these gains were less than gains recognized in fiscal 2017 . fiscal 2017 included a $ 535 million gain from the sale of our yihaodian business and a $ 194 million gain from the sale of shopping malls in chile . for fiscal 2018 , loss on extinguishment of debt was a0$ 3.1 billion , due to the early extinguishment of long-term debt which allowed us to retire higher rate debt to reduce interest expense in future periods . our effective income tax rate was 30.4% ( 30.4 % ) for fiscal 2018 and 30.3% ( 30.3 % ) for both fiscal 2017 and 2016 . although relatively consistent year-over-year , our effective income tax rate may fluctuate from period to period as a result of factors including changes in our assessment of certain tax contingencies , valuation allowances , changes in tax laws , outcomes of administrative audits , the impact of discrete items and the mix of earnings among our u.s . operations and international operations . the reconciliation from the u.s . statutory rate to

when compared to the previous fiscal year . for fiscal 2018 , the decrease was primarily due to strategic price investments and the mix impact from ecommerce . partially offsetting the negative factors for fiscal 2018 was the positive impact of savings from procuring merchandise . for fiscal 2017 , the increase in gross profit rate was primarily due to improved margin in food and consumables , including the impact of savings in procuring merchandise and lower transportation expense from lower fuel costs . operating expenses as a percentage of segment net sales was relatively flat for fiscal 2018 and increased 101 basis points for fiscal 2017 , when compared to the previous fiscal year . fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 included charges related to discontinued real estate projects of $

related to discontinued real estate projects ; and investments in digital retail and technology . the increase in operating expenses as a percentage of segment net sales for fiscal 2017 was partially offset by the impact of store closures in fiscal 2016 . as a result of the factors discussed above , segment operating income increased $ 124 million for fiscal 2018 and decreased $ 1.3 billion for
