2022 relative market position ; 2022 strong risk management ; 2022 strong capital ratios ; 2022 diverse liquidity sources , including the global capital markets and client deposits ; 2022 strong liquidity monitoring procedures ; and 2022 preparedness for current or future regulatory developments . high ratings limit borrowing costs and enhance our liquidity by : 2022 providing assurance for unsecured funding and depositors ; 2022 increasing the potential market for our debt and improving our ability to offer products ; 2022 serving markets ; and 2022 engaging in transactions in which clients value high credit ratings . a downgrade or reduction of our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity by restricting our ability to access the capital markets , which could increase the related cost of funds . in turn , this could cause the sudden and large-scale withdrawal of unsecured deposits by our clients , which could lead to draw-downs of unfunded commitments to extend credit or trigger requirements under securities purchase commitments ; or require additional collateral or force terminations of certain trading derivative contracts . a majority of our derivative contracts have been entered into under bilateral agreements with counterparties who may require us to post collateral or terminate the transactions based on changes in our credit ratings . we assess the impact of these arrangements by determining the collateral that would be required assuming a downgrade by all rating agencies . the additional collateral or termination payments related to our net derivative liabilities under these arrangements that could have been called by counterparties in the event of a downgrade in our credit ratings below levels specified in the agreements is disclosed in note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included under item 8 , financial statements and supplementary data , of this form 10-k . other funding sources , such as secured financing transactions and other margin requirements , for which there are no explicit triggers , could also be adversely affected. .\nQuestion: what was the value of client deposits at the end of 2017?\n"

this non-gaap financial measure of cash flow to focus management and investors on the amount of cash available for debt repayment , dividend distributions , acquisition opportunities , and share repurchases . our cash flow metric is reconciled to the most comparable gaap measure , as follows: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>( dollars in millions

improved performance in working capital resulting from the benefit derived from the pringles acquisition , as well as changes in the level of capital expenditures during the three-year period . investing activities our net cash used in investing activities for 2012 amounted to $ 3245 million , an increase of $ 2658 million compared with 2011 primarily attributable to the $ 2668 acquisition of pringles in capital spending in 2012 included investments in our supply chain infrastructure , and to support capacity requirements in certain markets , including pringles . in addition , we continued the investment in our information technology infrastructure related to the reimplementation and upgrade of our sap platform . net cash used in investing activities of $ 587 million in 2011 increased by $ 122 million compared with 2010 , reflecting capital projects for our reimplementation and upgrade of our sap platform and investments in our supply chain . cash paid for additions to properties as a percentage of net sales has decreased to 3.8% ( 3.8 % ) in 2012 , from 4.5% ( 4.5 % ) in 2011 , which was an increase from 3.8% ( 3.8 % ) in financing activities in february 2013 , we issued $ 250 million of two-year floating-rate u.s . dollar notes , and $ 400 million of ten-year 2.75% ( 2.75 % ) u.s . dollar notes . the proceeds from these notes will be used for general corporate purposes , including , together with cash on hand , repayment of the $ 750 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.25% ( 4.25 % ) u.s . dollar notes due march 2013 . the floating-rate notes bear interest equal to three-month libor plus 23 basis points , subject to quarterly reset . the notes contain customary covenants that limit the ability of kellogg company and its restricted subsidiaries ( as defined ) to incur certain liens or enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions , as well as a change of control provision . our net cash provided by financing activities was $ 1317 for 2012 , compared to net cash used in financing activities of $ 957 and $ 439 for 2011 and 2010 , respectively . the increase in cash provided from financing activities in 2012 compared to 2011 and 2010 , was primarily due to the issuance of debt related to the acquisition of pringles . total debt was $ 7.9 billion at year-end 2012 and $ 6.0 billion at year-end 2011 . in march 2012 , we entered into interest rate swaps on our $ 500 million five-year 1.875% ( 1.875 % ) fixed rate u.s . dollar notes due 2016 , $ 500 million ten-year 4.15% ( 4.15 % ) fixed rate u.s . dollar notes due 2019 and $ 500 million of our $ 750 million seven-year 4.45% ( 4.45 % ) fixed rate u.s . dollar notes due 2016 . the interest rate swaps effectively converted these notes from their fixed rates to floating rate obligations through maturity . in may 2012 , we issued $ 350 million of three-year 1.125% ( 1.125 % ) u.s . dollar notes , $ 400 million of five-year 1.75% ( 1.75 % ) u.s . dollar notes and $ 700 million of ten-year 3.125% ( 3.125 % ) u.s . dollar notes , resulting in aggregate net proceeds after debt discount of $ 1.442 billion . the proceeds of these notes were used for general corporate purposes , including financing a portion of the acquisition of pringles . in may 2012 , we issued cdn . $ 300 million of two-year 2.10% ( 2.10 % ) fixed rate canadian dollar notes , using the proceeds from these notes for general corporate purposes , which included repayment of intercompany debt . this repayment resulted in cash available to be used for a portion of the acquisition of pringles . in december 2012 , we repaid $ 750 million five-year 5.125% ( 5.125 % ) u.s . dollar notes at maturity with commercial paper . in february 2011 , we entered into interest rate swaps on $ 200 million of our $ 750 million seven-year 4.45% ( 4.45 % ) fixed rate u.s . dollar notes due 2016 . the interest rate swaps effectively converted this portion of the notes from a fixed rate to a floating rate obligation through maturity . in april 2011 , we repaid $ 945 million ten-year 6.60% ( 6.60 % ) u.s . dollar notes at maturity with commercial paper . in may 2011 , we issued $ 400 million of seven-year 3.25% ( 3.25 % ) fixed rate u.s . dollar notes , using the proceeds of $ 397 million for general corporate purposes and repayment of commercial paper . during 2011 , we entered into interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $ 400 million , which effectively converted these notes from a fixed rate to a floating rate obligation through maturity . in november 2011 , we issued $ 500 million of five-year 1.875% ( 1.875 % ) fixed rate u . s . dollar notes , using the proceeds of $ 498 million for general corporate purposes and repayment of commercial paper . during 2012 , we entered into interest rate swaps which effectively converted these notes from a fixed rate to a floating rate obligation through maturity . in april 2010 , our board of directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase shares of our common stock amounting to $ 2.5 billion during 2010 through 2012 . this three year authorization replaced previous share buyback programs which had authorized stock repurchases of up to $ 1.1 billion for 2010 and $ 650 million for 2009 . under this program , we repurchased approximately 1 million , 15 million and 21 million shares of common stock for $ 63 million , $ 793 million and $ 1.1 billion during 2012 , 2011 and 2010 , respectively . in december 2012 , our board of directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase shares of our common stock amounting to $ 300 million during 2013 . we paid quarterly dividends to shareholders totaling $ 1.74 per share in 2012 , $ 1.67 per share in 2011 and $ 1.56 per share in 2010 . total cash paid for dividends increased by 3.0% ( 3.0 % ) in 2012 and 3.4% ( 3.4 % ) in 2011 . in march 2011 , we entered into an unsecured four- year credit agreement which allows us to borrow , on a revolving credit basis , up to $ 2.0 billion . our long-term debt agreements contain customary covenants that limit kellogg company and some of its subsidiaries from incurring certain liens or from entering into certain sale and lease-back transactions . some agreements also contain change in control provisions . however , they do not contain acceleration of maturity clauses that are dependent on credit ratings . a change in our credit ratings could limit our access to the u.s . short-term debt market and/or increase the cost of refinancing long-term debt in the future . however , even under these circumstances , we would continue to have access to our four-year credit agreement , which expires in march 2015 . this source of liquidity is unused and available on an unsecured basis , although we do not currently plan to use it . capital and credit markets , including commercial paper markets , continued to experience instability and disruption as the u.s . and global economies underwent a period of extreme uncertainty . throughout this period of uncertainty , we continued to have access to the u.s. , european , and canadian commercial paper markets . our commercial paper and term debt credit ratings were not affected by the changes in the credit environment . we monitor the financial strength of our third-party financial institutions , including those that hold our cash and cash equivalents as well as those who serve as counterparties to our credit facilities , our derivative financial instruments , and other arrangements . we are in compliance with all covenants as of december 29 , 2012 . we continue to believe that we will be able to meet our interest and principal repayment obligations and maintain our debt covenants for the foreseeable future , while still meeting our operational needs , including the pursuit of selected bolt-on acquisitions . this will be accomplished through our strong cash flow , our short- term borrowings , and our maintenance of credit facilities on a global basis. .\nQuestion: what percentage of net cash from operations is retained as cash

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\neastman notes to the audited consolidated financial statements stock option awards option awards are granted to non-employee directors on an annual basis and to employees who meet certain eligibility requirements . a single annual option grant is usually awarded to eligible employees in the fourth quarter of each year , if and when granted by the compensation and management development committee of the board of directors , and occasional individual grants are awarded to eligible employees throughout the year . option awards have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the company's stock on the date of grant . the term of options is ten years with vesting periods that vary up to three years . vesting usually occurs ratably or at the end of the vesting period . sfas no . 123 ( r ) requires that stock option awards be valued at fair value determined by market price , if actively traded in a public market or , if not , calculated using an option pricing financial model . the fair value of the company's options cannot be determined by market value as they are not traded in an open market . accordingly , a financial pricing model is utilized to determine fair value . the company utilizes the black scholes merton ( \"bsm\" ) model which relies on certain assumptions to estimate an option's fair value . the weighted average assumptions used in the determination of fair value for stock options awarded in 2006 , 2005 and 2004 are provided in the table below: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>assumptions</td><td>2006</td><td>2005</td><td>2004</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>expected volatility rate</td><td>21.40% ( 21.40 % )</td><td>22.90% ( 22.90 % )</td><td>28.00% ( 28.00 % )</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>expected dividend yield</td><td>3.24% ( 3.24 % )</td><td>3.29% ( 3.29 % )</td><td>3.80% ( 3.80 % )</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>average risk-free interest rate</td><td>4.62% ( 4.62 % )</td><td>4.48% ( 4.48 % )</td><td>3.46% ( 3.46 % )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>expected forfeiture rate</td><td>0.75% ( 0.75 % )</td><td>actual</td><td>actual</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>expected term years</td><td>4.40</td><td>5.00</td><td>6.00</td></tr></table> prior to adoption of sfas no . 123 ( r ) , the company calculated the expected term of stock options of six years . effective with the fourth quarter 2005 annual option award , the company analyzed historical annual grant transactions over a ten year period comprising exercises , post-vesting cancellations and expirations to determine the expected term . the company expects to execute this analysis each year preceding the annual option grant to ensure that all assumptions based upon internal data reflect the most reasonable expectations for fair value determination . the weighted average expected term of 4.4 years for 2006 reflects the impact of this annual analysis and the weighting of option swap and reload grants which may have much shorter expected terms than new option grants . the volatility rate of grants is derived from historical company common stock volatility over the same time period as the expected term . the company uses a weekly high closing stock price based upon daily closing prices in the week . the volatility rate is derived by mathematical formula utilizing the weekly high closing price data . for the periods presented above , the expected dividend yield is derived by mathematical formula which uses the expected company annual dividend amount over the expected term divided by the fair market value of the company's common stock at the grant date . the average risk-free interest rate is derived from united states department of treasury published interest rates of daily yield curves for the same time period as the expected term . prior to adoption of sfas no . 123 ( r ) , the company did not estimate forfeitures and recognized them as they occurred for proforma disclosure of share-based compensation expense . with adoption of sfas no . 123 ( r ) , estimated forfeitures must be considered in recording share-based compensation expense . estimated forfeiture rates vary with each type of award affected by several factors , one of which is the varying composition and characteristics of the award participants . estimated forfeitures for the company's share-based awards historically range from 0.75 percent to 10.0 percent with the estimated forfeitures for options at 0.75 percent. .\nQuestion: what was the expected dividend yield in 2006?\nAnswer: 3.24\nQuestion: what was the expected yield in 2005?\nAnswer: 3.29\nQuestion: what is the net difference?\n"

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\n2022 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. . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>new sites ( acquired or constructed )</td><td>2010</td><td>2009</td><td>2008</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>domestic</td><td>947</td><td>528</td><td>160</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>international ( 1 )</td><td>6865</td><td>3022</td><td>801</td></tr></table> ( 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. .\nQuestion: in 2010, what was the total of new sites acquired or constructed?\nAnswer: 7812.0\nQuestion: and what portion of these sites were located in the us?\n"

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nin a new business model such as the retail segment is inherently risky , particularly in light of the significant investment involved , the current economic climate , and the fixed nature of a substantial portion of the retail segment's operating expenses . results for this segment are dependent upon a number of risks and uncertainties , some of which are discussed below under the heading \"factors that may affect future results and financial condition.\" backlog in the company's experience , the actual amount of product backlog at any particular time is not a meaningful indication of its future business prospects . in particular , backlog often increases in anticipation of or immediately following new product introductions because of over- ordering by dealers anticipating shortages . backlog often is reduced once dealers and customers believe they can obtain sufficient supply . because of the foregoing , backlog cannot be considered a reliable indicator of the company's ability to achieve any particular level of revenue or financial performance . further information regarding the company's backlog may be found below under the heading \"factors that may affect future results and financial condition.\" gross margin gross margin for the three fiscal years ended september 28 , 2002 are as follows ( in millions , except gross margin percentages ) : gross margin increased to 28% ( 28 % ) of net sales in 2002 from 23% ( 23 % ) in 2001 . as discussed below , gross margin in 2001 was unusually low resulting from negative gross margin of 2% ( 2 % ) experienced in the first quarter of 2001 . as a percentage of net sales , the company's quarterly gross margins declined during fiscal 2002 from 31% ( 31 % ) in the first quarter down to 26% ( 26 % ) in the fourth quarter . this decline resulted from several factors including a rise in component costs as the year progressed and aggressive pricing by the company across its products lines instituted as a result of continued pricing pressures in the personal computer industry . the company anticipates that its gross margin and the gross margin of the overall personal computer industry will remain under pressure throughout fiscal 2003 in light of weak economic conditions , flat demand for personal computers in general , and the resulting pressure on prices . the foregoing statements regarding anticipated gross margin in 2003 and the general demand for personal computers during 2003 are forward- looking . gross margin could differ from anticipated levels because of several factors , including certain of those set forth below in the subsection entitled \"factors that may affect future results and financial condition.\" there can be no assurance that current gross margins will be maintained , targeted gross margin levels will be achieved , or current margins on existing individual products will be maintained . in general , gross margins and margins on individual products will remain under significant downward pressure due to a variety of factors , including continued industry wide global pricing pressures , increased competition , compressed product life cycles , potential increases in the cost and availability of raw material and outside manufacturing services , and potential changes to the company's product mix , including higher unit sales of consumer products with lower average selling prices and lower gross margins . in response to these downward pressures , the company expects it will continue to take pricing actions with respect to its products . gross margins could also be affected by the company's ability to effectively manage quality problems and warranty costs and to stimulate demand for certain of its products . the company's operating strategy and pricing take into account anticipated changes in foreign currency exchange rates over time ; however , the company's results of operations can be significantly affected in the short-term by fluctuations in exchange rates . the company orders components for its products and builds inventory in advance of product shipments . because the company's markets are volatile and subject to rapid technology and price changes , there is a risk the company will forecast incorrectly and produce or order from third parties excess or insufficient inventories of particular products or components . the company's operating results and financial condition have been in the past and may in the future be materially adversely affected by the company's ability to manage its inventory levels and outstanding purchase commitments and to respond to short-term shifts in customer demand patterns . gross margin declined to 23% ( 23 % ) of net sales in 2001 from 27% ( 27 % ) in 2000 . this decline resulted primarily from gross margin of negative 2% ( 2 % ) experienced during the first quarter of 2001 compared to 26% ( 26 % ) gross margin for the same quarter in 2000 . in addition to lower than normal net . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2002</td><td>2001</td><td>2000</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>net sales</td><td>$ 5742</td><td>$ 5363</td><td>$ 7983</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>cost of sales</td><td>4139</td><td>4128</td><td>5817</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>gross margin</td><td>$ 1603</td><td>$ 1235</td><td>$ 2166</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>gross margin percentage</td><td>28% ( 28 % )</td><td>23% ( 23 % )</td><td>27% ( 27 % )</td></tr></table> .\nQuestion: what was the total of net sales in 2001?\nAnswer: 5363.0\nQuestion: and what was that in 2000?\nAnswer: 7983.0\nQuestion: what was, then, the change in the total of net sales over the year?\n"

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. .\nQuestion: what was the total of wholesale lending-related commitments in 2010, in billions?\nAnswer: 346.1\nQuestion: and what was it in 2009, also in billions?\nAnswer: 347.2\nQuestion: what was, then, the change in the total of wholesale lending-related commitments over the year?\nAnswer: -1.1\nQuestion: and how much does this change represent in relation to the 2009 total?\n"

( see note 16 to the consolidated financial statements ) . excluding this portion of cash held outside the u.s . for acquisition-related purposes , approximately 50%-60% ( 50%-60 % ) of the remaining cash and cash equivalents are held by foreign subsidiaries throughout the year . the amount of cash held by our u.s . and foreign subsidiaries fluctuates throughout the year due to a variety of factors , including the timing of cash receipts and disbursements in the normal course of business . cash provided by operating activities in the united states continues to be our primary source of funds to finance domestic operating needs , capital expenditures , share repurchases and dividend payments to shareowners . to the extent that such amounts represent previously untaxed earnings , the cash held by foreign subsidiaries would be subject to tax if such amounts were repatriated in the form of dividends ; however , not all international cash balances would have to be repatriated in the form of a dividend if returned to the u.s . when amounts earned by foreign subsidiaries are expected to be indefinitely reinvested , no accrual for taxes is provided. .\nQuestion: what was the net income in 2012?\nAnswer: 807.0\nQuestion: and what was it in the previous year?\nAnswer: 3804.0\nQuestion: by how much, then, did it change throughout the period?\nAnswer: -2997.0\nQuestion: and what is this change as a percentage of the 2011 net income?\n"

actions of various central banks ; changes in u.s . and non-u.s . interest rates ; changes in the various yield curves around the world ; revised or proposed regulatory capital or liquidity standards , or interpretations of those standards ; the amount of discount accretion generated by the former conduit securities that remain in our investment securities portfolio ; and the yields earned on securities purchased compared to the yields earned on securities sold or matured . based on market conditions and other factors , we continue to reinvest the majority of the proceeds from pay-downs and maturities of investment securities in highly-rated securities , such as u.s . treasury and agency securities , municipal securities , federal agency mortgage-backed securities and u.s . and non-u.s . mortgage- and asset-backed securities . the pace at which we continue to reinvest and the types of investment securities purchased will depend on the impact of market conditions and other factors over time . we expect these factors and the levels of global interest rates to influence what effect our reinvestment program will have on future levels of our net interest revenue and net interest margin. .\nQuestion: what was the value of average short term advances in 2014?\n"

to large cable and telecommunications operators in north america as a result of macroeconomic conditions , and ( ii ) a lower asp due to an unfavorable shift in product mix . the segment shipped 14.7 million digital entertainment devices in 2009 , compared to 18.0 million shipped in 2008 . on a geographic basis , the 21% ( 21 % ) decrease in net sales was driven by lower net sales in all regions . the decrease in net sales in north america was primarily due to : ( i ) lower net sales in the home business , and ( ii ) lower net sales of cdma and iden infrastructure equipment , partially offset by higher net sales of wimax products . the decrease in net sales in emea was primarily due to lower net sales of gsm infrastructure equipment , partially offset by higher net sales of wimax products

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nitem 7 . management 2019s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations results of operations 2013 highmount 2013 ( continued ) highmount 2019s revenues , profitability and future growth depend substantially on natural gas and ngl prices and highmount 2019s ability to increase its natural gas and ngl production . in recent years , there has been significant price volatility in natural gas and ngl prices due to a variety of factors highmount cannot control or predict . these factors , which include weather conditions , political and economic events , and competition from other energy sources , impact supply and demand for natural gas , which determines the pricing . in recent months , natural gas prices decreased significantly due largely to increased onshore natural gas production , plentiful levels of working gas in storage and reduced commercial demand . the increase in the onshore natural gas production was due largely to increased production from 201cunconventional 201d sources of natural gas such as shale gas , coalbed methane , tight sandstones and methane hydrates , made possible in recent years by modern technology in creating extensive artificial fractures around well bores and advances in horizontal drilling technology . other key factors contributing to the softness of natural gas prices likely included a lower level of industrial demand for natural gas , as a result of the ongoing economic downturn , and relatively low crude oil prices . due to industry conditions , in february of 2009 highmount elected to terminate contracts for five drilling rigs at its permian basin property in the sonora , texas area . the estimated fee payable to the rig contractor for exercising this early termination right will be approximately $ 23 million . in light of these developments , highmount will reduce 2009 production volumes through decreased drilling activity . in addition , the price highmount realizes for its gas production is affected by highmount 2019s hedging activities as well as locational differences in market prices . highmount 2019s decision to increase its natural gas production is dependent upon highmount 2019s ability to realize attractive returns on its capital investment program . returns are affected by commodity prices , capital and operating costs . highmount 2019s operating income , which represents revenues less operating expenses , is primarily affected by revenue factors , but is also a function of varying levels of production expenses , production and ad valorem taxes , as well as depreciation , depletion and amortization ( 201cdd&a 201d ) expenses . highmount 2019s production expenses represent all costs incurred to operate and maintain wells and related equipment and facilities . the principal components of highmount 2019s production expenses are , among other things , direct and indirect costs of labor and benefits , repairs and maintenance , materials , supplies and fuel . in general , during 2008 highmount 2019s labor costs increased primarily due to higher salary levels and continued upward pressure on salaries and wages as a result of the increased competition for skilled workers . in response to these market conditions , in 2008 highmount implemented retention programs , including increases in compensation . production expenses during 2008 were also affected by increases in the cost of fuel , materials and supplies . the higher cost environment discussed above continued during all of 2008 . during the fourth quarter of 2008 the price of natural gas declined significantly while operating expenses remained high . this environment of low commodity prices and high operating expenses continued until december of 2008 when highmount began to see evidence of decreasing operating expenses and drilling costs . highmount 2019s production and ad valorem taxes increase primarily when prices of natural gas and ngls increase , but they are also affected by changes in production , as well as appreciated property values . highmount calculates depletion using the units-of-production method , which depletes the capitalized costs and future development costs associated with evaluated properties based on the ratio of production volumes for the current period to total remaining reserve volumes for the evaluated properties . highmount 2019s depletion expense is affected by its capital spending program and projected future development costs , as well as reserve changes resulting from drilling programs , well performance , and revisions due to changing commodity prices . presented below are production and sales statistics related to highmount 2019s operations: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>year ended december 31</td><td>2008</td><td>2007 ( a )</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>gas production ( bcf

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

related expenses of $ 28.0 and a decrease in office and general expenses of $ 16.9 . the decrease in salaries and related expenses was primarily due to lower discretionary bonuses and incentive expense as well as a decrease in base salaries , benefits and tax . the decrease in office and general expenses was primarily due to decreases in adjustments to contingent acquisition obligations , as compared to the prior year . operating income increased during 2016 when compared to 2015 due to an increase in revenue of $ 58.8 , as discussed above , and a decrease in office and general expenses of $ 3.7 , partially offset by an increase in salaries and related expenses of $ 38.8 . the increase in salaries and related expenses was attributable to an increase in base salaries , benefits and tax primarily due to increases in our workforce to support business growth over the last twelve months . the decrease in office and general expenses was primarily due to lower production expenses

on estimated discounted future cash flows . our cash flow assumptions consider historical and forecasted revenue , operating costs and other relevant factors . we completed our annual goodwill impairment test in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 . we determined , after performing a qualitative review of each reporting segment , that it is more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting segments substantially exceeds the respective carrying amounts . accordingly , there was no indication of impairment and the quantitative goodwill impairment test was not performed . we did not identify any events or changes in circumstances since the performance of our annual goodwill impairment test that would require us to perform another goodwill impairment test during the fiscal year . we amortize intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives and review them for impairment whenever an impairment indicator exists . we continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of our long-lived assets , including our intangible assets may not be recoverable . when such events or changes in circumstances occur , we assess recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows . if the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets , we recognize an impairment loss based on any excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets . we did not recognize any intangible asset impairment charges in fiscal 2018 , 2017 or 2016 . during fiscal 2018 , our intangible assets were amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from 1 to 14 years . amortization is based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset will be consumed or on a straight-line basis when the consumption pattern is not apparent . the weighted average useful lives of our intangible assets were as follows : weighted average useful life ( years ) . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>weighted averageuseful life ( years )</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>purchased technology</td><td>6</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>customer contracts and relationships</td><td>9</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>trademarks</td><td>9</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>acquired rights to use technology</td><td>10</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>backlog</td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>other intangibles</td><td>4</td></tr></table> income taxes we use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes . under this method , income tax expense is recognized for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year . in addition , deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities , and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards . we record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount for which realization is more likely than not. .\nQuestion: what was the weighted average useful life for purchased technology, in years?\nAnswer: 6.0\nQuestion: and what was it for customer contracts and relationships, also in years?\nAnswer: 9.0\nQuestion: what was, then, the total of years in weighted average useful life for both of those intangible assets?\nAnswer: 15.0\nQuestion: and what is the average between them?\n"

have been merged into the 2009 plan . vested and unvested stock options and unvested restricted stock and rsus previously granted under the 2006 plan , the teamshare plan and another prior plan , the 2001 stock incentive plan , remained outstanding as of december 31 , 2013 . we have reserved the maximum number of shares of common stock available for award under the terms of each of these plans . we have registered 57.9 million shares of common stock under these plans . the 2009 plan provides for the grant of nonqualified stock options and incentive stock options , long-term performance awards in the form of performance shares or units , restricted stock , rsus and stock appreciation rights . the compensation and management development committee of the board of directors determines the grant date for annual grants under our equity compensation plans . the date for annual grants under the 2009 plan to our executive officers is expected to occur in the first quarter of each year following the earnings announcements for the previous quarter and full year . the stock plan for non-employee directors provides for awards of stock options , restricted stock and rsus to non-employee directors . it has been our practice to issue shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options from previously unissued shares , except in limited circumstances where they are issued from treasury stock . the total number of awards which may be granted in a given year and/or over the life of the plan under each of our equity compensation plans is limited . at december 31 , 2013 , an aggregate of 10.4 million shares were available for future grants and awards under these plans . stock options granted to date under our plans generally vest over four years and generally have a maximum contractual life of 10 years . as established under our equity compensation plans , vesting may accelerate upon retirement after the first anniversary date of the award if certain criteria are met . we recognize expense related to stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period , less awards expected to be forfeited using estimated forfeiture rates . due to the accelerated retirement provisions , the requisite service period of our stock options range from one to four years . stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock on the date of grant , except in limited circumstances where local law may dictate otherwise. .\nQuestion: what was the change in the share-based compensation expense from 2011 to

relevant taxing authorities for various tax years . the company regularly assesses the potential outcome of these examinations in each of the taxing jurisdictions when determining the adequacy of the amount of unrecognized tax benefit recorded . while it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position , we believe we have appropriately accrued for our uncertain tax benefits . however , audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements and future events that would impact our previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits and the range of anticipated increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits are subject to significant uncertainty . it is possible that the ultimate outcome of current or future examinations may exceed our provision for current unrecognized tax benefits in amounts that could be material , but cannot be estimated as of december 31 , 2018 . our effective tax rate and net income in any given future period could therefore be materially impacted . 22 . discontinued operations due to a portfolio evaluation in the first half of 2016 , management decided to pursue a strategic shift of its distribution companies in brazil , sul and eletropaulo , to reduce the company's exposure to the brazilian distribution market . the disposals of sul and eletropaulo were completed in october 2016 and june 2018 , respectively . eletropaulo 2014 in november 2017 , eletropaulo converted its preferred shares into ordinary shares and transitioned the listing of those shares to the novo mercado , which is a listing segment of the brazilian stock exchange with the highest standards of corporate governance . upon conversion of the preferred shares into ordinary shares , aes no longer controlled eletropaulo , but maintained significant influence over the business . as a result , the company deconsolidated eletropaulo . after deconsolidation , the company's 17% ( 17 % ) ownership interest was reflected as an equity method investment . the company recorded an after-tax loss on deconsolidation of $ 611 million , which primarily consisted of $ 455 million related to cumulative translation losses and $ 243 million related to pension losses reclassified from aocl . in december 2017 , all the remaining criteria were met for eletropaulo to qualify as a discontinued operation . therefore , its results of operations and financial position were reported as such in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented . in june 2018 , the company completed the sale of its entire 17% ( 17 % ) ownership interest in eletropaulo through a bidding process hosted by the brazilian securities regulator , cvm . gross proceeds of $ 340 million were received at our subsidiary in brazil , subject to the payment of taxes . upon disposal of eletropaulo , the company recorded a pre-tax gain on sale of $ 243 million ( after-tax $ 199 million ) . excluding the gain on sale , eletropaulo's pre-tax loss attributable to aes was immaterial for the year ended december 31 , 2018 . eletropaulo's pre-tax loss attributable to aes , including the loss on deconsolidation , for the years ended december 31 , 2017 and 2016 was $ 633 million and $ 192 million , respectively . prior to its classification as discontinued operations , eletropaulo was reported in the south america sbu reportable segment . sul 2014 the company executed an agreement for the sale of sul , a wholly-owned subsidiary , in june 2016 . the results of operations and financial position of sul are reported as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented . upon meeting the held-for-sale criteria , the company recognized an after-tax loss of $ 382 million comprised of a pre-tax impairment charge of $ 783 million , offset by a tax benefit of $ 266 million related to the impairment of the sul long lived assets and a tax benefit of $ 135 million for deferred taxes related to the investment in sul . prior to the impairment charge , the carrying value of the sul asset group of $ 1.6 billion was greater than its approximate fair value less costs to sell . however , the impairment charge was limited to the carrying value of the long lived assets of the sul disposal group. .\nQuestion: what was the balance of unrecognized tax benefits for

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nthe company is currently under audit by the internal revenue service and other major taxing jurisdictions around the world . it is thus reasonably possible that significant changes in the gross balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next 12 months , but the company does not expect such audits to result in amounts that would cause a significant change to its effective tax rate , other than the following items . the company is currently at irs appeals for the years 1999 20132002 . one of the issues relates to the timing of the inclusion of interchange fees received by the company relating to credit card purchases by its cardholders . it is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months the company can either reach agreement on this issue at appeals or decide to litigate the issue . this issue is presently being litigated by another company in a united states tax court case . the gross uncertain tax position for this item at december 31 , 2008 is $ 542 million . since this is a temporary difference , the only effect to the company 2019s effective tax rate would be due to net interest and state tax rate differentials . if the reserve were to be released , the tax benefit could be as much as $ 168 million . in addition , the company expects to conclude the irs audit of its u.s . federal consolidated income tax returns for the years 2003 20132005 within the next 12 months . the gross uncertain tax position at december 31 , 2008 for the items expected to be resolved is approximately $ 350 million plus gross interest of $ 70 million . the potential net tax benefit to continuing operations could be approximately $ 325 million . the following are the major tax

discontinued operations ) . as a u.s . corporation , citigroup and its u.s . subsidiaries are subject to u.s . taxation currently on all foreign pretax earnings earned by a foreign branch . pretax earnings of a foreign subsidiary or affiliate are subject to u.s . taxation when effectively repatriated . the company provides income taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-u.s . subsidiaries except to the extent that such earnings are indefinitely invested outside the united states . at december 31 , 2008 , $ 22.8 billion of accumulated undistributed earnings of non-u.s . subsidiaries were indefinitely invested . at the existing u.s . federal income tax rate , additional taxes ( net of u.s . foreign tax credits ) of $ 6.1 billion would have to be provided if such earnings were remitted currently . the current year 2019s effect on the income tax expense from continuing operations is included in the foreign income tax rate differential line in the reconciliation of the federal statutory rate to the company 2019s effective income tax rate on the previous page . income taxes are not provided for on the company 2019s savings bank base year bad debt reserves that arose before 1988 because under current u.s . tax rules such taxes will become payable only to the extent such amounts are distributed in excess of limits prescribed by federal law . at december 31 , 2008 , the amount of the base year reserves totaled approximately $ 358 million ( subject to a tax of $ 125 million ) . the company has no valuation allowance on deferred tax assets at december 31 , 2008 and december 31 , 2007 . at december 31 , 2008 , the company had a u.s . foreign tax-credit carryforward of $ 10.5 billion , $ 0.4 billion whose expiry date is 2016 , $ 5.3 billion whose expiry date is 2017 and $ 4.8 billion whose expiry date is 2018 . the company has a u.s federal consolidated net operating loss ( nol ) carryforward of approximately $ 13 billion whose expiration date is 2028 . the company also has a general business credit carryforward of $ 0.6 billion whose expiration dates are 2027-2028 . the company has state and local net operating loss carryforwards of $ 16.2 billion and $ 4.9 billion in new york state and new york city , respectively . this consists of $ 2.4 billion and $ 1.2 billion , whose expiration date is 2027 and $ 13.8 billion and $ 3.7 billion whose expiration date is 2028 and for which the company has recorded a deferred-tax asset of $ 1.2 billion , along with less significant net operating losses in various other states for which the company has recorded a deferred-tax asset of $ 399 million and which expire between 2012 and 2028 . in addition , the company has recorded deferred-tax assets in apb 23 subsidiaries for foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $ 130 million ( which expires in 2018 ) and $ 101 million ( with no expiration ) . although realization is not assured , the company believes that the realization of the recognized net deferred tax asset of $ 44.5 billion is more likely than not based on expectations as to future taxable income in the jurisdictions in which it operates and available tax planning strategies , as defined in sfas 109 , that could be implemented if necessary to prevent a carryforward from expiring . the company 2019s net deferred tax asset ( dta ) of $ 44.5 billion consists of approximately $ 36.5 billion of net u.s . federal dtas , $ 4 billion of net state dtas and $ 4 billion of net foreign dtas . included in the net federal dta of $ 36.5 billion are deferred tax liabilities of $ 4 billion that will reverse in the relevant carryforward period and may be used to support the dta . the major components of the u.s . federal dta are $ 10.5 billion in foreign tax-credit carryforwards , $ 4.6 billion in a net-operating-loss carryforward , $ 0.6 billion in a general-business-credit carryforward , $ 19.9 billion in net deductions that have not yet been taken on a tax return , and $ 0.9 billion in compensation deductions , which reduced additional paid-in capital in january 2009 and for which sfas 123 ( r ) did not permit any adjustment to such dta at december 31 , 2008 because the related stock compensation was not yet deductible to the company . in general , citigroup would need to generate approximately $ 85 billion of taxable income during the respective carryforward periods to fully realize its federal , state and local dtas. .\nQuestion: what portion of foreign pretax earnings in 2008 were from discontinued operations?\nAnswer: 0.49515\nQuestion: what is the gross interest in 2008?\nAnswer: 70.0\nQuestion: what about the gross uncertain tax position?\n"

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nvaluation techniques 2013 cash equivalents are mostly comprised of short-term money-market instruments and are valued at cost , which approximates fair value . u.s . equity securities and international equity securities categorized as level 1 are traded on active national and international exchanges and are valued at their closing prices on the last trading day of the year . for u.s . equity securities and international equity securities not traded on an active exchange , or if the closing price is not available , the trustee obtains indicative quotes from a pricing vendor , broker or investment manager . these securities are categorized as level 2 if the custodian obtains corroborated quotes from a pricing vendor or categorized as level 3 if the custodian obtains uncorroborated quotes from a broker or investment manager . commingled equity funds categorized as level 1 are traded on active national and international exchanges and are valued at their closing prices on the last trading day of the year . for commingled equity funds not traded on an active exchange , or if the closing price is not available , the trustee obtains indicative quotes from a pricing vendor , broker or investment manager . these securities are categorized as level 2 if the custodian obtains corroborated quotes from a pricing vendor . fixed income investments categorized as level 2 are valued by the trustee using pricing models that use verifiable observable market data ( e.g. , interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals and credit spreads ) , bids provided by brokers or dealers or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics . fixed income investments are categorized as level 3 when valuations using observable inputs are unavailable . the trustee typically obtains pricing based on indicative quotes or bid evaluations from vendors , brokers or the investment manager . in addition , certain other fixed income investments categorized as level 3 are valued using a discounted cash flow approach . significant inputs include projected annuity payments and the discount rate applied to those payments . certain commingled equity funds , consisting of equity mutual funds , are valued using the nav . the nav valuations are based on the underlying investments and typically redeemable within 90 days . private equity funds consist of partnership and co-investment funds . the nav is based on valuation models of the underlying securities , which includes unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated using verifiable observable market data . these funds typically have redemption periods between eight and 12 years . real estate funds consist of partnerships , most of which are closed-end funds , for which the nav is based on valuation models and periodic appraisals . these funds typically have redemption periods between eight and 10 years . hedge funds consist of direct hedge funds for which the nav is generally based on the valuation of the underlying investments . redemptions in hedge funds are based on the specific terms of each fund , and generally range from a minimum of one month to several months . contributions and expected benefit payments the funding of our qualified defined benefit pension plans is determined in accordance with erisa , as amended by the ppa , and in a manner consistent with cas and internal revenue code rules . we made contributions of $ 5.0 billion to our qualified defined benefit pension plans in 2018 , including required and discretionary contributions . as a result of these contributions , we do not expect to make contributions to our qualified defined benefit pension plans in 2019
