in addition to the collateral amounts reflected in the table above , at december 31 , 2010 and 2009 , the firm had received liquid securi- ties and other cash collateral in the amount of $ 16.5 billion and $ 15.5 billion , respectively , and had posted $ 10.9 billion and $ 11.7 billion , respectively . the firm also receives and delivers collateral at the initiation of derivative transactions , which is available as secu- rity against potential exposure that could arise should the fair value of the transactions move in the firm 2019s or client 2019s favor , respectively . furthermore , the firm and its counterparties hold collateral related to contracts that have a non-daily call frequency for collateral to be posted , and collateral that the firm or a counterparty has agreed to return but has not yet settled as of the reporting date . at december 31 , 2010 and 2009 , the firm had received $ 18.0 billion and $ 16.9 billion , respectively , and delivered $ 8.4 billion and $ 5.8 billion , respectively , of such additional collateral . these amounts were not netted against the derivative receivables and payables in the table above , because , at an individual counterparty level , the collateral exceeded the fair value exposure at december 31 , 2010 and 2009 . credit derivatives credit derivatives are financial instruments whose value is derived from the credit risk associated with the debt of a third-party issuer ( the reference entity ) and which allow one party ( the protection purchaser ) to transfer that risk to another party ( the protection seller ) . credit derivatives expose the protection purchaser to the creditworthiness of the protection seller , as the protection seller is required to make payments under the contract when the reference entity experiences a credit event , such as a bankruptcy , a failure to pay its obligation or a restructuring . the seller of credit protection receives a premium for providing protection but has the risk that the underlying instrument referenced in the contract will be subject to a credit event . the firm is both a purchaser and seller of protection in the credit derivatives market and uses these derivatives for two primary purposes . first , in its capacity as a market-maker in the dealer/client business , the firm actively risk manages a portfolio of credit derivatives by purchasing and selling credit protection , pre- dominantly on corporate debt obligations , to meet the needs of customers . as a seller of protection , the firm 2019s exposure to a given reference entity may be offset partially , or entirely , with a contract to purchase protection from another counterparty on the same or similar reference entity . second , the firm uses credit derivatives to mitigate credit risk associated with its overall derivative receivables and traditional commercial credit lending exposures ( loans and unfunded commitments ) as well as to manage its exposure to residential and commercial mortgages . see note 3 on pages 170 2013 187 of this annual report for further information on the firm 2019s mortgage-related exposures . in accomplishing the above , the firm uses different types of credit derivatives . following is a summary of various types of credit derivatives . credit default swaps credit derivatives may reference the credit of either a single refer- ence entity ( 201csingle-name 201d ) or a broad-based index . the firm purchases and sells protection on both single- name and index- reference obligations . single-name cds and index cds contracts are otc derivative contracts . single-name cds are used to manage the default risk of a single reference entity , while index cds con- tracts are used to manage the credit risk associated with the broader credit markets or credit market segments . like the s&p 500 and other market indices , a cds index comprises a portfolio of cds across many reference entities . new series of cds indices are periodically established with a new underlying portfolio of reference entities to reflect changes in the credit markets . if one of the refer- ence entities in the index experiences a credit event , then the reference entity that defaulted is removed from the index . cds can also be referenced against specific portfolios of reference names or against customized exposure levels based on specific client de- mands : for example , to provide protection against the first $ 1 million of realized credit losses in a $ 10 million portfolio of expo- sure . such structures are commonly known as tranche cds . for both single-name cds contracts and index cds contracts , upon the occurrence of a credit event , under the terms of a cds contract neither party to the cds contract has recourse to the reference entity . the protection purchaser has recourse to the protection seller for the difference between the face value of the cds contract and the fair value of the reference obligation at the time of settling the credit derivative contract , also known as the recovery value . the protection purchaser does not need to hold the debt instrument of the underlying reference entity in order to receive amounts due under the cds contract when a credit event occurs . credit-related notes a credit-related note is a funded credit derivative where the issuer of the credit-related note purchases from the note investor credit protec- tion on a referenced entity . under the contract , the investor pays the issuer the par value of the note at the inception of the transaction , and in return , the issuer pays periodic payments to the investor , based on the credit risk of the referenced entity . the issuer also repays the investor the par value of the note at maturity unless the reference entity experiences a specified credit event . if a credit event .

Context: period . the discount reflects our incremental borrowing rate , which matches the lifetime of the liability . significant changes in the discount rate selected or the estimations of sublease income in the case of leases could impact the amounts recorded . other associated costs with restructuring activities we recognize other costs associated with restructuring activities as they are incurred , including moving costs and consulting and legal fees . pensions we sponsor defined benefit pension plans throughout the world . our most significant plans are located in the u.s. , the u.k. , the netherlands and canada . our significant u.s. , u.k . and canadian pension plans are closed to new entrants . we have ceased crediting future benefits relating to salary and service for our u.s. , u.k . and canadian plans . recognition of gains and losses and prior service certain changes in the value of the obligation and in the value of plan assets , which may occur due to various factors such as changes in the discount rate and actuarial assumptions , actual demographic experience and/or plan asset performance are not immediately recognized in net income . such changes are recognized in other comprehensive income and are amortized into net income as part of the net periodic benefit cost . unrecognized gains and losses that have been deferred in other comprehensive income , as previously described , are amortized into compensation and benefits expense as a component of periodic pension expense based on the average expected future service of active employees for our plans in the netherlands and canada , or the average life expectancy of the u.s . and u.k . plan members . after the effective date of the plan amendments to cease crediting future benefits relating to service , unrecognized gains and losses are also be based on the average life expectancy of members in the canadian plans . we amortize any prior service expense or credits that arise as a result of plan changes over a period consistent with the amortization of gains and losses . as of december 31 , 2013 , our pension plans have deferred losses that have not yet been recognized through income in the consolidated financial statements . we amortize unrecognized actuarial losses outside of a corridor , which is defined as 10% ( 10 % ) of the greater of market-related value of plan assets or projected benefit obligation . to the extent not offset by future gains , incremental amortization as calculated above will continue to affect future pension expense similarly until fully amortized . the following table discloses our combined experience loss , the number of years over which we are amortizing the experience loss , and the estimated 2014 amortization of loss by country ( amounts in millions ) : .
||u.k .|u.s .|other|
|combined experience loss|$ 2012|$ 1219|$ 402|
|amortization period ( in years )|29|26|11 - 23|
|estimated 2014 amortization of loss|$ 53|$ 44|$ 10|
the unrecognized prior service cost at december 31 , 2013 was $ 27 million in the u.k . and other plans . for the u.s . pension plans we use a market-related valuation of assets approach to determine the expected return on assets , which is a component of net periodic benefit cost recognized in the consolidated statements of income . this approach recognizes 20% ( 20 % ) of any gains or losses in the current year's value of market-related assets , with the remaining 80% ( 80 % ) spread over the next four years . as this approach recognizes gains or losses over a five-year period , the future value of assets and therefore , our net periodic benefit cost will be impacted as previously deferred gains or losses are recorded . as of december 31 , 2013 , the market-related value of assets was $ 1.8 billion . we do not use the market-related valuation approach to determine the funded status of the u.s . plans recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position . instead , we record and present the funded status in the consolidated statements of financial position based on the fair value of the plan assets . as of december 31 , 2013 , the fair value of plan assets was $ 1.9 billion . our non-u.s . plans use fair value to determine expected return on assets. .

|year ended december 31 dollars in millions|2009|2008|
|net interest income|$ 9083|$ 3854|
|net interest margin|3.82% ( 3.82 % )|3.37% ( 3.37 % )|
changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction of the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and related yields , interest-bearing liabilities and related rates paid , and noninterest-bearing sources of funding . see statistical information 2013 analysis of year-to-year changes in net interest ( unaudited ) income and average consolidated balance sheet and net interest analysis in item 8 of this report for additional information . higher net interest income for 2009 compared with 2008 reflected the increase in average interest-earning assets due to national city and the improvement in the net interest margin . the net interest margin was 3.82% ( 3.82 % ) for 2009 and 3.37% ( 3.37 % ) for 2008 . the following factors impacted the comparison : 2022 a decrease in the rate accrued on interest-bearing liabilities of 97 basis points . the rate accrued on interest-bearing deposits , the largest component , decreased 107 basis points . 2022 these factors were partially offset by a 45 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets . the yield on loans , which represented the largest portion of our earning assets in 2009 , decreased 30 basis points . 2022 in addition , the impact of noninterest-bearing sources of funding decreased 7 basis points . for comparing to the broader market , the average federal funds rate was .16% ( .16 % ) for 2009 compared with 1.94% ( 1.94 % ) for 2008 . we expect our net interest income for 2010 will likely be modestly lower as a result of cash recoveries on purchased impaired loans in 2009 and additional run-off of higher- yielding assets , which could be mitigated by rising interest rates . this assumes our current expectations for interest rates and economic conditions 2013 we include our current economic assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements in the cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information section of this item 7 . noninterest income summary noninterest income was $ 7.1 billion for 2009 and $ 2.4 billion for 2008 . noninterest income for 2009 included the following : 2022 the gain on blackrock/bgi transaction of $ 1.076 billion , 2022 net credit-related other-than-temporary impairments ( otti ) on debt and equity securities of $ 577 million , 2022 net gains on sales of securities of $ 550 million , 2022 gains on hedging of residential mortgage servicing rights of $ 355 million , 2022 valuation and sale income related to our commercial mortgage loans held for sale , net of hedges , of $ 107 million , 2022 gains of $ 103 million related to our blackrock ltip shares adjustment in the first quarter , and net losses on private equity and alternative investments of $ 93 million . noninterest income for 2008 included the following : 2022 net otti on debt and equity securities of $ 312 million , 2022 gains of $ 246 million related to our blackrock ltip shares adjustment , 2022 valuation and sale losses related to our commercial mortgage loans held for sale , net of hedges , of $ 197 million , 2022 impairment and other losses related to private equity and alternative investments of $ 180 million , 2022 income from hilliard lyons totaling $ 164 million , including the first quarter gain of $ 114 million from the sale of this business , 2022 net gains on sales of securities of $ 106 million , and 2022 a gain of $ 95 million related to the redemption of a portion of our visa class b common shares related to visa 2019s march 2008 initial public offering . additional analysis asset management revenue increased $ 172 million to $ 858 million in 2009 , compared with $ 686 million in 2008 . this increase reflected improving equity markets , new business generation and a shift in assets into higher yielding equity investments during the second half of 2009 . assets managed totaled $ 103 billion at both december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , including the impact of national city . the asset management group section of the business segments review section of this item 7 includes further discussion of assets under management . consumer services fees totaled $ 1.290 billion in 2009 compared with $ 623 million in 2008 . service charges on deposits totaled $ 950 million for 2009 and $ 372 million for 2008 . both increases were primarily driven by the impact of the national city acquisition . reduced consumer spending .

Context: on october 21 , 2004 , the hartford declared a dividend on its common stock of $ 0.29 per share payable on january 3 , 2005 to shareholders of record as of december 1 , 2004 . the hartford declared $ 331 and paid $ 325 in dividends to shareholders in 2004 , declared $ 300 and paid $ 291 in dividends to shareholders in 2003 , declared $ 262 and paid $ 257 in 2002 . aoci - aoci increased by $ 179 as of december 31 , 2004 compared with december 31 , 2003 . the increase in aoci is primarily the result of life 2019s adoption of sop 03-1 , which resulted in a $ 292 cumulative effect for unrealized gains on securities in the first quarter of 2004 related to the reclassification of investments from separate account assets to general account assets , partially offset by net unrealized losses on cash-flow hedging instruments . the funded status of the company 2019s pension and postretirement plans is dependent upon many factors , including returns on invested assets and the level of market interest rates . declines in the value of securities traded in equity markets coupled with declines in long- term interest rates have had a negative impact on the funded status of the plans . as a result , the company recorded a minimum pension liability as of december 31 , 2004 , and 2003 , which resulted in an after-tax reduction of stockholders 2019 equity of $ 480 and $ 375 respectively . this minimum pension liability did not affect the company 2019s results of operations . for additional information on stockholders 2019 equity and aoci see notes 15 and 16 , respectively , of notes to consolidated financial statements . cash flow 2004 2003 2002 .

2004 compared to 2003 2014 cash from operating activities primarily reflects premium cash flows in excess of claim payments . the decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to the $ 1.15 billion settlement of the macarthur litigation in 2004 . cash provided by financing activities decreased primarily due to lower proceeds from investment and universal life-type contracts as a result of the adoption of sop 03-1 , decreased capital raising activities , repayment of commercial paper and early retirement of junior subordinated debentures in 2004 . the decrease in cash from financing activities and operating cash flows invested long-term accounted for the majority of the change in cash used for investing activities . 2003 compared to 2002 2014 the increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of strong premium cash flows . financing activities increased primarily due to capital raising activities related to the 2003 asbestos reserve addition and decreased due to repayments on long-term debt and lower proceeds from investment and universal life-type contracts . the increase in cash from financing activities accounted for the majority of the change in cash used for investing activities . operating cash flows in each of the last three years have been adequate to meet liquidity requirements . equity markets for a discussion of the potential impact of the equity markets on capital and liquidity , see the capital markets risk management section under 201cmarket risk 201d . ratings ratings are an important factor in establishing the competitive position in the insurance and financial services marketplace . there can be no assurance that the company's ratings will continue for any given period of time or that they will not be changed . in the event the company's ratings are downgraded , the level of revenues or the persistency of the company's business may be adversely impacted . on august 4 , 2004 , moody 2019s affirmed the company 2019s and hartford life , inc . 2019s a3 senior debt ratings as well as the aa3 insurance financial strength ratings of both its property-casualty and life insurance operating subsidiaries . in addition , moody 2019s changed the outlook for all of these ratings from negative to stable . since the announcement of the suit filed by the new york attorney general 2019s office against marsh & mclennan companies , inc. , and marsh , inc . on october 14 , 2004 , the major independent ratings agencies have indicated that they continue to monitor developments relating to the suit . on october 22 , 2004 , standard & poor 2019s revised its outlook on the u.s . property/casualty commercial lines sector to negative from stable . on november 23 , 2004 , standard & poor 2019s revised its outlook on the financial strength and credit ratings of the property-casualty insurance subsidiaries to negative from stable . the outlook on the life insurance subsidiaries and corporate debt was unaffected. .

Context: has decreased during the period from 2002 to 2004 , principally due to the increase in earned premium and due to cost containment measures undertaken by management . in business insurance and personal lines , the expense ratio is expected to decrease further in 2005 , largely as a result of expected increases in earned premium . in specialty commercial , the expense ratio is expected to increase slightly in 2005 due to changes in the business mix , most notably the company 2019s decision in the fourth quarter of 2004 to exit the multi-peril crop insurance program which will eliminate significant expense reimbursements from the specialty commercial segment . policyholder dividend ratio : the policyholder dividend ratio is the ratio of policyholder dividends to earned premium . combined ratio : the combined ratio is the sum of the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio , the expense ratio and the policyholder dividend ratio . this ratio is a relative measurement that describes the related cost of losses and expense for every $ 100 of earned premiums . a combined ratio below 100.0 demonstrates underwriting profit ; a combined ratio above 100.0 demonstrates underwriting losses . the combined ratio has decreased from 2003 to 2004 primarily because of improvement in the expense ratio . the combined ratio in 2005 could be significantly higher or lower than the 2004 combined ratio depending on the level of catastrophe losses , but will also be impacted by changes in pricing and an expected moderation in favorable loss cost trends . catastrophe ratio : the catastrophe ratio ( a component of the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio ) represents the ratio of catastrophe losses ( net of reinsurance ) to earned premiums . a catastrophe is an event that causes $ 25 or more in industry insured property losses and affects a significant number of property and casualty policyholders and insurers . by their nature , catastrophe losses vary dramatically from year to year . based on the mix and geographic dispersion of premium written and estimates derived from various catastrophe loss models , the company 2019s expected catastrophe ratio over the long-term is 3.0 points . before considering the reduction in ongoing operation 2019s catastrophe reserves related to september 11 of $ 298 in 2004 , the catastrophe ratio in 2004 was 5.3 points . see 201crisk management strategy 201d below for a discussion of the company 2019s property catastrophe risk management program that serves to mitigate the company 2019s net exposure to catastrophe losses . combined ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development : the combined ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development represents the combined ratio for the current accident year , excluding the impact of catastrophes . the company believes this ratio is an important measure of the trend in profitability since it removes the impact of volatile and unpredictable catastrophe losses and prior accident year reserve development . before considering catastrophes , the combined ratio related to current accident year business has improved from 2002 to 2004 principally due to earned pricing increases and favorable claim frequency . other operations underwriting results : the other operations segment is responsible for managing operations of the hartford that have discontinued writing new or renewal business as well as managing the claims related to asbestos and environmental exposures . as such , neither earned premiums nor underwriting ratios are meaningful financial measures . instead , management believes that underwriting result is a more meaningful measure . the net underwriting loss for 2002 through 2004 is primarily due to prior accident year loss development , including $ 2.6 billion of net asbestos reserve strengthening in 2003 . reserve estimates within other operations , including estimates for asbestos and environmental claims , are inherently uncertain . refer to the other operations segment md&a for further discussion of other operation's underwriting results . total property & casualty investment earnings .

the investment return , or yield , on property & casualty 2019s invested assets is an important element of the company 2019s earnings since insurance products are priced with the assumption that premiums received can be invested for a period of time before loss and loss adjustment expenses are paid . for longer tail lines , such as workers 2019 compensation and general liability , claims are paid over several years and , therefore , the premiums received for these lines of business can generate significant investment income . him determines the appropriate allocation of investments by asset class and measures the investment yield performance for each asset class against market indices or other benchmarks . due to the emphasis on preservation of capital and the need to maintain sufficient liquidity to satisfy claim obligations , the vast majority of property and casualty 2019s invested assets have been held in fixed maturities , including , among other asset classes , corporate bonds , municipal bonds , government debt , short-term debt , mortgage- .

Context: note 12 derivative instruments and fair value measurements the company is exposed to certain market risks such as changes in interest rates , foreign currency exchange rates , and commodity prices , which exist as a part of its ongoing business operations . management uses derivative financial and commodity instruments , including futures , options , and swaps , where appropriate , to manage these risks . instruments used as hedges must be effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and must be designated as a hedge at the inception of the contract . the company designates derivatives as cash flow hedges , fair value hedges , net investment hedges , and uses other contracts to reduce volatility in interest rates , foreign currency and commodities . as a matter of policy , the company does not engage in trading or speculative hedging transactions . total notional amounts of the company 2019s derivative instruments as of december 29 , 2012 and december 31 , 2011 were as follows: .

Context: the descriptions and fair value methodologies for the u.s . and international pension plan assets are as follows : cash and cash equivalents the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity . equity securities equity securities are valued at the closing market price reported on a u.s . or international exchange where the security is actively traded and are therefore classified as level 1 assets . equity mutual and pooled funds shares of mutual funds are valued at the net asset value ( nav ) of the fund and are classified as level 1 assets . units of pooled funds are valued at the per unit nav determined by the fund manager based on the value of the underlying traded holdings and are classified as level 2 assets . corporate and government bonds corporate and government bonds are classified as level 2 assets , as they are either valued at quoted market prices from observable pricing sources at the reporting date or valued based upon comparable securities with similar yields and credit ratings . other pooled funds other pooled funds classified as level 2 assets are valued at the nav of the shares held at year end , which is based on the fair value of the underlying investments . securities and interests classified as level 3 are carried at the estimated fair value . the estimated fair value is based on the fair value of the underlying investment values , which includes estimated bids from brokers or other third-party vendor sources that utilize expected cash flow streams and other uncorroborated data including counterparty credit quality , default risk , discount rates , and the overall capital market liquidity . insurance contracts insurance contracts are classified as level 3 assets , as they are carried at contract value , which approximates the estimated fair value . the estimated fair value is based on the fair value of the underlying investment of the insurance company and discount rates that require inputs with limited observability . contributions and projected benefit payments pension contributions to funded plans and benefit payments for unfunded plans for fiscal year 2018 were $ 68.3 . contributions for funded plans resulted primarily from contractual and regulatory requirements . benefit payments to unfunded plans were due primarily to the timing of retirements . we anticipate contributing $ 45 to $ 65 to the defined benefit pension plans in fiscal year 2019 . these contributions are anticipated to be driven primarily by contractual and regulatory requirements for funded plans and benefit payments for unfunded plans , which are dependent upon timing of retirements . projected benefit payments , which reflect expected future service , are as follows: .

approximately $ 4000 of our unconditional purchase obligations relate to helium purchases , which include crude feedstock supply to multiple helium refining plants in north america as well as refined helium purchases from sources around the world . as a rare byproduct of natural gas production in the energy sector , these helium sourcing agreements are medium- to long-term and contain take-or-pay provisions . the refined helium is distributed globally and sold as a merchant gas , primarily under medium-term requirements contracts . while contract terms in the energy sector are longer than those in merchant , helium is a rare gas used in applications with few or no substitutions because of its unique physical and chemical properties . approximately $ 330 of our long-term unconditional purchase obligations relate to feedstock supply for numerous hyco ( hydrogen , carbon monoxide , and syngas ) facilities . the price of feedstock supply is principally related to the price of natural gas . however , long-term take-or-pay sales contracts to hyco customers are generally matched to the term of the feedstock supply obligations and provide recovery of price increases in the feedstock supply . due to the matching of most long-term feedstock supply obligations to customer sales contracts , we do not believe these purchase obligations would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations . the unconditional purchase obligations also include other product supply and purchase commitments and electric power and natural gas supply purchase obligations , which are primarily pass-through contracts with our customers . purchase commitments to spend approximately $ 350 for additional plant and equipment are included in the unconditional purchase obligations in 2017 . in addition , we have purchase commitments totaling approximately $ 500 in 2017 and 2018 relating to our long-term sale of equipment project for saudi aramco 2019s jazan oil refinery . 18 . capital stock common stock authorized common stock consists of 300 million shares with a par value of $ 1 per share . as of 30 september 2016 , 249 million shares were issued , with 217 million outstanding . on 15 september 2011 , the board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $ 1000 of our outstanding common stock . we repurchase shares pursuant to rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the securities exchange act of 1934 , as amended , through repurchase agreements established with several brokers . we did not purchase any of our outstanding shares during fiscal year 2016 . at 30 september 2016 , $ 485.3 in share repurchase authorization remains. .

Context: 2022 international . in general , our international markets are less advanced with respect to the current technologies deployed for wireless services . as a result , demand for our communications sites is driven by continued voice network investments , new market entrants and initial 3g data network deployments . for example , in india , nationwide voice networks continue to be deployed as wireless service providers are beginning their initial investments in 3g data networks , as a result of recent spectrum auctions . in mexico and brazil , where nationwide voice networks have been deployed , some incumbent wireless service providers continue to invest in their 3g data networks , and recent spectrum auctions have enabled other incumbent wireless service providers and new market entrants to begin their initial investments in 3g data networks . in markets such as chile and peru , recent spectrum auctions have attracted new market entrants , who are expected to begin their investment in deploying nationwide voice and 3g data networks . we believe demand for our tower sites will continue in our international markets as wireless service providers seek to remain competitive by increasing the coverage of their networks while also investing in next generation data networks . rental and management operations new site revenue growth . during the year ended december 31 , 2010 , we grew our portfolio of communications sites through acquisitions and construction activities , including the acquisition and construction of approximately 7800 sites . we continue to evaluate opportunities to acquire larger communications site portfolios , both domestically and internationally , that we believe we can effectively integrate into our existing portfolio. .
|new sites ( acquired or constructed )|2010|2009|2008|
|domestic|947|528|160|
|international ( 1 )|6865|3022|801|
( 1 ) the majority of sites acquired or constructed internationally during 2010 and 2009 were in india and our newly launched operations in chile , colombia and peru . network development services segment revenue growth . as we continue to focus on growing our rental and management operations , we anticipate that our network development services revenue will continue to represent a small percentage of our total revenues . through our network development services segment , we offer tower-related services , including site acquisition , zoning and permitting services and structural analysis services , which primarily support our site leasing business and the addition of new tenants and equipment on our sites . rental and management operations expenses . our rental and management operations expenses include our direct site level expenses and consist primarily of ground rent , property taxes , repairs and maintenance and utilities . these segment level expenses exclude all segment and corporate level selling , general , administrative and development expenses , which are aggregated into one line item entitled selling , general , administrative and development expense . in general , our rental and management segment level selling , general and administrative expenses do not significantly increase as a result of adding incremental tenants to our legacy sites and typically increase only modestly year-over-year . as a result , leasing additional space to new tenants on our legacy sites provides significant incremental cash flow . in geographic areas where we have recently launched operations or are focused on materially expanding our site footprint , we may incur additional segment level selling , general and administrative expenses as we increase our presence in these areas . our profit margin growth is therefore positively impacted by the addition of new tenants to our legacy sites and can be temporarily diluted by our development activities . reit election . as we review our tax strategy and assess the utilization of our federal and state nols , we are actively considering an election to a reit for u.s . federal and , where applicable , state income tax purposes . we may make the determination to elect reit status for the taxable year beginning january 1 , 2012 , as early as the second half of 2011 , subject to the approval of our board of directors , although there is no certainty as to the timing of a reit election or whether we will make a reit election at all. .

Context: administrative fees , which increased $ 5.8 million to $ 353.9 million , are generally offset by related operating expenses that are incurred to provide services to the funds and their investors . our largest expense , compensation and related costs , increased $ 18.4 million or 2.3% ( 2.3 % ) from 2007 . this increase includes $ 37.2 million in salaries resulting from an 8.4% ( 8.4 % ) increase in our average staff count and an increase of our associates 2019 base salaries at the beginning of the year . at december 31 , 2008 , we employed 5385 associates , up 6.0% ( 6.0 % ) from the end of 2007 , primarily to add capabilities and support increased volume-related activities and other growth over the past few years . over the course of 2008 , we slowed the growth of our associate base from earlier plans and the prior year . we also reduced our annual bonuses $ 27.6 million versus the 2007 year in response to unfavorable financial market conditions that negatively impacted our operating results . the balance of the increase is attributable to higher employee benefits and employment-related expenses , including an increase of $ 5.7 million in stock-based compensation . after higher spending during the first quarter of 2008 versus 2007 , investor sentiment in the uncertain and volatile market environment caused us to reduce advertising and promotion spending , which for the year was down $ 3.8 million from 2007 . occupancy and facility costs together with depreciation expense increased $ 18 million , or 12% ( 12 % ) compared to 2007 . we expanded and renovated our facilities in 2008 to accommodate the growth in our associates to meet business demands . other operating expenses were up $ 3.3 million from 2007 . we increased our spending $ 9.8 million , primarily for professional fees and information and other third-party services . reductions in travel and charitable contributions partially offset these increases . our non-operating investment activity resulted in a net loss of $ 52.3 million in 2008 as compared to a net gain of $ 80.4 million in 2007 . this change of $ 132.7 million is primarily attributable to losses recognized in 2008 on our investments in sponsored mutual funds , which resulted from declines in financial market values during the year. .

we recognized other than temporary impairments of our investments in sponsored mutual funds because of declines in fair value below cost for an extended period . the significant declines in fair value below cost that occurred in 2008 were generally attributable to adverse market conditions . in addition , income from money market and bond fund holdings was $ 19.3 million lower than in 2007 due to the significantly lower interest rate environment of 2008 . lower interest rates also led to substantial capital appreciation on our $ 40 million holding of u.s . treasury notes that we sold in december 2008 at a $ 2.6 million gain . the 2008 provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax income is 38.4% ( 38.4 % ) , up from 37.7% ( 37.7 % ) in 2007 , primarily to reflect changes in state income tax rates and regulations and certain adjustments made prospectively based on our annual income tax return filings for 2007 . c a p i t a l r e s o u r c e s a n d l i q u i d i t y . during 2009 , stockholders 2019 equity increased from $ 2.5 billion to $ 2.9 billion . we repurchased nearly 2.3 million common shares for $ 67 million in 2009 . tangible book value is $ 2.2 billion at december 31 , 2009 , and our cash and cash equivalents and our mutual fund investment holdings total $ 1.4 billion . given the availability of these financial resources , we do not maintain an available external source of liquidity . on january 20 , 2010 , we purchased a 26% ( 26 % ) equity interest in uti asset management company and an affiliate for $ 142.4 million . we funded the acquisition from our cash holdings . in addition to the pending uti acquisition , we had outstanding commitments to fund other investments totaling $ 35.4 million at december 31 , 2009 . we presently anticipate funding 2010 property and equipment expenditures of about $ 150 million from our cash balances and operating cash inflows . 22 t . rowe price group annual report 2009 .

Context: entergy corporation and subsidiaries management's financial discussion and analysis annually , beginning in 2006 , if power market prices drop below the ppa prices . accordingly , because the price is not fixed , the table above does not report power from that plant as sold forward after 2005 . under the ppas with nypa for the output of power from indian point 3 and fitzpatrick , the non-utility nuclear business is obligated to produce at an average capacity factor of 85% ( 85 % ) with a financial true-up payment to nypa should nypa's cost to purchase power due to an output shortfall be higher than the ppas' price . the calculation of any true-up payments is based on two two-year periods . for the first period , which ran through november 20 , 2002 , indian point 3 and fitzpatrick operated at 95% ( 95 % ) and 97% ( 97 % ) , respectively , under the true-up formula . credits of up to 5% ( 5 % ) reflecting period one generation above 85% ( 85 % ) can be used to offset any output shortfalls in the second period , which runs through the end of the ppas on december 31 , 2004 . entergy continually monitors industry trends in order to determine whether asset impairments or other losses could result from a decline in value , or cancellation , of merchant power projects , and records provisions for impairments and losses accordingly . marketing and trading the earnings of entergy's energy commodity services segment are exposed to commodity price market risks primarily through entergy's 50%-owned , unconsolidated investment in entergy-koch . entergy-koch trading ( ekt ) uses value-at-risk models as one measure of the market risk of a loss in fair value for ekt's natural gas and power trading portfolio . actual future gains and losses in portfolios will differ from those estimated based upon actual fluctuations in market rates , operating exposures , and the timing thereof , and changes in the portfolio of derivative financial instruments during the year . to manage its portfolio , ekt enters into various derivative and contractual transactions in accordance with the policy approved by the trading committee of the governing board of entergy-koch . the trading portfolio consists of physical and financial natural gas and power as well as other energy and weather-related contracts . these contracts take many forms , including futures , forwards , swaps , and options . characteristics of ekt's value-at-risk method and the use of that method are as follows : fffd value-at-risk is used in conjunction with stress testing , position reporting , and profit and loss reporting in order to measure and control the risk inherent in the trading and mark-to-market portfolios . fffd ekt estimates its value-at-risk using a model based on j.p . morgan's risk metrics methodology combined with a monte carlo simulation approach . fffd ekt estimates its daily value-at-risk for natural gas and power using a 97.5% ( 97.5 % ) confidence level . ekt's daily value-at-risk is a measure that indicates that , if prices moved against the positions , the loss in neutralizing the portfolio would not be expected to exceed the calculated value-at-risk . fffd ekt seeks to limit the daily value-at-risk on any given day to a certain dollar amount approved by the trading committee . ekt's value-at-risk measures , which it calls daily earnings at risk ( de@r ) , for its trading portfolio were as follows: .
||2002|2001|
|de@r at end of period|$ 15.2 million|$ 5.5 million|
|average de@r for the period|$ 10.8 million|$ 6.4 million|
ekt's de@r increased in 2002 compared to 2001 as a result of an increase in the size of the position held and an increase in the volatility of natural gas prices in the latter part of the year . for all derivative and contractual transactions , ekt is exposed to losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to these transactions . relevant considerations when assessing ekt's credit risk exposure include: .

Context: 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: .
|( in days )|december 31 , 2015|december 31 , 2014|december 31 , 2013|
|days of sales outstanding ( dso ) ( 1 )|48|42|44|
|days of supply in inventory ( dio ) ( 2 )|13|13|14|
|days of purchases outstanding ( dpo ) ( 3 )|-40 ( 40 )|-34 ( 34 )|-35 ( 35 )|

( 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 .

( a ) we utilize a non-gaap measure in the computation of capital expenditures and include spending associated with facilities accounted for as capital leases and purchases of noncontrolling interests . certain contracts associated with facilities that are built to provide product to a specific customer are required to be accounted for as leases , and such spending is reflected as a use of cash within cash provided by operating activities , if the arrangement qualifies as a capital lease . additionally , the purchase of subsidiary shares from noncontrolling interests is accounted for as a financing activity in the statement of cash flows . the presentation of this non-gaap measure is intended to enhance the usefulness of information by providing a measure that our management uses internally to evaluate and manage our expenditures . capital expenditures on a gaap basis in 2016 totaled $ 1055.8 , compared to $ 1265.6 in 2015 . the decrease of $ 209.8 was primarily due to the completion of major projects in 2016 and 2015 . additions to plant and equipment also included support capital of a routine , ongoing nature , including expenditures for distribution equipment and facility improvements . spending in 2016 and 2015 included plant and equipment constructed to provide oxygen for coal gasification in china , hydrogen to the global market , oxygen to the steel industry , nitrogen to the electronic semiconductor industry , and capacity expansion for the materials technologies segment . capital expenditures on a non-gaap basis in 2016 totaled $ 1083.0 compared to $ 1678.4 in 2015 . the decrease of $ 595.4 was primarily due to the prior year purchase of the 30.5% ( 30.5 % ) equity interest in our indura s.a . subsidiary from the largest minority shareholder for $ 277.9 . refer to note 21 , noncontrolling interests , to the consolidated financial statements for additional details . additionally , capital lease expenditures of $ 27.2 , decreased by $ 68.4 , reflecting lower project spending . on 19 april 2015 , a joint venture between air products and acwa holding entered into a 20-year oxygen and nitrogen supply agreement to supply saudi aramco 2019s oil refinery and power plant being built in jazan , saudi arabia . air products owns 25% ( 25 % ) of the joint venture . during 2016 and 2015 , we recorded noncash transactions which resulted in an increase of $ 26.9 and $ 67.5 , respectively , to our investment in net assets of and advances to equity affiliates for our obligation to invest in the joint venture . these noncash transactions have been excluded from the consolidated statements of cash flows . in total , we expect to invest approximately $ 100 in this joint venture . air products has also entered into a sale of equipment contract with the joint venture to engineer , procure , and construct the industrial gas facilities that will supply the gases to saudi aramco. .

in fiscal 2018 , we continued to pursue our strategy of offering differentiated paper and packaging solutions that help our customers win . we successfully executed this strategy in fiscal 2018 in a rapidly changing cost and price environment . net sales of $ 16285.1 million for fiscal 2018 increased $ 1425.4 million , or 9.6% ( 9.6 % ) , compared to fiscal 2017 . the increase was primarily a result of an increase in corrugated packaging segment sales , driven by higher selling price/mix and the contributions from acquisitions , and increased consumer packaging segment sales , primarily due to the contribution from acquisitions ( primarily the mps acquisition ) . these increases were partially offset by the absence of net sales from hh&b in fiscal 2018 due to the sale of hh&b in april 2017 and lower land and development segment sales compared to the prior year period due to the timing of real estate sales as we monetize the portfolio and lower merchandising display sales in the consumer packaging segment . segment income increased $ 491.5 million in fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2017 , primarily due to increased corrugated packaging segment income . with respect to segment income , we experienced higher levels of cost inflation during fiscal 2018 as compared to fiscal 2017 , which was partially offset by recycled fiber deflation . the primary inflationary items were freight costs , chemical costs , virgin fiber costs and wage and other costs . productivity improvements in fiscal 2018 more than offset the net impact of cost inflation . while it is difficult to predict specific inflationary items , we expect higher cost inflation to continue through fiscal 2019 . our corrugated packaging segment increased its net sales by $ 695.1 million in fiscal 2018 to $ 9103.4 million from $ 8408.3 million in fiscal 2017 . the increase in net sales was primarily due to higher corrugated selling price/mix and higher corrugated volumes ( including acquisitions ) , which were partially offset by lower net sales from recycling operations due to lower recycled fiber costs , lower sales related to the deconsolidation of a foreign joint venture in fiscal 2017 and the impact of foreign currency . north american box shipments increased 4.1% ( 4.1 % ) on a per day basis in fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2017 . segment income attributable to the corrugated packaging segment in fiscal 2018 increased $ 454.0 million to $ 1207.9 million compared to $ 753.9 million in fiscal 2017 . the increase was primarily due to higher selling price/mix , lower recycled fiber costs and productivity improvements which were partially offset by higher levels of cost inflation and other items , including increased depreciation and amortization . our consumer packaging segment increased its net sales by $ 838.9 million in fiscal 2018 to $ 7291.4 million from $ 6452.5 million in fiscal 2017 . the increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase in net sales from acquisitions ( primarily the mps acquisition ) and higher selling price/mix partially offset by the absence of net sales from hh&b in fiscal 2018 due to the hh&b sale in april 2017 and lower volumes . segment income attributable to .

the risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a zero coupon united states treasury security with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option from the date of the grant . our assumption on expected volatility is based on our historical volatility . the dividend yield assumption is calculated using our average stock price over the preceding year and the annualized amount of our current quarterly dividend . since the purchase price for shares under the plan is based on the market value on the first day or last day of the quarterly purchase period , we use an expected life of three months to determine the fair value of each designated share. .

Context: provision for income taxes increased $ 1791 million in 2012 from 2011 primarily due to the increase in pretax income from continuing operations , including the impact of the resumption of sales in libya in the first quarter of 2012 . the following is an analysis of the effective income tax rates for 2012 and 2011: .
||2012|2011|
|statutory rate applied to income from continuing operations before income taxes|35% ( 35 % )|35% ( 35 % )|
|effects of foreign operations including foreign tax credits|18|6|
|change in permanent reinvestment assertion|2014|5|
|adjustments to valuation allowances|21|14|
|tax law changes|2014|1|
|effective income tax rate on continuing operations|74% ( 74 % )|61% ( 61 % )|
the effective income tax rate is influenced by a variety of factors including the geographic sources of income and the relative magnitude of these sources of income . the provision for income taxes is allocated on a discrete , stand-alone basis to pretax segment income and to individual items not allocated to segments . the difference between the total provision and the sum of the amounts allocated to segments appears in the "corporate and other unallocated items" shown in the reconciliation of segment income to net income below . effects of foreign operations 2013 the effects of foreign operations on our effective tax rate increased in 2012 as compared to 2011 , primarily due to the resumption of sales in libya in the first quarter of 2012 , where the statutory rate is in excess of 90 percent . change in permanent reinvestment assertion 2013 in the second quarter of 2011 , we recorded $ 716 million of deferred u.s . tax on undistributed earnings of $ 2046 million that we previously intended to permanently reinvest in foreign operations . offsetting this tax expense were associated foreign tax credits of $ 488 million . in addition , we reduced our valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits by $ 228 million due to recognizing deferred u.s . tax on previously undistributed earnings . adjustments to valuation allowances 2013 in 2012 and 2011 , we increased the valuation allowance against foreign tax credits because it is more likely than not that we will be unable to realize all u.s . benefits on foreign taxes accrued in those years . see item 8 . financial statements and supplementary data - note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for further information about income taxes . discontinued operations is presented net of tax , and reflects our downstream business that was spun off june 30 , 2011 and our angola business which we agreed to sell in 2013 . see item 8 . financial statements and supplementary data 2013 notes 3 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. .

( a ) we utilize a non-gaap measure in the computation of capital expenditures and include spending associated with facilities accounted for as capital leases and purchases of noncontrolling interests . certain contracts associated with facilities that are built to provide product to a specific customer are required to be accounted for as leases , and such spending is reflected as a use of cash within cash provided by operating activities , if the arrangement qualifies as a capital lease . additionally , the purchase of subsidiary shares from noncontrolling interests is accounted for as a financing activity in the statement of cash flows . the presentation of this non-gaap measure is intended to enhance the usefulness of information by providing a measure that our management uses internally to evaluate and manage our expenditures . capital expenditures on a gaap basis in 2016 totaled $ 1055.8 , compared to $ 1265.6 in 2015 . the decrease of $ 209.8 was primarily due to the completion of major projects in 2016 and 2015 . additions to plant and equipment also included support capital of a routine , ongoing nature , including expenditures for distribution equipment and facility improvements . spending in 2016 and 2015 included plant and equipment constructed to provide oxygen for coal gasification in china , hydrogen to the global market , oxygen to the steel industry , nitrogen to the electronic semiconductor industry , and capacity expansion for the materials technologies segment . capital expenditures on a non-gaap basis in 2016 totaled $ 1083.0 compared to $ 1678.4 in 2015 . the decrease of $ 595.4 was primarily due to the prior year purchase of the 30.5% ( 30.5 % ) equity interest in our indura s.a . subsidiary from the largest minority shareholder for $ 277.9 . refer to note 21 , noncontrolling interests , to the consolidated financial statements for additional details . additionally , capital lease expenditures of $ 27.2 , decreased by $ 68.4 , reflecting lower project spending . on 19 april 2015 , a joint venture between air products and acwa holding entered into a 20-year oxygen and nitrogen supply agreement to supply saudi aramco 2019s oil refinery and power plant being built in jazan , saudi arabia . air products owns 25% ( 25 % ) of the joint venture . during 2016 and 2015 , we recorded noncash transactions which resulted in an increase of $ 26.9 and $ 67.5 , respectively , to our investment in net assets of and advances to equity affiliates for our obligation to invest in the joint venture . these noncash transactions have been excluded from the consolidated statements of cash flows . in total , we expect to invest approximately $ 100 in this joint venture . air products has also entered into a sale of equipment contract with the joint venture to engineer , procure , and construct the industrial gas facilities that will supply the gases to saudi aramco. .

|ratio of debt plus trust preferred securities to total capitalization|17.8% ( 17.8 % )|15.6% ( 15.6 % )|
our ratios of debt to total capitalization and debt plus trust preferred securities to total capitalization have increased temporarily due to the increase in short-term debt , as discussed below . we expect that these ratios will decline over the next six to nine months as we repay the short-term debt . we believe our financial strength provides us with the flexibility and capacity to obtain available funds externally through debt or equity financing on both a short-term and long-term basis . our ability to access the capital markets is dependent on , among other things , market conditions and our perceived financial strength . we have accessed both the debt and equity markets from time to time. .

Context: costs . our 2012 results were lower than 2011 when we realized $ 53.1 million in premium-services margins and our storage and marketing margins consisted of $ 96.0 million from realized seasonal price differentials and marketing optimization activities , and $ 87.7 million of storage demand costs . in addition , we recognized a loss on the change in fair value of our nonqualifiying economic storage hedges of $ 1.0 million in 2012 compared with a gain of $ 8.5 million in 2011 . our premium services were impacted negatively by lower natural gas prices and decreased natural gas price volatility . the impact of our hedge strategies and the inability to hedge seasonal price differentials at levels that were available to us in the prior year significantly reduced our storage margins . we also experienced reduced opportunities to optimize our storage assets , which negatively impacted our marketing margins . we realized a loss in our transportation margins of $ 42.4 million in 2012 compared with a loss of $ 18.8 million in 2011 , due primarily to a $ 29.5 million decrease in transportation hedges . our transportation business continues to be impacted by narrow price location differentials and the inability to hedge at levels that were available to us in prior years . as a result of significant increases in the supply of natural gas , primarily from shale gas production across north america and new pipeline infrastructure projects , location and seasonal price differentials narrowed significantly beginning in 2010 and continuing through 2012 . this market change resulted in our transportation contracts being unprofitable impacting our ability to recover our fixed costs . operating costs decreased due primarily to lower employee-related expenses , which includes the impact of fewer employees . we also recognized an expense of $ 10.3 million related to the impairment of our goodwill in the first quarter 2012 . given the significant decline in natural gas prices and its effect on location and seasonal price differentials , we performed an interim impairment assessment in the first quarter 2012 that reduced our goodwill balance to zero . 2011 vs . 2010 - the factors discussed in energy services 2019 201cnarrative description of the business 201d included in item i , business , of this annual report have led to a significant decrease in net margin , including : 2022 a decrease of $ 65.3 million in transportation margins , net of hedging , due primarily to narrower location price differentials and lower hedge settlements in 2011 ; 2022 a decrease of $ 34.3 million in storage and marketing margins , net of hedging activities , due primarily to the following : 2013 lower realized seasonal storage price differentials ; offset partially by 2013 favorable marketing activity and unrealized fair value changes on nonqualifying economic storage hedges ; 2022 a decrease of $ 7.3 million in premium-services margins , associated primarily with the reduction in the value of the fees collected for these services as a result of low commodity prices and reduced natural gas price volatility in the first quarter 2011 compared with the first quarter 2010 ; and 2022 a decrease of $ 4.3 million in financial trading margins , as low natural gas prices and reduced natural gas price volatility limited our financial trading opportunities . additionally , our 2011 net margin includes $ 91.1 million in adjustments to natural gas inventory reflecting the lower of cost or market value . because of the adjustments to our inventory value , we reclassified $ 91.1 million of deferred gains on associated cash flow hedges into earnings . operating costs decreased due primarily to a decrease in ad valorem taxes . selected operating information - the following table sets forth certain selected operating information for our energy services segment for the periods indicated: .
|operating information|years ended december 31 , 2012|years ended december 31 , 2011|years ended december 31 , 2010|
|natural gas marketed ( bcf )|709|845|919|
|natural gas gross margin ( $ /mcf )|$ -0.07 ( 0.07 )|$ 0.06|$ 0.18|
|physically settled volumes ( bcf )|1433|1724|1874|
natural gas volumes marketed and physically settled volumes decreased in 2012 compared with 2011 due primarily to decreased marketing activities , lower transported volumes and reduced transportation capacity . the decrease in 2011 compared with 2010 was due primarily to lower volumes transported and reduced transportation capacity . transportation capacity in certain markets was not utilized due to the economics of the location price differentials as a result of increased supply of natural gas , primarily from shale production , and increased pipeline capacity as a result of new pipeline construction. .

Context: entergy new orleans , inc . and subsidiaries management 2019s financial discussion and analysis results of operations net income 2016 compared to 2015 net income increased $ 3.9 million primarily due to higher net revenue , partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expenses , higher interest expense , and lower other income . 2015 compared to 2014 net income increased $ 13.9 million primarily due to lower other operation and maintenance expenses and higher net revenue , partially offset by a higher effective income tax rate . net revenue 2016 compared to 2015 net revenue consists of operating revenues net of : 1 ) fuel , fuel-related expenses , and gas purchased for resale , 2 ) purchased power expenses , and 3 ) other regulatory charges . following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing 2016 to 2015 . amount ( in millions ) .

Context: 31 , 2015 , the price was r$ 218/mwh . after the expiration of contract with eletropaulo , tiet ea's strategy is to contract most of its physical guarantee , as described in regulatory framework section below , and sell the remaining portion in the spot market . tiet ea's strategy is reassessed from time to time according to changes in market conditions , hydrology and other factors . tiet ea has been continuously selling its available energy from 2016 forward through medium-term bilateral contracts of three to five years . as of december 31 , 2016 , tiet ea's contracted portfolio position is 95% ( 95 % ) and 88% ( 88 % ) with average prices of r$ 157/ mwh and r$ 159/mwh ( inflation adjusted until december 2016 ) for 2016 and 2017 , respectively . as brazil is mostly a hydro-based country with energy prices highly tied to the hydrological situation , the deterioration of the hydrology since the beginning of 2014 caused an increase in energy prices going forward . tiet ea is closely monitoring and analyzing system supply conditions to support energy commercialization decisions . under the concession agreement , tiet ea has an obligation to increase its capacity by 15% ( 15 % ) . tiet ea , as well as other concession generators , have not yet met this requirement due to regulatory , environmental , hydrological and fuel constraints . the state of s e3o paulo does not have a sufficient potential for wind power and only has a small remaining potential for hydro projects . as such , the capacity increases in the state will mostly be derived from thermal gas capacity projects . due to the highly complex process to obtain an environmental license for coal projects , tiet ea decided to fulfill its obligation with gas-fired projects in line with the federal government plans . petrobras refuses to supply natural gas and to offer capacity in its pipelines and regasification terminals . therefore , there are no regulations for natural gas swaps in place , and it is unfeasible to bring natural gas to aes tiet ea . a legal case has been initiated by the state of s e3o paulo requiring the investment to be performed . tiet ea is in the process of analyzing options to meet the obligation . uruguaiana is a 640 mw gas-fired combined cycle power plant located in the town of uruguaiana in the state of rio grande do sul , commissioned in december 2000 . aes manages and has a 46% ( 46 % ) economic interest in the plant with the remaining interest held by bndes . the plant's operations were suspended in april 2009 due to the unavailability of gas . aes has evaluated several alternatives to bring gas supply on a competitive basis to uruguaiana . one of the challenges is the capacity restrictions on the argentinean pipeline , especially during the winter season when gas demand in argentina is very high . the plant operated on a short-term basis during february and march 2013 , march through may 2014 , and february through may 2015 due to the short-term supply of lng for the facility . the plant did not operate in 2016 . uruguaiana continues to work toward securing gas on a long-term basis . market structure 2014 brazil has installed capacity of 150136 mw , which is 65% ( 65 % ) hydroelectric , 19% ( 19 % ) thermal and 16% ( 16 % ) renewable ( biomass and wind ) . brazil's national grid is divided into four subsystems . tiet ea is in the southeast and uruguaiana is in the south subsystems of the national grid . regulatory framework 2014 in brazil , the ministry of mines and energy determines the maximum amount of energy that a plant can sell , called physical guarantee , which represents the long-term average expected energy production of the plant . under current rules , physical guarantee can be sold to distribution companies through long- term regulated auctions or under unregulated bilateral contracts with large consumers or energy trading companies . the national system operator ( "ons" ) is responsible for coordinating and controlling the operation of the national grid . the ons dispatches generators based on hydrological conditions , reservoir levels , electricity demand and the prices of fuel and thermal generation . given the importance of hydro generation in the country , the ons sometimes reduces dispatch of hydro facilities and increases dispatch of thermal facilities to protect reservoir levels in the system . in brazil , the system operator controls all hydroelectric generation dispatch and reservoir levels . a mechanism known as the energy reallocation mechanism ( "mre" ) was created to share hydrological risk across mre hydro generators . if the hydro plants generate less than the total mre physical guarantee , the hydro generators may need to purchase energy in the short-term market to fulfill their contract obligations . when total hydro generation is higher than the total mre physical guarantee , the surplus is proportionally shared among its participants and they are able to make extra revenue selling the excess energy on the spot market . the consequences of unfavorable hydrology are ( i ) thermal plants more expensive to the system being dispatched , ( ii ) lower hydropower generation with deficits in the mre and ( iii ) high spot prices . aneel defines the spot price cap for electricity in the brazilian market . the spot price caps as defined by aneel and average spot prices by calendar year are as follows ( r$ / .
|year|2017|2016|2015|2014|
|spot price cap as defined by aneel|534|423|388|822|

Context: note 12 2013 stock-based compensation during 2013 , 2012 , and 2011 , we recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense totaling $ 189 million , $ 167 million , and $ 157 million , which is included as a component of other unallocated costs on our statements of earnings . the net impact to earnings for the respective years was $ 122 million , $ 108 million , and $ 101 million . as of december 31 , 2013 , we had $ 132 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested awards , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years . we received cash from the exercise of stock options totaling $ 827 million , $ 440 million , and $ 116 million during 2013 , 2012 , and 2011 . in addition , our income tax liabilities for 2013 , 2012 , and 2011 were reduced by $ 158 million , $ 96 million , and $ 56 million due to recognized tax benefits on stock-based compensation arrangements . stock-based compensation plans under plans approved by our stockholders , we are authorized to grant key employees stock-based incentive awards , including options to purchase common stock , stock appreciation rights , restricted stock units ( rsus ) , performance stock units ( psus ) , or other stock units . the exercise price of options to purchase common stock may not be less than the fair market value of our stock on the date of grant . no award of stock options may become fully vested prior to the third anniversary of the grant , and no portion of a stock option grant may become vested in less than one year . the minimum vesting period for restricted stock or stock units payable in stock is three years . award agreements may provide for shorter or pro-rated vesting periods or vesting following termination of employment in the case of death , disability , divestiture , retirement , change of control , or layoff . the maximum term of a stock option or any other award is 10 years . at december 31 , 2013 , inclusive of the shares reserved for outstanding stock options , rsus and psus , we had 20.4 million shares reserved for issuance under the plans . at december 31 , 2013 , 4.7 million of the shares reserved for issuance remained available for grant under our stock-based compensation plans . we issue new shares upon the exercise of stock options or when restrictions on rsus and psus have been satisfied . the following table summarizes activity related to nonvested rsus during 2013 : number of rsus ( in thousands ) weighted average grant-date fair value per share .
||number of rsus ( in thousands )|weighted average grant-date fair value pershare|
|nonvested at december 31 2012|4822|$ 79.10|
|granted|1356|89.24|
|vested|-2093 ( 2093 )|79.26|
|forfeited|-226 ( 226 )|81.74|
|nonvested at december 31 2013|3859|$ 82.42|
rsus are valued based on the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant . employees who are granted rsus receive the right to receive shares of stock after completion of the vesting period , however , the shares are not issued , and the employees cannot sell or transfer shares prior to vesting and have no voting rights until the rsus vest , generally three years from the date of the award . employees who are granted rsus receive dividend-equivalent cash payments only upon vesting . for these rsu awards , the grant-date fair value is equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant less a discount to reflect the delay in payment of dividend-equivalent cash payments . we recognize the grant-date fair value of rsus , less estimated forfeitures , as compensation expense ratably over the requisite service period , which beginning with the rsus granted in 2013 is shorter than the vesting period if the employee is retirement eligible on the date of grant or will become retirement eligible before the end of the vesting period . stock options we generally recognize compensation cost for stock options ratably over the three-year vesting period . at december 31 , 2013 and 2012 , there were 10.2 million ( weighted average exercise price of $ 83.65 ) and 20.6 million ( weighted average exercise price of $ 83.15 ) stock options outstanding . stock options outstanding at december 31 , 2013 have a weighted average remaining contractual life of approximately five years and an aggregate intrinsic value of $ 663 million , and we expect nearly all of these stock options to vest . of the stock options outstanding , 7.7 million ( weighted average exercise price of $ 84.37 ) have vested as of december 31 , 2013 and those stock options have a weighted average remaining contractual life of approximately four years and an aggregate intrinsic value of $ 497 million . there were 10.1 million ( weighted average exercise price of $ 82.72 ) stock options exercised during 2013 . we did not grant stock options to employees during 2013. .

north american industr ia l packaging net sales were $ 11.6 billion in 2012 compared with $ 8.6 billion in 2011 and $ 8.4 billion in 2010 . operating profits in 2012 were $ 1.0 billion ( $ 1.3 billion exclud- ing costs associated with the acquisition and integration of temple-inland and mill divestiture costs ) compared with $ 1.1 billion ( both including and excluding costs associated with signing an agree- ment to acquire temple-inland ) in 2011 and $ 763 million ( $ 776 million excluding facility closure costs ) in 2010 . sales volumes for the legacy business were about flat in 2012 compared with 2011 . average sales price was lower mainly due to export containerboard sales prices which bottomed out in the first quarter but climbed steadily the rest of the year . input costs were lower for recycled fiber , wood and natural gas , but higher for starch . freight costs also increased . plan- ned maintenance downtime costs were higher than in 2011 . operating costs were higher largely due to routine inventory valuation adjustments operating profits in 2012 benefited from $ 235 million of temple-inland synergies . market-related downtime in 2012 was about 570000 tons compared with about 380000 tons in 2011 . operating profits in 2012 included $ 184 million of costs associated with the acquisition and integration of temple-inland and $ 91 million of costs associated with the divestiture of three containerboard mills . operating profits in 2011 included charges of $ 20 million for costs associated with the signing of the agreement to acquire temple- inland . looking ahead to 2013 , sales volumes in the first quarter compared with the fourth quarter of 2012 are expected to increase slightly for boxes due to a higher number of shipping days . average sales price realizations are expected to reflect the pass-through to box customers of a containerboard price increase implemented in 2012 . input costs are expected to be higher for recycled fiber , wood and starch . planned maintenance downtime costs are expected to be about $ 26 million higher with outages scheduled at eight mills compared with six mills in the 2012 fourth quarter . manufacturing operating costs are expected to be lower . european industr ia l packaging net sales were $ 1.0 billion in 2012 compared with $ 1.1 billion in 2011 and $ 990 million in 2010 . operating profits in 2012 were $ 53 million ( $ 72 million excluding restructuring costs ) compared with $ 66 million ( $ 61 million excluding a gain for a bargain purchase price adjustment on an acquisition by our joint venture in turkey and costs associated with the closure of our etienne mill in france in 2009 ) in 2011 and $ 70 mil- lion ( $ 73 million before closure costs for our etienne mill ) in 2010 . sales volumes in 2012 were lower than in 2011 reflecting decreased demand for packaging in the industrial market due to a weaker overall economic environment in southern europe . demand for pack- aging in the agricultural markets was about flat year- over-year . average sales margins increased due to sales price increases implemented during 2011 and 2012 and lower board costs . other input costs were higher , primarily for energy and distribution . operat- ing profits in 2012 included a net gain of $ 10 million for an insurance settlement , partially offset by addi- tional operating costs , related to the earthquakes in northern italy in may which affected our san felice box plant . entering the first quarter of 2013 , sales volumes are expected to be stable reflecting a seasonal decrease in market demand in agricultural markets offset by an increase in industrial markets . average sales margins are expected to improve due to lower input costs for containerboard . other input costs should be about flat . operating costs are expected to be higher reflecting the absence of the earthquake insurance settlement that was received in the 2012 fourth quar- asian industr ia l packaging net sales and operating profits include the results of sca pack- aging since the acquisition on june 30 , 2010 , includ- ing the impact of incremental integration costs . net sales for the packaging operations were $ 400 million in 2012 compared with $ 410 million in 2011 and $ 255 million in 2010 . operating profits for the packaging operations were $ 2 million in 2012 compared with $ 2 million in 2011 and a loss of $ 7 million ( a loss of $ 4 million excluding facility closure costs ) in 2010 . operating profits were favorably impacted by higher average sales margins in 2012 compared with 2011 , but this benefit was offset by lower sales volumes and higher raw material costs and operating costs . looking ahead to the first quarter of 2013 , sales volumes and average sales margins are expected to decrease due to seasonality . net sales for the distribution operations were $ 260 million in 2012 compared with $ 285 million in 2011 and $ 240 million in 2010 . operating profits were $ 3 million in 2012 compared with $ 3 million in 2011 and about breakeven in 2010. .

Context: 2009 levels , we returned a portion of these assets to active service . at the end of 2010 , we continued to maintain in storage approximately 17% ( 17 % ) of our multiple purpose locomotives and 14% ( 14 % ) of our freight car inventory , reflecting our ability to effectively leverage our assets as volumes return to our network . 2022 fuel prices 2013 fuel prices generally increased throughout 2010 as the economy improved . our average diesel fuel price per gallon increased nearly 20% ( 20 % ) from january to december of 2010 , driven by higher crude oil barrel prices and conversion spreads . compared to 2009 , our diesel fuel price per gallon consumed increased 31% ( 31 % ) , driving operating expenses up by $ 566 million ( excluding any impact from year-over-year volume increases ) . to partially offset the effect of higher fuel prices , we reduced our consumption rate by 3% ( 3 % ) during the year , saving approximately 27 million gallons of fuel . the use of newer , more fuel efficient locomotives ; increased use of distributed locomotive power ( the practice of distributing locomotives throughout a train rather than positioning them all in the lead resulting in safer and more efficient train operations ) ; fuel conservation programs ; and efficient network operations and asset utilization all contributed to this improvement . 2022 free cash flow 2013 cash generated by operating activities ( adjusted for the reclassification of our receivables securitization facility ) totaled $ 4.5 billion , yielding record free cash flow of $ 1.4 billion in 2010 . free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities ( adjusted for the reclassification of our receivables securitization facility ) , less cash used in investing activities and dividends paid . free cash flow is not considered a financial measure under accounting principles generally accepted in the u.s . ( gaap ) by sec regulation g and item 10 of sec regulation s-k . we believe free cash flow is important in evaluating our financial performance and measures our ability to generate cash without additional external financings . free cash flow should be considered in addition to , rather than as a substitute for , cash provided by operating activities . the following table reconciles cash provided by operating activities ( gaap measure ) to free cash flow ( non-gaap measure ) : millions 2010 2009 2008 .

depreciation 2013 the railroad industry is capital intensive . properties are carried at cost . provisions for depreciation are computed principally on the straight-line method based on estimated service lives of depreciable property . the lives are calculated using a separate composite annual percentage rate for each depreciable property group , based on the results of internal depreciation studies . we are required to submit a report on depreciation studies and proposed depreciation rates to the stb for review and approval every three years for equipment property and every six years for road property . the cost ( net of salvage ) of depreciable railroad property retired or replaced in the ordinary course of business is charged to accumulated depreciation , and no gain or loss is recognized . a gain or loss is recognized in other income for all other property upon disposition because the gain or loss is not part of rail operations . the cost of internally developed software is capitalized and amortized over a five-year period . significant capital spending in recent years increased the total value of our depreciable assets . cash capital spending totaled $ 2.2 billion for the year ended december 31 , 2006 . for the year ended december 31 , 2006 , depreciation expense was $ 1.2 billion . we use various methods to estimate useful lives for each group of depreciable property . due to the capital intensive nature of the business and the large base of depreciable assets , variances to those estimates could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements . if the estimated useful lives of all depreciable assets were increased by one year , annual depreciation expense would decrease by approximately $ 43 million . if the estimated useful lives of all assets to be depreciated were decreased by one year , annual depreciation expense would increase by approximately $ 45 million . income taxes 2013 as required under fasb statement no . 109 , accounting for income taxes , we account for income taxes by recording taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns . these .
