decreased , primarily in the domestic market . input costs were lower , mainly for energy . planned maintenance downtime costs were $ 12 million higher in 2015 . operating profits in 2014 were negatively impacted by costs associated with the shutdown of our courtland , alabama mill . entering the first quarter of 2016 , sales volumes are expected to be up slightly compared with the fourth

however , the specific calibrations of various elements within the final lcr rule , such as the eligibility of assets as hqla , operational deposit requirements and net outflow requirements could have a material effect on our liquidity , funding and business activities , including the management and composition of our investment securities portfolio and our ability to extend committed contingent credit facilities to our clients . in january 2014 , the basel committee released a revised proposal with respect to the net stable funding ratio , or nsfr , which will establish a one-year liquidity standard representing the proportion of long-term assets funded by long-term stable funding , scheduled for global implementation in 2018 . the revised nsfr has made some favorable changes regarding the treatment of operationally linked deposits and a reduction in the funding required for certain securities . however , we continue to review the specifics of the basel committee's release and will be evaluating the u.s . implementation of this standard to analyze the impact and develop strategies for compliance . u.s . banking regulators have not yet issued a proposal to implement the nsfr . contractual cash obligations and other commitments the following table presents our long-term contractual cash obligations , in total and by period due as of december 31 , 2013 . these obligations were recorded in our consolidated statement of condition as of that date , except for operating leases and the interest portions of long-term debt and capital leases . contractual cash obligations . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>as of december 31 2013 ( in millions )</td><td>payments due by period total</td><td>payments due by period less than 1year</td><td>payments due by period 1-3years</td><td>payments due by period 4-5years</td><td>payments due by period over 5years</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>long-term debt ( 1 )</td><td>$ 10630</td><td>$ 1015</td><td>$ 2979</td><td>$ 2260</td><td>$ 4376</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>operating leases</td><td>923</td><td>208</td><td>286</td><td>209</td><td>220</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>capital lease obligations</td><td>1051</td><td>99</td><td>185</td><td>169</td><td>598</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>total contractual cash obligations</td><td>$ 12604</td><td>$ 1322</td><td>$ 3450</td><td>$ 2638</td><td>$ 5194</td></tr></table> ( 1 ) long-term debt excludes capital lease obligations ( presented as a separate line item ) and the effect of interest-rate swaps . interest payments were calculated at the stated rate with the exception of floating-rate debt , for which payments were calculated using the indexed rate in effect as of december 31 , 2013 . the table above does not include obligations which will be settled in cash , primarily in less than one year , such as client deposits , federal funds purchased , securities sold under repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings . additional information about deposits , federal funds purchased , securities sold under repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings is provided in notes 8 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8 of this form 10-k . the table does not include obligations related to derivative instruments because the derivative-related amounts recorded in our consolidated statement of condition as of december 31 , 2013 did not represent the amounts that may ultimately be paid under the contracts upon settlement . additional information about our derivative instruments is provided in note 16 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8 of this form 10-k . we have obligations under pension and other post-retirement benefit plans , more fully described in note 19 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8 of this form 10-k , which are not included in the above table . additional information about contractual cash obligations related to long-term debt and operating and capital leases is provided in notes 10 and 20 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8 of this form 10-k . our consolidated statement of cash flows , also included under item 8 of this form 10-k , provides additional liquidity information . the following table presents our commitments , other than the contractual cash obligations presented above , in total and by duration as of december 31 , 2013 . these commitments were not recorded in our consolidated statement of condition as of that date. .

certain mortgage loans citigroup has elected the fair value option for certain purchased and originated prime fixed-rate and conforming adjustable-rate first mortgage loans held-for-sale . these loans are intended for sale or securitization and are hedged with derivative instruments . the company has elected the fair value option to mitigate accounting mismatches in cases where hedge . <table

due</td><td>3</td><td>2</td></tr></table> the changes in fair values of these mortgage loans are reported in other revenue in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . the changes in fair value during the years ended december 31 , 2009 and 2008 due to instrument-specific credit risk resulted in a $ 10 million loss and $ 32 million loss , respectively . related interest income continues to be measured based on the contractual interest rates and reported as such in the consolidated statement of income . mortgage servicing rights the company accounts for mortgage servicing rights ( msrs ) at fair value . fair value for msrs is determined using an option-adjusted spread valuation approach . this approach consists of projecting servicing cash flows under multiple interest-rate scenarios and discounting these cash flows using risk-adjusted rates . the model assumptions used in the valuation of msrs include mortgage prepayment speeds and discount rates . the fair value of msrs is primarily affected by changes in prepayments that result from shifts in mortgage interest rates . in managing this risk , the company hedges a significant portion of the values of its msrs through the use of interest-rate derivative contracts , forward-purchase commitments of mortgage-backed securities , and purchased securities classified as trading . see note 23 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussions regarding the accounting and reporting of msrs . these msrs , which totaled $ 6.5 billion and $ 5.7 billion as of december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively , are classified as mortgage servicing rights on citigroup 2019s consolidated balance sheet . changes in fair value of msrs are recorded in commissions and fees in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . certain structured liabilities the company has elected the fair value option for certain structured liabilities whose performance is linked to structured interest rates , inflation or currency risks ( 201cstructured liabilities 201d ) . the company elected the fair value option , because these exposures are considered to be trading-related positions and , therefore , are managed on a fair value basis . these positions will continue to be classified as debt , deposits or derivatives ( trading account liabilities ) on the company 2019s consolidated balance sheet according to their legal form . for those structured liabilities classified as long-term debt for which the fair value option has been elected , the aggregate unpaid principal balance exceeded the aggregate fair value by $ 125 million and $ 671 million as of december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . the change in fair value for these structured liabilities is reported in principal transactions in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . related interest expense is measured based on the contractual interest rates and reported as such in the consolidated income statement . certain non-structured liabilities the company has elected the fair value option for certain non-structured liabilities with fixed and floating interest rates ( 201cnon-structured liabilities 201d ) . the company has elected the fair value option where the interest-rate risk of such liabilities is economically hedged with derivative contracts or the proceeds are used to purchase financial assets that will also be accounted for at fair value through earnings . the election has been made to mitigate accounting mismatches and to achieve operational simplifications . these positions are reported in short-term borrowings and long-term debt on the company 2019s consolidated balance sheet . for those non-structured liabilities classified as short-term borrowings for which the fair value option has been elected , the aggregate unpaid principal balance exceeded the aggregate fair value of such instruments by $ 220 million as of december 31 , 2008 . for non-structured liabilities classified as long-term debt for which the fair value option has been elected , the aggregate unpaid principal balance exceeded the aggregate fair value by $ 1542 million and $ 856 million as of december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . the change in fair value for these non-structured liabilities is reported in principal transactions in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . related interest expense continues to be measured based on the contractual interest rates and reported as such in the consolidated income statement . accounting is complex and to achieve operational simplifications . the fair value option was not elected for loans held-for-investment , as those loans are not hedged with derivative instruments . the following table provides information about certain mortgage loans carried at fair value: .

interest in the aosp , an oil sands mining and upgrading joint venture located in alberta , canada . the joint venture produces bitumen from oil sands deposits in the athabasca region utilizing mining techniques and upgrades the bitumen to synthetic crude oils and vacuum gas oil . the aosp 2019s mining and extraction assets are located near fort mcmurray , alberta , and include the muskeg river and the jackpine mines . gross design capacity of the combined mines is 255000 ( 51000 net to our interest ) barrels of bitumen per day . the aosp operations use established processes to mine oil sands deposits from an open-pit mine , extract the bitumen and upgrade it into synthetic crude oils . ore is mined using traditional truck and shovel mining techniques . the mined ore passes through primary crushers to reduce the ore chunks in size and is then sent to rotary breakers where the ore chunks are further reduced to smaller particles . the particles are combined with hot water to create slurry . the slurry moves through the extraction process where it separates into sand , clay and bitumen-rich froth . a solvent is added to the bitumen froth to separate out the remaining solids , water and heavy asphaltenes . the solvent washes the sand and produces clean bitumen that is required for the upgrader to run efficiently . the process yields a mixture of solvent and bitumen which is then transported from the mine to the scotford upgrader via the approximately 300-mile corridor pipeline . the aosp's scotford upgrader is located at fort saskatchewan , northeast of edmonton , alberta . the bitumen is upgraded at scotford using both hydrotreating and hydroconversion processes to remove sulfur and break the heavy bitumen molecules into lighter products . blendstocks acquired from outside sources are utilized in the production of our saleable products . the upgrader produces synthetic crude oils and vacuum gas oil . the vacuum gas oil is sold to an affiliate of the operator under a long-term contract at market-related prices , and the other products are sold in the marketplace . as of december 31 , 2014 , we own or have rights to participate in developed and undeveloped leases totaling approximately 163000 gross ( 33000 net ) acres . the underlying developed leases are held for the duration of the project , with royalties payable to the province of alberta . synthetic crude oil sales volumes for 2014 averaged 50 mbbld and net-of-royalty production was 41 mbbld . in december 2013 , a jackpine mine expansion project received conditional approval from the canadian government . the project includes additional mining areas , associated processing facilities and infrastructure . the government conditions relate to wildlife , the environment and aboriginal health issues . we will evaluate the potential expansion project and government conditions after infrastructure reliability initiatives are completed . the governments of alberta and canada have agreed to partially fund quest ccs for $ 865 million canadian . in the third quarter of 2012 , the energy and resources conservation board ( "ercb" ) , alberta's primary energy regulator at that time , conditionally approved the project and the aosp partners approved proceeding to construct and operate quest ccs . government funding commenced in 2012 and continued as milestones were achieved during the development , construction and operating phases . failure of the aosp to meet certain timing , performance and operating objectives may result in repaying some of the government funding . construction and commissioning of quest ccs is expected to be completed by late 2015. .

citigroup 2019s repurchases are primarily from government sponsored entities . the specific representations and warranties made by the company depend on the nature of the transaction and the requirements of the buyer . market conditions and credit-ratings agency requirements may also affect representations and warranties and the other provisions the company may agree to in loan sales . in the event of a breach of the representations and warranties , the company may be required to either repurchase the mortgage loans ( generally at unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest ) with the identified defects or indemnify ( 201cmake-whole 201d ) the investor or insurer . the company has recorded a repurchase reserve that is included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet . in the case of a repurchase , the company will bear any subsequent credit loss on the mortgage loans . the company 2019s representations and warranties are generally not subject to stated limits in amount or time of coverage . however , contractual liability arises only when the representations and warranties are breached and generally only when a loss results from the breach . in the case of a repurchase , the loan is typically considered a credit- impaired loan and accounted for under sop 03-3 , 201caccounting for certain loans and debt securities , acquired in a transfer 201d ( now incorporated into asc 310-30 , receivables 2014loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality ) . these repurchases have not had a material impact on nonperforming loan statistics , because credit-impaired purchased sop 03-3 loans are not included in nonaccrual loans . the company estimates its exposure to losses from its obligation to repurchase previously sold loans based on the probability of repurchase or make-whole and an estimated loss given repurchase or make-whole . this estimate is calculated separately by sales vintage ( i.e. , the year the loans were sold ) based on a combination of historical trends and forecasted repurchases and losses considering the : ( 1 ) trends in requests by investors for loan documentation packages to be reviewed ; ( 2 ) trends in recent repurchases and make-wholes ; ( 3 ) historical percentage of claims made as a percentage of loan documentation package requests ; ( 4 ) success rate in appealing claims ; ( 5 ) inventory of unresolved claims ; and ( 6 ) estimated loss given repurchase or make-whole , including the loss of principal , accrued interest , and foreclosure costs . the company does not change its estimation methodology by counterparty , but the historical experience and trends are considered when evaluating the overall reserve . the request for loan documentation packages is an early indicator of a potential claim . during 2009 , loan documentation package requests and the level of outstanding claims increased . in addition , our loss severity estimates increased during 2009 due to the impact of macroeconomic factors and recent experience . these factors contributed to a $ 493 million change in estimate for this reserve in 2009 . as indicated above , the repurchase reserve is calculated by sales vintage . the majority of the repurchases in 2009 were from the 2006 and 2007 sales vintages , which also represent the vintages with the largest loss- given-repurchase . an insignificant percentage of 2009 repurchases were from vintages prior to 2006 , and this is expected to decrease , because those vintages are later in the credit cycle . although early in the credit cycle , the company has experienced improved repurchase and loss-given-repurchase statistics from the 2008 and 2009 vintages . in the case of a repurchase of a credit-impaired sop 03-3 loan ( now incorporated into asc 310-30 ) , the difference between the loan 2019s fair value and unpaid principal balance at the time of the repurchase is recorded as a utilization of the repurchase reserve . payments to make the investor whole are also treated as utilizations and charged directly against the reserve . the provision for estimated probable losses arising from loan sales is recorded as an adjustment to the gain on sale , which is included in other revenue in the consolidated statement of income . a liability for representations and warranties is estimated when the company sells loans and is updated quarterly . any subsequent adjustment to the provision is recorded in other revenue in the consolidated statement of income . the activity in the repurchase reserve for the years ended december 31 , 2009 and 2008 is as follows: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in millions of dollars</td><td>2009</td><td>2008</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>balance beginning of the year</td><td>$ 75</td><td>$ 2</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>additions for new sales</td><td>33</td><td>23</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>change in estimate</td><td>493</td><td>59</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>utilizations</td><td>-119 ( 119 )</td><td>-9 ( 9 )</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>balance end of the year</td><td>$ 482</td><td>$ 75</td></tr></table> goodwill goodwill represents an acquired company 2019s acquisition cost over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired . goodwill is subject to annual impairment tests , whereby goodwill is allocated to the company 2019s reporting units and an impairment is deemed to exist if the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value . furthermore , on any business dispositions , goodwill is allocated to the business disposed of based on the ratio of the fair value of the business disposed of to the fair value of the reporting unit . intangible assets intangible assets 2014including core deposit intangibles , present value of future profits , purchased credit card relationships , other customer relationships , and other intangible assets , but excluding msrs 2014are amortized over their estimated useful lives . intangible assets deemed to have indefinite useful lives , primarily certain asset management contracts and trade names , are not amortized and are subject to annual impairment tests . an impairment exists if the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value . for other intangible assets subject to amortization , an impairment is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset . other assets and other liabilities other assets include , among other items , loans held-for-sale , deferred tax assets , equity-method investments , interest and fees receivable , premises and equipment , end-user derivatives in a net receivable position , repossessed assets , and other receivables. .

% ) higher in 2005 than in 2004 , and 4.6% ( 4.6 % ) higher than 2003 . favorable pricing momentum which began in 2004 carried over into the beginning of 2005 . demand , however , began to weaken across all grades as the year progressed , resulting in lower price realizations in the second and third quarters . however , prices stabilized as the year ended . total shipments for the year were 7.2% ( 7.2 % ) lower than in 2004 and 4.2% ( 4.2 % ) lower than in 2003 . to continue matching our productive capacity with customer demand , the business announced the perma- nent closure of three uncoated freesheet machines and took significant lack-of-order downtime during the period . demand showed some improvement toward the end of the year , bolstered by the introduction our new line of vision innovation paper products ( vip technologiestm ) , with improved brightness and white- ness . mill operations were favorable compared to last year , and the rebuild of the no . 1 machine at the east- over , south carolina mill was completed as planned in the fourth quarter . however , the favorable impacts of improved mill operations and lower overhead costs were more than offset by record high input costs for energy and wood and higher transportation costs compared to 2004 . the earnings decline in 2005 compared with 2003 was principally due to lower shipments , higher down- time and increased costs for wood , energy and trans- portation , partially offset by lower overhead costs and favorable mill operations . average sales price realizations for our european operations remained relatively stable during 2005 , but averaged 1% ( 1 % ) lower than in 2004 , and 6% ( 6 % ) below 2003 levels . sales volumes rose slightly , up 1% ( 1 % ) in 2005 com- pared with 2004 and 5% ( 5 % ) compared to 2003 . earnings were lower than in 2004 , reflecting higher wood and energy costs and a compression of margins due to un- favorable foreign currency exchange movements . earn- ings were also adversely affected by downtime related to the rebuild of three paper machines during the year . coated papers sales in the united states were $ 1.6 bil- lion in 2005 , compared with $ 1.4 billion in 2004 and $ 1.3 billion in 2003 . the business reported an operating profit in 2005 versus a small operating loss in 2004 . the earnings improvement was driven by higher average sales prices and improved mill operations . price realiza- tions in 2005 averaged 13% ( 13 % ) higher than 2004 . higher input costs for raw materials and energy partially offset the benefits from improved prices and operations . sales volumes were about 1% ( 1 % ) lower in 2005 versus 2004 . market pulp sales from our u.s . and european facilities totaled $ 757 million in 2005 compared with $ 661 mil- lion and $ 571 million in 2004 and 2003 , respectively . operating profits in 2005 were up 86% ( 86 % ) from 2004 . an operating loss had been reported in 2003 . higher aver- age prices and sales volumes , lower overhead costs and improved mill operations in 2005 more than offset in- creases in raw material , energy and chemical costs . u.s . softwood and hardwood pulp prices improved through the 2005 first and second quarters , then declined during the third quarter , but recovered somewhat toward year end . softwood pulp prices ended the year about 2% ( 2 % ) lower than 2004 , but were 15% ( 15 % ) higher than 2003 , while hardwood pulp prices ended the year about 15% ( 15 % ) higher than 2004 and 10% ( 10 % ) higher than 2003 . u.s . pulp sales volumes were 12% ( 12 % ) higher than in 2004 and 19% ( 19 % ) higher than in 2003 , reflecting increased global demand . euro- pean pulp volumes increased 15% ( 15 % ) and 2% ( 2 % ) compared with 2004 and 2003 , respectively , while average sales prices increased 4% ( 4 % ) and 11% ( 11 % ) compared with 2004 and 2003 , respectively . brazilian paper sales were $ 684 million in 2005 com- pared with $ 592 million in 2004 and $ 540 million in 2003 . sales volumes for uncoated freesheet paper , coated paper and wood chips were down from 2004 , but average price realizations improved for exported un- coated freesheet and coated groundwood paper grades . favorable currency translation , as yearly average real exchange rates versus the u.s . dollar were 17% ( 17 % ) higher in 2005 than in 2004 , positively impacted reported sales in u.s . dollars . average sales prices for domestic un- coated paper declined 4% ( 4 % ) in local currency versus 2004 , while domestic coated paper prices were down 3% ( 3 % ) . operating profits in 2005 were down 9% ( 9 % ) from 2004 , but were up 2% ( 2 % ) from 2003 . earnings in 2005 were neg- atively impacted by a weaker product and geographic sales mix for both uncoated and coated papers ,

in september 2007 , we reached a settlement with the united states department of justice in an ongoing investigation into financial relationships between major orthopaedic manufacturers and consulting orthopaedic surgeons . under the terms of the settlement , we paid a civil settlement amount of $ 169.5 million and we recorded an expense in that amount . no tax benefit has been recorded related to the settlement expense due to the uncertainty as to the tax treatment . we intend to pursue resolution of this uncertainty with taxing authorities , but are unable to ascertain the outcome or timing for such resolution at this time . for more information regarding the settlement , see note 15 . in june 2006 , the financial accounting standards board ( fasb ) issued interpretation no . 48 , accounting for uncertainty in income taxes 2013 an interpretation of fasb statement no . 109 , accounting for income taxes ( fin 48 ) . fin 48 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements . under fin 48 , we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities , based on the technical merits of the position . the tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement . fin 48 also provides guidance on derecognition , classification , interest and penalties on income taxes , accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures . we adopted fin 48 on january 1 , 2007 . prior to the adoption of fin 48 we had a long term tax liability for expected settlement of various federal , state and foreign income tax liabilities that was reflected net of the corollary tax impact of these expected settlements of $ 102.1 million , as well as a separate accrued interest liability of $ 1.7 million . as a result of the adoption of fin 48 , we are required to present the different components of such liability on a gross basis versus the historical net presentation . the adoption resulted in the financial statement liability for unrecognized tax benefits decreasing by $ 6.4 million as of january 1 , 2007 . the adoption resulted in this decrease in the liability as well as a reduction to retained earnings of $ 4.8 million , a reduction in goodwill of $ 61.4 million , the establishment of a tax receivable of $ 58.2 million , which was recorded in other current and non-current assets on our consolidated balance sheet , and an increase in an interest/penalty payable of $ 7.9 million , all as of january 1 , 2007 . therefore , after the adoption of fin 48 , the amount of unrecognized tax benefits is $ 95.7 million as of january 1 , 2007 , of which $ 28.6 million would impact our effective tax rate , if recognized . the amount of unrecognized tax benefits is $ 135.2 million as of december 31 , 2007 . of this amount , $ 41.0 million would impact our effective tax rate , if recognized . a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows ( in millions ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>balance at january 1 2007</td><td>$ 95.7</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>increases related to prior periods</td><td>27.4</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>decreases related to prior periods</td><td>-5.5 ( 5.5 )</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>increases related to current period</td><td>21.9</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>decreases related to settlements with taxing authorities</td><td>-1.3 ( 1.3 )</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>decreases related to lapse of statue of limitations</td><td>-3.0 ( 3.0 )</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>balance at december 31 2007</td><td>$ 135.2</td></tr></table> we recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of earnings , which is consistent with the recognition of these items in prior reporting periods . as of january 1 , 2007 , we recorded a liability of $ 9.6 million for accrued interest and penalties , of which $ 7.5 million would impact our effective tax rate , if recognized . the amount of this liability is $ 19.6 million as of december 31 , 2007 . of this amount , $ 14.7 million would impact our effective tax rate , if recognized . we expect that the amount of tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months ; however , we do not expect these changes will have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position . the u.s . federal statute of limitations remains open for the year 2003 and onward with years 2003 and 2004 currently under examination by the irs . it is reasonably possible that a resolution with the irs for the years 2003 through 2004 will be reached within the next twelve months , but we do not anticipate this would result in any material impact on our financial position . in addition , for the 1999 tax year of centerpulse , which we acquired in october 2003 , one issue remains in dispute . the resolution of this issue would not impact our effective tax rate , as it would be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill . state income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of 3 to 5 years after filing of the respective return . the state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states . we have various state income tax returns in the process of examination , administrative appeals or litigation . it is reasonably possible that such matters will be resolved in the next twelve months , but we do not anticipate that the resolution of these matters would result in any material impact on our results of operations or financial position . foreign jurisdictions have statutes of limitations generally ranging from 3 to 5 years . years still open to examination by foreign tax authorities in major jurisdictions include australia ( 2003 onward ) , canada ( 1999 onward ) , france ( 2005 onward ) , germany ( 2005 onward ) , italy ( 2003 onward ) , japan ( 2001 onward ) , puerto rico ( 2005 onward ) , singapore ( 2003 onward ) , switzerland ( 2004 onward ) , and the united kingdom ( 2005 onward ) . z i m m e r h o l d i n g s , i n c . 2 0 0 7 f o r m 1 0 - k a n n u a l r e p o r t notes to consolidated financial statements ( continued ) .

capital asset purchases associated with the retail segment were $ 294 million in 2007 , bringing the total capital asset purchases since inception of the retail segment to $ 1.0 billion . as of september 29 , 2007 , the retail segment had approximately 7900 employees and had outstanding operating lease commitments associated with retail store space and related facilities of $ 1.1 billion . the company would incur substantial costs if it were to close multiple retail stores . such costs could adversely affect the company 2019s financial condition and operating results . other segments the company 2019s other segments , which consists of its asia pacific and filemaker operations , experienced an increase in net sales of $ 406 million , or 30% ( 30 % ) during 2007 compared to 2006 . this increase related primarily to a 58% ( 58 % ) increase in sales of mac portable products and strong ipod sales in the company 2019s asia pacific region . during 2006 , net sales in other segments increased 35% ( 35 % ) compared to 2005 primarily due to an increase in sales of ipod and mac portable products . strong sales growth was a result of the introduction of the updated ipods featuring video-playing capabilities and the new intel-based mac portable products that translated to a 16% ( 16 % ) increase in mac unit sales during 2006 compared to 2005 . gross margin gross margin for each of the last three fiscal years are as follows ( in millions , except gross margin percentages ) : september 29 , september 30 , september 24 , 2007 2006 2005 . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>september 29 2007</td><td>september 30 2006</td><td>september 24 2005</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net sales</td><td>$ 24006</td><td>$ 19315</td><td>$ 13931</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>cost of sales</td><td>15852</td><td>13717</td><td>9889</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>gross margin</td><td>$ 8154</td><td>$ 5598</td><td>$ 4042</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>gross margin percentage</td><td>34.0% ( 34.0 % )</td><td>29.0% ( 29.0 % )</td><td>29.0% ( 29.0 % )</td></tr></table> gross margin percentage of 34.0% ( 34.0 % ) in 2007 increased significantly from 29.0% ( 29.0 % ) in 2006 . the primary drivers of this increase were more favorable costs on certain commodity components , including nand flash memory and dram memory , higher overall revenue that provided for more leverage on fixed production costs and a higher percentage of revenue from the company 2019s direct sales channels . the company anticipates that its gross margin and the gross margins of the personal computer , consumer electronics and mobile communication industries will be subject to pressure due to price competition . the company expects gross margin percentage to decline sequentially in the first quarter of 2008 primarily as a result of the full-quarter impact of product transitions and reduced pricing that were effected in the fourth quarter of 2007 , lower sales of ilife and iwork in their second quarter of availability , seasonally higher component costs , and a higher mix of indirect sales . these factors are expected to be partially offset by higher sales of the company 2019s mac os x operating system due to the introduction of mac os x version 10.5 leopard ( 2018 2018mac os x leopard 2019 2019 ) that became available in october 2007 . the foregoing statements regarding the company 2019s expected gross margin percentage are forward-looking . there can be no assurance that current gross margin percentage will be maintained or targeted gross margin percentage levels will be achieved . in general , gross margins and margins on individual products will remain under downward pressure due to a variety of factors , including continued industry wide global pricing pressures , increased competition , compressed product life cycles , potential increases in the cost and availability of raw material and outside manufacturing services , and a potential shift in the company 2019s sales mix towards products with lower gross margins . in response to these competitive pressures , the company expects it will continue to take pricing actions with respect to its products . gross margins could also be affected by the company 2019s ability to effectively manage product quality and warranty costs and to stimulate .

management 2019s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations ( continued ) detail with respect to our investment portfolio as of december 31 , 2014 and 2013 is provided in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8 of this form 10-k . loans and leases averaged $ 15.91 billion for the year ended 2014 , up from $ 13.78 billion in 2013 . the increase was mainly related to mutual fund lending and our continued investment in senior secured bank loans . mutual fund lending and senior secured bank loans averaged approximately $ 9.12 billion and $ 1.40 billion , respectively , for the year ended december 31 , 2014 compared to $ 8.16 billion and $ 170 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , respectively . average loans and leases also include short- duration advances . table 13 : u.s . and non-u.s . short-duration advances years ended december 31 . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( in millions )</td><td>2014</td><td>2013</td><td>2012</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>average u.s . short-duration advances</td><td>$ 2355</td><td>$ 2356</td><td>$ 1972</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>average non-u.s . short-duration advances</td><td>1512</td><td>1393</td><td>1393</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>average total short-duration advances</td><td>$ 3867</td><td>$ 3749</td><td>$ 3365</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>average short-durance advances to average loans and leases</td><td>24% ( 24 % )</td><td>27% ( 27 % )</td><td>29% ( 29 % )</td></tr></table> average u.s . short-duration advances $ 2355 $ 2356 $ 1972 average non-u.s . short-duration advances 1512 1393 1393 average total short-duration advances $ 3867 $ 3749 $ 3365 average short-durance advances to average loans and leases 24% ( 24 % ) 27% ( 27 % ) 29% ( 29 % ) the decline in proportion of the average daily short-duration advances to average loans and leases is primarily due to growth in the other segments of the loan and lease portfolio . short-duration advances provide liquidity to clients in support of their investment activities . although average short-duration advances for the year ended december 31 , 2014 increased compared to the year ended december 31 , 2013 , such average advances remained low relative to historical levels , mainly the result of clients continuing to hold higher levels of liquidity . average other interest-earning assets increased to $ 15.94 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2014 from $ 11.16 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2013 . the increased levels were primarily the result of higher levels of cash collateral provided in connection with our enhanced custody business . aggregate average interest-bearing deposits increased to $ 130.30 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2014 from $ 109.25 billion for year ended 2013 . the higher levels were primarily the result of increases in both u.s . and non-u.s . transaction accounts and time deposits . future transaction account levels will be influenced by the underlying asset servicing business , as well as market conditions , including the general levels of u.s . and non-u.s . interest rates . average other short-term borrowings increased to $ 4.18 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2014 from $ 3.79 billion for the year ended 2013 . the increase was the result of a higher level of client demand for our commercial paper . the decline in rates paid from 1.6% ( 1.6 % ) in 2013 to 0.1% ( 0.1 % ) in 2014 resulted from a reclassification of certain derivative contracts that hedge our interest-rate risk on certain assets and liabilities , which reduced interest revenue and interest expense . average long-term debt increased to $ 9.31 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2014 from $ 8.42 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2013 . the increase primarily reflected the issuance of $ 1.5 billion of senior and subordinated debt in may 2013 , $ 1.0 billion of senior debt issued in november 2013 , and $ 1.0 billion of senior debt issued in december 2014 . this is partially offset by the maturities of $ 500 million of senior debt in may 2014 and $ 250 million of senior debt in march 2014 . average other interest-bearing liabilities increased to $ 7.35 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2014 from $ 6.46 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , primarily the result of higher levels of cash collateral received from clients in connection with our enhanced custody business . several factors could affect future levels of our net interest revenue and margin , including the mix of client liabilities ; actions of various central banks ; changes in u.s . and non-u.s . interest rates ; changes in the various yield curves around the world ; revised or proposed regulatory capital or liquidity standards , or interpretations of those standards ; the amount of discount accretion generated by the former conduit securities that remain in our investment securities portfolio ; and the yields earned on securities purchased compared to the yields earned on securities sold or matured . based on market conditions and other factors , we continue to reinvest the majority of the proceeds from pay-downs and maturities of investment securities in highly-rated securities , such as u.s . treasury and agency securities , municipal securities , federal agency mortgage-backed securities and u.s . and non-u.s . mortgage- and asset-backed securities . the pace at which we continue to reinvest and the types of investment securities purchased will depend on the impact of market conditions and other factors over time . we expect these factors and the levels of global interest rates to influence what effect our reinvestment program will have on future levels of our net interest revenue and net interest margin. .

during 2014 , 2013 and 2012 , netherland , sewell & associates , inc . ( "nsai" ) prepared a certification of the prior year's reserves for the alba field in e.g . the nsai summary reports are filed as an exhibit to this annual report on form 10-k . members of the nsai team have multiple years of industry experience , having worked for large , international oil and gas companies before joining nsai . the senior technical advisor has over 35 years of practical experience in petroleum geosciences , with over 15 years experience in the estimation and evaluation of reserves . the second team member has over 10 years of practical experience in petroleum engineering , with 5 years experience in the estimation and evaluation of reserves . both are registered professional engineers in the state of texas . ryder scott company ( "ryder scott" ) also performed audits of the prior years' reserves of several of our fields in 2014 , 2013 and 2012 . their summary reports are filed as exhibits to this annual report on form 10-k . the team lead for ryder scott has over 20 years of industry experience , having worked for a major international oil and gas company before joining ryder scott . he is a member of spe , where he served on the oil and gas reserves committee , and is a registered professional engineer in the state of texas . changes in proved undeveloped reserves as of december 31 , 2014 , 728 mmboe of proved undeveloped reserves were reported , an increase of 101 mmboe from december 31 , 2013 . the following table shows changes in total proved undeveloped reserves for 2014 : ( mmboe ) . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>beginning of year</td><td>627</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>revisions of previous estimates</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>improved recovery</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>purchases of reserves in place</td><td>4</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>extensions discoveries and other additions</td><td>227</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>dispositions</td><td>-29 ( 29 )</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>transfers to proved developed</td><td>-103 ( 103 )</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>end of year</td><td>728</td></tr></table> significant additions to proved undeveloped reserves during 2014 included 121 mmboe in the eagle ford and 61 mmboe in the bakken shale plays due to development drilling . transfers from proved undeveloped to proved developed reserves included 67 mmboe in the eagle ford , 26 mmboe in the bakken and 1 mmboe in the oklahoma resource basins due to development drilling and completions . costs incurred in 2014 , 2013 and 2012 relating to the development of proved undeveloped reserves , were $ 3149 million , $ 2536 million and $ 1995 million . a total of 102 mmboe was booked as extensions , discoveries or other additions due to the application of reliable technology . technologies included statistical analysis of production performance , decline curve analysis , pressure and rate transient analysis , reservoir simulation and volumetric analysis . the statistical nature of production performance coupled with highly certain reservoir continuity or quality within the reliable technology areas and sufficient proved undeveloped locations establish the reasonable certainty criteria required for booking proved reserves . projects can remain in proved undeveloped reserves for extended periods in certain situations such as large development projects which take more than five years to complete , or the timing of when additional gas compression is needed . of the 728 mmboe of proved undeveloped reserves at december 31 , 2014 , 19 percent of the volume is associated with projects that have been included in proved reserves for more than five years . the majority of this volume is related to a compression project in e.g . that was sanctioned by our board of directors in 2004 . the timing of the installation of compression is being driven by the reservoir performance with this project intended to maintain maximum production levels . performance of this field since the board sanctioned the project has far exceeded expectations . estimates of initial dry gas in place increased by roughly 10 percent between 2004 and 2010 . during 2012 , the compression project received the approval of the e.g . government , allowing design and planning work to progress towards implementation , with completion expected by mid-2016 . the other component of alba proved undeveloped reserves is an infill well approved in 2013 and to be drilled in the second quarter of 2015 . proved undeveloped reserves for the north gialo development , located in the libyan sahara desert , were booked for the first time in 2010 . this development , which is anticipated to take more than five years to develop , is executed by the operator and encompasses a multi-year drilling program including the design , fabrication and installation of extensive liquid handling and gas recycling facilities . anecdotal evidence from similar development projects in the region lead to an expected project execution time frame of more than five years from the time the reserves were initially booked . interruptions associated with the civil unrest in 2011 and third-party labor strikes and civil unrest in 2013-2014 have also extended the project duration . as of december 31 , 2014 , future development costs estimated to be required for the development of proved undeveloped crude oil and condensate , ngls , natural gas and synthetic crude oil reserves related to continuing operations for the years 2015 through 2019 are projected to be $ 2915 million , $ 2598 million , $ 2493 million , $ 2669 million and $ 2745 million. .

e nt e r g y c o r p o r a t i o n a n d s u b s i d i a r i e s 2 0 0 7 n an increase of $ 16 million in fossil operating costs due to the purchase of the attala plant in january 2006 and the perryville plant coming online in july 2005 ; n an increase of $ 12 million related to storm reserves . this increase does not include costs associated with hurricanes katrina and rita ; and n an increase of $ 12 million due to a return to normal expense patterns in 2006 versus the deferral or capitalization of storm costs in 2005 . other operation and maintenance expenses increased for non- utility nuclear from $ 588 million in 2005 to $ 637 million in 2006 primarily due to the timing of refueling outages , increased benefit and insurance costs , and increased nrc fees . taxes other than income taxes taxes other than income taxes increased for the utility from $ 322 million in 2005 to $ 361 million in 2006 primarily due to an increase in city franchise taxes in arkansas due to a change in 2006 in the accounting for city franchise tax revenues as directed by the apsc . the change results in an increase in taxes other than income taxes with a corresponding increase in rider revenue , resulting in no effect on net income . also contributing to the increase was higher franchise tax expense at entergy gulf states , inc . as a result of higher gross revenues in 2006 and a customer refund in 2005 . other income other income increased for the utility from $ 111 million in 2005 to $ 156 million in 2006 primarily due to carrying charges recorded on storm restoration costs . other income increased for non-utility nuclear primarily due to miscellaneous income of $ 27 million ( $ 16.6 million net-of-tax ) resulting from a reduction in the decommissioning liability for a plant as a result of a revised decommissioning cost study and changes in assumptions regarding the timing of when decommissioning of a plant will begin . other income increased for parent & other primarily due to a gain related to its entergy-koch investment of approximately $ 55 million ( net-of-tax ) in the fourth quarter of 2006 . in 2004 , entergy-koch sold its energy trading and pipeline businesses to third parties . at that time , entergy received $ 862 million of the sales proceeds in the form of a cash distribution by entergy-koch . due to the november 2006 expiration of contingencies on the sale of entergy-koch 2019s trading business , and the corresponding release to entergy-koch of sales proceeds held in escrow , entergy received additional cash distributions of approximately $ 163 million during the fourth quarter of 2006 and recorded a gain of approximately $ 55 million ( net-of-tax ) . entergy expects future cash distributions upon liquidation of the partnership will be less than $ 35 million . interest charges interest charges increased for the utility and parent & other primarily due to additional borrowing to fund the significant storm restoration costs associated with hurricanes katrina and rita . discontinued operations in april 2006 , entergy sold the retail electric portion of the competitive retail services business operating in the electric reliability council of texas ( ercot ) region of texas , and now reports this portion of the business as a discontinued operation . earnings for 2005 were negatively affected by $ 44.8 million ( net-of-tax ) of discontinued operations due to the planned sale . this amount includes a net charge of $ 25.8 million ( net-of-tax ) related to the impairment reserve for the remaining net book value of the competitive retail services business 2019 information technology systems . results for 2006 include an $ 11.1 million gain ( net-of-tax ) on the sale of the retail electric portion of the competitive retail services business operating in the ercot region of texas . income taxes the effective income tax rates for 2006 and 2005 were 27.6% ( 27.6 % ) and 36.6% ( 36.6 % ) , respectively . the lower effective income tax rate in 2006 is primarily due to tax benefits , net of reserves , resulting from the tax capital loss recognized in connection with the liquidation of entergy power international holdings , entergy 2019s holding company for entergy-koch . also contributing to the lower rate for 2006 is an irs audit settlement that allowed entergy to release from its tax reserves all settled issues relating to 1996-1998 audit cycle . 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 2019s 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 2019s capitalization is balanced between equity and debt , as shown in the following table . the increase in the debt to capital percentage from 2006 to 2007 is primarily the result of additional borrowings under entergy corporation 2019s revolving credit facility , along with a decrease in shareholders 2019 equity primarily due to repurchases of common stock . this increase in the debt to capital percentage is in line with entergy 2019s financial and risk management aspirations . the decrease in the debt to capital percentage from 2005 to 2006 is the result of an increase in shareholders 2019 equity , primarily due to an increase in retained earnings , partially offset by repurchases of common stock. . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2007</td><td>2006</td><td>2005</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net debt to net capital at the end of the

the company has also encountered various quality issues on its aircraft carrier construction and overhaul programs and its virginia-class submarine construction program at its newport news location . these primarily involve matters related to filler metal used in pipe welds identified in 2007 , and issues associated with non-nuclear weld inspection and the installation of weapons handling equipment on certain submarines , and certain purchased material quality issues identified in 2009 . the company does not believe that resolution of these issues will have a material effect upon its consolidated financial position , results of operations or cash flows . environmental matters 2014the estimated cost to complete environmental remediation has been accrued where it is probable that the company will incur such costs in the future to address environmental conditions at currently or formerly owned or leased operating facilities , or at sites where it has been named a potentially responsible party ( 201cprp 201d ) by the environmental protection agency , or similarly designated by another environmental agency , and these costs can be estimated by management . these accruals do not include any litigation costs related to environmental matters , nor do they include amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations . to assess the potential impact on the company 2019s consolidated financial statements , management estimates the range of reasonably possible remediation costs that could be incurred by the company , taking into account currently available facts on each site as well as the current state of technology and prior experience in remediating contaminated sites . these estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect changes in facts and technical and legal circumstances . management estimates that as of december 31 , 2011 , the probable future costs for environmental remediation is $ 3 million , which is accrued in other current liabilities . factors that could result in changes to the company 2019s estimates include : modification of planned remedial actions , increases or decreases in the estimated time required to remediate , changes to the determination of legally responsible parties , discovery of more extensive contamination than anticipated , changes in laws and regulations affecting remediation requirements , and improvements in remediation technology . should other prps not pay their allocable share of remediation costs , the company may have to incur costs exceeding those already estimated and accrued . in addition , there are certain potential remediation sites where the costs of remediation cannot be reasonably estimated . although management cannot predict whether new information gained as projects progress will materially affect the estimated liability accrued , management does not believe that future remediation expenditures will have a material effect on the company 2019s consolidated financial position , results of operations or cash flows . financial arrangements 2014in the ordinary course of business , hii uses standby letters of credit issued by commercial banks and surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to support the company 2019s self-insured workers 2019 compensation plans . at december 31 , 2011 , there were $ 121 million of standby letters of credit issued but undrawn and $ 297 million of surety bonds outstanding related to hii . u.s . government claims 2014from time to time , the u.s . government advises the company of claims and penalties concerning certain potential disallowed costs . when such findings are presented , the company and u.s . government representatives engage in discussions to enable hii to evaluate the merits of these claims as well as to assess the amounts being claimed . the company does not believe that the outcome of any such matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position , results of operations or cash flows . collective bargaining agreements 2014the company believes that it maintains good relations with its approximately 38000 employees of which approximately 50% ( 50 % ) are covered by a total of 10 collective bargaining agreements . the company expects to renegotiate renewals of each of its collective bargaining agreements between 2013 and 2015 as they approach expiration . collective bargaining agreements generally expire after three to five years and are subject to renegotiation at that time . it is not expected that the results of these negotiations , either individually or in the aggregate , will have a material effect on the company 2019s consolidated results of operations . operating leases 2014rental expense for operating leases was $ 44 million in 2011 , $ 44 million in 2010 , and $ 48 million in 2009 . these amounts are net of immaterial amounts of sublease rental income . minimum rental commitments under long- term

united parcel service , inc . and subsidiaries management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations liquidity and capital resources as of december 31 , 2017 , we had $ 4.069 billion in cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities . we believe that our current cash position , access to the long-term debt capital markets and cash flow generated from operations should be adequate not only for operating requirements but also to enable us to complete our capital expenditure programs and to fund dividend payments , share repurchases and long-term debt payments through the next several years . in addition , we have funds available from our commercial paper program and the ability to obtain alternative sources of financing . we regularly evaluate opportunities to optimize our capital structure , including through issuances of debt to refinance existing debt and to fund ongoing cash needs . cash flows from operating activities the following is a summary of the significant sources ( uses ) of cash from operating activities ( amounts in millions ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2017</td><td>2016</td><td>2015</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net income</td><td>$ 4910</td><td>$ 3431</td><td>$ 4844</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>non-cash

activities</td><td>$ 1479</td><td>$ 6473</td><td>$ 7430</td></tr></table> ( 1 ) represents depreciation and amortization , gains and losses on derivative transactions and foreign exchange , deferred income taxes , provisions for uncollectible accounts , pension and postretirement benefit expense , stock compensation expense and other non-cash items . cash from operating activities remained strong throughout 2015 to 2017 . most of the variability in operating cash flows during the 2015 to 2017 time period relates to the funding of our company-sponsored pension and postretirement benefit plans ( and related cash tax deductions ) . except for discretionary or accelerated fundings of our plans , contributions to our company- sponsored pension plans have largely varied based on whether any minimum funding requirements are present for individual pension plans . 2022 we made discretionary contributions to our three primary company-sponsored u.s . pension plans totaling $ 7.291 , $ 2.461 and $ 1.030 billion in 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively . 2022 the remaining contributions from 2015 to 2017 were largely due to contributions to our international pension plans and u.s . postretirement medical benefit plans . apart from the transactions described above , operating cash flow was impacted by changes in our working capital position , payments for income taxes and changes in hedge margin payables and receivables . cash payments for income taxes were $ 1.559 , $ 2.064 and $ 1.913 billion for 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , and were primarily impacted by the timing of current tax deductions . the net hedge margin collateral ( paid ) /received from derivative counterparties was $ ( 732 ) , $ ( 142 ) and $ 170 million during 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , due to settlements and changes in the fair value of the derivative contracts used in our currency and interest rate hedging programs . as of december 31 , 2017 , the total of our worldwide holdings of cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities were $ 4.069 billion , of which approximately $ 1.800 billion was held by foreign subsidiaries . the amount of cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities held by our u.s . and foreign subsidiaries fluctuates throughout the year due to a variety of factors , including the timing of cash receipts and disbursements in the normal course of business . cash provided by operating activities in the u.s . continues to be our primary source of funds to finance domestic operating needs , capital expenditures , share repurchases and dividend payments to shareowners . as a result of the tax act , all cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities held by foreign subsidiaries are generally available for distribution to the u.s . without any u.s . federal income taxes . any such distributions may be subject to foreign withholding and u.s . state taxes . when amounts earned by foreign subsidiaries are expected to be indefinitely reinvested , no accrual for taxes is provided. .

goodwill is assigned to one or more reporting segments on the date of acquisition . we evaluate goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of each of our reporting segments to its carrying value , including the associated goodwill . to determine the fair values , we use the market approach based on comparable publicly traded companies in similar lines of businesses and the income approach based on estimated discounted future cash flows . our cash flow assumptions consider historical and forecasted revenue , operating costs and other relevant factors . we amortize intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives and review them for impairment whenever an impairment indicator exists . we continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of our long-lived assets , including our intangible assets may not be recoverable . when such events or changes in circumstances occur , we assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows . if the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets , we recognize an impairment loss based on any excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets . we did not recognize any intangible asset impairment charges in fiscal 2012 , 2011 or 2010 . our intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives of 1 to 13 years . amortization is based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset will be consumed . the weighted average useful lives of our intangible assets was as follows : weighted average useful life ( years ) . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>weighted averageuseful life ( years )</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>purchased technology</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>customer contracts and relationships</td><td>10</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>trademarks</td><td>7</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>acquired rights to use technology</td><td>9</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>localization</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>other intangibles</td><td>3</td></tr></table> software development costs capitalization of software development costs for software to be sold , leased , or otherwise marketed begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility , which is generally the completion of a working prototype that has been certified as having no critical bugs and is a release candidate . amortization begins once the software is ready for its intended use , generally based on the pattern in which the economic benefits will be consumed . to date , software development costs incurred between completion of a working prototype and general availability of the related product have not been material . internal use software we capitalize costs associated with customized internal-use software systems that have reached the application development stage . such capitalized costs include external direct costs utilized in developing or obtaining the applications and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees , who are directly associated with the development of the applications . capitalization of such costs begins when the preliminary project stage is complete and ceases at the point in which the project is substantially complete and is ready for its intended purpose . income taxes we use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes . under this method , income tax expense is recognized for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year . in addition , deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities , and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards . we record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount for which realization is more likely than not . table of contents adobe systems incorporated notes to consolidated financial statements ( continued ) .

available information . the company 2019s annual reports on form 10-k , quarterly reports on form 10-q , current reports on form 8- k , proxy statements and amendments to those reports are available free of charge through the company 2019s internet website at http://www.everestregroup.com as soon as reasonably practicable after such reports are electronically filed with the securities and exchange commission ( the 201csec 201d ) . item 1a . risk factors in addition to the other information provided in this report , the following risk factors should be considered when evaluating an investment in our securities . if the circumstances contemplated by the individual risk factors materialize , our business , financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected and the trading price of our common shares could decline significantly . risks relating to our business fluctuations in the financial markets could result in investment losses . prolonged and severe disruptions in the overall public debt and equity markets , such as occurred during 2008 , could result in significant realized and unrealized losses in our investment portfolio . although financial markets have significantly improved since 2008 , they could deteriorate in the future . there could also be disruption in individual market sectors , such as occurred in the energy sector during the fourth quarter of 2014 . such declines in the financial markets could result in significant realized and unrealized losses on investments and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations , equity , business and insurer financial strength and debt ratings . our results could be adversely affected by catastrophic events . we are exposed to unpredictable catastrophic events , including weather-related and other natural catastrophes , as well as acts of terrorism . any material reduction in our operating results caused by the occurrence of one or more catastrophes could inhibit our ability to pay dividends or to meet our interest and principal payment obligations . subsequent to april 1 , 2010 , we define a catastrophe as an event that causes a loss on property exposures before reinsurance of at least $ 10.0 million , before corporate level reinsurance and taxes . prior to april 1 , 2010 , we used a threshold of $ 5.0 million . by way of illustration , during the past five calendar years , pre-tax catastrophe losses , net of contract specific reinsurance but before cessions under corporate reinsurance programs , were as follows: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>calendar year:</td><td>pre-tax catastrophe losses</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>( dollars in millions )</td><td>-</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>2014</td><td>$ 62.2</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>2013</td><td>195.0</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>2012</td><td>410.0</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>2011</td><td>1300.4</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>2010</td><td>571.1</td></tr></table> our losses from future catastrophic events could exceed our projections . we use projections of possible losses from future catastrophic events of varying types and magnitudes as a strategic underwriting tool . we use these loss projections to estimate our potential catastrophe losses in certain geographic areas and decide on the placement of retrocessional coverage or other actions to limit the extent of potential losses in a given geographic area . these loss projections are approximations , reliant on a mix of quantitative and qualitative processes , and actual losses may exceed the projections by a material amount , resulting in a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. .

note 9 . retirement plan we maintain a defined contribution pension plan covering full-time shoreside employees who have completed the minimum period of continuous service . annual contributions to the plan are based on fixed percentages of participants 2019 salaries and years of service , not to exceed certain maximums . pension cost was $ 13.9 million , $ 12.8 million and $ 12.2 million for the years ended december 31 , 2006 , 2005 and 2004 , respectively . note 10 . income taxes we and the majority of our subsidiaries are currently exempt from united states corporate tax on income from the international opera- tion of ships pursuant to section 883 of the internal revenue code . income tax expense related to our remaining subsidiaries was not significant for the years ended december 31 , 2006 , 2005 and 2004 . final regulations under section 883 were published on august 26 , 2003 , and were effective for the year ended december 31 , 2005 . these regulations confirmed that we qualify for the exemption provid- ed by section 883 , but also narrowed the scope of activities which are considered by the internal revenue service to be incidental to the international operation of ships . the activities listed in the regula- tions as not being incidental to the international operation of ships include income from the sale of air and other transportation such as transfers , shore excursions and pre and post cruise tours . to the extent the income from such activities is earned from sources within the united states , such income will be subject to united states taxa- tion . the application of these new regulations reduced our net income for the years ended december 31 , 2006 and december 31 , 2005 by approximately $ 6.3 million and $ 14.0 million , respectively . note 11 . financial instruments the estimated fair values of our financial instruments are as follows ( in thousands ) : . <table

) ( 78 ) the reported fair values are based on a variety of factors and assumptions . accordingly , the fair values may not represent actual values of the financial instruments that could have been realized as of december 31 , 2006 or 2005 , or that will be realized in the future and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual sale or settlement . our financial instruments are not held for trading or speculative purposes . our exposure under foreign currency contracts , interest rate and fuel swap agreements is limited to the cost of replacing the contracts in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the contracts , all of which are currently our lending banks . to minimize this risk , we select counterparties with credit risks acceptable to us and we limit our exposure to an individual counterparty . furthermore , all foreign currency forward contracts are denominated in primary currencies . cash and cash equivalents the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments . long-term debt the fair values of our senior notes and senior debentures were esti- mated by obtaining quoted market prices . the fair values of all other debt were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on market rates available to us for similar debt with the same remaining maturities . foreign currency contracts the fair values of our foreign currency forward contracts were esti- mated using current market prices for similar instruments . our expo- sure to market risk for fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relates to six ship construction contracts and forecasted transactions . we use foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates . as of december 31 , 2006 , we had foreign currency forward contracts in a notional amount of $ 3.8 billion maturing through 2009 . as of december 31 , 2006 , the fair value of our foreign currency forward contracts related to the six ship construction contracts , which are designated as fair value hedges , was a net unrealized gain of approximately $ 106.3 mil- lion . at december 31 , 2005 , the fair value of our foreign currency for- ward contracts related to three ship construction contracts , designated as fair value hedges , was a net unrealized loss of approx- imately $ 103.4 million . the fair value of our foreign currency forward contracts related to the other ship construction contract at december 31 , 2005 , which was designated as a cash flow hedge , was an unre- alized loss , of approximately $ 7.8 million . at december 31 , 2006 , approximately 11% ( 11 % ) of the aggregate cost of the ships was exposed to fluctuations in the euro exchange rate . r o y a l c a r i b b e a n c r u i s e s l t d . 3 5 notes to the consolidated financial statements ( continued ) 51392_financials-v9.qxp 6/7/07 3:40 pm page

table of contents ( 4 ) the decline in cash flows was driven by the timing of inventory purchases at the end of 2014 versus 2013 . in order to manage our working capital and operating cash needs , we monitor our cash conversion cycle , defined as days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable plus days of supply in inventory minus days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable , based on a rolling three-month average . components of our cash conversion cycle are as follows: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( in days )</td><td>december 31 , 2015</td><td>december 31 , 2014</td><td>december 31 , 2013</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>days of sales outstanding ( dso ) ( 1 )</td><td>48</td><td>42</td><td>44</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>days of supply in inventory ( dio ) ( 2 )</td><td>13</td><td>13</td><td>14</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>days of purchases outstanding ( dpo ) ( 3 )</td><td>-40 ( 40 )</td><td>-34 ( 34 )</td><td>-35 ( 35 )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>cash conversion cycle</td><td>21</td><td>21</td><td>23</td></tr></table> ( 1 ) represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of trade accounts receivable , net at the end of the period divided by average daily net sales for the same three-month period . also incorporates components of other miscellaneous receivables . ( 2 ) represents the rolling three-month average of the balance of merchandise inventory at the end of the period divided by average daily cost of goods sold for the same three-month period . ( 3 ) represents the rolling three-month average of the combined balance of accounts payable-trade , excluding cash overdrafts , and accounts payable-inventory financing at the end of the period divided by average daily cost of goods sold for the same three-month period . the cash conversion cycle remained at 21 days at december 31 , 2015 and december 31 , 2014 . the increase in dso was primarily driven by a higher accounts receivable balance at december 31 , 2015 driven by higher public segment sales where customers generally take longer to pay than customers in our corporate segment , slower government payments in certain states due to budget issues and an increase in net sales and related accounts receivable for third-party services such as software assurance and warranties . these services have an unfavorable impact on dso as the receivable is recognized on the balance sheet on a gross basis while the corresponding sales amount in the statement of operations is recorded on a net basis . these services have a favorable impact on dpo as the payable is recognized on the balance sheet without a corresponding cost of sale in the statement of operations because the cost paid to the vendor or third-party service provider is recorded as a reduction to net sales . in addition to the impact of these services on dpo , dpo also increased due to the mix of payables with certain vendors that have longer payment terms . the cash conversion cycle decreased to 21 days at december 31 , 2014 compared to 23 days at december 31 , 2013 , primarily driven by improvement in dso . the decline in dso was primarily driven by improved collections and early payments from certain customers . additionally , the timing of inventory receipts at the end of 2014 had a favorable impact on dio and an unfavorable impact on dpo . investing activities net cash used in investing activities increased $ 189.6 million in 2015 compared to 2014 . the increase was primarily due to the completion of the acquisition of kelway by purchasing the remaining 65% ( 65 % ) of its outstanding common stock on august 1 , 2015 . additionally , capital expenditures increased $ 35.1 million to $ 90.1 million from $ 55.0 million for 2015 and 2014 , respectively , primarily for our new office location and an increase in spending related to improvements to our information technology systems . net cash used in investing activities increased $ 117.7 million in 2014 compared to 2013 . we paid $ 86.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 to acquire a 35% ( 35 % ) non-controlling interest in kelway . additionally , capital expenditures increased $ 7.9 million to $ 55.0 million from $ 47.1 million in 2014 and 2013 , respectively , primarily for improvements to our information technology systems during both years . financing activities net cash used in financing activities increased $ 114.5 million in 2015 compared to 2014 . the increase was primarily driven by share repurchases during the year ended december 31 , 2015 which resulted in an increase in cash used for financing activities of $ 241.3 million . for more information on our share repurchase program , see item 5 , 201cmarket for registrant 2019s common equity , related stockholder matters and issuer purchases of equity securities . 201d the increase was partially offset by the changes in accounts payable-inventory financing , which resulted in an increase in cash provided for financing activities of $ 20.4 million , and the net impact of our debt transactions which resulted in cash outflows of $ 7.1 million and $ 145.9 million during the years .

certain mortgage loans citigroup has elected the fair value option for certain purchased and originated prime fixed-rate and conforming adjustable-rate first mortgage loans held-for-sale . these loans

value during the years ended december 31 , 2009 and 2008 due to instrument-specific credit risk resulted in a $ 10 million loss and $ 32 million loss , respectively . related interest income continues to be measured based on the contractual interest rates and reported as such in the consolidated statement of income . mortgage servicing rights the company accounts for mortgage servicing rights ( msrs ) at fair value . fair value for msrs is determined using an option-adjusted spread valuation approach . this approach consists of projecting servicing cash flows under multiple interest-rate scenarios and discounting these cash flows using risk-adjusted rates . the model assumptions used in the valuation of msrs include mortgage prepayment speeds and discount rates . the fair value of msrs is primarily affected by changes in prepayments that result from shifts in mortgage interest rates . in managing this risk , the company hedges a significant portion of the values of its msrs through the use of interest-rate derivative contracts , forward-purchase commitments of mortgage-backed securities , and purchased securities classified as trading . see note 23 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussions regarding the accounting and reporting of msrs . these msrs , which totaled $ 6.5 billion and $ 5.7 billion as of december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively , are classified as mortgage servicing rights on citigroup 2019s consolidated balance sheet . changes in fair value of msrs are recorded in commissions and fees in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . certain structured liabilities the company has elected the fair value option for certain structured liabilities whose performance is linked to structured interest rates , inflation or currency risks ( 201cstructured liabilities 201d ) . the company elected the fair value option , because these exposures are considered to be trading-related positions and , therefore , are managed on a fair value basis . these positions will continue to be classified as debt , deposits or derivatives ( trading account liabilities ) on the company 2019s consolidated balance sheet according to their legal form . for those structured liabilities classified as long-term debt for which the fair value option has been elected , the aggregate unpaid principal balance exceeded the aggregate fair value by $ 125 million and $ 671 million as of december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . the change in fair value for these structured liabilities is reported in principal transactions in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . related interest expense is measured based on the contractual interest rates and reported as such in the consolidated income statement . certain non-structured liabilities the company has elected the fair value option for certain non-structured liabilities with fixed and floating interest rates ( 201cnon-structured liabilities 201d ) . the company has elected the fair value option where the interest-rate risk of such liabilities is economically hedged with derivative contracts or the proceeds are used to purchase financial assets that will also be accounted for at fair value through earnings . the election has been made to mitigate accounting mismatches and to achieve operational simplifications . these positions are reported in short-term borrowings and long-term debt on the company 2019s consolidated balance sheet . for those non-structured liabilities classified as short-term borrowings for which the fair value option has been elected , the aggregate unpaid principal balance exceeded the aggregate fair value of such instruments by $ 220 million as of december 31 , 2008 . for non-structured liabilities classified as long-term debt for which the fair value option has been elected , the aggregate unpaid principal balance exceeded the aggregate fair value by $ 1542 million and $ 856 million as of december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . the change in fair value for these non-structured liabilities is reported in principal transactions in the company 2019s consolidated statement of income . related interest expense continues to be measured based on the contractual interest rates and reported as such in the consolidated income statement . accounting is complex and to achieve operational simplifications . the fair value option was not elected for loans held-for-investment , as those loans are not hedged with derivative instruments . the following

concentration of credit risk credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed to perform as contracted . the company believes the likelihood of incurring material losses due to concentration of credit risk is remote . the principal financial instruments subject to credit risk are as follows : cash and cash equivalents - the company maintains cash deposits with major banks , which from time to time may exceed insured limits . the possibility of loss related to financial condition of major banks has been deemed minimal . additionally , the company 2019s investment policy limits exposure to concentrations of credit risk and changes in market conditions . accounts receivable - a large number of customers in diverse industries and geographies , as well as the practice of establishing reasonable credit lines , limits credit risk . based on historical trends and experiences , the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to cover potential credit risk losses . foreign currency and interest rate contracts and derivatives - exposure to credit risk is limited by internal policies and active monitoring of counterparty risks . in addition , the company uses a diversified group of major international banks and financial institutions as counterparties . the company does not anticipate nonperformance by any of these counterparties . cash and cash equivalents cash equivalents include highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased . accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts accounts receivable are carried at their face amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts . accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and generally do not bear interest . the company estimates the balance of allowance for doubtful accounts by analyzing accounts receivable balances by age and applying historical write-off and collection trend rates . the company 2019s estimates include separately providing for customer balances based on specific circumstances and credit conditions , and when it is deemed probable that the balance is uncollectible . account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined the receivable will not be recovered . the company 2019s allowance for doubtful accounts balance also includes an allowance for the expected return of products shipped and credits related to pricing or quantities shipped of $ 15 million as of december 31 , 2015 and 2014 and $ 14 million as of december 31 , 2013 . returns and credit activity is recorded directly to sales . the following table summarizes the activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( millions )</td><td>2015</td><td>2014</td><td>2013</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>beginning balance</td><td>$ 77</td><td>$ 81</td><td>$ 73</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>bad debt expense</td><td>26</td><td>23</td><td>28</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>write-offs</td><td>-22 ( 22 )</td><td>-20 ( 20 )</td><td>-21 ( 21 )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>other ( a )</td><td>-6 ( 6 )</td><td>-7 ( 7 )</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>ending balance</td><td>$ 75</td><td>$ 77</td><td>$ 81</td></tr></table> ( a ) other amounts are primarily the effects of changes in currency translations and the impact of allowance for returns and credits . inventory valuations inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market . certain u.s . inventory costs are determined on a last-in , first-out ( lifo ) basis . lifo inventories represented 39% ( 39 % ) and 37% ( 37 % ) of consolidated inventories as of december 31 , 2015 and 2014 , respectively . lifo inventories include certain legacy nalco u.s . inventory acquired at fair value as part of the nalco merger . all other inventory costs are determined using either the average cost or first-in , first-out ( fifo ) methods . inventory values at fifo , as shown in note 5 , approximate replacement during the fourth quarter of 2015 , the company improved estimates related to its inventory reserves and product costing , resulting in a net pre-tax charge of approximately $ 6 million . separately , the actions resulted in charge of $ 20.6 million related to inventory reserve calculations , partially offset by a gain of $ 14.5 million related to the capitalization of certain cost components into inventory . both of these items are reflected in note 3. .

this amount represents the portion of the unused commitment or other contin- gent exposure that is expected , based on average portfolio histori- cal experience , to become drawn upon in an event of a default by an obligor . the loan-equivalent amounts of the firm 2019s lending- related commitments were $ 189.9 billion and $ 179.8 billion as of december 31 , 2010 and 2009 , respectively . country exposure the firm 2019s wholesale portfolio includes country risk exposures to both developed and emerging markets . the firm seeks to diversify its country exposures , including its credit-related lending , trading and investment activities , whether cross-border or locally funded . country exposure under the firm 2019s internal risk management ap- proach is reported based on the country where the assets of the obligor , counterparty or guarantor are located . exposure amounts , including resale agreements , are adjusted for collateral and for credit enhancements ( e.g. , guarantees and letters of credit ) pro- vided by third parties ; 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. .

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 . although many 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 , or may use a combination of index strategies to target active returns . 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 2016 equity aum totaled $ 2.657 trillion , reflecting net inflows of $ 51.4 billion . net inflows included $ 74.9 billion into ishares , driven by net inflows into the core ranges and broad developed and emerging market equities . ishares net inflows were partially offset by active and non-etf index net outflows of $ 20.2 billion and $ 3.3 billion , respectively . blackrock 2019s effective fee rates fluctuate due to changes in aum mix . 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 may not consistently move in tandem with u.s . markets , have a greater impact on blackrock 2019s effective equity fee rates and revenues . fixed income fixed income aum ended 2016 at $ 1.572 trillion , reflecting net inflows of $ 120.0 billion . in 2016 , active net inflows of $ 16.6 billion were diversified across fixed income offerings , and included strong inflows from insurance clients . fixed income ishares net inflows of $ 59.9 billion were led by flows into the core ranges , emerging market , high yield and corporate bond funds . non-etf index net inflows of $ 43.4 billion were driven by demand for liability-driven investment solutions . multi-asset blackrock 2019s multi-asset team manages 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 aum for 2016 are presented below .

management 2019s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations 2013 ( continued ) ( amounts in millions , except per share amounts ) operating income increased during 2017 when compared to 2016 , comprised of a decrease in revenue of $ 42.1 , as discussed above , a decrease in salaries and related expenses of $ 28.0 and a decrease in office and general expenses of $ 16.9 . the decrease in salaries and related expenses was primarily due to lower discretionary bonuses and incentive expense as well as a decrease in base salaries , benefits and tax . the decrease in office and general expenses was primarily due to decreases in adjustments to contingent acquisition obligations , as compared to the prior year . operating income increased during 2016 when compared to 2015 due to an increase in revenue of $ 58.8 , as discussed above , and a decrease in office and general expenses of $ 3.7 , partially offset by an increase in salaries and related expenses of $ 38.8 . the increase in salaries and related expenses was attributable to an increase in base salaries , benefits and tax primarily due to increases in our workforce to support business growth over the last twelve months . the decrease in office and general expenses was primarily due to lower production expenses related to pass-through costs , which are also reflected in revenue , for certain projects in which we acted as principal that decreased in size or did not recur during the current year . corporate and other certain corporate and other charges are reported as a separate line item within total segment operating income and include corporate office expenses , as well as shared service center and certain other centrally managed expenses that are not fully allocated to operating divisions . salaries and related expenses include salaries , long-term incentives , annual bonuses and other miscellaneous benefits for corporate office employees . office and general expenses primarily include professional fees related to internal control compliance , financial statement audits and legal , information technology and other consulting services that are engaged and managed through the corporate office . office and general expenses also include rental expense and depreciation of leasehold improvements for properties occupied by corporate office employees . a portion of centrally managed expenses are allocated to operating divisions based on a formula that uses the planned revenues of each of the operating units . amounts allocated also include specific charges for information technology-related projects , which are allocated based on utilization . corporate and other expenses decreased during 2017 by $ 20.6 to $ 126.6 compared to 2016 , primarily due to lower annual incentive expense . corporate and other expenses increased during 2016 by $ 5.4 to $ 147.2 compared to 2015 . liquidity and capital resources cash flow overview the following tables summarize

table of contents adobe inc . notes to consolidated financial statements ( continued ) goodwill , purchased intangibles and other long-lived assets goodwill is assigned to one or more reporting segments on the date of acquisition . we review our goodwill for impairment annually during our second quarter of each fiscal year and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any one of our reporting units below its respective carrying amount . in performing our goodwill impairment test , we first perform a qualitative assessment , which requires that we consider events or circumstances including macroeconomic conditions , industry and market considerations , cost factors , overall financial performance , changes in management or key personnel , changes in strategy , changes in customers , changes in the composition or carrying amount of a reporting segment 2019s net assets and changes in our stock price . if , after assessing the totality of events or circumstances , we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair values of our reporting segments are greater than the carrying amounts , then the quantitative goodwill impairment test is not performed . if the qualitative assessment indicates that the quantitative analysis should be performed , we then evaluate goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of each of our reporting segments to its carrying value , including the associated goodwill . to determine the fair values , we use the equal weighting of the market approach based on comparable publicly traded companies in similar lines of businesses and the income approach based on estimated discounted future cash flows . our cash flow assumptions consider historical and forecasted revenue , operating costs and other relevant factors . we completed our annual goodwill impairment test in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 . we determined , after performing a qualitative review of each reporting segment , that it is more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting segments substantially exceeds the respective carrying amounts . accordingly , there was no indication of impairment and the quantitative goodwill impairment test was not performed . we did not identify any events or changes in circumstances since the performance of our annual goodwill impairment test that would require us to perform another goodwill impairment test during the fiscal year . we amortize intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives and review them for impairment whenever an impairment indicator exists . we continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of our long-lived assets , including our intangible assets may not be recoverable . when such events or changes in circumstances occur , we assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows . if the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets , we recognize an impairment loss based on any excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets . we did not recognize any intangible asset impairment charges in fiscal 2018 , 2017 or 2016 . during fiscal 2018 , our intangible assets were amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from 1 to 14 years . amortization is based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset will be consumed or on a straight-line basis when the consumption pattern is not apparent . the weighted average useful lives of our intangible assets were as follows : weighted average useful life ( years ) . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>weighted averageuseful life ( years )</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>purchased technology</td><td>6</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>customer contracts and relationships</td><td>9</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>trademarks</td><td>9</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>acquired rights to use technology</td><td>10</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>backlog</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>other intangibles</td><td>4</td></tr></table> income taxes we use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes . under this method , income tax expense is recognized for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year . in addition , deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities , and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards . we record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount for which realization is more likely than not. .

royal caribbean cruises ltd . 79 notes to the consolidated financial statements in 2012 , we determined the implied fair value of good- will for the pullmantur reporting unit was $ 145.5 mil- lion and recognized an impairment charge of $ 319.2 million based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model further discussed below . this impair- ment charge was recognized in earnings during the fourth quarter of 2012 and is reported within impair- ment of pullmantur related assets within our consoli- dated statements of comprehensive income ( loss ) . during the fourth quarter of 2014 , we performed a qualitative assessment of whether it was more-likely- than-not that our royal caribbean international reporting unit 2019s fair value was less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impair- ment test . the qualitative analysis included assessing the impact of certain factors such as general economic conditions , limitations on accessing capital , changes in forecasted operating results , changes in fuel prices and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates . based on our qualitative assessment , we concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the estimated fair value of the royal caribbean international reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and thus , we did not pro- ceed to the two-step goodwill impairment test . no indicators of impairment exist primarily because the reporting unit 2019s fair value has consistently exceeded its carrying value by a significant margin , its financial performance has been solid in the face of mixed economic environments and forecasts of operating results generated by the reporting unit appear suffi- cient to support its carrying value . we also performed our annual impairment review of goodwill for pullmantur 2019s reporting unit during the fourth quarter of 2014 . we did not perform a quali- tative assessment but instead proceeded directly to the two-step goodwill impairment test . we estimated the fair value of the pullmantur reporting unit using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model . the principal assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model are projected operating results , weighted- average cost of capital , and terminal value . signifi- cantly impacting these assumptions are the transfer of vessels from our other cruise brands to pullmantur . the discounted cash flow model used our 2015 pro- jected operating results as a base . to that base , we added future years 2019 cash flows assuming multiple rev- enue and expense scenarios that reflect the impact of different global economic environments beyond 2015 on pullmantur 2019s reporting unit . we assigned a probability to each revenue and expense scenario . we discounted the projected cash flows using rates specific to pullmantur 2019s reporting unit based on its weighted-average cost of capital . based on the probability-weighted discounted cash flows , we deter- mined the fair value of the pullmantur reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 52% ( 52 % ) resulting in no impairment to pullmantur 2019s goodwill . pullmantur is a brand targeted primarily at the spanish , portuguese and latin american markets , with an increasing focus on latin america . the persistent economic instability in these markets has created sig- nificant uncertainties in forecasting operating results and future cash flows used in our impairment analyses . we continue to monitor economic events in these markets for their potential impact on pullmantur 2019s business and valuation . further , the estimation of fair value utilizing discounted expected future cash flows includes numerous uncertainties which require our significant judgment when making assumptions of expected revenues , operating costs , marketing , sell- ing and administrative expenses , interest rates , ship additions and retirements as well as assumptions regarding the cruise vacation industry 2019s competitive environment and general economic and business conditions , among other factors . if there are changes to the projected future cash flows used in the impairment analyses , especially in net yields or if certain transfers of vessels from our other cruise brands to the pullmantur fleet do not take place , it is possible that an impairment charge of pullmantur 2019s reporting unit 2019s goodwill may be required . of these factors , the planned transfers of vessels to the pullmantur fleet is most significant to the projected future cash flows . if the transfers do not occur , we will likely fail step one of the impairment test . note 4 . intangible assets intangible assets are reported in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets and consist of the follow- ing ( in thousands ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2014</td><td>2013</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>indefinite-life intangible asset 2014pullmantur trademarks and trade names</td><td>$

and the relief-from-royalty method to compare the fair value of these indefinite-lived intan- gible assets to its carrying value . the royalty rate used is based on comparable royalty agreements in the tourism and hospitality industry . we used a dis- count rate comparable to the rate used in valuing the pullmantur reporting unit in our goodwill impairment test . based on the results of our
