outstandings supported by a guarantor located outside the country or backed by collateral held outside the country are assigned to the country of the enhancement provider . in addition , the effect of credit derivative hedges and other short credit or equity trading positions are taken into consideration . total exposure measures include activity with both government and private-sector entities in a country . the firm also reports country exposure for regulatory purposes following ffiec guidelines , which are different from the firm 2019s internal risk management approach for measuring country expo- sure . for additional information on the ffiec exposures , see cross- border outstandings on page 314 of this annual report . several european countries , including greece , portugal , spain , italy and ireland , have been subject to credit deterioration due to weak- nesses in their economic and fiscal situations . the firm is closely monitoring its exposures to these five countries . aggregate net exposures to these five countries as measured under the firm 2019s internal approach was less than $ 15.0 billion at december 31 , 2010 , with no country representing a majority of the exposure . sovereign exposure in all five countries represented less than half the aggregate net exposure . the firm currently believes its exposure to these five countries is modest relative to the firm 2019s overall risk expo- sures and is manageable given the size and types of exposures to each of the countries and the diversification of the aggregate expo- sure . the firm continues to conduct business and support client activity in these countries and , therefore , the firm 2019s aggregate net exposures may vary over time . in addition , the net exposures may be impacted by changes in market conditions , and the effects of interest rates and credit spreads on market valuations . as part of its ongoing country risk management process , the firm monitors exposure to emerging market countries , and utilizes country stress tests to measure and manage the risk of extreme loss associated with a sovereign crisis . there is no common definition of emerging markets , but the firm generally includes in its definition those countries whose sovereign debt ratings are equivalent to 201ca+ 201d or lower . the table below presents the firm 2019s exposure to its top 10 emerging markets countries based on its internal measure- ment approach . the selection of countries is based solely on the firm 2019s largest total exposures by country and does not represent its view of any actual or potentially adverse credit conditions. . Question: what were the wholesale lending-related commitments in 2010? Answer: 346.1 Question: and what were them in 2009? Answer: 347.2 Question: how much, then, did the 2010 amount represent in relation to this 2009 one?

entergy corporation and subsidiaries management's financial discussion and analysis methodology of computing massachusetts state income taxes resulting from legislation passed in the third quarter 2008 , which resulted in an income tax benefit of approximately $ 18.8 million . these factors were partially offset by : income taxes recorded by entergy power generation , llc , prior to its liquidation , resulting from the redemption payments it received in connection with its investment in entergy nuclear power marketing , llc during the third quarter 2008 , which resulted in an income tax expense of approximately $ 16.1 million ; book and tax differences for utility plant items and state income taxes at the utility operating companies , including the flow-through treatment of the entergy arkansas write-offs discussed above . the effective income tax rate for 2007 was 30.7% ( 30.7 % ) . the reduction in the effective income tax rate versus the federal statutory rate of 35% ( 35 % ) in 2007 is primarily due to : a reduction in income tax expense due to a step-up in the tax basis on the indian point 2 non-qualified decommissioning trust fund resulting from restructuring of the trusts , which reduced deferred taxes on the trust fund and reduced current tax expense ; the resolution of tax audit issues involving the 2002-2003 audit cycle ; an adjustment to state income taxes for non-utility nuclear to reflect the effect of a change in the methodology of computing new york state income taxes as required by that state's taxing authority ; book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction ; and the amortization of investment tax credits . these factors were partially offset by book and tax differences for utility plant items and state income taxes at the utility operating companies . see note 3 to the financial statements for a reconciliation of the federal statutory rate of 35.0% ( 35.0 % ) to the effective income tax rates , and for additional discussion regarding income taxes . liquidity and capital resources this section discusses entergy's capital structure , capital spending plans and other uses of capital , sources of capital , and the cash flow activity presented in the cash flow statement . capital structure entergy's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt , as shown in the following table . the decrease in the debt to capital percentage from 2008 to 2009 is primarily the result of an increase in shareholders' equity primarily due to an increase in retained earnings , partially offset by repurchases of common stock , along with a decrease in borrowings under entergy corporation's revolving credit facility . the increase in the debt to capital percentage from 2007 to 2008 is primarily the result of additional borrowings under entergy corporation's revolving credit facility. . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2009</td><td>2008</td><td>2007</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net debt to net capital at the end of the year</td><td>53.5% ( 53.5 % )</td><td>55.6% ( 55.6 % )</td><td>54.7% ( 54.7 % )</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>effect of subtracting cash from debt</td><td>3.8% ( 3.8 % )</td><td>4.1% ( 4.1 % )</td><td>2.9% ( 2.9 % )</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>debt to capital at the end of the year</td><td>57.3% ( 57.3 % )</td><td>59.7% ( 59.7 % )</td><td>57.6% ( 57.6 % )</td></tr></table> .

the company endeavors to actively engage with every insured account posing significant potential asbestos exposure to mt . mckinley . such engagement can take the form of pursuing a final settlement , negotiation , litigation , or the monitoring of claim activity under settlement in place ( 201csip 201d ) agreements . sip agreements generally condition an insurer 2019s payment upon the actual claim experience of the insured and may have annual payment caps or other measures to control the insurer 2019s payments . the company 2019s mt . mckinley operation is currently managing four sip agreements , one of which was executed prior to the acquisition of mt . mckinley in 2000 . the company 2019s preference with respect to coverage settlements is to execute settlements that call for a fixed schedule of payments , because such settlements eliminate future uncertainty . the company has significantly enhanced its classification of insureds by exposure characteristics over time , as well as its analysis by insured for those it considers to be more exposed or active . those insureds identified as relatively less exposed or active are subject to less rigorous , but still active management , with an emphasis on monitoring those characteristics , which may indicate an increasing exposure or levels of activity . the company continually focuses on further enhancement of the detailed estimation processes used to evaluate potential exposure of policyholders . everest re 2019s book of assumed a&e reinsurance is relatively concentrated within a limited number of contracts and for a limited period , from 1974 to 1984 . because the book of business is relatively concentrated and the company has been managing the a&e exposures for many years , its claim staff is familiar with the ceding companies that have generated most of these liabilities in the past and which are therefore most likely to generate future liabilities . the company 2019s claim staff has developed familiarity both with the nature of the business written by its ceding companies and the claims handling and reserving practices of those companies . this level of familiarity enhances the quality of the company 2019s analysis of its exposure through those companies . as a result , the company believes that it can identify those claims on which it has unusual exposure , such as non-products asbestos claims , for concentrated attention . however , in setting reserves for its reinsurance liabilities , the company relies on claims data supplied , both formally and informally by its ceding companies and brokers . this furnished information is not always timely or accurate and can impact the accuracy and timeliness of the company 2019s ultimate loss projections . the following table summarizes the composition of the company 2019s total reserves for a&e losses , gross and net of reinsurance , for the periods indicated: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( dollars in millions )</td><td>years ended december 31 , 2012</td><td>years ended december 31 , 2011</td><td>years ended december 31 , 2010</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>case reserves reported by ceding companies</td><td>$ 138.4</td><td>$ 145.6</td><td>$ 135.4</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>additional case reserves established by the company ( assumed reinsurance ) ( 1 )</td><td>90.6</td><td>102.9</td><td>116.1</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>case reserves established by the company ( direct insurance )</td><td>36.7</td><td>40.6</td><td>38.9</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>incurred but not reported reserves</td><td>177.1</td><td>210.9</td><td>264.4</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>gross reserves</td><td>442.8</td><td>499.9</td><td>554.8</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>reinsurance receivable</td><td>-17.1 ( 17.1 )</td><td>-19.8 ( 19.8 )</td><td>-21.9 ( 21.9 )</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>net reserves</td><td>$ 425.7</td><td>$ 480.2</td><td>$ 532.9</td></tr></table> ( 1 ) additional reserves are case specific reserves established by the company in excess of those reported by the ceding company , based on the company 2019s assessment of the covered loss .

in addition , included in the loan table 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 purchased distressed loan portfolio at december 31 , 2009 was $ 825 million net of an allowance of $ 95 million . the changes in the accretable yield , related allowance and carrying amount net of accretable yield for 2009 are as follows : in millions of dollars accretable carrying amount of loan receivable allowance . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in millions of dollars</td><td>accretable yield</td><td>carrying amount of loan receivable</td><td>allowance</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>beginning balance</td><td>$ 92</td><td>$ 1510</td><td>$ 122</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>purchases ( 1 )</td><td>14</td><td>329</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>disposals/payments received</td><td>-5 ( 5 )</td><td>-967 ( 967 )</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>accretion</td><td>-52 ( 52 )</td><td>52</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>builds ( reductions ) to the allowance</td><td>-21 ( 21 )</td><td>1</td><td>-27 ( 27 )</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>increase to expected cash flows</td><td>10</td><td>2</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>fx/other</td><td>-11 ( 11 )</td><td>-7 ( 7 )</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>balance december 31 2009 ( 2 )</td><td>$ 27</td><td>$ 920</td><td>$ 95</td></tr></table> ( 1 ) the balance reported in the column 201ccarrying amount of loan receivable 201d consists of $ 87 million of purchased loans accounted for under the level-yield method and $ 242 million under the cost-recovery method . these balances represent the fair value of these loans at their acquisition date . the related total expected cash flows for the level-yield loans were $ 101 million at their acquisition dates .

the following table identifies the company 2019s aggregate contractual obligations due by payment period : payments due by period . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>total</td><td>less than 1 year</td><td>1-3 years</td><td>3-5 years</td><td>more than 5 years</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>property and casualty obligations [1]</td><td>$ 21885</td><td>$ 5777</td><td>$ 6150</td><td>$ 3016</td><td>$ 6942</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>life annuity and disability obligations [2]</td><td>281998</td><td>18037</td><td>37318</td><td>40255</td><td>186388</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>long-term debt obligations [3]</td><td>9093</td><td>536</td><td>1288</td><td>1613</td><td>5656</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>operating lease obligations</td><td>723</td><td>175</td><td>285</td><td>162</td><td>101</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>purchase obligations [4] [5]</td><td>1764</td><td>1614</td><td>120</td><td>14</td><td>16</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>other long-term liabilities reflected onthe balance sheet [6] [7]</td><td>1642</td><td>1590</td><td>2014</td><td>52</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>total</td><td>$ 317105</td><td>$ 27729</td><td>$ 45161</td><td>$ 45112</td><td>$ 199103</td></tr></table> [1] the following points are significant to understanding the cash flows estimated for obligations under property and casualty contracts : reserves for property & casualty unpaid claim and claim adjustment expenses include case reserves for reported claims and reserves for claims incurred but not reported ( ibnr ) . while payments due on claim reserves are considered contractual obligations because they relate to insurance policies issued by the company , the ultimate amount to be paid to settle both case reserves and ibnr is an estimate , subject to significant uncertainty . the actual amount to be paid is not determined until the company reaches a settlement with the claimant . final claim settlements may vary significantly from the present estimates , particularly since many claims will not be settled until well into the future . in estimating the timing of future payments by year , the company has assumed that its historical payment patterns will continue . however , the actual timing of future payments will likely vary materially from these estimates due to , among other things , changes in claim reporting and payment patterns and large unanticipated settlements . in particular , there is significant uncertainty over the claim payment patterns of asbestos and environmental claims . also , estimated payments in 2005 do not include payments that will be made on claims incurred in 2005 on policies that were in force as of december 31 , 2004 . in addition , the table does not include future cash flows related to the receipt of premiums that will be used , in part , to fund loss payments . under generally accepted accounting principles , the company is only permitted to discount reserves for claim and claim adjustment expenses in cases where the payment pattern and ultimate loss costs are fixed and reliably determinable on an individual claim basis . for the company , these include claim settlements with permanently disabled claimants and certain structured settlement contracts that fund loss runoffs for unrelated parties . as of december 31 , 2004 , the total property and casualty reserves in the above table of $ 21885 are gross of the reserve discount of $ 556 . [2] estimated life , annuity and disability obligations include death and disability claims , policy surrenders , policyholder dividends and trail commissions offset by expected future deposits and premiums on in-force contracts . estimated contractual policyholder obligations are based on mortality , morbidity and lapse assumptions comparable with life 2019s historical experience , modified for recent observed trends . life has also assumed market growth and interest crediting consistent with assumptions used in amortizing deferred acquisition costs . in contrast to this table , the majority of life 2019s obligations are recorded on the balance sheet at the current account value , as described in critical accounting estimates , and do not incorporate an expectation of future market growth , interest crediting , or future deposits . therefore , the estimated contractual policyholder obligations presented in this table significantly exceed the liabilities recorded in reserve for future policy benefits and unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses , other policyholder funds and benefits payable and separate account liabilities . due to the significance of the assumptions used , the amounts presented could materially differ from actual results . as separate account obligations are legally insulated from general account obligations , the separate account obligations will be fully funded by cash flows from separate account assets . life expects to fully fund the general account obligations from cash flows from general account investments and future deposits and premiums . [3] includes contractual principal and interest payments . payments exclude amounts associated with fair-value hedges of certain of the company 2019s long-term debt . all long-term debt obligations have fixed rates of interest . long-term debt obligations also includes principal and interest payments of $ 700 and $ 2.4 billion , respectively , related to junior subordinated debentures which are callable beginning in 2006 . see note 14 of notes to consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of long-term debt obligations . [4] includes $ 1.4 billion in commitments to purchase investments including $ 330 of limited partnerships and $ 299 of mortgage loans . outstanding commitments under these limited partnerships and mortgage loans are included in payments due in less than 1 year since the timing of funding these commitments cannot be estimated . the remaining $ 759 relates to payables for securities purchased which are reflected on the company 2019s consolidated balance sheet . [5] includes estimated contribution of $ 200 to the company 2019s pension plan in 2005 . [6] as of december 31 , 2004 , the company has accepted cash collateral of $ 1.6 billion in connection with the company 2019s securities lending program and derivative instruments . since the timing of the return of the collateral is uncertain , the return of the collateral has been included in the payments due in less than 1 year .

reinsurance of $ 1.08 billion , $ 880 million and $ 827 million for the years ended december 2012 , december 2011 and december 2010 , respectively . 2012 versus 2011 . net revenues in institutional client services were $ 18.12 billion for 2012 , 5% ( 5 % ) higher than 2011 . net revenues in fixed income , currency and commodities client execution were $ 9.91 billion for 2012 , 10% ( 10 % ) higher than 2011 . these results reflected strong net revenues in mortgages , which were significantly higher compared with 2011 . in addition , net revenues in credit products and interest rate products were solid and higher compared with 2011 . these increases were partially offset by significantly lower net revenues in commodities and slightly lower net revenues in currencies . although broad market concerns persisted during 2012 , fixed income , currency and commodities client execution operated in a generally improved environment characterized by tighter credit spreads and less challenging market-making conditions compared with 2011 . net revenues in equities were $ 8.21 billion for 2012 , essentially unchanged compared with 2011 . net revenues in securities services were significantly higher compared with 2011 , reflecting a gain of approximately $ 500 million on the sale of our hedge fund administration business . in addition , equities client execution net revenues were higher than 2011 , primarily reflecting significantly higher results in cash products , principally due to increased levels of client activity . these increases were offset by lower commissions and fees , reflecting lower market volumes . during 2012 , equities operated in an environment generally characterized by an increase in global equity prices and lower volatility levels . the net loss attributable to the impact of changes in our own credit spreads on borrowings for which the fair value option was elected was $ 714 million ( $ 433 million and $ 281 million related to fixed income , currency and commodities client execution and equities client execution , respectively ) for 2012 , compared with a net gain of $ 596 million ( $ 399 million and $ 197 million related to fixed income , currency and commodities client execution and equities client execution , respectively ) for 2011 . during 2012 , institutional client services operated in an environment generally characterized by continued broad market concerns and uncertainties , although positive developments helped to improve market conditions . these developments included certain central bank actions to ease monetary policy and address funding risks for european financial institutions . in addition , the u.s . economy posted stable to improving economic data , including favorable developments in unemployment and housing . these improvements resulted in tighter credit spreads , higher global equity prices and lower levels of volatility . however , concerns about the outlook for the global economy and continued political uncertainty , particularly the political debate in the united states surrounding the fiscal cliff , generally resulted in client risk aversion and lower activity levels . also , uncertainty over financial regulatory reform persisted . if these concerns and uncertainties continue over the long term , net revenues in fixed income , currency and commodities client execution and equities would likely be negatively impacted . operating expenses were $ 12.48 billion for 2012 , 3% ( 3 % ) lower than 2011 , primarily due to lower brokerage , clearing , exchange and distribution fees , and lower impairment charges , partially offset by higher net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings . pre-tax earnings were $ 5.64 billion in 2012 , 27% ( 27 % ) higher than 2011 . 2011 versus 2010 . net revenues in institutional client services were $ 17.28 billion for 2011 , 21% ( 21 % ) lower than 2010 . net revenues in fixed income , currency and commodities client execution were $ 9.02 billion for 2011 , 34% ( 34 % ) lower than 2010 . although activity levels during 2011 were generally consistent with 2010 levels , and results were solid during the first quarter of 2011 , the environment during the remainder of 2011 was characterized by broad market concerns and uncertainty , resulting in volatile markets and significantly wider credit spreads , which contributed to difficult market-making conditions and led to reductions in risk by us and our clients . as a result of these conditions , net revenues across the franchise were lower , including significant declines in mortgages and credit products , compared with 2010 . 54 goldman sachs 2012 annual report .

our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin is the difference between the prices of refined products sold and the costs of crude oil and other charge and blendstocks refined , including the costs to transport these inputs to our refineries , the costs of purchased products and manufacturing expenses , including depreciation . the crack spread is a measure of the difference between market prices for refined products and crude oil , commonly used by the industry as a proxy for the refining margin . crack spreads can fluctuate significantly , particularly when prices of refined products do not move in the same relationship as the cost of crude oil . as a performance benchmark and a comparison with other industry participants , we calculate midwest ( chicago ) and u.s . gulf coast crack spreads that we feel most closely track our operations and slate of products . posted light louisiana sweet ( 201clls 201d ) prices and a 6-3-2-1 ratio of products ( 6 barrels of crude oil producing 3 barrels of gasoline , 2 barrels of distillate and 1 barrel of residual fuel ) are used for the crack spread calculation . our refineries can process significant amounts of sour crude oil which typically can be purchased at a discount to sweet crude oil . the amount of this discount , the sweet/sour differential , can vary significantly causing our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin to differ from the crack spreads which are based upon sweet crude . in general , a larger sweet/sour differential will enhance our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin . in 2009 , the sweet/sour differential narrowed , due to a variety of worldwide economic and petroleum industry related factors , primarily related to lower hydrocarbon demand . sour crude accounted for 50 percent , 52 percent and 54 percent of our crude oil processed in 2009 , 2008 and 2007 . the following table lists calculated average crack spreads for the midwest ( chicago ) and gulf coast markets and the sweet/sour differential for the past three years .

nonoperating income ( expense ) . blackrock also uses operating margin , as adjusted , to monitor corporate performance and efficiency and as a benchmark to compare its performance with other companies . management uses both gaap and non-gaap financial measures in evaluating blackrock 2019s financial performance . the non-gaap measure by itself may pose limitations because it does not include all of blackrock 2019s revenues and expenses . operating income used for measuring operating margin , as adjusted , is equal to operating income , as adjusted , excluding the impact of closed-end fund launch costs and related commissions . management believes the exclusion of such costs and related commissions is useful because these costs can fluctuate considerably and revenues associated with the expenditure of these costs will not fully impact blackrock 2019s results until future periods . revenue used for operating margin , as adjusted , excludes distribution and servicing costs paid to related parties and other third parties . management believes the exclusion of such costs is useful because it creates consistency in the treatment for certain contracts for similar services , which due to the terms of the contracts , are accounted for under gaap on a net basis within investment advisory , administration fees and securities lending revenue . amortization of deferred sales commissions is excluded from revenue used for operating margin measurement , as adjusted , because such costs , over time , substantially offset distribution fee revenue the company earns . for each of these items , blackrock excludes from revenue used for operating margin , as adjusted , the costs related to each of these items as a proxy for such offsetting revenues .

interest-earning assets including unearned income in the accretion of fair value adjustments on discounts recognized on acquired or purchased loans is recognized based on the constant effective yield of the financial instrument . the timing and amount of revenue that we recognize in any period is dependent on estimates , judgments , assumptions , and interpretation of contractual terms . changes in these factors can have a significant impact on revenue recognized in any period due to changes in products , market conditions or industry norms . residential and commercial mortgage servicing rights we elect to measure our residential mortgage servicing rights ( msrs ) at fair value . this election was made to be consistent with our risk management strategy to hedge changes in the fair value of these assets as described below . the fair value of residential msrs is estimated by using a cash flow valuation model which calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows , taking into consideration actual and expected mortgage loan prepayment rates , discount rates , servicing costs , and other economic factors which are determined based on current market conditions . assumptions incorporated into the residential msrs valuation model reflect management 2019s best estimate of factors that a market participant would use in valuing the residential msrs . although sales of residential msrs do occur , residential msrs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices so the precise terms and conditions of sales are not available . as a benchmark for the reasonableness of its residential msrs fair value , pnc obtains opinions of value from independent parties ( 201cbrokers 201d ) . these brokers provided a range ( +/- 10 bps ) based upon their own discounted cash flow calculations of our portfolio that reflected conditions in the secondary market , and any recently executed servicing transactions . pnc compares its internally-developed residential msrs value to the ranges of values received from the brokers . if our residential msrs fair value falls outside of the brokers 2019 ranges , management will assess whether a valuation adjustment is warranted . for 2011 and 2010 , pnc 2019s residential msrs value has not fallen outside of the brokers 2019 ranges . we consider our residential msrs value to represent a reasonable estimate of fair value . commercial msrs are purchased or originated when loans are sold with servicing retained . commercial msrs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices so the precise terms and conditions of sales are not available . commercial msrs are initially recorded at fair value and are subsequently accounted for at the lower of amortized cost or fair value . commercial msrs are periodically evaluated for impairment . for purposes of impairment , the commercial mortgage servicing rights are stratified based on asset type , which characterizes the predominant risk of the underlying financial asset . the fair value of commercial msrs is estimated by using an internal valuation model . the model calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows considering estimates of servicing revenue and costs , discount rates and prepayment speeds . pnc employs risk management strategies designed to protect the value of msrs from changes in interest rates and related market factors . residential msrs values are economically hedged with securities and derivatives , including interest-rate swaps , options , and forward mortgage-backed and futures contracts . as interest rates change , these financial instruments are expected to have changes in fair value negatively correlated to the change in fair value of the hedged residential msrs portfolio . the hedge relationships are actively managed in response to changing market conditions over the life of the residential msrs assets . commercial msrs are economically hedged at a macro level or with specific derivatives to protect against a significant decline in interest rates . selecting appropriate financial instruments to economically hedge residential or commercial msrs requires significant management judgment to assess how mortgage rates and prepayment speeds could affect the future values of msrs . hedging results can frequently be less predictable in the short term , but over longer periods of time are expected to protect the economic value of the msrs . the fair value of residential and commercial msrs and significant inputs to the valuation model as of december 31 , 2011 are shown in the tables below . the expected and actual rates of mortgage loan prepayments are significant factors driving the fair value . management uses a third-party model to estimate future residential loan prepayments and internal proprietary models to estimate future commercial loan prepayments . these models have been refined based on current market conditions . future interest rates are another important factor in the valuation of msrs . management utilizes market implied forward interest rates to estimate the future direction of mortgage and discount rates . the forward rates utilized are derived from the current yield curve for u.s . dollar interest rate swaps and are consistent with pricing of capital markets instruments . changes in the shape and slope of the forward curve in future periods may result in volatility in the fair value estimate . residential mortgage servicing rights dollars in millions december 31

the aes corporation notes to consolidated financial statements 2014 ( continued ) december 31 , 2011 , 2010 , and 2009 the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows ( in millions ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>cash</td><td>$ 116</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>accounts receivable</td><td>278</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>inventory</td><td>124</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>other current assets</td><td>41</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>property plant and equipment</td><td>2549</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>intangible assets subject to amortization</td><td>166</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>intangible assets 2014indefinite-lived</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>regulatory assets</td><td>201</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>other noncurrent assets</td><td>58</td></tr><tr><td>10</td><td>current liabilities</td><td>-401 ( 401 )</td></tr><tr><td>11</td><td>non-recourse debt</td><td>-1255 ( 1255 )</td></tr><tr><td>12</td><td>deferred taxes</td><td>-558 ( 558 )</td></tr><tr><td>13</td><td>regulatory liabilities</td><td>-117 ( 117 )</td></tr><tr><td>14</td><td>other noncurrent liabilities</td><td>-195 ( 195 )</td></tr><tr><td>15</td><td>redeemable preferred stock</td><td>-18 ( 18 )</td></tr><tr><td>16</td><td>net identifiable assets acquired</td><td>994</td></tr><tr><td>17</td><td>goodwill</td><td>2489</td></tr><tr><td>18</td><td>net assets acquired</td><td>$ 3483</td></tr></table> at december 31 , 2011 , the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition were recorded at provisional amounts based on the preliminary purchase price allocation . the company is in the process of obtaining additional information to identify and measure all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition within the measurement period , which could be up to one year from the date of acquisition . such provisional amounts will be retrospectively adjusted to reflect any new information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that , if known , would have affected the measurement of these amounts . additionally , key input assumptions and their sensitivity to the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are currently being reviewed by management . it is likely that the value of the generation business related property , plant and equipment , the intangible asset related to the electric security plan with its regulated customers and long-term coal contracts , the 4.9% ( 4.9 % ) equity ownership interest in the ohio valley electric corporation , and deferred taxes could change as the valuation process is finalized . dpler , dpl 2019s wholly-owned competitive retail electric service ( 201ccres 201d ) provider , will also likely have changes in its initial purchase price allocation for the valuation of its intangible assets for the trade name , and customer relationships and contracts . as noted in the table above , the preliminary purchase price allocation has resulted in the recognition of $ 2.5 billion of goodwill . factors primarily contributing to a price in excess of the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets include , but are not limited to : the ability to expand the u.s . utility platform in the mid-west market , the ability to capitalize on utility management experience gained from ipl , enhanced ability to negotiate with suppliers of fuel and energy , the ability to capture value associated with aes 2019 u.s . tax position , a well- positioned generating fleet , the ability of dpl to leverage its assembled workforce to take advantage of growth opportunities , etc . our ability to realize the benefit of dpl 2019s goodwill depends on the realization of expected benefits resulting from a successful integration of dpl into aes 2019 existing operations and our ability to respond to the changes in the ohio utility market . for example , utilities in ohio continue to face downward pressure on operating margins due to the evolving regulatory environment , which is moving towards a market-based competitive pricing mechanism . at the same time , the declining energy prices are also reducing operating . Question: what amount of the net assets acquired is from goodwill? Answer: 2489.0 Question: and what is the total of those net assets acquired? Answer: 3483.0 Question: what, then, is that amount as a percentage of this total? Answer: 0.71461 Question: in that same period, what was the combined total of the cash and the accounts receivable, in millions? Answer: 394.0 Question: adding the inventory, what becomes that total?

we are continuing to invest in people and infrastructure to grow our presence in lines of businesses globally where we see an opportunity for ace to grow market share at reasonable terms . we are also continuing to invest in our enterprise risk management capability , our systems and data environment , and our research and development capabilities . critical accounting estimates our consolidated financial statements include amounts that , either by their nature or due to requirements of accounting princi- ples generally accepted in the u.s . ( gaap ) , are determined using best estimates and assumptions . while we believe that the amounts included in our consolidated financial statements reflect our best judgment , actual amounts could ultimately materi- ally differ from those currently presented . we believe the items that require the most subjective and complex estimates are : 2022 unpaid loss and loss expense reserves , including long-tail asbestos and environmental ( a&e ) reserves ; 2022 future policy benefits reserves ; 2022 valuation of value of business acquired ( voba ) and amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and voba ; 2022 the assessment of risk transfer for certain structured insurance and reinsurance contracts ; 2022 reinsurance recoverable , including a provision for uncollectible reinsurance ; 2022 impairments to the carrying value of our investment portfolio ; 2022 the valuation of deferred tax assets ; 2022 the valuation of derivative instruments related to guaranteed minimum income benefits ( gmib ) ; and 2022 the valuation of goodwill . we believe our accounting policies for these items are of critical importance to our consolidated financial statements . the following discussion provides more information regarding the estimates and assumptions required to arrive at these amounts and should be read in conjunction with the sections entitled : prior period development , asbestos and environmental and other run-off liabilities , reinsurance recoverable on ceded reinsurance , investments , net realized gains ( losses ) , and other income and expense items . unpaid losses and loss expenses as an insurance and reinsurance company , we are required , by applicable laws and regulations and gaap , to establish loss and loss expense reserves for the estimated unpaid portion of the ultimate liability for losses and loss expenses under the terms of our policies and agreements with our insured and reinsured customers . the estimate of the liabilities includes provisions for claims that have been reported but unpaid at the balance sheet date ( case reserves ) and for future obligations from claims that have been incurred but not reported ( ibnr ) at the balance sheet date ( ibnr may also include a provision for additional devel- opment on reported claims in instances where the case reserve is viewed to be potentially insufficient ) . the reserves provide for liabilities that exist for the company as of the balance sheet date . the loss reserve also includes an estimate of expenses associated with processing and settling these unpaid claims ( loss expenses ) . at december 31 , 2008 , our gross unpaid loss and loss expense reserves were $ 37.2 billion and our net unpaid loss and loss expense reserves were $ 24.2 billion . with the exception of certain structured settlements , for which the timing and amount of future claim payments are reliably determi- nable , our loss reserves are not discounted for the time value of money . in connection with such structured settlements , we carry reserves of $ 106 million ( net of discount ) . the table below presents a roll-forward of our unpaid losses and loss expenses for the indicated periods .

leases , was $ 92 million , $ 80 million , and $ 72 million in 2002 , 2001 , and 2000 , respectively . future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of september 28 , 2002 , are as follows ( in millions ) : concentrations in the available sources of supply of materials and product although certain components essential to the company's business are generally available from multiple sources , other key components ( including microprocessors and application-specific integrated circuits , or ( "asics" ) ) are currently obtained by the company from single or limited sources . some other key components , while currently available to the company from multiple sources , are at times subject to industry- wide availability and pricing pressures . in addition , the company uses some components that are not common to the rest of the personal computer industry , and new products introduced by the company often initially utilize custom components obtained from only one source until the company has evaluated whether there is a need for and subsequently qualifies additional suppliers . if the supply of a key single-sourced component to the company were to be delayed or curtailed or in the event a key manufacturing vendor delays shipments of completed products to the company , the company's ability to ship related products in desired quantities and in a timely manner could be adversely affected . the company's business and financial performance could also be adversely affected depending on the time required to obtain sufficient quantities from the original source , or to identify and obtain sufficient quantities from an alternative source . continued availability of these components may be affected if producers were to decide to concentrate on the production of common components instead of components customized to meet the company's requirements . finally , significant portions of the company's cpus , logic boards , and assembled products are now manufactured by outsourcing partners , the majority of which occurs in various parts of asia . although the company works closely with its outsourcing partners on manufacturing schedules and levels , the company's operating results could be adversely affected if its outsourcing partners were unable to meet their production obligations . contingencies beginning on september 27 , 2001 , three shareholder class action lawsuits were filed in the united states district court for the northern district of california against the company and its chief executive officer . these lawsuits are substantially identical , and purport to bring suit on behalf of persons who purchased the company's publicly traded common stock between july 19 , 2000 , and september 28 , 2000 . the complaints allege violations of the 1934 securities exchange act and seek unspecified compensatory damages and other relief . the company believes these claims are without merit and intends to defend them vigorously . the company filed a motion to dismiss on june 4 , 2002 , which was heard by the court on september 13 , 2002 . on december 11 , 2002 , the court granted the company's motion to dismiss for failure to state a cause of action , with leave to plaintiffs to amend their complaint within thirty days . the company is subject to certain other legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been fully adjudicated . in the opinion of management , the company does not have a potential liability related to any current legal proceedings and claims that would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition , liquidity or results of operations . however , the results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty . should the company fail to prevail in any of these legal matters or should several of these legal matters be resolved against the company in the same reporting period , the operating results of a particular reporting period could be materially adversely affected . the parliament of the european union is working on finalizing the waste electrical and electronic equipment directive ( the directive ) . the directive makes producers of electrical goods , including personal computers , financially responsible for the collection , recycling , and safe disposal of past and future products . the directive must now be approved and implemented by individual european union governments by june 2004 , while the producers' financial obligations are scheduled to start june 2005 . the company's potential liability resulting from the directive related to past sales of its products and expenses associated with future sales of its product may be substantial . however , because it is likely that specific laws , regulations , and enforcement policies will vary significantly between individual european member states , it is not currently possible to estimate the company's existing liability or future expenses resulting from the directive . as the european union and its individual member states clarify specific requirements and policies with respect to the directive , the company will continue to assess its potential financial impact . similar legislation may be enacted in other geographies , including federal and state legislation in the united states , the cumulative impact of which could be significant . fiscal years . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>2003</td><td>$

operating profit for the segment decreased by 1% ( 1 % ) in 2010 compared to 2009 . for the year , operating profit declines in defense more than offset an increase in civil , while operating profit at intelligence essentially was unchanged . the $ 27 million decrease in operating profit at defense primarily was attributable to a decrease in the level of favorable performance adjustments on mission and combat systems activities in 2010 . the $ 19 million increase in civil principally was due to higher volume on enterprise civilian services . operating profit for the segment decreased by 3% ( 3 % ) in 2009 compared to 2008 . operating profit declines in civil and intelligence partially were offset by growth in defense . the decrease of $ 29 million in civil 2019s operating profit primarily was attributable to a reduction in the level of favorable performance adjustments on enterprise civilian services programs in 2009 compared to 2008 . the decrease in operating profit of $ 27 million at intelligence mainly was due to a reduction in the level of favorable performance adjustments on security solution activities in 2009 compared to 2008 . the increase in defense 2019s operating profit of $ 29 million mainly was due to volume and improved performance in mission and combat systems . the decrease in backlog during 2010 compared to 2009 mainly was due to higher sales volume on enterprise civilian service programs at civil , including volume associated with the dris 2010 program , and mission and combat system programs at defense . backlog decreased in 2009 compared to 2008 due to u.s . government 2019s exercise of the termination for convenience clause on the tsat mission operations system ( tmos ) contract at defense , which resulted in a $ 1.6 billion reduction in orders . this decline more than offset increased orders on enterprise civilian services programs at civil . we expect is&gs will experience a low single digit percentage decrease in sales for 2011 as compared to 2010 . this decline primarily is due to completion of most of the work associated with the dris 2010 program . operating profit in 2011 is expected to decline in relationship to the decline in sales volume , while operating margins are expected to be comparable between the years . space systems our space systems business segment is engaged in the design , research and development , engineering , and production of satellites , strategic and defensive missile systems , and space transportation systems , including activities related to the planned replacement of the space shuttle . government satellite programs include the advanced extremely high frequency ( aehf ) system , the mobile user objective system ( muos ) , the global positioning satellite iii ( gps iii ) system , the space-based infrared system ( sbirs ) , and the geostationary operational environmental satellite r-series ( goes-r ) . strategic and missile defense programs include the targets and countermeasures program and the fleet ballistic missile program . space transportation includes the nasa orion program and , through ownership interests in two joint ventures , expendable launch services ( united launch alliance , or ula ) and space shuttle processing activities for the u.s . government ( united space alliance , or usa ) . the space shuttle is expected to complete its final flight mission in 2011 and our involvement with its launch and processing activities will end at that time . space systems 2019 operating results included the following : ( in millions ) 2010 2009

declined in all three lines of business during the year . the $ 253 million decrease in space transportation principally was due to lower volume on the space shuttle external tank , commercial launch vehicle activity and other human space flight programs , which partially were offset by higher volume on the orion program . there were no commercial launches in 2010 compared to one commercial launch in 2009 . strategic & defensive missile systems ( s&dms ) sales declined $ 147 million principally due to lower volume on defensive missile programs . the $ 8 million sales decline in satellites primarily was attributable to lower volume on commercial satellites , which partially were offset by higher volume on government satellite activities . there was one commercial satellite delivery in 2010 and one commercial satellite delivery in 2009 . net sales for space systems increased 8% ( 8 % ) in 2009 compared to 2008 . during the year , sales growth at satellites and space transportation offset a decline in s&dms . the sales growth of $ 707 million in satellites was due to higher volume in government satellite activities , which partially was offset by lower volume in commercial satellite activities . there was one commercial satellite delivery in 2009 and two deliveries in 2008 . the increase in sales of $ 21 million in space transportation primarily was due to higher volume on the orion program , which more than offset a decline in the space shuttle 2019s external tank program . there was one commercial launch in both 2009 and 2008 . s&dms 2019 sales decreased by $ 102 million mainly due to lower volume on defensive missile programs , which more than offset growth in strategic missile programs. .

between the actual return on plan assets compared to the expected return on plan assets ( u.s . pension plans had an actual rate of return of 7.8 percent compared to an expected rate of return of 6.9 percent ) . 2022 2015 net mark-to-market loss of $ 179 million - primarily due to the difference between the actual return on plan assets compared to the expected return on plan assets ( u.s . pension plans had an actual rate of return of ( 2.0 ) percent compared to an expected rate of return of 7.4 percent ) which was partially offset by higher discount rates at the end of 2015 compared to 2014 . the net mark-to-market losses were in the following results of operations line items: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( millions of dollars )</td><td>years ended december 31 , 2017</td><td>years ended december 31 , 2016</td><td>years ended december 31 , 2015</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>cost of goods sold</td><td>$ -29 ( 29 )</td><td>$ 476</td><td>$

expenses</td><td>86</td><td>127</td><td>39</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>total</td><td>$ 301</td><td>$ 985</td><td>$ 179</td></tr></table> effective january 1 , 2018 , we adopted new accounting guidance issued by the fasb related to the presentation of net periodic pension and opeb costs . this guidance requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost . service cost is required to be reported in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period . the other components of net benefit cost are required to be reported outside the subtotal for income from operations . as a result , components of pension and opeb costs , other than service costs , will be reclassified from operating costs to other income/expense . this change will be applied retrospectively to prior years . in the fourth quarter of 2017 , the company reviewed and made changes to the mortality assumptions primarily for our u.s . pension plans which resulted in an overall increase in the life expectancy of plan participants . as of december 31 , 2017 these changes resulted in an increase in our liability for postemployment benefits of approximately $ 290 million . in the fourth quarter of 2016 , the company adopted new mortality improvement scales released by the soa for our u.s . pension and opeb plans . as of december 31 , 2016 , this resulted in an increase in our liability for postemployment benefits of approximately $ 200 million . in the first quarter of 2017 , we announced the closure of our gosselies , belgium facility . this announcement impacted certain employees that participated in a defined benefit pension plan and resulted in a curtailment and the recognition of termination benefits . in march 2017 , we recognized a net loss of $ 20 million for the curtailment and termination benefits . in addition , we announced the decision to phase out production at our aurora , illinois , facility , which resulted in termination benefits of $ 9 million for certain hourly employees that participate in our u.s . hourly defined benefit pension plan . beginning in 2016 , we elected to utilize a full yield curve approach in the estimation of service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows . service and interest costs in 2017 and 2016 were lower by $ 140 million and $ 180 million , respectively , under the new method than they would have been under the previous method . this change had no impact on our year-end defined benefit pension and opeb obligations or our annual net periodic benefit cost as the lower service and interest costs were entirely offset in the actuarial loss ( gain ) reported for the respective year . we expect our total defined benefit pension and opeb expense ( excluding the impact of mark-to-market gains and losses ) to decrease approximately $ 80 million in 2018 . this decrease is primarily due to a higher expected return on plan assets as a result of a higher asset base in 2018 . in general , our strategy for both the u.s . and the non-u.s . pensions includes ongoing alignment of our investments to our liabilities , while reducing risk in our portfolio . for our u.s . pension plans , our year-end 2017 asset allocation was 34 a0percent equities , 62 a0percent fixed income and 4 percent other . our current u.s . pension target asset allocation is 30 percent equities and 70 percent fixed income . the target allocation is revisited periodically to ensure it reflects our overall objectives . the u.s . plans are rebalanced to plus or minus 5 percentage points of the target asset allocation ranges on a monthly basis . the year-end 2017 asset allocation for our non-u.s . pension plans was 40 a0percent equities , 53 a0percent fixed income , 4 a0percent real estate and 3 percent other . the 2017 weighted-average target allocations for our non-u.s . pension plans was 38 a0percent equities , 54 a0percent fixed income , 5 a0percent real estate and 3 a0percent other . the target allocations for each plan vary based upon local statutory requirements , demographics of the plan participants and funded status . the frequency of rebalancing for the non-u.s . plans varies depending on the plan . contributions to our pension and opeb plans were $ 1.6 billion and $ 329 million in 2017 and 2016 , respectively . the 2017 contributions include a $ 1.0 billion discretionary contribution made to our u.s . pension plans in december 2017 . we expect to make approximately $ 365 million of contributions to our pension and opeb plans in 2018 . we believe we have adequate resources to fund both pension and opeb plans . 48 | 2017 form 10-k . Question: what was the total of pension and opb contributions in 2017, in millions? Answer: 1600.0 Question: and what was the change in that total from 2017 to 2018?

relative market position ; strong risk management ; strong capital ratios ; diverse liquidity sources , including the global capital markets and client deposits ; strong liquidity monitoring procedures ; and preparedness for current or future regulatory developments . high ratings limit borrowing costs and enhance our liquidity by providing assurance for unsecured funding and depositors , increasing the potential market for our debt and improving our ability to offer products , serve markets , and engage in transactions in which clients value high credit ratings . a downgrade or reduction of our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity by restricting our ability to access the capital .

long-term product offerings include active and index strategies . our active strategies seek to earn attractive returns in excess of a market benchmark or performance hurdle while maintaining an appropriate risk profile . we offer two types of active strategies : those that rely primarily on fundamental research and those that utilize primarily quantitative models to drive portfolio construction . in contrast , index strategies seek to closely track the returns of a corresponding index , generally by investing in substantially the same underlying securities within the index or in a subset of those securities selected to approximate a similar risk and return profile of the index . index strategies include both our non-etf index products and ishares etfs . althoughmany clients use both active and index strategies , the application of these strategies may differ . for example , clients may use index products to gain exposure to a market or asset class . in addition , institutional non-etf index assignments tend to be very large ( multi-billion dollars ) and typically reflect low fee rates . this has the potential to exaggerate the significance of net flows in institutional index products on blackrock 2019s revenues and earnings . equity year-end 2015 equity aum totaled $ 2.424 trillion , reflecting net inflows of $ 52.8 billion . net inflows included $ 78.4 billion and $ 4.2 billion into ishares and active products , respectively . ishares net inflows were driven by the core series and flows into broad developed market equity exposures , and active net inflows reflected demand for international equities . ishares and active net inflows were partially offset by non-etf index net outflows of $ 29.8 billion . blackrock 2019s effective fee rates fluctuate due to changes in aummix . approximately half of blackrock 2019s equity aum is tied to international markets , including emerging markets , which tend to have higher fee rates than u.s . equity strategies . accordingly , fluctuations in international equity markets , which do not consistently move in tandemwith u.s . markets , may have a greater impact on blackrock 2019s effective equity fee rates and revenues . fixed income fixed income aum ended 2015 at $ 1.422 trillion , increasing $ 28.7 billion , or 2% ( 2 % ) , from december 31 , 2014 . the increase in aum reflected $ 76.9 billion in net inflows , partially offset by $ 48.2 billion in net market depreciation and foreign exchange movements . in 2015 , active net inflows of $ 35.9 billion were diversified across fixed income offerings , with strong flows into our unconstrained , total return and high yield strategies . flagship funds in these product areas include our unconstrained strategic income opportunities and fixed income strategies funds , with net inflows of $ 7.0 billion and $ 3.7 billion , respectively ; our total return fund with net inflows of $ 2.7 billion ; and our high yield bond fund with net inflows of $ 3.5 billion . fixed income ishares net inflows of $ 50.3 billion were led by flows into core , corporate and high yield bond funds . active and ishares net inflows were partially offset by non-etf index net outflows of $ 9.3 billion . multi-asset class blackrock 2019s multi-asset class teammanages a variety of balanced funds and bespoke mandates for a diversified client base that leverages our broad investment expertise in global equities , bonds , currencies and commodities , and our extensive risk management capabilities . investment solutions might include a combination of long-only portfolios and alternative investments as well as tactical asset allocation overlays . component changes in multi-asset class aum for 2015 are presented below .
