenue | $403.3
purchased power capacity | 13.1
securitization transition charge | 9.9
volume/weather | 9.7
transmission revenue | 6.1
base revenue | 2.6
other | -2.4 (2.4)
2007 net revenue | $442.3
the purchased power capacity variance is due to changes in the purchased power capacity costs included in the calculation in 2007 compared to 2006 used to bill generation costs between entergy texas and entergy gulf states louisiana. the securitization transition charge variance is due to the issuance of securitization bonds. as discussed above, in june 2007, egsrf i, a company wholly-owned and consolidated by entergy texas, issued securitization bonds and with the proceeds purchased from entergy texas the transition property, which is the right to recover from customers through a transition charge amounts sufficient to service the securitization bonds. see note 5 to the financial statements herein for details of the securitization bond issuance. the volume/weather variance is due to increased electricity usage on billed retail sales, including the effects of more favorable weather in 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. the increase is also due to an increase in usage during the unbilled sales period. retail electricity usage increased a total of 139 gwh in all sectors. see "critical accounting estimates" below and note 1 to the financial statements for further discussion of the accounting for unbilled revenues. the transmission revenue variance is due to an increase in rates effective june 2007 and new transmission customers in late 2006. the base revenue variance is due to the transition to competition rider that began in march 2006. refer to note 2 to the financial statements for further discussion of the rate increase. gross operating revenues, fuel and purchased power expenses, and other regulatory charges gross operating revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease of $179 million in fuel cost recovery revenues due to lower fuel rates and fuel refunds. the decrease was partially offset by the $39 million increase in net revenue described above and an increase of $44 million in wholesale revenues, including $30 million from the system agreement cost equalization payments from entergy arkansas. the receipt of such payments is being.

when we purchase an asset, we capitalize all costs necessary to make the asset ready for its intended use. however, many of our assets are self-constructed. a large portion of our capital expenditures is for track structure expansion (capacity projects) and replacement (program projects), which is typically performed by our employees. approximately 13% (13%) of our full-time equivalent employees are dedicated to the construction of capital assets. costs that are directly attributable or overhead costs that relate directly to capital projects are capitalized. direct costs that are capitalized as part of self-constructed assets include material, labor, and work equipment. indirect costs are capitalized if they clearly relate to the construction of the asset. these costs are allocated using appropriate statistical bases. the capitalization of indirect costs is consistent with fasb statement no. 67, accounting for costs and initial rental operations of real estate projects. general and administrative expenditures are expensed as incurred. normal repairs and maintenance are also expensed as incurred, while costs incurred that extend the useful life of an asset, improve the safety of our operations or improve operating efficiency are capitalized. assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease. amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease. 10. accounts payable and other current liabilities dec. 31, dec. 31, millions of dollars 2008 2007.

during 2009 we continued to see a soft market, which began in 2007, in our retail brokerage product line. in 2007, we experienced a soft market in many business lines and in many geographic areas. in a 2018 2018soft market, 2019 2019 premium rates flatten or decrease, along with commission revenues, due to increased competition for market share among insurance carriers or increased underwriting capacity. changes in premiums have a direct and potentially material impact on the insurance brokerage industry, as commission revenues are generally based on a percentage of the premiums paid by insureds. prices fell throughout 2007, with the greatest declines seen in large and middle-market accounts. prices continued to decline during 2008, although the rate of decline slowed toward the end of the year. in our reinsurance brokerage product line, pricing overall during 2009 was also down, although during a portion of the year it was flat to up slightly. additionally, beginning in late 2008 and continuing throughout 2009, we faced difficult conditions as a result of unprecedented disruptions in the global economy, the repricing of credit risk and the deterioration of the financial markets. continued volatility and further deterioration in the credit markets have reduced our customers 2019 demand for our retail brokerage and reinsurance brokerage products, which have negatively hurt our operational results. in addition, overall capacity in the industry could decrease if a significant insurer either fails or withdraws from writing insurance coverages that we offer our clients. this failure could reduce our revenues and profitability, since we would no longer have access to certain lines and types of insurance. risk and insurance brokerage services generated approximately 83% (83%) of our consolidated total revenues in 2009. revenues are generated primarily through fees paid by clients, commissions and fees paid by insurance and reinsurance companies, and investment income on funds held on behalf of clients. our revenues vary from quarter to quarter throughout the year as a result of the timing of our clients 2019 policy renewals, the net effect of new and lost business, the timing of services provided to our clients, and the income we earn on investments, which is heavily influenced by short-term interest rates. we operate in a highly competitive industry and compete with many retail insurance brokerage and agency firms, as well as with individual brokers, agents, and direct writers of insurance coverage. specifically, we address the highly specialized product development and risk management needs of commercial enterprises, professional groups, insurance companies, governments, healthcare providers, and non-profit groups, among others; provide affinity products for professional liability, life, disability income, and personal lines for individuals, associations, and businesses; provide reinsurance services to insurance and reinsurance companies and other risk assumption entities by acting as brokers or intermediaries on all classes of reinsurance; provide investment banking products and services, including mergers and acquisitions and other financial advisory services, capital raising, contingent capital financing, insurance-linked securitizations and derivative applications; provide managing underwriting to independent agents and brokers as well as corporate clients; provide actuarial, loss prevention, and administrative services to businesses and consumers; and manage captive insurance companies. in november 2008 we expanded our product offerings through the merger with benfield, a leading independent reinsurance intermediary. benfield products have been integrated with our existing reinsurance products in 2009. in february 2009, we completed the sale of the u.s. operations of cananwill, our premium finance business. in june and july of 2009, we entered into agreements with third parties with respect to our.

net revenues include $3.8 billion in 2017 and $739 million in 2016 related to the sale of rrps, mainly driven by japan. these net revenue amounts include excise taxes billed to customers. excluding excise taxes, net revenues for rrps were $3.6 billion in 2017 and $733 million in 2016. in some jurisdictions, including japan, we are not responsible for collecting excise taxes. in 2017, approximately $0.9 billion of our $3.6 billion in rrp net revenues, excluding excise taxes, were from iqos devices and accessories. excise taxes on products increased by $1.1 billion, due to: 2022 higher excise taxes resulting from changes in retail prices and tax rates ($4.6 billion), partially offset by 2022 favorable currency ($1.9 billion) and 2022 lower excise taxes resulting from volume/mix ($1.6 billion). our cost of sales; marketing, administration and research costs; and operating income were as follows: for the years ended december 31, variance.

cost of sales increased by $1.0 billion, due to: 2022 higher cost of sales resulting from volume/mix ($1.1 billion), partly offset by 2022 lower manufacturing costs ($36 million) and 2022 favorable currency ($30 million). marketing, administration and research costs increased by $320 million, due to: 2022 higher expenses ($570 million, largely reflecting increased investment behind reduced-risk products, predominately in the european union and asia), partly offset by 2022 favorable currency ($250 million). operating income increased by $688 million, due primarily to: 2022 price increases ($1.4 billion), partly offset by 2022 higher marketing, administration and research costs ($570 million) and 2022 unfavorable currency ($157 million). interest expense, net, of $914 million increased by $23 million, due primarily to unfavorably currency and higher average debt levels, partly offset by higher interest income. our effective tax rate increased by 12.8 percentage points to 40.7% (40.7%). the 2017 effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $1.6 billion due to the tax cuts and jobs act. for further details, see item 8, note 11. income taxes to our consolidated financial statements. we are continuing to evaluate the impact that the tax cuts and jobs act will have on our tax liability. based upon our current interpretation of the tax cuts and jobs act, we estimate that our 2018 effective tax rate will be approximately 28% (28%), subject to future regulatory developments and earnings mix by taxing jurisdiction. we are regularly examined by tax authorities around the world, and we are currently under examination in a number of jurisdictions. it is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months certain tax examinations will close, which could result in a change in unrecognized tax benefits along with related interest and penalties. an estimate of any possible change cannot be made at this time. net earnings attributable to pmi of $6.0 billion decreased by $932 million (13.4% (13.4%)). this decrease was due primarily to a higher effective tax rate as discussed above, partly offset by higher operating income. diluted and basic eps of $3.88 decreased by 13.4% (13.4%). excluding.

foreign exchange products | $1.8 | $4.7 | $.3 | $1.8 | $4.0 | $.7
interest-rate products | 1.1 | 2.4 |.6 | 1.4 | 3.7 |.1
we back-test the estimated one-day var on a daily basis. this information is reviewed and used to confirm that all relevant trading positions are properly modeled. for the years ended december 31, 2008 and 2007, we did not experience any actual trading losses in excess of our end-of-day var estimate. asset and liability management activities the primary objective of asset and liability management is to provide sustainable and growing net interest revenue, or nir, under varying economic environments, while protecting the economic values of our balance sheet assets and liabilities from the adverse effects of changes in interest rates. most of our nir is earned from the investment of deposits generated by our core investment servicing and investment management businesses. we structure our balance sheet assets to generally conform to the characteristics of our balance sheet liabilities, but we manage our overall interest-rate risk position in the context of current and anticipated market conditions and within internally-approved risk guidelines. our overall interest-rate risk position is maintained within a series of policies approved by the board and guidelines established and monitored by alco. our global treasury group has responsibility for managing state street 2019s day-to-day interest-rate risk. to effectively manage the consolidated balance sheet and related nir, global treasury has the authority to take a limited amount of interest-rate risk based on market conditions and its views about the direction of global interest rates over both short-term and long-term time horizons. global treasury manages our exposure to changes in interest rates on a consolidated basis organized into three regional treasury units, north america, europe and asia/pacific, to reflect the growing, global nature of our exposures and to capture the impact of change in regional market environments on our total risk position. our investment activities and our use of derivative financial instruments are the primary tools used in managing interest-rate risk. we invest in financial instruments with currency, repricing, and maturity characteristics we consider appropriate to manage our overall interest-rate risk position. in addition to on-balance sheet assets, we use certain derivatives, primarily interest-rate swaps, to alter the interest-rate characteristics of specific balance sheet assets or liabilities. the use of derivatives is subject to alco-approved guidelines. additional information about our use of derivatives is in note 17 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-k under item 8. as a result of growth in our non-u.s. operations, non-u.s. dollar denominated customer liabilities are a significant portion of our consolidated balance sheet. this growth results in exposure to changes in the shape and level of non-u.s. dollar yield curves, which we include in our consolidated interest-rate risk management process. because no one individual measure can accurately assess all of our exposures to changes in interest rates, we use several quantitative measures in our assessment of current and potential future exposures to changes in interest rates and their impact on net interest revenue and balance sheet values. net interest revenue simulation is the primary tool used in our evaluation of the potential range of possible net interest revenue results that could occur under a variety of interest-rate environments. we also use market valuation and duration analysis to assess changes in the economic value of balance sheet assets and liabilities caused by assumed changes in interest rates. finally, gap analysis 2014the difference between the amount of balance sheet assets and liabilities re-pricing within a specified time period 2014is used as a measurement of our interest-rate risk position..

the following table shows the impact of catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums and the impact of prior period development on our consolidated loss and loss expense ratio for the periods indicated..

loss and loss expense ratio as reported | 59.2% (59.2%) | 58.8% (58.8%) | 60.6% (60.6%)
catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums | (3.2)% (%) | (1.2)% (%) | (4.7)% (%)

large assumed loss portfolio transfers | (0.3)% (%) | (0.8)% (%) | 0.0% (0.0%)
loss and loss expense ratio adjusted | 60.3% (60.3%) | 61.7% (61.7%) | 62.7% (62.7%)
we recorded net pre-tax catastrophe losses of $366 million in 2010 compared with net pre-tax catastrophe losses of $137 million and $567 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively. the catastrophe losses for 2010 were primarily related to weather- related events in the u.s., earthquakes in chile, mexico, and new zealand, and storms in australia and europe. the catastrophe losses for 2009 were primarily related to an earthquake in asia, floods in europe, several weather-related events in the u.s., and a european windstorm. for 2008, the catastrophe losses were primarily related to hurricanes gustav and ike. prior period development arises from changes to loss estimates recognized in the current year that relate to loss reserves first reported in previous calendar years and excludes the effect of losses from the development of earned premium from pre- vious accident years. we experienced $503 million of net favorable prior period development in our p&c segments in 2010. this compares with net favorable prior period development in our p&c segments of $576 million and $814 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively. refer to 201cprior period development 201d for more information. the adjusted loss and loss expense ratio declined in 2010, compared with 2009, primarily due to the impact of the crop settlements, non-recurring premium adjustment and the reduction in assumed loss portfolio business, which is written at higher loss ratios than other types of business. our policy acquisition costs include commissions, premium taxes, underwriting, and other costs that vary with, and are primarily related to, the production of premium. administrative expenses include all other operating costs. our policy acquis- ition cost ratio increased in 2010, compared with 2009. the increase was primarily related to the impact of crop settlements, which generated higher profit-share commissions and a lower adjustment to net premiums earned, as well as the impact of reinstatement premiums expensed in connection with catastrophe activity and changes in business mix. our administrative expense ratio increased in 2010, primarily due to the impact of the crop settlements, reinstatement premiums expensed, and increased costs in our international operations. although the crop settlements generate minimal administrative expenses, they resulted in lower adjustment to net premiums earned in 2010, compared with 2009. administrative expenses in 2010, were partially offset by higher net results generated by our third party claims administration business, esis, the results of which are included within our administrative expenses. esis generated $85 million in net results in 2010, compared with $26 million in 2009. the increase is primarily from non-recurring sources. our policy acquisition cost ratio was stable in 2009, compared with 2008, as increases in our combined insurance operations were offset by more favorable final crop year settlement of profit share commissions. administrative expenses increased in 2009, primarily due to the inclusion of administrative expenses related to combined insurance for the full year and costs associated with new product expansion in our domestic retail operation and in our personal lines business. our effective income tax rate, which we calculate as income tax expense divided by income before income tax, is depend- ent upon the mix of earnings from different jurisdictions with various tax rates. a change in the geographic mix of earnings would change the effective income tax rate. our effective income tax rate was 15 percent in 2010, compared with 17 percent and 24 percent in 2009 and 2008, respectively. the decrease in our effective income tax rate in 2010, was primarily due to a change in the mix of earnings to lower tax-paying jurisdictions, a decrease in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits which was the result of a settlement with the u.s. internal revenue service appeals division regarding federal tax returns for the years 2002-2004, and the recognition of a non-taxable gain related to the acquisition of rain and hail. the 2009 year included a reduction of a deferred tax valuation allowance related to investments. for 2008, our effective income tax rate was adversely impacted by a change in mix of earnings due to the impact of catastrophe losses in lower tax-paying jurisdictions. prior period development the favorable prior period development, inclusive of the life segment, of $512 million during 2010 was the net result of sev- eral underlying favorable and adverse movements. with respect to ace 2019s crop business, ace regularly receives reports from its managing general agent (mga) relating to the previous crop year (s) in subsequent calendar quarters and this typically results.
what was the net favorable prior period development in 2010? 503.0
and what was it in 2008? 814.0
what was, then, the change over the years?

table of contents adobe inc. notes to consolidated financial statements (continued) certain states and foreign jurisdictions to fully utilize available tax credits and other attributes. the deferred tax assets are offset by a valuation allowance to the extent it is more likely than not that they are not expected to be realized. we provide u.s. income taxes on the earnings of foreign subsidiaries unless the subsidiaries 2019 earnings are considered permanently reinvested outside the united states or are exempted from taxation as a result of the new territorial tax system. to the extent that the foreign earnings previously treated as permanently reinvested are repatriated, the related u.s. tax liability may be reduced by any foreign income taxes paid on these earnings. as of november 30, 2018, the cumulative amount of earnings upon which u.s. income taxes have not been provided is approximately $275 million. the unrecognized deferred tax liability for these earnings is approximately $57.8 million. as of november 30, 2018, we have net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $881.1 million for federal and $349.7 million for state. we also have federal, state and foreign tax credit carryforwards of approximately $8.8 million, $189.9 million and $14.9 million, respectively. the net operating loss carryforward assets and tax credits will expire in various years from fiscal 2019 through 2036. the state tax credit carryforwards and a portion of the federal net operating loss carryforwards can be carried forward indefinitely. the net operating loss carryforward assets and certain credits are reduced by the valuation allowance and are subject to an annual limitation under internal revenue code section 382, the carrying amount of which are expected to be fully realized. as of november 30, 2018, a valuation allowance of $174.5 million has been established for certain deferred tax assets related to certain state and foreign assets. for fiscal 2018, the total change in the valuation allowance was $80.9 million. accounting for uncertainty in income taxes during fiscal 2018 and 2017, our aggregate changes in our total gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits are summarized as follows (in thousands):.
- | 2018 | 2017
beginning balance | $172945 | $178413
gross increases in unrecognized tax benefits 2013 prior year tax positions | 16191 | 3680
gross decreases in unrecognized tax benefits 2013 prior year tax positions | -4000 (4000) | -30166 (30166)
gross increases in unrecognized tax benefits 2013 current year tax positions | 60721 | 24927
settlements with taxing authorities | 2014 | -3876 (3876)
lapse of statute of limitations | -45922 (45922) | -8819 (8819)
foreign exchange gains and losses | -3783 (3783) | 8786
ending balance | $196152 | $172945
the combined amount of accrued interest and penalties related to tax positions taken on our tax returns were approximately $24.6 million and $23.6 million for fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively. these amounts were included in long-term income taxes payable in their respective years. we file income tax returns in the united states on a federal basis and in many u.s. state and foreign jurisdictions. we are subject to the continual examination of our income tax returns by the irs and other domestic and foreign tax authorities. our major tax jurisdictions are ireland, california and the united states. for ireland, california and the united states, the earliest fiscal years open for examination are 2008, 2014 and 2015, respectively. we regularly assess the likelihood of outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes and have reserved for potential adjustments that may result from these examinations. we believe such estimates to be reasonable; however, there can be no assurance that the final determination of any of these examinations will not have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial position. the timing of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain as are the amounts and timing of tax payments that are part of any audit settlement process. these events could cause large fluctuations in the balance of short-term and long- term assets, liabilities and income taxes payable. we believe that within the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that either certain audits will conclude or statutes of limitations on certain income tax examination periods will expire, or both. given the uncertainties described above, we can only determine a range of estimated potential effect in underlying unrecognized tax benefits ranging from $0 to approximately $45 million..

our ability to restructure or refinance our debt will depend on the condition of the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. any refinancing of our debt could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our business operations. in addition, any failure to make payments of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness on a timely basis would likely result in a reduction of our credit rating, which could harm our ability to incur additional indebtedness. if our cash flows and available cash are insufficient to meet our debt service obligations, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. we may not be able to consummate those dispositions or to obtain the proceeds that we could realize from them, and these proceeds may not be adequate to meet any debt service obligations then due. item 1b. unresolved staff comments item 2. properties a summary of our significant locations at december 31, 2013 is shown in the following table. all facilities are leased, except for 165000 square feet of our office in alpharetta, georgia. square footage amounts are net of space that has been sublet or part of a facility restructuring..

in the table above: 2030 derivative assets are shown as positive amounts and derivative liabilities are shown as negative amounts. 2030 ranges represent the significant unobservable inputs that were used in the valuation of each type of derivative. 2030 averages represent the arithmetic average of the inputs and are not weighted by the relative fair value or notional of the respective financial instruments. an average greater than the median indicates that the majority of inputs are below the average. for example, the difference between the average and the median for credit spreads and oil spread inputs indicates that the majority of the inputs fall in the lower end of the range. 2030 the ranges, averages and medians of these inputs are not representative of the appropriate inputs to use when calculating the fair value of any one derivative. for example, the highest correlation for interest rate derivatives is appropriate for valuing a specific interest rate derivative but may not be appropriate for valuing any other interest rate derivative. accordingly, the ranges of inputs do not represent uncertainty in, or possible ranges of, fair value measurements of the firm 2019s level 3 derivatives. 2030 interest rates, currencies and equities derivatives are valued using option pricing models, credit derivatives are valued using option pricing, correlation and discounted cash flow models, and commodities derivatives are valued using option pricing and discounted cash flow models. 2030 the fair value of any one instrument may be determined using multiple valuation techniques. for example, option pricing models and discounted cash flows models are typically used together to determine fair value. therefore, the level 3 balance encompasses both of these techniques. 2030 correlation within currencies and equities includes cross- product type correlation. 2030 natural gas spread represents the spread per million british thermal units of natural gas. 2030 oil spread represents the spread per barrel of oil and refined products. range of significant unobservable inputs the following is information about the ranges of significant unobservable inputs used to value the firm 2019s level 3 derivative instruments: 2030 correlation. ranges for correlation cover a variety of underliers both within one product type (e.g., equity index and equity single stock names) and across product types (e.g., correlation of an interest rate and a currency), as well as across regions. generally, cross-product type correlation inputs are used to value more complex instruments and are lower than correlation inputs on assets within the same derivative product type. 2030 volatility. ranges for volatility cover numerous underliers across a variety of markets, maturities and strike prices. for example, volatility of equity indices is generally lower than volatility of single stocks. 2030 credit spreads, upfront credit points and recovery rates. the ranges for credit spreads, upfront credit points and recovery rates cover a variety of underliers (index and single names), regions, sectors, maturities and credit qualities (high-yield and investment-grade). the broad range of this population gives rise to the width of the ranges of significant unobservable inputs. 130 goldman sachs 2017 form 10-k.

included in the corporate and consumer loan tables above are purchased distressed loans, which are loans that have evidenced significant credit deterioration subsequent to origination but prior to acquisition by citigroup. in accordance with sop 03-3, the difference between the total expected cash flows for these loans and the initial recorded investments is recognized in income over the life of the loans using a level yield. accordingly, these loans have been excluded from the impaired loan information presented above. in addition, per sop 03-3, subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows for a purchased distressed loan require a build of an allowance so the loan retains its level yield. however, increases in the expected cash flows are first recognized as a reduction of any previously established allowance and then recognized as income prospectively over the remaining life of the loan by increasing the loan 2019s level yield. where the expected cash flows cannot be reliably estimated, the purchased distressed loan is accounted for under the cost recovery method. the carrying amount of the company 2019s purchased distressed loan portfolio at december 31, 2010 was $392 million, net of an allowance of $77 million as of december 31, 2010. the changes in the accretable yield, related allowance and carrying amount net of accretable yield for 2010 are as follows: in millions of dollars accretable carrying amount of loan receivable allowance.

operating activities net cash provided by operating activities increased by $374 million to $3547 million in 2010 as compared to 2009. the increase primarily was attributable to an improvement in our operating working capital balances of $570 million as discussed below, and $187 million related to lower net income tax payments, as compared to 2009. partially offsetting these improvements was a net reduction in cash from operations of $350 million related to our defined benefit pension plan. this reduction was the result of increased contributions to the pension trust of $758 million as compared to 2009, partially offset by an increase in the cas costs recovered on our contracts. operating working capital accounts consists of receivables, inventories, accounts payable, and customer advances and amounts in excess of costs incurred. the improvement in cash provided by operating working capital was due to a decline in 2010 accounts receivable balances compared to 2009, and an increase in 2010 customer advances and amounts in excess of costs incurred balances compared to 2009. these improvements partially were offset by a decline in accounts payable balances in 2010 compared to 2009. the decline in accounts receivable primarily was due to higher collections on various programs at electronic systems, is&gs, and space systems business areas. the increase in customer advances and amounts in excess of costs incurred primarily was attributable to an increase on government and commercial satellite programs at space systems and air mobility programs at aeronautics, partially offset by a decrease on various programs at electronic systems. the decrease in accounts payable was attributable to the timing of accounts payable activities across all segments. net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $1248 million to $3173 million in 2009 as compared to 2008. the decline primarily was attributable to an increase in our contributions to the defined benefit pension plan of $1373 million as compared to 2008 and an increase in our operating working capital accounts of $147 million. partially offsetting these items was the impact of lower net income tax payments in 2009 as compared to 2008 in the amount of $319 million. the decline in cash provided by operating working capital primarily was due to growth of receivables on various programs in the ms2 and gt&l lines of business at electronic systems and an increase in inventories on combat aircraft programs at aeronautics, which partially were offset by increases in customer advances and amounts in excess of costs incurred on government satellite programs at space systems and the timing of accounts payable activities. investing activities capital expenditures 2013 the majority of our capital expenditures relate to facilities infrastructure and equipment that are incurred to support new and existing programs across all of our business segments. we also incur capital expenditures for it to support programs and general enterprise it infrastructure. capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment amounted to $820 million in 2010, $852 million in 2009, and $926 million in 2008. we expect that our operating cash flows will continue to be sufficient to fund our annual capital expenditures over the next few years. acquisitions, divestitures and other activities 2013 acquisition activities include both the acquisition of businesses and investments in affiliates. amounts paid in 2010 of $148 million primarily related to investments in affiliates. we paid $435 million in 2009 for acquisition activities, compared with $233 million in 2008. in 2010, we received proceeds of $798 million from the sale of eig, net of $17 million in transaction costs (see note 2). there were no material divestiture activities in 2009 and 2008. during 2010, we increased our short-term investments by $171 million compared to an increase of $279 million in 2009. financing activities share activity and dividends 2013 during 2010, 2009, and 2008, we repurchased 33.0 million, 24.9 million, and 29.0 million shares of our common stock for $2483 million, $1851 million, and $2931 million. of the shares we repurchased in 2010, 0.9 million shares for $63 million were repurchased in december but settled and were paid for in january 2011. in october 2010, our board of directors approved a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of our common stock from time-to-time, up to an authorized amount of $3.0 billion (see note 12). under the program, we have discretion to determine the dollar amount of shares to be repurchased and the timing of any repurchases in compliance with applicable law and regulation. we repurchased a total of 11.2 million shares under the program for $776

of prior service cost or credits, and net actuarial gains or losses) as part of non-operating income. we adopted the requirements of asu no. 2017-07 on january 1, 2018 using the retrospective transition method. we expect the adoption of asu no. 2017-07 to result in an increase to consolidated operating profit of $471 million and $846 million for 2016 and 2017, respectively, and a corresponding decrease in non-operating income for each year. we do not expect any impact to our business segment operating profit, our consolidated net earnings, or cash flows as a result of adopting asu no. 2017-07. intangibles-goodwill and other in january 2017, the fasb issued asu no. 2017-04, intangibles-goodwill and other (topic 350), which eliminates the requirement to compare the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill (commonly referred to as step 2) from the goodwill impairment test. the new standard does not change how a goodwill impairment is identified. wewill continue to perform our quantitative and qualitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, but if we are required to recognize a goodwill impairment charge, under the new standard the amount of the charge will be calculated by subtracting the reporting unit 2019s fair value from its carrying amount. under the prior standard, if we were required to recognize a goodwill impairment charge, step 2 required us to calculate the implied value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the amount of the charge was calculated by subtracting the reporting unit 2019s implied fair value of goodwill from its actual goodwill balance. the new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after december 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied prospectively from the date of adoption. we elected to adopt the new standard for future goodwill impairment tests at the beginning of the third quarter of 2017, because it significantly simplifies the evaluation of goodwill for impairment. the impact of the new standard will depend on the outcomes of future goodwill impairment tests. derivatives and hedging inaugust 2017, the fasb issuedasu no. 2017-12derivatives and hedging (topic 815), which eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after december 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. we do not expect a significant impact to our consolidated assets and liabilities, net earnings, or cash flows as a result of adopting this new standard. we plan to adopt the new standard january 1, 2019. leases in february 2016, the fasb issuedasu no. 2016-02, leases (topic 842), which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements for both lessees and lessors. the new standard is effective january 1, 2019 for public companies, with early adoption permitted. the new standard currently requires the application of a modified retrospective approach to the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. we are continuing to evaluate the expected impact to our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. we plan to adopt the new standard effective january 1, 2019. note 2 2013 earnings per share theweighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute earnings per common sharewere as follows (in millions):.

total | $4617 | $1107 | $707 | $2646 | $1801 | $7657
(a) the 2006 amount includes $2.4 billion for contracts made in the ordinary course of business to purchase pulpwood, logs and wood chips. the majority of our other purchase obligations are take-or-pay or purchase commitments made in the ordinary course of business related to raw material purchases and energy contracts. other significant items include purchase obligations related to contracted services. transformation plan in july 2005, the company announced a plan to focus its business portfolio on two key global platform businesses: uncoated papers (including distribution) and packaging. the plan also focuses on improving shareholder return through mill realignments in those two businesses, additional cost improvements and exploring strategic options for other businesses, includ- ing possible sale or spin-off. in connection with this process, in the third quarter of 2005, the company completed the sale of its 50.5% (50.5%) interest in carter holt harvey limited. other businesses currently under re- view include: 2022 the coated and supercalendered papers busi- ness, including the coated groundwood mill and associated assets in brazil, 2022 the beverage packaging business, including the pine bluff, arkansas mill, 2022 the kraft papers business, including the roa- noke rapids, north carolina mill, 2022 arizona chemical, 2022 the wood products business, and 2022 segments or potentially all of the company 2019s 6.5 million acres of u.s. forestlands. consistent with this evaluation process, the com- pany has distributed bid package information for some of these businesses. the exact timing of this evaluation process will vary by business; however, it is anticipated that decisions will be made for some of these businesses during 2006. while the exact use of any proceeds from potential future sales is dependent upon various factors affecting future cash flows, such as the amount of any proceeds received and changes in market conditions, input costs and capital spending, the company remains committed to using its free cash flow in 2006 to pay down debt, to return value to shareholders, and for se- lective high-return investments. critical accounting policies the preparation of financial statements in con- formity with generally accepted accounting principles in the united states requires international paper to estab- lish accounting policies and to make estimates that af- fect both the amounts and timing of the recording of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. some of these estimates require judgments about matters that are in- herently uncertain. accounting policies whose application may have a significant effect on the reported results of operations and financial position of international paper, and that can require judgments by management that affect their application, include sfas no. 5, 201caccounting for contingencies, 201d sfas no. 144, 201caccounting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, 201d sfas no. 142, 201cgoodwill and other intangible assets, 201d sfas no. 87, 201cemployers 2019 accounting for pensions, 201d sfas no. 106, 201cemployers 2019 accounting for postretirement benefits other than pensions, 201d as amended by sfas nos. 132 and 132r, 201cemployers 2019 disclosures about pension and other postretirement benefits, 201d and sfas no. 109, 201caccounting for income taxes. 201d the following is a discussion of the impact of these accounting policies on international paper: contingent liabilities. accruals for contingent li- abilities, including legal and environmental matters, are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred or an asset impaired and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. liabilities accrued for legal matters require judgments regarding projected outcomes and range of loss based on historical experience and recommendations of legal counsel. additionally, as dis- cussed in note 10 of the notes to consolidated finan- cial statements in item 8. financial statements and supplementary data, reserves for projected future claims settlements relating to exterior siding and roofing prod- ucts previously manufactured by masonite require judgments regarding projections of future claims rates and amounts. international paper utilizes an in- dependent third party consultant to assist in developing these estimates. liabilities for environmental matters require evaluations of relevant environmental regu- lations and estimates of future remediation alternatives and costs. international paper determines these esti- mates after a detailed evaluation of each site. impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill. an impairment of a long-lived asset exists when the asset 2019s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, and is recorded when the carrying amount is not recoverable through future operations. a goodwill impairment exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value. assessments of possible impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill are made when events or changes in cir- cumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset.

liquidity and capital resources we maintained a strong financial position throughout fiscal year 2019. as of 30 september 2019, our consolidated balance sheet included cash and cash items of $2248.7. we continue to have consistent access to commercial paper markets, and cash flows from operating and financing activities are expected to meet liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. as of 30 september 2019, we had $971.5 of foreign cash and cash items compared to a total amount of cash and cash items of $2248.7. as a result of the tax act, we do not expect that a significant portion of our foreign subsidiaries' and affiliates' earnings will be subject to u.s. income tax upon subsequent repatriation to the united states. the repatriation of these earnings may be subject to foreign withholding and other taxes depending on the country in which the subsidiaries and affiliates reside. however, because we have significant current investment plans outside the u.s., it is our intent to permanently reinvest the majority of our foreign cash and cash items that would be subject to additional taxes outside the u.s. refer to note 23, income taxes, for additional information. the table below summarizes our cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities from continuing operations as reflected on the consolidated statements of cash flows:.

financing activities | -1370.5 (1370.5) | -1359.8 (1359.8)
operating activities for the fiscal year ended 30 september 2019, cash provided by operating activities was $2969.9. income from continuing operations of $1760.0 was adjusted for items including depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, impacts from the tax act, a charge for the facility closure of one of our customers, undistributed earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, gain on sale of assets and investments, share-based compensation, noncurrent capital lease receivables, and certain other adjustments. the caption "gain on sale of assets and investments" includes a gain of $14.1 recognized on the disposition of our interest in high-tech gases (beijing) co., ltd., a previously held equity investment in our industrial gases 2013 asia segment. refer to note 7, acquisitions, to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. the working capital accounts were a use of cash of $25.3, primarily driven by $69.0 from trade receivables and $41.8 from payables and accrued liabilities, partially offset by $79.8 from other receivables. the use of cash within "payables and accrued liabilities" was primarily driven by a $48.9 decrease in accrued utilities and a $30.3 decrease in accrued interest, partially offset by a $51.6 increase in customer advances primarily related to sale of equipment activity. the decrease in accrued utilities was primarily driven by a contract modification to a tolling arrangement in india and lower utility costs in the industrial gases 2013 americas segment. the source of cash from other receivables of $79.8 was primarily due to the maturities of forward exchange contracts that hedged foreign currency exposures and the collection of value added taxes. for the fiscal year ended 30 september 2018, cash provided by operating activities was $2547.2, including income from continuing operations of $1455.6. other adjustments of $131.6 include a $54.9 net impact from the remeasurement of intercompany transactions. the related hedging instruments that eliminate the earnings impact are included as a working capital adjustment in other receivables or payables and accrued liabilities. in addition, other adjustments were impacted by cash received from the early termination of a cross currency swap of $54.4, as well as the excess of pension expense over pension contributions of $23.5. the working capital accounts were a use of cash of $265.4, primarily driven by payables and accrued liabilities, inventories, and trade receivables, partially offset by other receivables. the use of cash in payables and accrued liabilities of $277.7 includes a decrease in customer advances of $145.7 primarily related to sale of equipment activity and $67.1 for maturities of forward exchange contracts that hedged foreign currency exposures. the use of cash in inventories primarily resulted from the purchase of helium molecules. in addition, inventories reflect the noncash impact of our change in accounting for u.s. inventories from lifo to fifo. the source of cash from other receivables of $128.3 was primarily due to the maturities of forward exchange contracts that hedged foreign currency exposures..

we generate freight revenues by transporting freight or other materials from our six commodity groups. freight revenues vary with volume (carloads) and average revenue per car (arc). changes in price, traffic mix and fuel surcharges drive arc. we provide some of our customers with contractual incentives for meeting or exceeding specified cumulative volumes or shipping to and from specific locations, which we record as reductions to freight revenues based on the actual or projected future shipments. we recognize freight revenues as shipments move from origin to destination. we allocate freight revenues between reporting periods based on the relative transit time in each reporting period and recognize expenses as we incur them. other revenues include revenues earned by our subsidiaries, revenues from our commuter rail operations, and accessorial revenues, which we earn when customers retain equipment owned or controlled by us or when we perform additional services such as switching or storage. we recognize other revenues as we perform services or meet contractual obligations. freight revenues from all six commodity groups increased during 2014 compared to 2013 driven by 7% (7%) volume growth and core pricing gains of 2.5% (2.5%). volume growth from grain, frac sand, rock, and intermodal (domestic and international) shipments offset declines in crude oil. freight revenues from five of our six commodity groups increased during 2013 compared to 2012. revenue from agricultural products was down slightly compared to 2012. arc increased 5% (5%), driven by core pricing gains, shifts in business mix and an automotive logistics management arrangement. volume essentially was flat year over year as growth in automotive, frac sand, crude oil and domestic intermodal offset declines in coal, international intermodal and grain shipments. our fuel surcharge programs generated freight revenues of $2.8 billion, $2.6 billion, and $2.6 billion in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. fuel surcharge in 2014 increased 6% (6%) driven by our 7% (7%) carloadings increase. fuel surcharge in 2013 essentially was flat versus 2012 as lower fuel price offset improved fuel recovery provisions and the lag effect of our programs (surcharges trail fluctuations in fuel price by approximately two months). in 2014, other revenue increased from 2013 due to higher revenues at our subsidiaries, primarily those that broker intermodal and automotive services, accessorial revenue driven by increased volume and per diem revenue for container usage (previously included in automotive freight revenue). in 2013, other revenue increased from 2012 due primarily to miscellaneous contract revenue and higher revenues at our subsidiaries that broker intermodal and automotive services..
how much does the fuel surcharge revenue in 2014 represent in relation to the one in 2013? 1.07692
and what was, in billions, that fuel surcharge revenue in 2014?

the aes corporation notes to consolidated financial statements 2014 (continued) december 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 was dispatched starting in february 2018. aes puerto rico continues to be the lowest cost and epa compliant energy provider in puerto rico. therefore, we expect aes puerto rico to continue to be a critical supplier to prepa. starting prior to the hurricanes, prepa has been facing economic challenges that could impact the company, and on july 2, 2017, filed for bankruptcy under title iii. as a result of the bankruptcy filing, aes puerto rico and aes ilumina 2019s non-recourse debt of $365 million and $36 million, respectively, is in default and has been classified as current as of december 31, 2017. in november 2017, aes puerto rico signed a forbearance and standstill agreement with its lenders to prevent the lenders from taking any action against the company due to the default events. this agreement will expire on march 22, 2018. the company's receivable balances in puerto rico as of december 31, 2017 totaled $86 million, of which $53 million was overdue. after the filing of title iii protection, and up until the disruption caused by the hurricanes, aes in puerto rico was collecting the overdue amounts from prepa in line with historic payment patterns. considering the information available as of the filing date, management believes the carrying amount of our assets in puerto rico of $627 million is recoverable as of december 31, 2017 and no reserve on the receivables is required. foreign currency risks 2014 aes operates businesses in many foreign countries and such operations could be impacted by significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. fluctuations in currency exchange rate between u.s. dollar and the following currencies could create significant fluctuations in earnings and cash flows: the argentine peso, the brazilian real, the dominican republic peso, the euro, the chilean peso, the colombian peso, and the philippine peso. concentrations 2014 due to the geographical diversity of its operations, the company does not have any significant concentration of customers or sources of fuel supply. several of the company's generation businesses rely on ppas with one or a limited number of customers for the majority of, and in some cases all of, the relevant businesses' output over the term of the ppas. however, no single customer accounted for 10% (10%) or more of total revenue in 2017, 2016 or 2015. the cash flows and results of operations of our businesses depend on the credit quality of our customers and the continued ability of our customers and suppliers to meet their obligations under ppas and fuel supply agreements. if a substantial portion of the company's long-term ppas and/or fuel supply were modified or terminated, the company would be adversely affected to the extent that it would be unable to replace such contracts at equally favorable terms. 26. related party transactions certain of our businesses in panama and the dominican republic are partially owned by governments either directly or through state-owned institutions. in the ordinary course of business, these businesses enter into energy purchase and sale transactions, and transmission agreements with other state-owned institutions which are controlled by such governments. at two of our generation businesses in mexico, the offtakers exercise significant influence, but not control, through representation on these businesses' boards of directors. these offtakers are also required to hold a nominal ownership interest in such businesses. in chile, we provide capacity and energy under contractual arrangements to our investment which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. additionally, the company provides certain support and management services to several of its affiliates under various agreements. the company's consolidated statements of operations included the following transactions with related parties for the periods indicated (in millions):.

backlog applied manufactures systems to meet demand represented by order backlog and customer commitments. backlog consists of: (1) orders for which written authorizations have been accepted and assigned shipment dates are within the next 12 months, or shipment has occurred but revenue has not been recognized; and (2) contractual service revenue and maintenance fees to be earned within the next 12 months. backlog by reportable segment as of october 26, 2014 and october 27, 2013 was as follows: 2014 2013 (in millions, except percentages).
- | 2014 | 2013 | - | (in millions except percentages)
silicon systems group | $1400 | 48% (48%) | $1295 | 55% (55%)

total | $2917 | 100% (100%) | $2372 | 100% (100%)
applied 2019s backlog on any particular date is not necessarily indicative of actual sales for any future periods, due to the potential for customer changes in delivery schedules or cancellation of orders. customers may delay delivery of products or cancel orders prior to shipment, subject to possible cancellation penalties. delays in delivery schedules and/or a reduction of backlog during any particular period could have a material adverse effect on applied 2019s business and results of operations. manufacturing, raw materials and supplies applied 2019s manufacturing activities consist primarily of assembly, test and integration of various proprietary and commercial parts, components and subassemblies (collectively, parts) that are used to manufacture systems. applied has implemented a distributed manufacturing model under which manufacturing and supply chain activities are conducted in various countries, including the united states, europe, israel, singapore, taiwan, and other countries in asia, and assembly of some systems is completed at customer sites. applied uses numerous vendors, including contract manufacturers, to supply parts and assembly services for the manufacture and support of its products. although applied makes reasonable efforts to assure that parts are available from multiple qualified suppliers, this is not always possible. accordingly, some key parts may be obtained from only a single supplier or a limited group of suppliers. applied seeks to reduce costs and to lower the risks of manufacturing and service interruptions by: (1) selecting and qualifying alternate suppliers for key parts; (2) monitoring the financial condition of key suppliers; (3) maintaining appropriate inventories of key parts; (4) qualifying new parts on a timely basis; and (5) locating certain manufacturing operations in close proximity to suppliers and customers. research, development and engineering applied 2019s long-term growth strategy requires continued development of new products, including products that enable expansion into new markets. the company 2019s significant investment in research, development and engineering (rd&e) has generally enabled it to deliver new products and technologies before the emergence of strong demand, thus allowing customers to incorporate these products into their manufacturing plans at an early stage in the technology selection cycle. applied works closely with its global customers to design systems and processes that meet their planned technical and production requirements. product development and engineering organizations are located primarily in the united states, as well as in europe, israel, taiwan, and china. in addition, applied outsources certain rd&e activities, some of which are performed outside the united states, primarily in india and singapore. process support and customer demonstration laboratories are located in the united states, china, taiwan, europe, and israel. applied 2019s investments in rd&e for product development and engineering programs to create or improve products and technologies over the last three years were as follows: $1.4 billion (16 percent of net sales) in fiscal 2014, $1.3 billion (18 percent of net sales) in fiscal 2013, and $1.2 billion (14 percent of net sales) in fiscal 2012. applied has spent an average of 13 percent of net sales in rd&e over the last five years. in addition to rd&e for specific product technologies, applied maintains ongoing programs for automation control systems, materials research, and environmental control that are applicable to its products..

entergy mississippi, inc. management 2019s financial discussion and analysis 2010 compared to 2009 net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory charges (credits). following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing 2010 to 2009. amount (in millions).
- | amount (in millions)
2009 net revenue | $536.7
volume/weather | 18.9
other | -0.3 (0.3)
2010 net revenue | $555.3
the volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase of 1046 gwh, or 8% (8%), in billed electricity usage in all sectors, primarily due to the effect of more favorable weather on the residential sector. gross operating revenues, fuel and purchased power expenses, and other regulatory charges (credits) gross operating revenues increased primarily due to an increase of $22 million in power management rider revenue as the result of higher rates, the volume/weather variance discussed above, and an increase in grand gulf rider revenue as a result of higher rates and increased usage, offset by a decrease of $23.5 million in fuel cost recovery revenues due to lower fuel rates. fuel and purchased power expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in deferred fuel expense as a result of prior over-collections, offset by an increase in the average market price of purchased power coupled with increased net area demand. other regulatory charges increased primarily due to increased recovery of costs associated with the power management recovery rider. other income statement variances 2011 compared to 2010 other operation and maintenance expenses decreased primarily due to: a $5.4 million decrease in compensation and benefits costs primarily resulting from an increase in the accrual for incentive-based compensation in 2010 and a decrease in stock option expense; and the sale of $4.9 million of surplus oil inventory. the decrease was partially offset by an increase of $3.9 million in legal expenses due to the deferral in 2010 of certain litigation expenses in accordance with regulatory treatment. taxes other than income taxes increased primarily due to an increase in ad valorem taxes due to a higher 2011 assessment as compared to 2010, partially offset by higher capitalized property taxes as compared with prior year. depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to an increase in plant in service. interest expense decreased primarily due to a revision caused by ferc 2019s acceptance of a change in the treatment of funds received from independent power producers for transmission interconnection projects..

included in the corporate and consumer loan tables above are purchased distressed loans, which are loans that have evidenced significant credit deterioration subsequent to origination but prior to acquisition by citigroup. in accordance with sop 03-3, the difference between the total expected cash flows for these loans and the initial recorded investments is recognized in income over the life of the loans using a level yield. accordingly, these loans have been excluded from the impaired loan information presented above. in addition, per sop 03-3, subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows for a purchased distressed loan require a build of an allowance so the loan retains its level yield. however, increases in the expected cash flows are first recognized as a reduction of any previously established allowance and then recognized as income prospectively over the remaining life of the loan by increasing the loan 2019s level yield. where the expected cash flows cannot be reliably estimated, the purchased distressed loan is accounted for under the cost recovery method. the carrying amount of the company 2019s purchased distressed loan portfolio at december 31, 2010 was $392 million, net of an allowance of $77 million as of december 31, 2010. the changes in the accretable yield, related allowance and carrying amount net of accretable yield for 2010 are as follows: in millions of dollars accretable carrying amount of loan receivable allowance.

impairment the following table presents net unrealized losses on securities available for sale as of december 31:.
(in millions) | 2011 | 2010
fair value | $99832 | $81881
amortized cost | 100013 | 82329
net unrealized loss pre-tax | $-181 (181) | $-448 (448)
net unrealized loss after-tax | $-113 (113) | $-270 (270)
the net unrealized amounts presented above excluded the remaining net unrealized losses related to reclassifications of securities available for sale to securities held to maturity. these unrealized losses related to reclassifications totaled $303 million, or $189 million after-tax, and $523 million, or $317 million after-tax, as of december 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, or oci. refer to note 12 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8. the decline in these remaining after-tax unrealized losses related to reclassifications from december 31, 2010 to december 31, 2011 resulted primarily from amortization. we conduct periodic reviews of individual securities to assess whether other-than-temporary impairment exists. to the extent that other-than-temporary impairment is identified, the impairment is broken into a credit component and a non-credit component. the credit component is recorded in our consolidated statement of income, and the non-credit component is recorded in oci to the extent that we do not intend to sell the security. our assessment of other-than-temporary impairment involves an evaluation, more fully described in note 3, of economic and security-specific factors. such factors are based on estimates, derived by management, which contemplate current market conditions and security-specific performance. to the extent that market conditions are worse than management 2019s expectations, other-than-temporary impairment could increase, in particular, the credit component that would be recorded in our consolidated statement of income. given the exposure of our investment securities portfolio, particularly mortgage- and asset-backed securities, to residential mortgage and other consumer credit risks, the performance of the u.s. housing market is a significant driver of the portfolio 2019s credit performance. as such, our assessment of other-than-temporary impairment relies to a significant extent on our estimates of trends in national housing prices. generally, indices that measure trends in national housing prices are published in arrears. as of september 30, 2011, national housing prices, according to the case-shiller national home price index, had declined by approximately 31.3% (31.3%) peak-to-current. overall, management 2019s expectation, for purposes of its evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment as of december 31, 2011, was that housing prices would decline by approximately 35% (35%) peak-to-trough. the performance of certain mortgage products and vintages of securities continues to deteriorate. in addition, management continues to believe that housing prices will decline further as indicated above. the combination of these factors has led to an increase in management 2019s overall loss expectations. our investment portfolio continues to be sensitive to management 2019s estimates of future cumulative losses. ultimately, other-than- temporary impairment is based on specific cusip-level detailed analysis of the unique characteristics of each security. in addition, we perform sensitivity analysis across each significant product type within the non-agency u.s. residential mortgage-backed portfolio. we estimate, for example, that other-than-temporary impairment of the investment portfolio could increase by approximately $10 million to $50 million, if national housing prices were to decline by 37% (37%) to 39% (39%) peak-to-trough, compared to management 2019s expectation of 35% (35%) described above. this sensitivity estimate is based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the level of housing prices and the timing of defaults. to the extent that such factors differ substantially from management 2019s current expectations, resulting loss estimates may differ materially from those stated. excluding the securities for which other-than-temporary impairment was recorded in 2011, management considers the aggregate decline in fair value of the remaining.
what was the total of unrealized losses related to reclassifications in 2011, before tax? 303.0
and what was it after tax? 189.0
what was, then, the impact of the tax on that total? 114.0
and between that year and the previous, 2010, what was the change in the fair value of the full unrealized losses? 17951.0
what is this change as a percentage of that fair value in 2010?

earnings for the first quarter of 2007 are expected to be lower than in the fourth quarter of 2006. containerboard export sales volumes are expected to decline due to scheduled first-quarter main- tenance outages. sales volumes for u.s. converted products will be higher due to more shipping days, but expected softer demand should cause the ship- ments per day to decrease. average sales price real- izations are expected to be comparable to fourth- quarter averages. an additional containerboard price increase was announced in january that is expected to be fully realized in the second quarter. costs for wood, energy, starch, adhesives and freight are expected to increase. manufacturing costs will be higher due to costs associated with scheduled main- tenance outages in the containerboard mills. euro- pean container operating results are expected to improve as seasonally higher sales volumes and improved margins more than offset slightly higher manufacturing costs. consumer packaging demand and pricing for consumer packaging prod- ucts correlate closely with consumer spending and general economic activity. in addition to prices and volumes, major factors affecting the profitability of consumer packaging are raw material and energy costs, manufacturing efficiency and product mix. consumer packaging net sales increased 9% (9%) compared with 2005 and 7% (7%) compared with 2004. operating profits rose 8% (8%) from 2005, but declined 15% (15%) from 2004 levels. compared with 2005, higher sales volumes ($9 million), improved average sales price realizations ($33 million), reduced lack-of-order downtime ($18 million), and favorable mill oper- ations ($25 million) were partially offset by higher raw material costs ($19 million) and freight costs ($21 million), unfavorable mix ($14 million) and other costs ($21 million). consumer packaging in millions 2006 2005 2004.

coated paperboard net sales of $1.5 billion in 2006 were higher than $1.3 billion in 2005 and $1.1 billion in 2004. sales volumes increased in 2006 compared with 2005, particularly in the folding car- ton board segment, reflecting improved demand for coated paperboard products. in 2006, our coated paperboard mills took 4000 tons of lack-of-order downtime, compared with 82000 tons of lack-of-order downtime in 2005. average sales price realizations were substantially improved in the cur- rent year, principally for folding carton board and cupstock board. operating profits were 51% (51%) higher in 2006 than in 2005, and 7% (7%) better than in 2004. the impact of the higher sales prices along with more favorable manufacturing operations due to strong performance at the mills more than offset higher input costs for energy and freight. foodservice net sales declined to $396 million in 2006, compared with $437 million in 2005 and $480 million in 2004, due principally to the sale of the jackson, tennessee plant in july 2005. sales vol- umes were lower in 2006 than in 2005, although average sales prices were higher due to the realiza- tion of price increases implemented during 2005. operating profits for 2006 improved over 2005 and 2004 levels largely due to the benefits from higher sales prices. raw material costs for bleached board were higher than in 2005, but manufacturing costs were more favorable due to increased productivity and reduced waste. shorewood net sales of $670 million were down from $691 million in 2005 and $687 million in 2004. sales volumes in 2006 were down from 2005 levels due to weak demand in the home entertainment and consumer products markets, although demand was strong in the tobacco segment. average sales prices for the year were lower than in 2005. operating prof- its were down significantly from both 2005 and 2004 due to the decline in sales, particularly in the higher margin home entertainment markets, higher raw material costs for bleached board and certain inventory adjustment costs. entering 2007, coated paperboard first-quarter sales volumes are expected to be seasonally stronger than in the fourth quarter 2006 for folding carton board and bristols. average sales price realizations are expected to rise with a price increase announced in january. it is anticipated that manufacturing costs will improve versus an unfavorable fourth quarter. foodservice earnings for the first quarter of 2007 are expected to decline due to seasonally weaker vol- ume. however, sales price realizations will be slightly higher, and the seasonal switch to hot cup contain- ers will have a favorable impact on product mix. shorewood sales volumes for the first quarter of 2007 are expected to seasonally decline, but the earnings impact will be partially offset by pricing improvements and an improved product mix. distribution our distribution business, principally represented by our xpedx business, markets a diverse array of products and supply chain services to customers in.
in the year of 2006, what amount from the consumer packaging sales was due to foodservice net sales? 396.0

from time-to-time, the company is involved in legal and administrative proceedings and claims of various types. while any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, management, in consultation with the company 2019s general counsel, presently believes that the outcome of each such other proceedings or claims which are pending or known to be threatened, or all of them combined, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the company 2019s financial position, cash flow and results. on may 15, 2006 richard a. nazarian, as selling stockholder representative, filed a demand for arbitration (subsequently amended) with the boston office of the american arbitration association.

rental expense for operating leases was approximately $66.9 million, $57.2 million and $49.0 million during the years ended december 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. in connection with the acquisitions of several businesses, we entered into agreements with several sellers of those businesses, some of whom became stockholders as a result of those acquisitions, for the lease of certain properties used in our operations. typical lease terms under these agreements include an initial term of five years, with three to five five-year renewal options and purchase options at various times throughout the lease periods. we also maintain the right of first refusal concerning the sale of the leased property. lease payments to an employee who became an officer of the company after the acquisition of his business were approximately $1.0 million, $0.9 million and $0.9 million during each of the years ended december 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. we guarantee the residual values of the majority of our truck and equipment operating leases. the residual values decline over the lease terms to a defined percentage of original cost. in the event the lessor does not realize the residual value when a piece of equipment is sold, we would be responsible for a portion of the shortfall. similarly, if the lessor realizes more than the residual value when a piece of equipment is sold, we would be paid the amount realized over the residual value. had we terminated all of our operating leases subject to these guarantees at december 31, 2010, the guaranteed residual value would have totaled approximately $31.4 million. we have not recorded a liability for the guaranteed residual value of equipment under operating leases as the recovery on disposition of the equipment under the leases is expected to approximate the guaranteed residual value. litigation and related contingencies in december 2005 and may 2008, ford global technologies, llc filed complaints with the international trade commission against us and others alleging that certain aftermarket parts imported into the u.s. infringed on ford design patents. the parties settled these matters in april 2009 pursuant to a settlement arrangement that expires in september 2011. pursuant to the settlement, we (and our designees) became the sole distributor in the u.s. of aftermarket automotive parts that correspond to ford collision parts that are covered by a u.s. design patent. we have paid ford an upfront fee for these rights and will pay a royalty for each such part we sell. the amortization of the upfront fee and the royalty expenses are reflected in cost of goods sold on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. we also have certain other contingencies resulting from litigation, claims and other commitments and are subject to a variety of environmental and pollution control laws and regulations incident to the ordinary course of business. we currently expect that the resolution of such contingencies will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows..

the following table shows the impact of catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums and the impact of prior period development on our consolidated loss and loss expense ratio for the periods indicated..
- | 2010 | 2009 | 2008
loss and loss expense ratio as reported | 59.2% (59.2%) | 58.8% (58.8%) | 60.6% (60.6%)
catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums | (3.2)% (%) | (1.2)% (%) | (4.7)% (%)
prior period development | 4.6% (4.6%) | 4.9% (4.9%) | 6.8% (6.8%)
large assumed loss portfolio transfers | (0.3)% (%) | (0.8)% (%) | 0.0% (0.0%)
loss and loss expense ratio adjusted | 60.3% (60.3%) | 61.7% (61.7%) | 62.7% (62.7%)
we recorded net pre-tax catastrophe losses of $366 million in 2010 compared with net pre-tax catastrophe losses of $137 million and $567 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively. the catastrophe losses for 2010 were primarily related to weather- related events in the u.s., earthquakes in chile, mexico, and new zealand, and storms in australia and europe. the catastrophe losses for 2009 were primarily related to an earthquake in asia, floods in europe, several weather-related events in the u.s., and a european windstorm. for 2008, the catastrophe losses were primarily related to hurricanes gustav and ike. prior period development arises from changes to loss estimates recognized in the current year that relate to loss reserves first reported in previous calendar years and excludes the effect of losses from the development of earned premium from pre- vious accident years. we experienced $503 million of net favorable prior period development in our p&c segments in 2010. this compares with net favorable prior period development in our p&c segments of $576 million and $814 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively. refer to 201cprior period development 201d for more information. the adjusted loss and loss expense ratio declined in 2010, compared with 2009, primarily due to the impact of the crop settlements, non-recurring premium adjustment and the reduction in assumed loss portfolio business, which is written at higher loss ratios than other types of business. our policy acquisition costs include commissions, premium taxes, underwriting, and other costs that vary with, and are primarily related to, the production of premium. administrative expenses include all other operating costs. our policy acquis- ition cost ratio increased in 2010, compared with 2009. the increase was primarily related to the impact of crop settlements, which generated higher profit-share commissions and a lower adjustment to net premiums earned, as well as the impact of reinstatement premiums expensed in connection with catastrophe activity and changes in business mix. our administrative expense ratio increased in 2010, primarily due to the impact of the crop settlements, reinstatement premiums expensed, and increased costs in our international operations. although the crop settlements generate minimal administrative expenses, they resulted in lower adjustment to net premiums earned in 2010, compared with 2009. administrative expenses in 2010, were partially offset by higher net results generated by our third party claims administration business, esis, the results of which are included within our administrative expenses. esis generated $85 million in net results in 2010, compared with $26 million in 2009. the increase is primarily from non-recurring sources. our policy acquisition cost ratio was stable in 2009, compared with 2008, as increases in our combined insurance operations were offset by more favorable final crop year settlement of profit share commissions. administrative expenses increased in 2009, primarily due to the inclusion of administrative expenses related to combined insurance for the full year and costs associated with new product expansion in our domestic retail operation and in our personal lines business. our effective income tax rate, which we calculate as income tax expense divided by income before income tax, is depend- ent upon the mix of earnings from different jurisdictions with various tax rates. a change in the geographic mix of earnings would change the effective income tax rate. our effective income tax rate was 15 percent in 2010, compared with 17 percent and 24 percent in 2009 and 2008, respectively. the decrease in our effective income tax rate in 2010, was primarily due to a change in the mix of earnings to lower tax-paying jurisdictions, a decrease in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits which was the result of a settlement with the u.s. internal revenue service appeals division regarding federal tax returns for the years 2002-2004, and the recognition of a non-taxable gain related to the acquisition of rain and hail. the 2009 year included a reduction of a deferred tax valuation allowance related to investments. for 2008, our effective income tax rate was adversely impacted by a change in mix of earnings due to the impact of catastrophe losses in lower tax-paying jurisdictions. prior period development the favorable prior period development, inclusive of the life segment, of $512 million during 2010 was the net result of sev- eral underlying favorable and adverse movements. with respect to ace 2019s crop business, ace regularly receives reports from its managing general agent (mga) relating to the previous crop year (s) in subsequent calendar quarters and this typically results.
what were, in millions, the total catastrophe losses in the years of 2009 and 2010, combined? 503.0
and what were those catastrophe losses in 2008, also in millions? 567.0
including, then, 2008, what then becomes that total of losses?

balance at end of year | $47.0 | $70.1 | $72.0
during 2015, we settled tax matters in various states and puerto rico which reduced our gross unrecognized tax benefits by $13.9 million. during 2014, we settled tax matters in various jurisdictions and reduced our gross unrecognized tax benefits by $1.5 million. during 2013, we settled with the irs appeals division and the joint committee on taxation our 2009 and 2010 tax years. the resolution of these tax periods in addition to various state tax resolutions during the year reduced our gross unrecognized tax benefits by $20.7 million. included in our gross unrecognized tax benefits as of december 31, 2015 and 2014 are $30.5 million and $45.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits (net of the federal benefit on state matters) that, if recognized, would affect our effective income tax rate in future periods. we recognize interest and penalties as incurred within the provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of income. related to the unrecognized tax benefits previously noted, we recorded interest expense of approximately $1.2 million during 2015 and, in total as of december 31, 2015, have recognized a liability for penalties of $0.5 million and interest of $10.3 million. during 2014, we accrued interest of approximately $1.5 million and, in total as of december 31, 2014, had recognized a liability for penalties of $0.5 million and interest of $18.7 million. during 2013, we accrued interest of approximately $1.2 million and, in total as of december 31, 2013, had recognized a liability for penalties of $0.5 million and interest of $17.0 million. gross unrecognized benefits that we expect to settle in the following twelve months are in the range of $0 to $10 million; however, it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may either increase or decrease in the next twelve months. we are currently under examination or administrative review by state and local taxing authorities for various tax years. these state audits are ongoing. we believe the recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions are adequate. however, a significant assessment against us in excess of the liabilities recorded could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows..

what is the value at the end of 2014? 70.1
