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..

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 million, and as of december 31, 2010, there remained $2224 million available for additional share repurchases. in connection with their approval of the new share repurchase program, our board terminated our previous share repurchase program. cash received from the issuance of our common stock in connection with stock option exercises during 2010, 2009, and 2008 totaled $59 million, $40 million, and $250 million. those activities resulted in the issuance of 1.4 million shares, 1.0 million shares, and 4.7 million shares during the respective periods..

contractual obligations for future payments under existing debt and lease commitments and purchase obli- gations at december 31, 2005, were as follows: in millions 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 thereafter.
in millions | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | thereafter

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:.
cash provided by (used for) | 2019 | 2018
operating activities | $2969.9 | $2547.2
investing activities | -2113.4 (2113.4) | -1641.6 (1641.6)
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? 2.8
assuming that the fuel surcharge revenue in 2015 will represent in relation to the 2014 the same as this 2014 one represents in relation to the 2013 one, what will be that fuel surcharge revenue in 2015, in billions?

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%)
applied global services | 775 | 27% (27%) | 591 | 25% (25%)

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..
what were net sales in 2014? 0.0875
and in 2013? 0.07222
so how much did this value change between the two years?

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.

operating profit | $131 | $121 | $155
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.

revenue for 2013 was down 1% (1%) from 2012. pccg experienced lower platform unit sales in the first half of the year, but saw offsetting growth in the back half as the pc market began to show signs of stabilization. dcg continued to benefit from the build out of internet cloud computing and the strength of our product portfolio resulting in increased platform volumes for dcg for the year. higher factory start-up costs for our next-generation 14nm process technology led to a decrease in gross margin compared to 2012. in response to the current business environment and to better align resources, management approved several restructuring actions including targeted workforce reductions as well as the exit of certain businesses and facilities. these actions resulted in restructuring and asset impairment charges of $240 million for 2013. table of contents.

jpmorgan chase & co./2008 annual report 83 credit risk capital credit risk capital is estimated separately for the wholesale business- es (ib, cb, tss and am) and consumer businesses (rfs and cs). credit risk capital for the overall wholesale credit portfolio is defined in terms of unexpected credit losses, both from defaults and declines in the portfolio value due to credit deterioration, measured over a one-year period at a confidence level consistent with an 201caa 201d credit rating standard. unexpected losses are losses in excess of those for which provisions for credit losses are maintained. the capital methodology is based upon several principal drivers of credit risk: exposure at default (or loan-equivalent amount), default likelihood, credit spreads, loss severity and portfolio correlation. credit risk capital for the consumer portfolio is based upon product and other relevant risk segmentation. actual segment level default and severity experience are used to estimate unexpected losses for a one-year horizon at a confidence level consistent with an 201caa 201d credit rating standard. statistical results for certain segments or portfolios are adjusted to ensure that capital is consistent with external bench- marks, such as subordination levels on market transactions or capital held at representative monoline competitors, where appropriate. market risk capital the firm calculates market risk capital guided by the principle that capital should reflect the risk of loss in the value of portfolios and financial instruments caused by adverse movements in market vari- ables, such as interest and foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, securities prices and commodities prices. daily value-at-risk (201cvar 201d), biweekly stress-test results and other factors are used to determine appropriate capital levels. the firm allocates market risk capital to each business segment according to a formula that weights that seg- ment 2019s var and stress-test exposures. see market risk management on pages 111 2013116 of this annual report for more information about these market risk measures. operational risk capital capital is allocated to the lines of business for operational risk using a risk-based capital allocation methodology which estimates opera- tional risk on a bottom-up basis. the operational risk capital model is based upon actual losses and potential scenario-based stress losses, with adjustments to the capital calculation to reflect changes in the quality of the control environment or the use of risk-transfer prod- ucts. the firm believes its model is consistent with the new basel ii framework. private equity risk capital capital is allocated to privately and publicly held securities, third-party fund investments and commitments in the private equity portfolio to cover the potential loss associated with a decline in equity markets and related asset devaluations. in addition to negative market fluctua- tions, potential losses in private equity investment portfolios can be magnified by liquidity risk. the capital allocation for the private equity portfolio is based upon measurement of the loss experience suffered by the firm and other market participants over a prolonged period of adverse equity market conditions. regulatory capital the board of governors of the federal reserve system (the 201cfederal reserve 201d) establishes capital requirements, including well-capitalized standards for the consolidated financial holding company. the office of the comptroller of the currency (201cocc 201d) establishes similar capital requirements and standards for the firm 2019s national banks, including jpmorgan chase bank, n.a., and chase bank usa, n.a. the federal reserve granted the firm, for a period of 18 months fol- lowing the bear stearns merger, relief up to a certain specified amount and subject to certain conditions from the federal reserve 2019s risk-based capital and leverage requirements with respect to bear stearns 2019 risk-weighted assets and other exposures acquired. the amount of such relief is subject to reduction by one-sixth each quarter subsequent to the merger and expires on october 1, 2009. the occ granted jpmorgan chase bank, n.a. similar relief from its risk-based capital and leverage requirements. jpmorgan chase maintained a well-capitalized position, based upon tier 1 and total capital ratios at december 31, 2008 and 2007, as indicated in the tables below. for more information, see note 30 on pages 212 2013213 of this annual report. risk-based capital components and assets.

(a) the fasb has been deliberating certain amendments to both sfas 140 and fin 46r that may impact the accounting for transactions that involve qspes and vies. based on the provisions of the current proposal and the firm 2019s interpretation of the propos- al, the firm estimates that the impact of consolidation could be up to $70 billion of credit card receivables, $40 billion of assets related to firm-sponsored multi-seller conduits, and $50 billion of other loans (including residential mortgages); the decrease in the tier 1 capital ratio could be approximately 80 basis points. the ulti- mate impact could differ significantly due to the fasb 2019s continuing deliberations on the final requirements of the rule and market conditions..
in 2008, what percentage did the tier 2 capital represent in relation to the total one?

investments in unconsolidated affiliated companies | 39 | 31
guarantees | 259 | 210
total | $412 | $716
in addition, cat financial has end-user customers that are vies of which we are not the primary beneficiary. although we have provided financial support to these entities and therefore have a variable interest, we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance. our maximum exposure to loss from our involvement with these vies is limited to the credit risk inherently present in the financial support that we have provided. these risks are evaluated and reflected in our financial statements as part of our overall portfolio of finance receivables and related allowance for credit losses..
what is the net change in total maximum exposure to loss fro vies from 2016 to 2017?

54| | duke realty corporation annual report 2009 net income (loss) per common share basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, less dividends on share-based awards expected to vest, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the sum of basic net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in earnings allocable to units not owned by us (to the extent the units are dilutive), by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, to the extent they are dilutive, limited partnership units outstanding, as well as any potential dilutive securities for the period. during the first quarter of 2009, we adopted a new accounting standard (fasb asc 260-10) on participating securities, which we have applied retrospectively to prior period calculations of basic and diluted earnings per common share. pursuant to this new standard, certain of our share-based awards are considered participating securities because they earn dividend equivalents that are not forfeited even if the underlying award does not vest. the following table reconciles the components of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in thousands):.
- | 2009 | 2008 | 2007
net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders | $-333601 (333601) | $50408 | $211942

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? 1070.0
and what is the average of catastrophe losses between the three years, in millions?

the aes corporation notes to consolidated financial statements 2014 (continued) december 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 on december 8, 2017, the board of directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.13 per share payable on february 15, 2018 to shareholders of record at the close of business on february 1, 2018. stock repurchase program 2014 no shares were repurchased in 2017. the cumulative repurchases from the commencement of the program in july 2010 through december 31, 2017 totaled 154.3 million shares for a total cost of $1.9 billion, at an average price per share of $12.12 (including a nominal amount of commissions). as of december 31, 2017, $246 million remained available for repurchase under the program. the common stock repurchased has been classified as treasury stock and accounted for using the cost method. a total of 155924785 and 156878891 shares were held as treasury stock at december 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. restricted stock units under the company's employee benefit plans are issued from treasury stock. the company has not retired any common stock repurchased since it began the program in july 2010. 15. segments and geographic information the segment reporting structure uses the company's organizational structure as its foundation to reflect how the company manages the businesses internally and is organized by geographic regions which provides a socio- political-economic understanding of our business. during the third quarter of 2017, the europe and asia sbus were merged in order to leverage scale and are now reported as part of the eurasia sbu. the management reporting structure is organized by five sbus led by our president and chief executive officer: us, andes, brazil, mcac and eurasia sbus. the company determined that it has five operating and five reportable segments corresponding to its sbus. all prior period results have been retrospectively revised to reflect the new segment reporting structure. in february 2018, we announced a reorganization as a part of our ongoing strategy to simplify our portfolio, optimize our cost structure, and reduce our carbon intensity. the company is currently evaluating the impact this reorganization will have on our segment reporting structure. corporate and other 2014 corporate overhead costs which are not directly associated with the operations of our five reportable segments are included in "corporate and other." also included are certain intercompany charges such as self-insurance premiums which are fully eliminated in consolidation. the company uses adjusted ptc as its primary segment performance measure. adjusted ptc, a non-gaap measure, is defined by the company as pre-tax income from continuing operations attributable to the aes corporation excluding gains or losses of the consolidated entity due to (a) unrealized gains or losses related to derivative transactions; (b) unrealized foreign currency gains or losses; (c) gains, losses and associated benefits and costs due to dispositions and acquisitions of business interests, including early plant closures; (d) losses due to impairments; (e) gains, losses and costs due to the early retirement of debt; and (f) costs directly associated with a major restructuring program, including, but not limited to, workforce reduction efforts, relocations, and office consolidation. adjusted ptc also includes net equity in earnings of affiliates on an after-tax basis adjusted for the same gains or losses excluded from consolidated entities. the company has concluded adjusted ptc better reflects the underlying business performance of the company and is the most relevant measure considered in the company's internal evaluation of the financial performance of its segments. additionally, given its large number of businesses and complexity, the company concluded that adjusted ptc is a more transparent measure that better assists investors in determining which businesses have the greatest impact on the company's results. revenue and adjusted ptc are presented before inter-segment eliminations, which includes the effect of intercompany transactions with other segments except for interest, charges for certain management fees, and the write-off of intercompany balances, as applicable. all intra-segment activity has been eliminated within the segment. inter-segment activity has been eliminated within the total consolidated results. the following tables present financial information by segment for the periods indicated (in millions):.

notes to consolidated financial statements (continued) march 31, 2004 5. income taxes (continued) the effective tax rate of zero differs from the statutory rate of 34% (34%) primarily due to the inability of the company to recognize deferred tax assets for its operating losses and tax credits. of the total valuation allowance, approximately $2400000 relates to stock option compensation deductions. the tax benefit associated with the stock option compensation deductions will be credited to equity when realized. 6. commitments and contingencies the company applies the disclosure provisions of fin no. 45, guarantor 2019s accounting and disclosure requirements for guarantees, including guarantees of indebtedness of others, and interpretation of fasb statements no. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of fasb interpretation no. 34 (fin no. 45) to its agreements that contain guarantee or indemnification clauses. these disclosure provisions expand those required by sfas no. 5, accounting for contingencies, by requiring that guarantors disclose certain types of guarantees, even if the likelihood of requiring the guarantor 2019s performance is remote. the following is a description of arrangements in which the company is a guarantor. product warranties 2013 the company routinely accrues for estimated future warranty costs on its product sales at the time of sale. the ab5000 and bvs products are subject to rigorous regulation and quality standards. while the company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates. operating results could be adversely effected if the actual cost of product failures exceeds the estimated warranty provision. patent indemnifications 2013 in many sales transactions, the company indemnifies customers against possible claims of patent infringement caused by the company 2019s products. the indemnifications contained within sales contracts usually do not include limits on the claims. the company has never incurred any material costs to defend lawsuits or settle patent infringement claims related to sales transactions. under the provisions of fin no. 45, intellectual property indemnifications require disclosure only. as of march 31, 2004, the company had entered into leases for its facilities, including its primary operating facility in danvers, massachusetts, with terms through fiscal 2010. the company has elected not to exercise a buyout option available under its primary lease that would have allowed for early termination in 2005. total rent expense under these leases, included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, was approximately $856000, $823000 and $821000 for the fiscal years ended march 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively. during the fiscal year ended march 31, 2000, the company entered into 36-month operating leases totaling approximately $644000 for the lease of office furniture. these leases ended in fiscal year 2003 and at the company 2019s option the furniture was purchased. rental expense recorded for these leases during the fiscal years ended march 31, 2002 and 2003 was approximately $215000 and $127000 respectively. during fiscal 2000, the company entered into a 36-month capital lease for computer equipment and software for approximately $221000. this lease ended in fiscal year 2003 and at the company 2019s option these assets were purchased. future minimum lease payments under all non-cancelable operating leases as of march 31, 2004 are approximately as follows (in thousands):.
year ending march 31, | operating leases
2005 | $781
2006 | 776
2007 | 769
2008 | 772
2009 | 772
thereafter | 708
total future minimum lease payments | $4578
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, will not have a material adverse effect on the company..
what is the last year included in the remaining terms of the facility leases?

henry hub natural gas (dollars per mcf) (a) $3.99 $9.04 $6.86 (a) first-of-month price index. crude oil prices rose sharply through the first half of 2008 as a result of strong global demand, a declining dollar, ongoing concerns about supplies of crude oil, and geopolitical risk. later in 2008, crude oil prices sharply declined as the u.s. dollar rebounded and global demand decreased as a result of economic recession. the price decrease continued into 2009, but reversed after dropping below $33.98 in february, ending the year at $79.36. our domestic crude oil production is about 62 percent sour, which means that it contains more sulfur than light sweet wti does. sour crude oil also tends to be heavier than light sweet crude oil and sells at a discount to light sweet crude oil because of higher refining costs and lower refined product values. our international crude oil production is relatively sweet and is generally sold in relation to the dated brent crude benchmark. the differential between wti and dated brent average prices narrowed to $0.42 in 2009 compared to $2.49 in 2008 and $0.02 in 2007..
what was the change in the average wti crude oil benchmark from 2007 to 2009? -10.32
and what was that average wti crude oil benchmark in 2007? 72.41
how much, then, does that change represent in relation to this 2007 amount, in percentage?

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..
what was the increase in the operating profit for space systems from 2011 to 2012? 20.0

net sales increased $29.9 million, or 6.3% (6.3%), due to higher sales volume driven primarily by continuing improvement in the u.s. home products market and the benefit from new product introductions and price increases to help mitigate cumulative raw material cost increases. operating income increased $12.6 million, or 20.4% (20.4%), due to higher net sales, the benefits from productivity improvements and leveraging sales on our existing fixed cost base. security net sales increased $12.8 million, or 2.2% (2.2%), due to higher sales volume and price increases to help mitigate cumulative raw material cost increases. these benefits were partially offset by the impact of our exiting of two product lines in our commercial distribution channel. operating income increased $5.8 million, or 8.7% (8.7%), primarily due to the higher net sales, the benefits from productivity improvements, lower restructuring and other charges (approximately $6 million) relating to the completion in 2016 of a manufacturing facility relocation, favorable foreign exchange and the related cost savings resulting from the facility relocation. corporate corporate expenses increased by $5.7 million mainly due to the impairment of a long lived asset and recognition of an actuarial gain versus an actuarial loss in 2016 and higher defined benefit plan income during 2017 compared to 2016.

in future periods the company may record, in the corporate segment, material expense or income associated with actuarial gains and losses arising from periodic remeasurement of our liabilities for defined benefit plans. at a minimum the company will remeasure its defined benefit plan liabilities in the fourth quarter of each year. remeasurements due to plan amendments and settlements may also occur in interim periods during the year. remeasurement of these liabilities attributable to updating our liability discount rates and expected return on assets may, in particular, result in material income or expense recognition. 2016 compared to 2015 total fortune brands net sales net sales increased $405.5 million, or 9% (9%). the increase was due to higher sales volume primarily from the continuing improvement in u.s. market conditions for home products, the benefit from the acquisitions in our cabinets and plumbing segments and price increases to help mitigate cumulative raw material cost increases and the effect of unfavorable foreign exchange. these benefits were partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange of approximately $27 million and higher sales rebates. cost of products sold cost of products sold increased $182.8 million, or 6% (6%), due to higher net sales, including the impact of the acquisitions in our cabinets and plumbing segments, partially offset by the benefit of productivity improvements..
what was the change in the defined benefit plan income from 2016 to 2017? 1.3
and what was that income in 2016? 2.9
how much, then, does that change represent in relation to this 2016 defined benefit plan, in percentage?

the table below reflects the estimated effects on pension expense of certain changes in annual assumptions, using 2012 estimated expense as a baseline. change in assumption (a) estimated increase to 2012 pension expense (in millions).
change in assumption (a) | estimatedincrease to 2012pensionexpense (in millions)
.5% (.5%) decrease in discount rate | $23
.5% (.5%) decrease in expected long-term return on assets | $18
.5% (.5%) increase in compensation rate | $2
(a) the impact is the effect of changing the specified assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. our pension plan contribution requirements are not particularly sensitive to actuarial assumptions. investment performance has the most impact on contribution requirements and will drive the amount of permitted contributions in future years. also, current law, including the provisions of the pension protection act of 2006, sets limits as to both minimum and maximum contributions to the plan. we do not expect to be required by law to make any contributions to the plan during 2012. we maintain other defined benefit plans that have a less significant effect on financial results, including various nonqualified supplemental retirement plans for certain employees. recourse and repurchase obligations as discussed in note 3 loan sale and servicing activities and variable interest entities in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report, pnc has sold commercial mortgage and residential mortgage loans directly or indirectly in securitizations and whole-loan sale transactions with continuing involvement. one form of continuing involvement includes certain recourse and loan repurchase obligations associated with the transferred assets in these transactions. commercial mortgage loan recourse obligations we originate, close, and service certain multi-family commercial mortgage loans which are sold to fnma under fnma 2019s delegated underwriting and servicing (dus) program. we participated in a similar program with the fhlmc. under these programs, we generally assume up to a one-third pari passu risk of loss on unpaid principal balances through a loss share arrangement. at december 31, 2011 and december 31, 2010, the unpaid principal balance outstanding of loans sold as a participant in these programs was $13.0 billion and $13.2 billion, respectively. the potential maximum exposure under the loss share arrangements was $4.0 billion at both december 31, 2011 and december 31, 2010. we maintain a reserve for estimated losses based on our exposure. the reserve for losses under these programs totaled $47 million and $54 million as of december 31, 2011 and december 31, 2010, respectively, and is included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. if payment is required under these programs, we would not have a contractual interest in the collateral underlying the mortgage loans on which losses occurred, although the value of the collateral is taken into account in determining our share of such losses. our exposure and activity associated with these recourse obligations are reported in the corporate & institutional banking segment. residential mortgage loan and home equity repurchase obligations while residential mortgage loans are sold on a non-recourse basis, we assume certain loan repurchase obligations associated with mortgage loans we have sold to investors. these loan repurchase obligations primarily relate to situations where pnc is alleged to have breached certain origination covenants and representations and warranties made to purchasers of the loans in the respective purchase and sale agreements. residential mortgage loans covered by these loan repurchase obligations include first and second-lien mortgage loans we have sold through agency securitizations, non-agency securitizations, and whole-loan sale transactions. as discussed in note 3 in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report, agency securitizations consist of mortgage loans sale transactions with fnma, fhlmc, and the government national mortgage association (gnma) program, while non-agency securitizations and whole-loan sale transactions consist of mortgage loans sale transactions with private investors. our historical exposure and activity associated with agency securitization repurchase obligations has primarily been related to transactions with fnma and fhlmc, as indemnification and repurchase losses associated with federal housing agency (fha) and department of veterans affairs (va) -insured and uninsured loans pooled in gnma securitizations historically have been minimal. repurchase obligation activity associated with residential mortgages is reported in the residential mortgage banking segment. pnc 2019s repurchase obligations also include certain brokered home equity loans/lines that were sold to a limited number of private investors in the financial services industry by national city prior to our acquisition. pnc is no longer engaged in the brokered home equity lending business, and our exposure under these loan repurchase obligations is limited to repurchases of the whole-loans sold in these transactions. repurchase activity associated with brokered home equity lines/loans are reported in the non-strategic assets portfolio segment. loan covenants and representations and warranties are established through loan sale agreements with various investors to provide assurance that pnc has sold loans to the pnc financial services group, inc. 2013 form 10-k 69.
what was the unpaid principal balance outstanding of loans sold as a participant in these programs in 2011, in billions?

oneok partners 2019 commodity price risk is estimated as a hypothetical change in the price of ngls, crude oil and natural gas at december 31, 2008, excluding the effects of hedging and assuming normal operating conditions. oneok partners 2019 condensate sales are based on the price of crude oil. oneok partners estimates the following: 2022 a $0.01 per gallon decrease in the composite price of ngls would decrease annual net margin by approximately $1.2 million; 2022 a $1.00 per barrel decrease in the price of crude oil would decrease annual net margin by approximately $1.0 million; and 2022 a $0.10 per mmbtu decrease in the price of natural gas would decrease annual net margin by approximately $0.6 million. the above estimates of commodity price risk do not include any effects on demand for its services that might be caused by, or arise in conjunction with, price changes. for example, a change in the gross processing spread may cause a change in the amount of ethane extracted from the natural gas stream, impacting gathering and processing margins, ngl exchange revenues, natural gas deliveries, and ngl volumes shipped and fractionated. oneok partners is also exposed to commodity price risk primarily as a result of ngls in storage, the relative values of the various ngl products to each other, the relative value of ngls to natural gas and the relative value of ngl purchases at one location and sales at another location, known as basis risk. oneok partners utilizes fixed-price physical forward contracts to reduce earnings volatility related to ngl price fluctuations. oneok partners has not entered into any financial instruments with respect to its ngl marketing activities. in addition, oneok partners is exposed to commodity price risk as its natural gas interstate and intrastate pipelines collect natural gas from its customers for operations or as part of its fee for services provided. when the amount of natural gas consumed in operations by these pipelines differs from the amount provided by its customers, the pipelines must buy or sell natural gas, or store or use natural gas from inventory, which exposes oneok partners to commodity price risk. at december 31, 2008, there were no hedges in place with respect to natural gas price risk from oneok partners 2019 natural gas pipeline business. distribution our distribution segment uses derivative instruments to hedge the cost of anticipated natural gas purchases during the winter heating months to protect their customers from upward volatility in the market price of natural gas. gains or losses associated with these derivative instruments are included in, and recoverable through, the monthly purchased gas cost mechanism. energy services our energy services segment is exposed to commodity price risk, basis risk and price volatility arising from natural gas in storage, requirement contracts, asset management contracts and index-based purchases and sales of natural gas at various market locations. we minimize the volatility of our exposure to commodity price risk through the use of derivative instruments, which, under certain circumstances, are designated as cash flow or fair value hedges. we are also exposed to commodity price risk from fixed-price purchases and sales of natural gas, which we hedge with derivative instruments. both the fixed-price purchases and sales and related derivatives are recorded at fair value. fair value component of the energy marketing and risk management assets and liabilities - the following table sets forth the fair value component of the energy marketing and risk management assets and liabilities, excluding $21.0 million of net liabilities from derivative instruments declared as either fair value or cash flow hedges..

sfas no. 109, 201caccounting for income taxes, 201d requires that companies record a valuation allowance when it is 201cmore likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. 201d at december 31, 2005, the company has provided a valuation allowance of approximately $422.4 million, including approximately $249.5 million attributable to spectrasite, primarily related to net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. approximately $237.8 million of the spectrasite valuation allowance was assumed as of the acquisition date. the balance of the valuation allowance primarily relates to net state deferred tax assets. the company has not provided a valuation allowance for the remaining deferred tax assets, primarily its federal net operating loss carryforwards, as management believes the company will have sufficient time to realize these federal net operating loss carryforwards during the twenty-year tax carryforward period. the company intends to recover a portion of its deferred tax asset through its federal income tax refund claims related to the carry back of certain federal net operating losses. in june 2003 and october 2003, the company filed federal income tax refund claims with the irs relating to the carry back of $380.0 million of net operating losses generated prior to 2003, of which the company initially anticipated receiving approximately $90.0 million. based on preliminary discussions with tax authorities, the company has revised its estimate of the net realizable value of the federal income tax refund claims and anticipates receiving a refund of approximately $65.0 million as a result of these claims by the end of 2006. there can be no assurances, however, with respect to the specific amount and timing of any refund. the recoverability of the company 2019s remaining net deferred tax asset has been assessed utilizing stable state (no growth) projections based on its current operations. the projections show a significant decrease in depreciation and interest expense in the later years of the carryforward period as a result of a significant portion of its assets being fully depreciated during the first fifteen years of the carryforward period and debt repayments reducing interest expense. accordingly, the recoverability of the net deferred tax asset is not dependent on material improvements to operations, material asset sales or other non-routine transactions. based on its current outlook of future taxable income during the carryforward period, management believes that the net deferred tax asset will be realized. the realization of the company 2019s deferred tax assets as of december 31, 2005 will be dependent upon its ability to generate approximately $1.3 billion in taxable income from january 1, 2006 to december 31, 2025. if the company is unable to generate sufficient taxable income in the future, or carry back losses, as described above, it will be required to reduce its net deferred tax asset through a charge to income tax expense, which would result in a corresponding decrease in stockholders 2019 equity. from time to time the company is subject to examination by various tax authorities in jurisdictions in which the company has significant business operations. the company regularly assesses the likelihood of additional assessments in each of the tax jurisdictions resulting from these examinations. during the year ended.
what was the total value of net operating loss carryforwards? 4575515.0
and how much do the net operating loss carryforwards related to state represent in relation to this total?

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.

(3) in the event of a clearing firm default, if a loss continues to exist after the utilization of the assets of the defaulted firm, our designated working capital and the non-defaulting clearing firms 2019 guaranty fund contributions, we have the right to assess all non-defaulting clearing members as defined in the rules governing the guaranty fund.

reinsurance commissions, fees and other revenue decreased 2% (2%) in 2014 reflecting a 1% (1%) unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange rates and 1% (1%) decline in organic revenue growth due primarily to a significant unfavorable market impact in treaty, partially offset by net new business growth in treaty placements globally and growth in capital markets transactions and advisory business, as well as facultative placements. operating income operating income increased $108 million, or 7% (7%), from 2013 to $1.6 billion in 2014. in 2014, operating income margins in this segment were 21.0% (21.0%), an increase of 120 basis points from 19.8% (19.8%) in 2013. operating margin improvement was driven by solid organic revenue growth, return on investments, expense discipline and savings related to the restructuring programs, partially offset by a $61 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange rates. hr solutions.

our hr solutions segment generated approximately 35% (35%) of our consolidated total revenues in 2014 and provides a broad range of human capital services, as follows: 2022 retirement specializes in global actuarial services, defined contribution consulting, tax and erisa consulting, and pension administration. 2022 compensation focuses on compensatory advisory/counsel including: compensation planning design, executive reward strategies, salary survey and benchmarking, market share studies and sales force effectiveness, with special expertise in the financial services and technology industries. 2022 strategic human capital delivers advice to complex global organizations on talent, change and organizational effectiveness issues, including talent strategy and acquisition, executive on-boarding, performance management, leadership assessment and development, communication strategy, workforce training and change management. 2022 investment consulting advises public and private companies, other institutions and trustees on developing and maintaining investment programs across a broad range of plan types, including defined benefit plans, defined contribution plans, endowments and foundations. 2022 benefits administration applies our human resource expertise primarily through defined benefit (pension), defined contribution (401 (k)), and health and welfare administrative services. our model replaces the resource-intensive processes once required to administer benefit plans with more efficient, effective, and less costly solutions. 2022 exchanges is building and operating healthcare exchanges that provide employers with a cost effective alternative to traditional employee and retiree healthcare, while helping individuals select the insurance that best meets their needs. 2022 human resource business processing outsourcing provides market-leading solutions to manage employee data; administer benefits, payroll and other human resources processes; and record and manage talent, workforce and other core human resource process transactions as well as other complementary services such as flexible spending, dependent audit and participant advocacy. disruption in the global credit markets and the deterioration of the financial markets created significant uncertainty in the marketplace. weak economic conditions in many markets around the globe continued throughout 2014 and have adversely impacted our clients' financial condition and therefore the levels of business activities in the industries and geographies where we operate. while we believe that the majority of our practices are well positioned to manage through this time, these challenges are reducing demand for some of our services and putting continued pressure on the pricing of those services, which is having an adverse effect on our new business and results of operations..

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..

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 analysis of our depreciation studies. changes in the estimated service lives of our assets and their related depreciation rates are implemented prospectively. under group depreciation, the historical cost (net of salvage) of depreciable property that is retired or replaced in the ordinary course of business is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized. the historical cost of certain track assets is estimated using (i) inflation indices published by the bureau of labor statistics and (ii) the estimated useful lives of the assets as determined by our depreciation studies. the indices were selected because they closely correlate with the major costs of the properties comprising the applicable track asset classes. because of the number of estimates inherent in the depreciation and retirement processes and because it is impossible to precisely estimate each of these variables until a group of property is completely retired, we continually monitor the estimated service lives of our assets and the accumulated depreciation associated with each asset class to ensure our depreciation rates are appropriate. in addition, we determine if the recorded amount of accumulated depreciation is deficient (or in excess) of the amount indicated by our depreciation studies. any deficiency (or excess) is amortized as a component of depreciation expense over the remaining service lives of the applicable classes of assets. for retirements of depreciable railroad properties that do not occur in the normal course of business, a gain or loss may be recognized if the retirement meets each of the following three conditions: (i) is unusual, (ii) is material in amount, and (iii) varies significantly from the retirement profile identified through our depreciation studies. a gain or loss is recognized in other income when we sell land or dispose of assets that are not part of our railroad operations. 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 replacement of existing track assets and other road properties, which is typically performed by our employees, and for track line expansion and other capacity projects. costs that are directly attributable to capital projects (including overhead costs) 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. 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. these costs are allocated using appropriate statistical bases. total expense for repairs and maintenance incurred was $2.4 billion for 2014, $2.3 billion for 2013, and $2.1 billion for 2012. 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. 13. accounts payable and other current liabilities dec. 31, dec. 31, millions 2014 2013.

in november 2000, entergy 2019s non-utility nuclear business purchased the fitzpatrick and indian point 3 power plants in a seller-financed transaction. entergy issued notes to nypa with seven annual installments of approximately $108 million commencing one year from the date of the closing, and eight annual installments of $20 million commencing eight years from the date of the closing. these notes do not have a stated interest rate, but have an implicit interest rate of 4.8% (4.8%). in accordance with the purchase agreement with nypa, the purchase of indian point 2 in 2001 resulted in entergy becoming liable to nypa for an additional $10 million per year for 10 years, beginning in september 2003. this liability was recorded upon the purchase of indian point 2 in september 2001. as part of the purchase agreement with nypa, entergy recorded a liability representing the net present value of the payments entergy would be liable to nypa for each year that the fitzpatrick and indian point 3 power plants would run beyond their respective original nrc license expiration date. with the planned shutdown of fitzpatrick at the end of its current fuel cycle, entergy reduced this liability by $26.4 million in 2015 pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement. under a provision in a letter of credit supporting these notes, if certain of the utility operating companies or system energy were to default on other indebtedness, entergy could be required to post collateral to support the letter of credit. entergy louisiana, entergy mississippi, entergy texas, and system energy have obtained long-term financing authorizations from the ferc that extend through october 2017. entergy arkansas has obtained long-term financing authorization from the apsc that extends through december 2018. entergy new orleans has obtained long-term financing authorization from the city council that extends through july 2016. capital funds agreement pursuant to an agreement with certain creditors, entergy corporation has agreed to supply system energy with sufficient capital to:.

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..
between the years of 2017 and 2018, what was the variation observed in the total gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits?

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.

11. fair value measurements during the first quarter of 2008, we fully adopted fasb statement no. 157, fair value measurements (fas 157). fas 157 established a framework for measuring fair value and expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. the adoption of fas 157 had no impact on our financial position or results of operations. fas 157 applies to all assets and liabilities that are measured and reported on a fair value basis. this enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. the statement requires that each asset and liability carried at fair value be classified into one of the following categories: level 1: quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. level 2: observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. level 3: unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data..

the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after december 15, 2008. we will evaluate how the new requirements of statement no. 141 (r) would impact any business combinations completed in 2009 or thereafter. in december 2007, the fasb also issued statement of financial accounting standards no. 160, noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements 2014an amendment of accounting research bulletin no. 51. a noncontrolling interest, sometimes called a minority interest, is the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. statement no. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. under statement no. 160, noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary must be reported as a component of consolidated equity separate from the parent 2019s equity. additionally, the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest must be reported separately on the face of the income statement. statement no. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after december 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. we do not expect the adoption of statement no. 160 to have a material impact on our financial statements and related disclosures. 2008 estimates the forward-looking statements provided in this discussion are based on our examination of historical operating trends, the information that was used to prepare the december 31, 2007 reserve reports and other data in our possession or available from third parties. these forward-looking statements were prepared assuming demand, curtailment, producibility and general market conditions for our oil, natural gas and ngls during 2008 will be substantially similar to those of 2007, unless otherwise noted. we make reference to the 201cdisclosure regarding forward-looking statements 201d at the beginning of this report. amounts related to canadian operations have been converted to u.s. dollars using a projected average 2008 exchange rate of $0.98 u.s. dollar to $1.00 canadian dollar. in january 2007, we announced our intent to divest our west african oil and gas assets and terminate our operations in west africa, including equatorial guinea, cote d 2019ivoire, gabon and other countries in the region. in november 2007, we announced an agreement to sell our operations in gabon for $205.5 million. we are finalizing purchase and sales agreements and obtaining the necessary partner and government approvals for the remaining properties in this divestiture package. we are optimistic we can complete these sales during the first half of 2008. all west african related revenues, expenses and capital will be reported as discontinued operations in our 2008 financial statements. accordingly, all forward-looking estimates in the following discussion exclude amounts related to our operations in west africa, unless otherwise noted. though we have completed several major property acquisitions and dispositions in recent years, these transactions are opportunity driven. thus, the following forward-looking estimates do not include any financial and operating effects of potential property acquisitions or divestitures that may occur during 2008, except for west africa as previously discussed. oil, gas and ngl production set forth below are our estimates of oil, gas and ngl production for 2008. we estimate that our combined 2008 oil, gas and ngl production will total approximately 240 to 247 mmboe. of this total, approximately 92% (92%) is estimated to be produced from reserves classified as 201cproved 201d at december 31, 2007. the following estimates for oil, gas and ngl production are calculated at the midpoint of the estimated range for total production. oil gas ngls total (mmbbls) (bcf) (mmbbls) (mmboe).

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.

operating income | 11503 | 10815 | 688 | 6.4% (6.4%)
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.

13. financial instruments strategy and risk 2013 we may use derivative financial instruments in limited instances for other than trading purposes to assist in managing our overall exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and fuel prices. we are not a party to leveraged derivatives and, by policy, do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. derivative financial instruments qualifying for hedge accounting must maintain a specified level of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedged period. we formally document the nature and relationships between the hedging instruments and hedged items at inception, as well as our risk- management objectives, strategies for undertaking the various hedge transactions, and method of assessing hedge effectiveness. changes in the fair market value of derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are charged to earnings. we may use swaps, collars, futures, and/or forward contracts to mitigate the risk of adverse movements in interest rates and fuel prices; however, the use of these derivative financial instruments may limit future benefits from favorable interest rate and fuel price movements. market and credit risk 2013 we address market risk related to derivative financial instruments by selecting instruments with value fluctuations that highly correlate with the underlying hedged item. we manage credit risk related to derivative financial instruments, which is minimal, by requiring high credit standards for counterparties and periodic settlements. at december 31, 2011 and 2010, we were not required to provide collateral, nor had we received collateral, relating to our hedging activities. determination of fair value 2013 we determine the fair values of our derivative financial instrument positions based upon current fair values as quoted by recognized dealers or the present value of expected future cash flows. interest rate fair value hedges 2013 we manage our overall exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by adjusting the proportion of fixed and floating rate debt instruments within our debt portfolio over a given period. we generally manage the mix of fixed and floating rate debt through the issuance of targeted amounts of each as debt matures or as we require incremental borrowings. we employ derivatives, primarily swaps, as one of the tools to obtain the targeted mix. in addition, we also obtain flexibility in managing interest costs and the interest rate mix within our debt portfolio by evaluating the issuance of and managing outstanding callable fixed-rate debt securities. swaps allow us to convert debt from fixed rates to variable rates and thereby hedge the risk of changes in the debt 2019s fair value attributable to the changes in interest rates. we account for swaps as fair value.

beginning balance | $172945 | $178413
gross increases in unrecognized tax benefits 2013 prior year tax positions | 16191 | 3680

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..

total net revenue | $71372 | $61999 | $54248
2007 compared with 2006 total net revenue of $71.4 billion was up $9.4 billion, or 15% (15%), from the prior year. higher net interest income, very strong private equity gains, record asset management, administration and commissions revenue, higher mortgage fees and related income and record investment banking fees contributed to the revenue growth. these increases were offset partially by lower trading revenue. investment banking fees grew in 2007 to a level higher than the pre- vious record set in 2006. record advisory and equity underwriting fees drove the results, partially offset by lower debt underwriting fees. for a further discussion of investment banking fees, which are primarily recorded in ib, see the ib segment results on pages 40 201342 of this annual report. principal transactions revenue consists of trading revenue and private equity gains. trading revenue declined significantly from the 2006 level, primarily due to markdowns in ib of $1.4 billion (net of hedges) on subprime positions, including subprime cdos, and $1.3 billion (net of fees) on leveraged lending funded loans and unfunded commitments. also in ib, markdowns in securitized products on nonsubprime mortgages and weak credit trading performance more than offset record revenue in currencies and strong revenue in both rates and equities. equities benefited from strong client activity and record trading results across all products. ib 2019s credit portfolio results increased compared with the prior year, primarily driven by higher revenue from risk management activities. the increase in private equity gains from 2006 reflected a significantly higher level of gains, the classification of certain private equity carried interest as compensation expense and a fair value adjustment in the first quarter of 2007 on nonpublic private equity investments resulting from the adoption of sfas 157 (201cfair value measurements 201d). for a further discussion of principal transactions revenue, see the ib and corporate segment results on pages 40 201342 and 59 201360, respectively, and note 6 on page 122 of this annual report. lending & deposit-related fees rose from the 2006 level, driven pri- marily by higher deposit-related fees and the bank of new york transaction. for a further discussion of lending & deposit-related fees, which are mostly recorded in rfs, tss and cb, see the rfs segment results on pages 43 201348, the tss segment results on pages 54 201355, and the cb segment results on pages 52 201353 of this annual report. asset management, administration and commissions revenue reached a level higher than the previous record set in 2006. increased assets under management and higher performance and placement fees in am drove the record results. the 18% (18%) growth in assets under management from year-end 2006 came from net asset inflows and market appreciation across all segments: institutional, retail, private bank and private client services. tss also contributed to the rise in asset management, administration and commissions revenue, driven by increased product usage by new and existing clients and market appreciation on assets under custody. finally, commissions revenue increased, due mainly to higher brokerage transaction volume (primarily included within fixed income and equity markets revenue of ib), which more than offset the sale of the insurance business by rfs in the third quarter of 2006 and a charge in the first quarter of 2007 resulting from accelerated surrenders of customer annuities. for additional information on these fees and commissions, see the segment discussions for ib on pages 40 201342, rfs on pages 43 201348, tss on pages 54 201355, and am on pages 56 201358, of this annual report. the favorable variance resulting from securities gains in 2007 compared with securities losses in 2006 was primarily driven by improvements in the results of repositioning of the treasury invest- ment securities portfolio. also contributing to the positive variance was a $234 million gain from the sale of mastercard shares. for a fur- ther discussion of securities gains (losses), which are mostly recorded in the firm 2019s treasury business, see the corporate segment discussion on pages 59 201360 of this annual report. consol idated results of operat ions.

(a) we utilize a non-gaap measure in the computation of capital expenditures and include spending associated with facilities accounted for as capital leases and purchases of noncontrolling interests. certain contracts associated with facilities that are built to provide product to a specific customer are required to be accounted for as leases, and such spending is reflected as a use of cash within cash provided by operating activities, if the arrangement qualifies as a capital lease. additionally, the payment for subsidiary shares from noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary is accounted for as an equity transaction and will be reflected as a financing activity in the statement of cash flows. the presentation of this non-gaap measure is intended to enhance the usefulness of information by providing a measure that our management uses internally to evaluate and manage our expenditures. capital expenditures on a gaap basis in 2014 totaled $1682.2, compared to $1747.8 in 2013. the decrease of $65.6 was primarily due to the acquisitions in 2013. additions to plant and equipment are largely in support of the merchant gases and tonnage gases businesses. additions to plant and equipment also included support capital of a routine, ongoing nature, including expenditures for distribution equipment and facility improvements. spending in 2014 and 2013 included plant and equipment constructed to provide oxygen for coal gasification in china, hydrogen to the global market, and renewable energy in the u.k. in 2013, we completed three acquisitions with an aggregate cash use, net of cash acquired, of $224.9. in the fourth quarter, we acquired an air separation unit and integrated gases liquefier in guiyang, china. during the third quarter, we acquired epco, the largest independent u.s. producer of liquid carbon dioxide (co2), and wcg. in 2012, we acquired a controlling stake in indura s.a. for $690 and e.i. dupont de nemours and co., inc. 2019s 50% (50%) interest in our joint venture, da nanomaterials for $147. we also purchased a 25% (25%) equity interest in abdullah hashim industrial gases & equipment co. ltd.

note 17 financial derivatives we use derivative financial instruments (derivatives) primarily to help manage exposure to interest rate, market and credit risk and reduce the effects that changes in interest rates may have on net income, fair value of assets and liabilities, and cash flows. we also enter into derivatives with customers to facilitate their risk management activities. derivatives represent contracts between parties that usually require little or no initial net investment and result in one party delivering cash or another type of asset to the other party based on a notional amount and an underlying as specified in the contract. derivative transactions are often measured in terms of notional amount, but this amount is generally not exchanged and it is not recorded on the balance sheet. the notional amount is the basis to which the underlying is applied to determine required payments under the derivative contract. the underlying is a referenced interest rate (commonly libor), security price, credit spread or other index. residential and commercial real estate loan commitments associated with loans to be sold also qualify as derivative instruments. the following table presents the notional amounts and gross fair values of all derivative assets and liabilities held by pnc: table 127: total gross derivatives.

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.
