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 ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>u.k .</td><td>u.s .</td><td>other</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>combined experience loss</td><td>$ 2012</td><td>$ 1219</td><td>$ 402</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>amortization period ( in years )</td><td>29</td><td>26</td><td>11 - 23</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>estimated 2014 amortization of loss</td><td>$ 53</td><td>$ 44</td><td>$ 10</td></tr></table> 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. .

arrears on february 15 and august 15 of each year , and commenced august 15 , 2005 . prior to february 15 , 2009 , the debentures could have been convertible at the option of the holder at a decem- ber 31 , 2008 conversion rate of 9.9639 shares of common stock per one dollar principal amount of debentures under certain circumstances . the debentures would have been convertible into cash and , in some situations as described below , additional shares of the company 2019s common stock , if during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period the trading price per debenture for each day of such period is less than 103% ( 103 % ) of the product of the last reported sales price of blackrock 2019s common stock and the conversion rate of the debentures on each such day or upon the occurrence of certain other corporate events , such as a distribution to the holders of blackrock common stock of certain rights , assets or debt securities , if the company becomes party to a merger , consolidation or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets or a change of control of the company . on february 15 , 2009 , the debentures became convertible into cash at any time prior to maturity at the option of the holder and , in some situations as described below , additional shares of the company 2019s common stock at the current conversion rate . at the time the debentures are tendered for conver- sion , for each one dollar principal amount of debentures converted , a holder shall be entitled to receive cash and shares of blackrock common stock , if any , the aggregate value of which ( the 201cconversion value 201d ) will be deter- mined by multiplying the applicable conversion rate by the average of the daily volume weighted average price of blackrock common stock for each of the ten consecutive trading days beginning on the second trading day imme- diately following the day the debentures are tendered for conversion ( the 201cten-day weighted average price 201d ) . the company will deliver the conversion value to holders as follows : ( 1 ) an amount in cash ( the 201cprincipal return 201d ) equal to the lesser of ( a ) the aggregate conversion value of the debentures to be converted and ( b ) the aggregate principal amount of the debentures to be converted , and ( 2 ) if the aggregate conversion value of the debentures to be converted is greater than the principal return , an amount in shares ( the 201cnet shares 201d ) , determined as set forth below , equal to such aggregate conversion value less the principal return ( the 201cnet share amount 201d ) . the number of net shares to be paid will be determined by dividing the net share amount by the ten-day weighted average price . in lieu of delivering fractional shares , the company will deliver cash based on the ten-day weighted average price . the conversion rate for the debentures is subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain corporate events , such as a change of control of the company , 193253ti_txt.indd 96 4/2/10 1:18 pm .

notes to consolidated financial statements derivatives with credit-related contingent features certain of the firm 2019s derivatives have been transacted under bilateral agreements with counterparties who may require the firm to post collateral or terminate the transactions based on changes in the firm 2019s credit ratings . the firm assesses the impact of these bilateral agreements by determining the collateral or termination payments that would occur assuming a downgrade by all rating agencies . a downgrade by any one rating agency , depending on the agency 2019s relative ratings of the firm at the time of the downgrade , may have an impact which is comparable to the impact of a downgrade by all rating agencies . the table below presents the aggregate fair value of net derivative liabilities under such agreements ( excluding application of collateral posted to reduce these liabilities ) , the related aggregate fair value of the assets posted as collateral , and the additional collateral or termination payments that could have been called at the reporting date by counterparties in the event of a one-notch and two-notch downgrade in the firm 2019s credit ratings. . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>$ in millions</td><td>as of december 2014</td><td>as of december 2013</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net derivative liabilities under bilateral agreements</td><td>$ 35764</td><td>$ 22176</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>collateral posted</td><td>30824</td><td>18178</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>additional collateral or termination payments for a one-notch downgrade</td><td>1072</td><td>911</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>additional collateral or termination payments for a two-notch downgrade</td><td>2815</td><td>2989</td></tr></table> additional collateral or termination payments for a one-notch downgrade 1072 911 additional collateral or termination payments for a two-notch downgrade 2815 2989 credit derivatives the firm enters into a broad array of credit derivatives in locations around the world to facilitate client transactions and to manage the credit risk associated with market- making and investing and lending activities . credit derivatives are actively managed based on the firm 2019s net risk position . credit derivatives are individually negotiated contracts and can have various settlement and payment conventions . credit events include failure to pay , bankruptcy , acceleration of indebtedness , restructuring , repudiation and dissolution of the reference entity . credit default swaps . single-name credit default swaps protect the buyer against the loss of principal on one or more bonds , loans or mortgages ( reference obligations ) in the event the issuer ( reference entity ) of the reference obligations suffers a credit event . the buyer of protection pays an initial or periodic premium to the seller and receives protection for the period of the contract . if there is no credit event , as defined in the contract , the seller of protection makes no payments to the buyer of protection . however , if a credit event occurs , the seller of protection is required to make a payment to the buyer of protection , which is calculated in accordance with the terms of the contract . credit indices , baskets and tranches . credit derivatives may reference a basket of single-name credit default swaps or a broad-based index . if a credit event occurs in one of the underlying reference obligations , the protection seller pays the protection buyer . the payment is typically a pro-rata portion of the transaction 2019s total notional amount based on the underlying defaulted reference obligation . in certain transactions , the credit risk of a basket or index is separated into various portions ( tranches ) , each having different levels of subordination . the most junior tranches cover initial defaults and once losses exceed the notional amount of these junior tranches , any excess loss is covered by the next most senior tranche in the capital structure . total return swaps . a total return swap transfers the risks relating to economic performance of a reference obligation from the protection buyer to the protection seller . typically , the protection buyer receives from the protection seller a floating rate of interest and protection against any reduction in fair value of the reference obligation , and in return the protection seller receives the cash flows associated with the reference obligation , plus any increase in the fair value of the reference obligation . 132 goldman sachs 2014 annual report .

improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the remaining respective lease term or estimated useful lives ranging from 1 to 15 years . goodwill , purchased intangibles and other long-lived assets we review our goodwill for impairment annually , or more frequently , if facts and circumstances warrant a review . we completed our annual impairment test in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and determined that there was no impairment . in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 , we announced changes to our business strategy which resulted in a reduction of forecasted revenue for certain of our products . we performed an update to our goodwill impairment test for the enterprise reporting unit and determined there was no impairment . 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 2011 , 2010 or 2009 . 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 intangibles assets was as follows: . <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>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> weighted average useful life ( years ) 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 . table of contents adobe systems incorporated notes to consolidated financial statements ( continued ) .

and about $ 55 million related to the settlements of contract cost matters on certain programs ( including a portion of the terminated presidential helicopter program ) in 2013 that were not repeated in 2014 . the decreases were offset by higher net sales of approximately $ 80 million for integrated warfare systems and sensors programs due to increased volume ( primarily space fence ) ; and approximately $ 40 million for training and logistics solutions programs due to increased deliveries ( primarily close combat tactical trainer ) . mst 2019s operating profit for 2014 decreased $ 62 million , or 7% ( 7 % ) , compared to 2013 . the decrease was primarily attributable to lower operating profit of approximately $ 120 million related to the settlements of contract cost matters on certain programs ( including a portion of the terminated presidential helicopter program ) in 2013 that were not repeated in 2014 ; and approximately $ 45 million due to higher reserves recorded on certain training and logistics solutions programs . the decreases were partially offset by higher operating profit of approximately $ 45 million for performance matters and reserves recorded in 2013 that were not repeated in 2014 ; and about $ 60 million for various programs due to increased risk retirements ( including mh-60 and radar surveillance programs ) . adjustments not related to volume , including net profit booking rate adjustments and other matters , were approximately $ 50 million lower for 2014 compared to 2013 . 2013 compared to 2012 mst 2019s net sales for 2013 decreased $ 426 million , or 6% ( 6 % ) , compared to 2012 . the decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of approximately $ 275 million for various ship and aviation systems programs due to lower volume ( primarily ptds as final surveillance system deliveries occurred during the second quarter of 2012 ) ; about $ 195 million for various integrated warfare systems and sensors programs ( primarily naval systems ) due to lower volume ; approximately $ 65 million for various training and logistics programs due to lower volume ; and about $ 55 million for the aegis program due to lower volume . the decreases were partially offset by higher net sales of about $ 155 million for the lcs program due to increased volume . mst 2019s operating profit for 2013 increased $ 168 million , or 23% ( 23 % ) , compared to 2012 . the increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of approximately $ 120 million related to the settlement of contract cost matters on certain programs ( including a portion of the terminated presidential helicopter program ) ; about $ 55 million for integrated warfare systems and sensors programs ( primarily radar and halifax class modernization programs ) due to increased risk retirements ; and approximately $ 30 million for undersea systems programs due to increased risk retirements . the increases were partially offset by lower operating profit of about $ 55 million for training and logistics programs , primarily due to the recording of approximately $ 30 million of charges mostly related to lower-of-cost-or-market considerations ; and about $ 25 million for ship and aviation systems programs ( primarily ptds ) due to lower risk retirements and volume . operating profit related to the lcs program was comparable . adjustments not related to volume , including net profit booking rate adjustments and other matters , were approximately $ 170 million higher for 2013 compared to 2012 . backlog backlog increased in 2014 compared to 2013 primarily due to higher orders on new program starts ( such as space fence ) . backlog increased slightly in 2013 compared to 2012 mainly due to higher orders and lower sales on integrated warfare system and sensors programs ( primarily aegis ) and lower sales on various service programs , partially offset by lower orders on ship and aviation systems ( primarily mh-60 ) . .

the analysis of our depreciation studies . changes in the estimated service lives of our assets and their related depreciation rates are implemented prospectively . under group depreciation , the historical cost ( net of salvage ) of depreciable property that is retired or replaced in the ordinary course of business is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized . the historical cost of certain track assets is estimated using ( i ) inflation indices published by the bureau of labor statistics and ( ii ) the estimated useful lives of the assets as determined by our depreciation studies . the indices were selected because they closely correlate with the major costs of the properties comprising the applicable track asset classes . because of the number of estimates inherent in the depreciation and retirement processes and because it is impossible to precisely estimate each of these variables until a group of property is completely retired , we continually monitor the estimated service lives of our assets and the accumulated depreciation associated with each asset class to ensure our depreciation rates are appropriate . in addition , we determine if the recorded amount of accumulated depreciation is deficient ( or in excess ) of the amount indicated by our depreciation studies . any deficiency ( or excess ) is amortized as a component of depreciation expense over the remaining service lives of the applicable classes of assets . for retirements of depreciable railroad properties that do not occur in the normal course of business , a gain or loss may be recognized if the retirement meets each of the following three conditions : ( i ) is unusual , ( ii ) is material in amount , and ( iii ) varies significantly from the retirement profile identified through our depreciation studies . a gain or loss is recognized in other income when we sell land or dispose of assets that are not part of our railroad operations . when we purchase an asset , we capitalize all costs necessary to make the asset ready for its intended use . however , many of our assets are self-constructed . a large portion of our capital expenditures is for replacement of existing track assets and other road properties , which is typically performed by our employees , and for track line expansion and other capacity projects . costs that are directly attributable to capital projects ( including overhead costs ) are capitalized . direct costs that are capitalized as part of self- constructed assets include material , labor , and work equipment . indirect costs are capitalized if they clearly relate to the construction of the asset . general and administrative expenditures are expensed as incurred . normal repairs and maintenance are also expensed as incurred , while costs incurred that extend the useful life of an asset , improve the safety of our operations or improve operating efficiency are capitalized . these costs are allocated using appropriate statistical bases . total expense for repairs and maintenance incurred was $ 2.3 billion for 2013 , $ 2.1 billion for 2012 , and $ 2.2 billion for 2011 . assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease . amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease . 12 . accounts payable and other current liabilities dec . 31 , dec . 31 , millions 2013 2012 . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>millions</td><td>dec . 31 2013</td><td>dec . 312012</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>accounts payable</td><td>$ 803</td><td>$ 825</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>income and other taxes payable</td><td>491</td><td>368</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>accrued wages and vacation</td><td>385</td><td>376</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>dividends payable</td><td>356</td><td>318</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>accrued casualty costs</td><td>207</td><td>213</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>interest payable</td><td>169</td><td>172</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>equipment rents payable</td><td>96</td><td>95</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>other</td><td>579</td><td>556</td></tr><tr><td>10</td><td>total accounts payable and othercurrent liabilities</td><td>$ 3086</td><td>$ 2923</td></tr></table> .

jpmorgan chase & co./2018 form 10-k 117 lending-related commitments the firm uses lending-related financial instruments , such as commitments ( including revolving credit facilities ) and guarantees , to address the financing needs of its clients . the contractual amounts of these financial instruments represent the maximum possible credit risk should the clients draw down on these commitments or the firm fulfill its obligations under these guarantees , and the clients subsequently fail to perform according to the terms of these contracts . most of these commitments and guarantees are refinanced , extended , cancelled , or expire without being drawn upon or a default occurring . in the firm 2019s view , the total contractual amount of these wholesale lending-related commitments is not representative of the firm 2019s expected future credit exposure or funding requirements . for further information on wholesale lending-related commitments , refer to note 27 . clearing services the firm provides clearing services for clients entering into certain securities and derivative contracts . through the provision of these services the firm is exposed to the risk of non-performance by its clients and may be required to share in losses incurred by ccps . where possible , the firm seeks to mitigate its credit risk to its clients through the collection of adequate margin at inception and throughout the life of the transactions and can also cease provision of clearing services if clients do not adhere to their obligations under the clearing agreement . for further discussion of clearing services , refer to note 27 . derivative contracts derivatives enable clients and counterparties to manage risks including credit risk and risks arising from fluctuations in interest rates , foreign exchange , equities , and commodities . the firm makes markets in derivatives in order to meet these needs and uses derivatives to manage certain risks associated with net open risk positions from its market-making activities , including the counterparty credit risk arising from derivative receivables . the firm also uses derivative instruments to manage its own credit and other market risk exposure . the nature of the counterparty and the settlement mechanism of the derivative affect the credit risk to which the firm is exposed . for otc derivatives the firm is exposed to the credit risk of the derivative counterparty . for exchange-traded derivatives ( 201cetd 201d ) , such as futures and options , and 201ccleared 201d over-the-counter ( 201cotc-cleared 201d ) derivatives , the firm is generally exposed to the credit risk of the relevant ccp . where possible , the firm seeks to mitigate its credit risk exposures arising from derivative contracts through the use of legally enforceable master netting arrangements and collateral agreements . for a further discussion of derivative contracts , counterparties and settlement types , refer to note 5 . the following table summarizes the net derivative receivables for the periods presented . derivative receivables . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>december 31 ( in millions )</td><td>2018</td><td>2017</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>total net of cash collateral</td><td>$ 54213</td><td>$ 56523</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>liquid securities and other cash collateral held against

collateral related to derivative instruments where appropriate legal opinions have not been either sought or obtained with respect to master netting agreements . the fair value of derivative receivables reported on the consolidated balance sheets were $ 54.2 billion and $ 56.5 billion at december 31 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively . derivative receivables represent the fair value of the derivative contracts after giving effect to legally enforceable master netting agreements and cash collateral held by the firm . however , in management 2019s view , the appropriate measure of current credit risk should also take into consideration additional liquid securities ( primarily u.s . government and agency securities and other group of seven nations ( 201cg7 201d ) government securities ) and other cash collateral held by the firm aggregating $ 15.3 billion and $ 16.1 billion at december 31 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively , that may be used as security when the fair value of the client 2019s exposure is in the firm 2019s favor . in addition to the collateral described in the preceding paragraph , the firm also holds additional collateral ( primarily cash , g7 government securities , other liquid government-agency and guaranteed securities , and corporate debt and equity securities ) delivered by clients at the initiation of transactions , as well as collateral related to contracts that have a non-daily call frequency and collateral that the firm has agreed to return but has not yet settled as of the reporting date . although this collateral does not reduce the balances and is not included in the table above , it is available as security against potential exposure that could arise should the fair value of the client 2019s derivative contracts move in the firm 2019s favor . the derivative receivables fair value , net of all collateral , also does not include other credit enhancements , such as letters of credit . for additional information on the firm 2019s use of collateral agreements , refer to note 5 . while useful as a current view of credit exposure , the net fair value of the derivative receivables does not capture the potential future variability of that credit exposure . to capture the potential future variability of credit exposure , the firm calculates , on a client-by-client basis , three measures of potential derivatives-related credit loss : peak , derivative risk equivalent ( 201cdre 201d ) , and average exposure ( 201cavg 201d ) . these measures all incorporate netting and collateral benefits , where applicable . peak represents a conservative measure of potential exposure to a counterparty calculated in a manner that is broadly equivalent to a 97.5% ( 97.5 % ) confidence level over the life of the transaction . peak is the primary measure used by the firm for setting of credit limits for derivative contracts , senior management reporting and derivatives exposure management . dre exposure is a measure that expresses the risk of derivative exposure on a basis intended to be .

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$ / . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>year</td><td>2017</td><td>2016</td><td>2015</td><td>2014</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>spot price cap as defined by

table of contents the company uses some custom components that are not commonly used by its competitors , and new products introduced by the company often utilize custom components available from only one source . when a component or product uses new technologies , initial capacity constraints may exist until the suppliers 2019 yields have matured or manufacturing capacity has increased . if the company 2019s supply of components for a new or existing product were delayed or constrained , or if an outsourcing partner delayed shipments of completed products to the company , the company 2019s financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected . the company 2019s business and financial performance could also be materially adversely affected depending on the time required to obtain sufficient quantities from the original source , or to identify and obtain sufficient quantities from an alternative source . continued availability of these components at acceptable prices , or at all , may be affected if those suppliers concentrated on the production of common components instead of components customized to meet the company 2019s requirements . the company has entered into agreements for the supply of many components ; however , there can be no guarantee that the company will be able to extend or renew these agreements on similar terms , or at all . therefore , the company remains subject to significant risks of supply shortages and price increases that could materially adversely affect its financial condition and operating results . substantially all of the company 2019s hardware products are manufactured by outsourcing partners that are located primarily in asia . a significant concentration of this manufacturing is currently performed by a small number of outsourcing partners , often in single locations . certain of these outsourcing partners are the sole- sourced suppliers of components and manufacturers for many of the company 2019s products . although the company works closely with its outsourcing partners on manufacturing schedules , the company 2019s operating results could be adversely affected if its outsourcing partners were unable to meet their production commitments . the company 2019s purchase commitments typically cover its requirements for periods up to 150 days . other off-balance sheet commitments operating leases the company leases various equipment and facilities , including retail space , under noncancelable operating lease arrangements . the company does not currently utilize any other off-balance sheet financing arrangements . the major facility leases are typically for terms not exceeding 10 years and generally contain multi-year renewal options . as of september 26 , 2015 , the company had a total of 463 retail stores . leases for retail space are for terms ranging from five to 20 years , the majority of which are for 10 years , and often contain multi-year renewal options . as of september 26 , 2015 , the company 2019s total future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases were $ 6.3 billion , of which $ 3.6 billion related to leases for retail space . rent expense under all operating leases , including both cancelable and noncancelable leases , was $ 794 million , $ 717 million and $ 645 million in 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , respectively . future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of september 26 , 2015 , are as follows ( in millions ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>2016</td><td>$ 772</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>2017</td><td>774</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>2018</td><td>744</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>2019</td><td>715</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>2020</td><td>674</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>thereafter</td><td>2592</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>total</td><td>$ 6271</td></tr></table> other commitments the company utilizes several outsourcing partners to manufacture sub-assemblies for the company 2019s products and to perform final assembly and testing of finished products . these outsourcing partners acquire components and build product based on demand information supplied by the company , which typically covers periods up to 150 days . the company also obtains individual components for its products from a wide variety of individual suppliers . consistent with industry practice , the company acquires components through a combination of purchase orders , supplier contracts and open orders based on projected demand information . where appropriate , the purchases are applied to inventory component prepayments that are outstanding with the respective supplier . as of september 26 , 2015 , the company had outstanding off-balance sheet third-party manufacturing commitments and component purchase commitments of $ 29.5 billion . apple inc . | 2015 form 10-k | 65 .

impairment net unrealized losses on securities available for sale were as follows as of december 31: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( in millions )</td><td>2009</td><td>2008</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>fair value</td><td>$ 72699</td><td>$ 54163</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>amortized cost</td><td>74843</td><td>60786</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>net unrealized loss pre-tax</td><td>$ -2144 ( 2144 )</td><td>$ -6623 ( 6623 )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>net unrealized loss after-tax</td><td>$ -1316 ( 1316 )</td><td>$ -4057 ( 4057 )</td></tr></table> the above net unrealized loss amounts at december 31 , 2009 and december 31 , 2008 excluded the remaining net unrealized loss of $ 1.01 billion , or $ 635 million after-tax , and $ 2.27 billion , or $ 1.39 billion after- tax , respectively , related to reclassifications of securities available for sale to securities held to maturity . these after-tax amounts are recorded in other comprehensive income . the decline in the remaining after-tax unrealized loss amounts related to transferred securities resulted from amortization and from the recognition of losses from other-than-temporary impairment on certain of the securities . we conduct periodic reviews of individual securities to assess whether other-than-temporary impairment exists . to the extent that other-than-temporary impairment is identified , the impairment is broken into a credit component and a non-credit component . the credit component is recognized in our consolidated statement of income , and the non-credit component is recognized in other comprehensive income to the extent that management does not intend to sell the security ( see note 3 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included under item 8 ) . the assessment of other-than-temporary impairment involves an evaluation of economic and security- specific factors , which are more fully described in note 3 . such factors are based upon estimates , derived by management , which contemplate current market conditions and security-specific performance . to the extent that market conditions are worse than management 2019s expectations , other-than-temporary impairment could increase , in particular the credit component that would be recognized in our consolidated statement of income . national housing prices , according to the case-shiller national hpi , have declined to date approximately 30% ( 30 % ) peak-to-current . management currently estimates that national housing prices will continue to decline and bottom out during the second half of 2010 , consistent with a peak-to-trough housing price decline of approximately 37% ( 37 % ) . as an indication of the sensitivity of our portfolio with respect to our more significant assumptions underlying our assessment of impairment , if we were to increase our default estimates to 110% ( 110 % ) of management 2019s current expectations with a corresponding slowing of prepayment speeds to 90% ( 90 % ) of management 2019s current expectations , credit-related other-than-temporary impairment could increase by approximately $ 120 million to $ 125 million , which impairment would be recorded in our consolidated statement of income . excluding the securities for which other-than-temporary impairment was recorded , management considers the aggregate decline in fair value of the remaining securities and the resulting net unrealized losses to be temporary and not the result of any material changes in the credit characteristics of the securities . additional information about our assessment of impairment is provided in note 3 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included under item 8. .

( a ) the net change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended december 31 , 2018 and 2017 was an increase of $ 12 million and an increase of $ 26 million , respectively . deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet under the captions deferred charges and other assets and deferred income taxes . there was a decrease in deferred income tax assets principally relating to the utilization of u.s . federal alternative minimum tax credits as permitted under tax reform . deferred tax liabilities increased primarily due to the tax deferral of the book gain recognized on the transfer of the north american consumer packaging business to a subsidiary of graphic packaging holding company . of the $ 1.5 billion of deferred tax liabilities for forestlands , related installment sales , and investment in subsidiary , $ 884 million is attributable to an investment in subsidiary and relates to a 2006 international paper installment sale of forestlands and $ 538 million is attributable to a 2007 temple-inland installment sale of forestlands ( see note 14 ) . a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended december 31 , 2018 , 2017 and 2016 is as follows: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in millions</td><td>2018</td><td>2017</td><td>2016</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>balance at january 1</td><td>$ -188 ( 188 )</td><td>$ -98 ( 98 )</td><td>$ -150 ( 150 )</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>( additions ) reductions based on tax positions related to current year</td><td>-7 ( 7 )</td><td>-54 ( 54 )</td><td>-4 ( 4 )</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>( additions ) for tax positions of prior years</td><td>-37 ( 37 )</td><td>-40 ( 40 )</td><td>-3 ( 3 )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>reductions for tax positions of prior years</td><td>5</td><td>4</td><td>33</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>settlements</td><td>2</td><td>6</td><td>19</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>expiration of statutes oflimitations</td><td>2</td><td>1</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>currency translation adjustment</td><td>3</td><td>-7 ( 7 )</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>balance at december 31</td><td>$ -220 ( 220 )</td><td>$ -188 ( 188 )</td><td>$ -98 ( 98 )</td></tr></table> if the company were to prevail on the unrecognized tax benefits recorded , substantially all of the balances at december 31 , 2018 , 2017 and 2016 would benefit the effective tax rate . the company accrues interest on unrecognized tax benefits as a component of interest expense . penalties , if incurred , are recognized as a component of income tax expense . the company had approximately $ 21 million and $ 17 million accrued for the payment of estimated interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits at december 31 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively . the major jurisdictions where the company files income tax returns are the united states , brazil , france , poland and russia . generally , tax years 2006 through 2017 remain open and subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities . the company frequently faces challenges regarding the amount of taxes due . these challenges include positions taken by the company related to the timing , nature , and amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions . pending audit settlements and the expiration of statute of limitations could reduce the uncertain tax positions by $ 30 million during the next twelve months . the brazilian federal revenue service has challenged the deductibility of goodwill amortization generated in a 2007 acquisition by international paper do brasil ltda. , a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company . the company received assessments for the tax years 2007-2015 totaling approximately $ 150 million in tax , and $ 380 million in interest and penalties as of december 31 , 2018 ( adjusted for variation in currency exchange rates ) . after a previous favorable ruling challenging the basis for these assessments , we received an unfavorable decision in october 2018 from the brazilian administrative council of tax appeals . the company intends to further appeal the matter in the brazilian federal courts in 2019 ; however , this tax litigation matter may take many years to resolve . the company believes that it has appropriately evaluated the transaction underlying these assessments , and has concluded based on brazilian tax law , that its tax position would be sustained . the company intends to vigorously defend its position against the current assessments and any similar assessments that may be issued for tax years subsequent to 2015 . international paper uses the flow-through method to account for investment tax credits earned on eligible open-loop biomass facilities and combined heat and power system expenditures . under this method , the investment tax credits are recognized as a reduction to income tax expense in the year they are earned rather than a reduction in the asset basis . the company recorded a tax benefit of $ 6 million during 2018 and recorded a tax benefit of $ 68 million during 2017 related to investment tax credits earned in tax years 2013-2017. .

$ 43.3 million in 2011 compared to $ 34.1 million in 2010 . the retail segment represented 13% ( 13 % ) and 15% ( 15 % ) of the company 2019s total net sales in 2011 and 2010 , respectively . the retail segment 2019s operating income was $ 4.7 billion , $ 3.2 billion , and $ 2.3 billion during 2012 , 2011 , and 2010 respectively . these year-over-year increases in retail operating income were primarily attributable to higher overall net sales that resulted in significantly higher average revenue per store during the respective years . gross margin gross margin for 2012 , 2011 and 2010 are as follows ( in millions , except gross margin percentages ) : . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2012</td><td>2011</td><td>2010</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net sales</td><td>$ 156508</td><td>$ 108249</td><td>$ 65225</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>cost of sales</td><td>87846</td><td>64431</td><td>39541</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>gross margin</td><td>$ 68662</td><td>$ 43818</td><td>$ 25684</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>gross margin percentage</td><td>43.9% ( 43.9 % )</td><td>40.5% ( 40.5 % )</td><td>39.4% ( 39.4 % )</td></tr></table> the gross margin percentage in 2012 was 43.9% ( 43.9 % ) , compared to 40.5% ( 40.5 % ) in 2011 . this year-over-year increase in gross margin was largely driven by lower commodity and other product costs , a higher mix of iphone sales , and improved leverage on fixed costs from higher net sales . the increase in gross margin was partially offset by the impact of a stronger u.s . dollar . the gross margin percentage during the first half of 2012 was 45.9% ( 45.9 % ) compared to 41.4% ( 41.4 % ) during the second half of 2012 . the primary drivers of higher gross margin in the first half of 2012 compared to the second half are a higher mix of iphone sales and improved leverage on fixed costs from higher net sales . additionally , gross margin in the second half of 2012 was also affected by the introduction of new products with flat pricing that have higher cost structures and deliver greater value to customers , price reductions on certain existing products , higher transition costs associated with product launches , and continued strengthening of the u.s . dollar ; partially offset by lower commodity costs . the gross margin percentage in 2011 was 40.5% ( 40.5 % ) , compared to 39.4% ( 39.4 % ) in 2010 . this year-over-year increase in gross margin was largely driven by lower commodity and other product costs . the company expects to experience decreases in its gross margin percentage in future periods , as compared to levels achieved during 2012 , and the company anticipates gross margin of about 36% ( 36 % ) during the first quarter of 2013 . expected future declines in gross margin are largely due to a higher mix of new and innovative products with flat or reduced pricing that have higher cost structures and deliver greater value to customers and anticipated component cost and other cost increases . future strengthening of the u.s . dollar could further negatively impact gross margin . the foregoing statements regarding the company 2019s expected gross margin percentage in future periods , including the first quarter of 2013 , are forward-looking and could differ from actual results because of several factors including , but not limited to those set forth above in part i , item 1a of this form 10-k under the heading 201crisk factors 201d and those described in this paragraph . 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 product pricing pressures , increased competition , compressed product life cycles , product transitions and potential increases in the cost of components , as well as potential increases in the costs of outside manufacturing services and a potential shift in the company 2019s sales mix towards products with lower gross margins . in response to competitive pressures , the company expects it will continue to take product pricing actions , which would adversely affect gross margins . gross margins could also be affected by the company 2019s ability to manage product quality and warranty costs effectively and to stimulate demand for certain of its products . due to the company 2019s significant international operations , financial results can be significantly affected in the short-term by fluctuations in exchange rates. .

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. .

excluding restructuring costs ) in 2012 and $ 66 million ( $ 61 million excluding a gain for a bargain purchase price adjustment on an acquisition by our then joint venture in turkey and costs associated with the closure of our etienne mill in france in 2009 ) in 2011 . sales volumes in 2013 were higher than in 2012 reflecting strong demand for packaging in the agricultural markets in morocco and turkey . in europe , sales volumes decreased slightly due to continuing weak demand for packaging in the industrial markets , and lower demand for packaging in the agricultural markets resulting from poor weather conditions . average sales margins were significantly lower due to input costs for containerboard rising ahead of box sales price increases . other input costs were also higher , primarily for energy . operating profits in 2013 and 2012 included net gains of $ 13 million and $ 10 million , respectively , for insurance settlements and italian government grants , partially offset by additional operating costs , related to the earthquakes in northern italy in may 2012 which affected our san felice box plant . entering the first quarter of 2014 , sales volumes are expected to increase slightly reflecting higher demand for packaging in the industrial markets . average sales margins are expected to gradually improve as a result of slight reductions in material costs and planned box price increases . other input costs should be about flat . brazilian industrial packaging includes the results of orsa international paper embalagens s.a. , a corrugated packaging producer in which international paper acquired a 75% ( 75 % ) share in january 2013 . net sales were $ 335 million in 2013 . operating profits in 2013 were a loss of $ 2 million ( a gain of $ 2 million excluding acquisition and integration costs ) . looking ahead to the first quarter of 2014 , sales volumes are expected to be seasonally lower than in the fourth quarter of 2013 . average sales margins should improve reflecting the partial implementation of an announced sales price increase and a more favorable product mix . operating costs and input costs are expected to be lower . asian industrial packaging net sales were $ 400 million in 2013 compared with $ 400 million in 2012 and $ 410 million in 2011 . operating profits for the packaging operations were a loss of $ 5 million in 2013 ( a loss of $ 1 million excluding restructuring costs ) compared with gains of $ 2 million in 2012 and $ 2 million in 2011 . operating profits were favorably impacted in 2013 by higher average sales margins and slightly higher sales volumes compared with 2012 , but these benefits were offset by higher operating costs . looking ahead to the first quarter of 2014 , sales volumes and average sales margins are expected to be seasonally soft . net sales for the distribution operations were $ 285 million in 2013 compared with $ 260 million in 2012 and $ 285 million in 2011 . operating profits were $ 3 million in 2013 , 2012 and 2011 . printing papers demand for printing papers products is closely correlated with changes in commercial printing and advertising activity , direct mail volumes and , for uncoated cut-size products , with changes in white- collar employment levels that affect the usage of copy and laser printer paper . pulp is further affected by changes in currency rates that can enhance or disadvantage producers in different geographic regions . principal cost drivers include manufacturing efficiency , raw material and energy costs and freight costs . printing papers net sales for 2013 were about flat with both 2012 and 2011 . operating profits in 2013 were 55% ( 55 % ) lower than in 2012 and 69% ( 69 % ) lower than in 2011 . excluding facility closure costs and impairment costs , operating profits in 2013 were 15% ( 15 % ) lower than in 2012 and 40% ( 40 % ) lower than in 2011 . benefits from lower operating costs ( $ 81 million ) and lower maintenance outage costs ( $ 17 million ) were more than offset by lower average sales price realizations ( $ 38 million ) , lower sales volumes ( $ 14 million ) , higher input costs ( $ 99 million ) and higher other costs ( $ 34 million ) . in addition , operating profits in 2013 included costs of $ 118 million associated with the announced closure of our courtland , alabama mill . during 2013 , the company accelerated depreciation for certain courtland assets , and diligently evaluated certain other assets for possible alternative uses by one of our other businesses . the net book value of these assets at december 31 , 2013 was approximately $ 470 million . during 2014 , we have continued our evaluation and expect to conclude as to any uses for these assets during the first quarter of 2014 . operating profits also included a $ 123 million impairment charge associated with goodwill and a trade name intangible asset in our india papers business . operating profits in 2011 included a
