The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nlong-term product offerings include alpha-seeking active and index strategies . our alpha-seeking active strategies seek to earn attractive returns in excess of a market benchmark or performance hurdle while maintaining an appropriate risk profile , and leverage fundamental research and quantitative models to drive portfolio construction . in contrast , index strategies seek to closely track the returns of a corresponding index , generally by investing in substantially the same underlying securities within the index or in a subset of those securities selected to approximate a similar risk and return profile of the index . index strategies include both our non-etf index products and ishares etfs . although many clients use both alpha-seeking active and index strategies , the application of these strategies may differ . for example , clients may use index products to gain exposure to a market or asset class , or may use a combination of index strategies to target active returns . in addition , institutional non-etf index assignments tend to be very large ( multi-billion dollars ) and typically reflect low fee rates . net flows in institutional index products generally have a small impact on blackrock 2019s revenues and earnings . equity year-end 2017 equity aum totaled $ 3.372 trillion , reflecting net inflows of $ 130.1 billion . net inflows included $ 174.4 billion into ishares etfs , driven by net inflows into core funds and broad developed and emerging market equities , partially offset by non-etf index and active net outflows of $ 25.7 billion and $ 18.5 billion , respectively . blackrock 2019s effective fee rates fluctuate due to changes in aum mix . approximately half of blackrock 2019s equity aum is tied to international markets , including emerging markets , which tend to have higher fee rates than u.s . equity strategies . accordingly , fluctuations in international equity markets , which may not consistently move in tandem with u.s . markets , have a greater impact on blackrock 2019s equity revenues and effective fee rate . fixed income fixed income aum ended 2017 at $ 1.855 trillion , reflecting net inflows of $ 178.8 billion . in 2017 , active net inflows of $ 21.5 billion were diversified across fixed income offerings , and included strong inflows into municipal , unconstrained and total return bond funds . ishares etfs net inflows of $ 67.5 billion were led by flows into core , corporate and treasury bond funds . non-etf index net inflows of $ 89.8 billion were driven by demand for liability-driven investment solutions . multi-asset blackrock 2019s multi-asset team manages a variety of balanced funds and bespoke mandates for a diversified client base that leverages our broad investment expertise in global equities , bonds , currencies and commodities , and our extensive risk management capabilities . investment solutions might include a combination of long-only portfolios and alternative investments as well as tactical asset allocation overlays . component changes in multi-asset aum for 2017 are presented below .

therefore , the long-term portion of the net tax liability of $ 208 million is excluded from the preceding table . refer to note 8 for further details . as discussed in note 11 , the company does not have a required minimum cash pension contribution obligation for its u.s . plans in 2016 and company contributions to its u.s . and international pension plans are expected to be largely discretionary in future years ; therefore , amounts related to these plans are not included in the preceding table . financial instruments the company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts , options and swaps to hedge against the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash flows denominated in foreign currencies and certain intercompany financing transactions . the company manages interest rate risks using a mix of fixed and floating rate debt . to help manage borrowing costs , the company may enter into interest rate swaps . under these arrangements , the company agrees to exchange , at specified intervals , the difference between fixed and floating interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount . the company manages commodity price risks through negotiated supply contracts , price protection agreements and forward contracts. .\nQuestion: as of december 31, 2015, what percentage did the total interest on long-term debt represent in relation to the total contractual cash obligations?\n"

a combined ratio above 100.0 demonstrates underwriting losses . the combined ratio has decreased from 2003 to 2004 primarily because of improvement in the expense ratio . the combined ratio in 2005 could be significantly higher or lower than the 2004 combined ratio depending on the level of catastrophe losses , but will also be impacted by changes in pricing and an expected moderation in favorable loss cost trends . catastrophe ratio : the catastrophe ratio ( a component of the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio ) represents the ratio of catastrophe losses ( net of reinsurance ) to earned premiums . a catastrophe is an event that causes $ 25 or more in industry insured property losses and affects a significant number of property and casualty policyholders and insurers . by their nature , catastrophe losses vary dramatically from year to year . based on the mix and geographic dispersion of premium written and estimates derived from various catastrophe loss models , the company 2019s expected catastrophe ratio over the long-term is 3.0 points . before considering the reduction in ongoing operation 2019s catastrophe reserves related to september 11 of $ 298 in 2004 , the catastrophe ratio in 2004 was 5.3 points . see 201crisk management strategy 201d below for a discussion of the company 2019s property catastrophe risk management program that serves to mitigate the company 2019s net exposure to catastrophe losses . combined ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development : the combined ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development represents the combined ratio for the current accident year , excluding the impact of catastrophes . the company believes this ratio is an important measure of the trend in profitability since it removes the impact of volatile and unpredictable catastrophe losses and prior accident year reserve development . before considering catastrophes , the combined ratio related to current accident year business has improved from 2002 to 2004 principally due to earned pricing increases and favorable claim frequency . other operations underwriting results : the other operations segment is responsible for managing operations of the hartford that have discontinued writing new or renewal business as well as managing the claims related to asbestos and environmental exposures . as such , neither earned premiums nor underwriting ratios are meaningful financial measures . instead , management believes that underwriting result is a more meaningful measure . the net underwriting loss for 2002 through 2004 is primarily due to prior accident year loss development , including $ 2.6 billion of net asbestos reserve strengthening in 2003 . reserve estimates within other operations , including estimates for asbestos and environmental claims , are inherently uncertain . refer to the other operations segment md&a for further discussion of other operation's underwriting results . total property & casualty investment earnings . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>-</td><td>2004</td><td>2003</td><td>2002</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>investment yield after-tax</td><td>4.1% ( 4.1 % )</td><td>4.2% ( 4.2 % )</td><td>4.5% ( 4.5 % )</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>net realized capital gains ( losses ) after-tax</td><td>$ 87</td><td>$ 165</td><td>$ -44 ( 44 )</td></tr></table> the investment return , or yield , on property & casualty 2019s invested assets is an important element of the company 2019s earnings since insurance products are priced with the assumption that premiums received can be invested for a period of time before loss and loss adjustment expenses are paid . for longer tail lines , such as workers 2019 compensation and general liability , claims are paid over several years and , therefore , the premiums received for these lines of business can generate significant investment income . him determines the appropriate allocation of investments by asset class and measures the investment yield performance for each asset class against market indices or other benchmarks . due to the emphasis on preservation of capital and the need to maintain sufficient liquidity to satisfy claim obligations , the vast majority of property and casualty 2019s invested assets have been held in fixed maturities , including , among other asset classes , corporate bonds , municipal bonds , government debt , short-term debt , mortgage- .\nQuestion: what is the net realized capital gain after tax in 2004?\nAnswer: 87.0\nQuestion: what about in 2003?\nAnswer: 165.0\nQuestion: what is the total gains for 2003 and 2004?\nAnswer: 252.0\nQuestion: what about if losses from 2002 are added?\n"

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nliquidity monitoring and measurement stress testing liquidity stress testing is performed for each of citi 2019s major entities , operating subsidiaries and/or countries . stress testing and scenario analyses are intended to quantify the potential impact of a liquidity event on the balance sheet and liquidity position , and to identify viable funding alternatives that can be utilized . these scenarios include assumptions about significant changes in key funding sources , market triggers ( such as credit ratings ) , potential uses of funding and political and economic conditions in certain countries . these conditions include expected and stressed market conditions as well as company- specific events . liquidity stress tests are conducted to ascertain potential mismatches between liquidity sources and uses over a variety of time horizons ( overnight , one week , two weeks , one month , three months , one year ) and over a variety of stressed conditions . liquidity limits are set accordingly . to monitor the liquidity of an entity , these stress tests and potential mismatches are calculated with varying frequencies , with several tests performed daily . given the range of potential stresses , citi maintains a series of contingency funding plans on a consolidated basis and for individual entities . these plans specify a wide range of readily available actions for a variety of adverse market conditions or idiosyncratic stresses . short-term liquidity measurement : liquidity coverage ratio ( lcr ) in addition to internal measures that citi has developed for a 30-day stress scenario , citi also monitors its liquidity by reference to the lcr , as calculated pursuant to the u.s . lcr rules . generally , the lcr is designed to ensure that banks maintain an adequate level of hqla to meet liquidity needs under an acute 30-day stress scenario . the lcr is calculated by dividing hqla by estimated net outflows over a stressed 30-day period , with the net outflows determined by applying prescribed outflow factors to various categories of liabilities , such as deposits , unsecured and secured wholesale borrowings , unused lending commitments and derivatives- related exposures , partially offset by inflows from assets maturing within 30 days . banks are required to calculate an add-on to address potential maturity mismatches between contractual cash outflows and inflows within the 30-day period in determining the total amount of net outflows . the minimum lcr requirement is 100% ( 100 % ) , effective january 2017 . in december 2016 , the federal reserve board adopted final rules which require additional disclosures relating to the lcr of large financial institutions , including citi . among other things , the final rules require citi to disclose components of its average hqla , lcr and inflows and outflows each quarter . in addition , the final rules require disclosure of citi 2019s calculation of the maturity mismatch add-on as well as other qualitative disclosures . the effective date for these disclosures is april 1 , 2017 . the table below sets forth the components of citi 2019s lcr calculation and hqla in excess of net outflows for the periods indicated : in billions of dollars dec . 31 , sept . 30 , dec . 31 . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in billions of dollars</td><td>dec . 31 2016</td><td>sept . 30 2016</td><td>dec . 31 2015</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>hqla</td><td>$ 403.7</td><td>$ 403.8</td><td>$ 389.2</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>net outflows</td><td>332.5</td><td>335.3</td><td>344.4</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>lcr</td><td>121% ( 121 % )</td><td>120% ( 120 % )</td><td>113% ( 113 % )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>hqla in excess of net outflows</td><td>$ 71.3</td><td>$ 68.5</td><td>$ 44.8</td></tr></table> note : amounts set forth in the table above are presented on an average basis . as set forth in the table above , citi 2019s lcr increased both year-over-year and sequentially . the increase year-over-year was driven by both an increase in hqla and a reduction in net outflows . sequentially , the increase was driven by a slight reduction in net outflows , as hqla remained largely unchanged . long-term liquidity measurement : net stable funding ratio ( nsfr ) in the second quarter of 2016 , the federal reserve board , the fdic and the occ issued a proposed rule to implement the basel iii nsfr requirement . the u.s.-proposed nsfr is largely consistent with the basel committee 2019s final nsfr rules . in general , the nsfr assesses the availability of a bank 2019s stable funding against a required level . a bank 2019s available stable funding would include portions of equity , deposits and long-term debt , while its required stable funding would be based on the liquidity characteristics of its assets , derivatives and commitments . standardized weightings would be required to be applied to the various asset and liabilities classes . the ratio of available stable funding to required stable funding would be required to be greater than 100% ( 100 % ) . while citi believes that it is compliant with the proposed u.s . nsfr rules as of december 31 , 2016 , it will need to evaluate any final version of the rules , which are expected to be released during 2017 . the proposed rules would require full implementation of the u.s . nsfr beginning january 1 , 2018. .\nQuestion: what is the net change in the lcr from 2014 to 2016?\n"

however , the shares are not issued and the employees cannot sell or transfer shares prior to vesting and have no voting rights until the rsus vest , generally three years from the date of the award . employees who are granted rsus receive dividend-equivalent cash payments only upon vesting . for these rsu awards , the grant-date fair value is equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant less a discount to reflect the delay in payment of dividend-equivalent cash payments . we recognize the grant-date fair value of rsus , less estimated forfeitures , as compensation expense ratably over the requisite service period , which beginning with the rsus granted in 2013 is shorter than the vesting period if the employee is retirement eligible on the date of grant or will become retirement eligible before the end of the vesting period. .\nQuestion: what is the non-cash stock-based compensation expense in 2013?\nAnswer: 189.0\nQuestion: what about in 2012?\nAnswer: 167.0\nQuestion: what is the net change?\nAnswer: 22.0\nQuestion: what percentage change does this represent?\nAnswer: 0.13174\nQuestion: what about the non-cash stock-based compensation expense in 2014?\n"

investment purchases , sales , maturities , and disposals ; and proceeds from divestitures and cash used for acquisitions . our capital expenditures were $ 11.8 billion in 2017 ( $ 9.6 billion in 2016 and $ 7.3 billion in 2015 ) . the decrease in cash used for investing activities in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily due to higher net activity of available-for sale-investments in 2017 , proceeds from our divestiture of isecg in 2017 , and higher maturities and sales of trading assets in 2017 . this activity was partially offset by higher capital expenditures in 2017 . the increase in cash used for investing activities in 2016 compared to 2015 was primarily due to our completed acquisition of altera , net purchases of trading assets in 2016 compared to net sales of trading assets in 2015 , and higher capital expenditures in 2016 . this increase was partially offset by lower investments in non-marketable equity investments . financing activities financing cash flows consist primarily of repurchases of common stock , payment of dividends to stockholders , issuance and repayment of short-term and long-term debt , and proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock through employee equity incentive plans . the increase in cash used for financing activities in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily due to net long-term debt activity , which was a use of cash in 2017 compared to a source of cash in 2016 . during 2017 , we repurchased $ 3.6 billion of common stock under our authorized common stock repurchase program , compared to $ 2.6 billion in 2016 . as of december 30 , 2017 , $ 13.2 billion remained available for repurchasing common stock under the existing repurchase authorization limit . we base our level of common stock repurchases on internal cash management decisions , and this level may fluctuate . proceeds from the sale of common stock through employee equity incentive plans totaled $ 770 million in 2017 compared to $ 1.1 billion in 2016 . our total dividend payments were $ 5.1 billion in 2017 compared to $ 4.9 billion in 2016 . we have paid a cash dividend in each of the past 101 quarters . in january 2018 , our board of directors approved an increase to our cash dividend to $ 1.20 per share on an annual basis . the board has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.30 per share of common stock for q1 2018 . the dividend is payable on march 1 , 2018 to stockholders of record on february 7 , 2018 . cash was used for financing activities in 2016 compared to cash provided by financing activities in 2015 , primarily due to fewer debt issuances and the repayment of debt in 2016 . this activity was partially offset by repayment of commercial paper in 2015 and fewer common stock repurchases in 2016 . md&a - results of operations consolidated results and analysis 37 .\nQuestion: what was the change in net cash provided by operating activities from 2015 to 2016?\nAnswer: 2790.0\nQuestion: and what was that net cash in 2015?\n"

declines in defense more than offset an increase in civil , while operating profit at intelligence essentially was unchanged . the $ 27 million decrease in operating profit at defense primarily was attributable to a decrease in the level of favorable performance adjustments on mission and combat systems activities in 2010 . the $ 19 million increase in civil principally was due to higher volume on enterprise civilian services . operating profit for the segment decreased by 3% ( 3 % ) in 2009 compared to 2008 . operating profit declines in civil and intelligence partially were offset by growth in defense . the decrease of $ 29 million in civil 2019s operating profit primarily was attributable to a reduction in the level of favorable performance adjustments on enterprise civilian services programs in 2009 compared to 2008 . the decrease in operating profit of $ 27 million at intelligence mainly was due to a reduction in the level of favorable performance adjustments on security solution activities in 2009 compared to 2008 . the increase in defense 2019s operating profit of $ 29 million mainly was due to volume and improved performance in mission and combat systems . the decrease in backlog during 2010 compared to 2009 mainly was due to higher sales volume on enterprise civilian service programs at civil , including volume associated with the dris 2010 program , and mission and combat system programs at defense . backlog decreased in 2009 compared to 2008 due to u.s . government 2019s exercise of the termination for convenience clause on the tsat mission operations system ( tmos ) contract at defense , which resulted in a $ 1.6 billion reduction in orders . this decline more than offset increased orders on enterprise civilian services programs at civil . we expect is&gs will experience a low single digit percentage decrease in sales for 2011 as compared to 2010 . this decline primarily is due to completion of most of the work associated with the dris 2010 program . operating profit in 2011 is expected to decline in relationship to the decline in sales volume , while operating margins are expected to be comparable between the years . space systems our space systems business segment is engaged in the design , research and development , engineering , and production of satellites , strategic and defensive missile systems , and space

the mobile user objective system ( muos ) , the global positioning satellite iii ( gps iii ) system , the space-based infrared system ( sbirs ) , and the geostationary operational environmental satellite r-series ( goes-r ) . strategic and missile defense programs include the targets and countermeasures program and the fleet ballistic missile program . space transportation includes the nasa orion program and , through ownership interests in two joint ventures , expendable launch services ( united launch alliance , or ula ) and space shuttle processing activities for the u.s . government ( united space alliance , or usa ) . the space shuttle is expected to complete its final flight mission in 2011 and our involvement with its launch and processing activities will end at that time .

the year . the $ 253 million decrease in space transportation principally was due to lower volume on the space shuttle external tank , commercial launch vehicle activity and other human space flight programs , which partially were offset by higher volume on the orion program . there were no commercial launches in 2010 compared to one commercial launch in 2009 . strategic & defensive missile systems ( s&dms ) sales declined $ 147 million principally due to lower volume on defensive missile programs . the $ 8 million sales decline in satellites primarily was attributable to lower volume on commercial satellites , which partially were offset by higher volume on government satellite activities . there was one commercial satellite delivery in 2010 and one commercial satellite delivery in 2009 . net sales for space systems increased 8% ( 8 % ) in 2009 compared to 2008 . during the year , sales growth at satellites and space transportation offset a decline in s&dms . the sales growth of $ 707 million in satellites was due to higher volume in government satellite activities , which partially was offset by lower volume in commercial satellite activities . there was one commercial satellite delivery in 2009 and two deliveries in 2008 . the increase in sales of $ 21 million in space transportation primarily was due to higher volume on the orion program , which more than offset a decline in the space shuttle 2019s external tank program . there was one commercial launch in both 2009 and 2008 . s&dms 2019 sales decreased by $ 102 million mainly due to lower volume on defensive missile programs , which more than offset growth in strategic missile programs. .\nQuestion: what is the difference between the net sales and the operating profit in 2010?\n"

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nliquidity monitoring and measurement stress testing liquidity stress testing is performed for each of citi 2019s major entities , operating subsidiaries and/or countries . stress testing and scenario analyses are intended to quantify the potential impact of an adverse liquidity event on the balance sheet and liquidity position , and to identify viable funding alternatives that can be utilized . these scenarios include assumptions about significant changes in key funding sources , market triggers ( such as credit ratings ) , potential uses of funding and geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions . these conditions include expected and stressed market conditions as well as company-specific events . liquidity stress tests are conducted to ascertain potential mismatches between liquidity sources and uses over a variety of time horizons and over different stressed conditions . liquidity limits are set accordingly . to monitor the liquidity of an entity , these stress tests and potential mismatches are calculated with varying frequencies , with several tests performed daily . given the range of potential stresses , citi maintains contingency funding plans on a consolidated basis and for individual entities . these plans specify a wide range of readily available actions for a variety of adverse market conditions or idiosyncratic stresses . short-term liquidity measurement : liquidity coverage ratio ( lcr ) in addition to internal liquidity stress metrics that citi has developed for a 30-day stress scenario , citi also monitors its liquidity by reference to the lcr , as calculated pursuant to the u.s . lcr rules . generally , the lcr is designed to ensure that banks maintain an adequate level of hqla to meet liquidity needs under an acute 30-day stress scenario . the lcr is calculated by dividing hqla by estimated net outflows over a stressed 30-day period , with the net outflows determined by applying prescribed outflow factors to various categories of liabilities , such as deposits , unsecured and secured wholesale borrowings , unused lending commitments and derivatives- related exposures , partially offset by inflows from assets maturing within 30 days . banks are required to calculate an add-on to address potential maturity mismatches between contractual cash outflows and inflows within the 30-day period in determining the total amount of net outflows . the minimum lcr requirement is 100% ( 100 % ) , effective january 2017 . pursuant to the federal reserve board 2019s final rule regarding lcr disclosures , effective april 1 , 2017 , citi began to disclose lcr in the prescribed format . the table below sets forth the components of citi 2019s lcr calculation and hqla in excess of net outflows for the periods indicated : in billions of dollars dec . 31 , sept . 30 , dec . 31 . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in billions of dollars</td><td>dec . 31 2017</td><td>sept . 30 2017</td><td>dec . 31 2016</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>hqla</td><td>$ 446.4</td><td>$ 448.6</td><td>$ 403.7</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>net outflows</td><td>364.3</td><td>365.1</td><td>332.5</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>lcr</td><td>123% ( 123 % )</td><td>123% ( 123 % )</td><td>121% ( 121 % )</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>hqla in excess of net outflows</td><td>$ 82.1</td><td>$ 83.5</td><td>$ 71.3</td></tr></table> note : amounts set forth in the table above are presented on an average basis . as set forth in the table above , citi 2019s lcr increased year- over-year , as the increase in the hqla ( as discussed above ) more than offset an increase in modeled net outflows . the increase in modeled net outflows was primarily driven by changes in assumptions , including changes in methodology to better align citi 2019s outflow assumptions with those embedded in its resolution planning . sequentially , citi 2019s lcr remained unchanged . long-term liquidity measurement : net stable funding ratio ( nsfr ) in 2016 , the federal reserve board , the fdic and the occ issued a proposed rule to implement the basel iii nsfr requirement . the u.s.-proposed nsfr is largely consistent with the basel committee 2019s final nsfr rules . in general , the nsfr assesses the availability of a bank 2019s stable funding against a required level . a bank 2019s available stable funding would include portions of equity , deposits and long-term debt , while its required stable funding would be based on the liquidity characteristics of its assets , derivatives and commitments . prescribed factors would be required to be applied to the various categories of asset and liabilities classes . the ratio of available stable funding to required stable funding would be required to be greater than 100% ( 100 % ) . while citi believes that it is compliant with the proposed u.s . nsfr rules as of december 31 , 2017 , it will need to evaluate a final version of the rules , which are expected to be released during 2018 . citi expects that the nsfr final rules implementation period will be communicated along with the final version of the rules. .\nQuestion: what was the change of hqla from 12/31/16 to 12/31/17?\nAnswer: 42.7\nQuestion: what was the increase of hqla in excess of net outflows between 2016 and

interest in the aosp , an oil sands mining and upgrading joint venture located in alberta , canada . the joint venture produces bitumen from oil sands deposits in the athabasca region utilizing mining techniques and upgrades the bitumen to synthetic crude oils and vacuum gas oil . the aosp 2019s mining and extraction assets are located near fort mcmurray , alberta , and include the muskeg river and the jackpine mines . gross design capacity of the combined mines is 255000 ( 51000 net to our interest ) barrels of bitumen per day . the aosp operations use established processes to mine oil sands deposits from an open-pit mine , extract the bitumen and upgrade it into synthetic crude oils . ore is mined using traditional truck and shovel mining techniques . the mined ore passes through primary crushers to reduce the ore chunks in size and is then sent to rotary breakers where the ore chunks are further reduced to smaller particles . the particles are combined with hot water to create slurry . the slurry moves through the extraction process where it separates into sand , clay and bitumen-rich froth . a solvent is added to the bitumen froth to separate out the remaining solids , water and heavy asphaltenes . the solvent washes the sand and produces clean bitumen that is required for the upgrader to run efficiently . the process yields a mixture of solvent and bitumen which is then transported from the mine to the scotford upgrader via the approximately 300-mile corridor pipeline . the aosp's scotford upgrader is located at fort saskatchewan , northeast of edmonton , alberta . the bitumen is upgraded at scotford using both hydrotreating and hydroconversion processes to remove sulfur and break the heavy bitumen molecules into lighter products . blendstocks acquired from outside sources are utilized in the production of our saleable products . the upgrader produces synthetic crude oils and vacuum gas oil . the vacuum gas oil is sold to an affiliate of the operator under a long-term contract at market-related prices , and the other products are sold in the marketplace . as of december 31 , 2014 , we own or have rights to participate in developed and undeveloped leases totaling approximately 163000 gross ( 33000 net ) acres . the underlying developed leases are held for the duration of the project , with royalties payable to the province of alberta . synthetic crude oil sales volumes for 2014 averaged 50 mbbld and net-of-royalty production was 41 mbbld . in december 2013 , a jackpine mine expansion project received conditional approval from the canadian government . the project includes additional mining areas , associated processing facilities and infrastructure . the government conditions relate to wildlife , the environment and aboriginal health issues . we will evaluate the potential expansion project and government conditions after infrastructure reliability initiatives are completed . the governments of alberta and canada have agreed to partially fund quest ccs for $ 865 million canadian . in the third quarter of 2012 , the energy and resources conservation board ( \"ercb\" ) , alberta's primary energy regulator at that time , conditionally approved the project and the aosp partners approved proceeding to construct and operate quest ccs . government funding commenced in 2012 and continued as milestones were achieved during the development , construction and operating phases . failure of the aosp to meet certain timing , performance and operating objectives may result in repaying some of the government funding . construction and commissioning of quest ccs is expected to be completed by late 2015. .\nQuestion: by what amount did net undeveloped acres decrease from 2015 to 2016?\n"

( 3 ) the reduction in the allocation of overhead costs to service operations and rental operations resulted from reduced volumes of third-party construction projects as well as due to reducing our overall investment in office properties , which are more management intensive . interest expense interest expense allocable to continuing operations increased from $ 220.5 million in 2011 to $ 245.2 million in 2012 . we had $ 47.4 million of interest expense allocated to discontinued operations in 2011 , associated with the properties that were disposed of during 2011 , compared to the allocation of only $ 3.1 million of interest expense to discontinued operations for 2012 . total interest expense , combined for continuing and discontinued operations , decreased from $ 267.8 million in 2011 to $ 248.3 million in 2012 . the reduction in total interest expense was primarily the result of a lower weighted average borrowing rate in 2012 , due to refinancing some higher rate bonds in 2011 and 2012 , as well as a slight decrease in our average level of borrowings compared to 2011 . also , due to an increase in properties under development from 2011 , which met the criteria for capitalization of interest and were financed in part by common equity issuances during 2012 , a $ 5.0 million increase in capitalized interest also contributed to the decrease in total interest expense in 2012 . acquisition-related activity during 2012 , we recognized approximately $ 4.2 million in acquisition costs , compared to $ 2.3 million of such costs in 2011 . the increase from 2011 to 2012 is the result of acquiring a higher volume of medical office properties , where a higher level of acquisition costs are incurred than other property types , in 2012 . during 2011 , we also recognized a $ 1.1 million gain related to the acquisition of a building from one of our 50%-owned unconsolidated joint ventures . discontinued operations subject to certain criteria , the results of operations for properties sold during the year to unrelated parties , or classified as held-for-sale at the end of the period , are required to be classified as discontinued operations . the property specific components of earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include rental revenues , rental expenses , real estate taxes , allocated interest expense and depreciation expense , as well as the net gain or loss on the disposition of properties . the operations of 150 buildings are currently classified as discontinued operations . these 150 buildings consist of 114 office , 30 industrial , four retail , and two medical office properties . as a result , we classified operating losses , before gain on sales , of $ 1.5 million , $ 1.8 million and $ 7.1 million in discontinued operations for the years ended december 31 , 2012 , 2011 and 2010 , respectively . of these properties , 28 were sold during 2012 , 101 properties were sold during 2011 and 19 properties were sold during 2010 . the gains on disposal of these properties of $ 13.5 million , $ 100.9 million and $ 33.1 million for the years ended december 31 , 2012 , 2011 and .\nQuestion: what were the general and administrative expenses in 2012?\nAnswer: 46.4\nQuestion: and what were they in 2011?\nAnswer: 43.1\nQuestion: what was, then, the change over the year?\nAnswer: 3.3\nQuestion: and how much does this change represent in relation to the 2011 expenses?\nAnswer: 0.07657\nQuestion: in that same period, what was the increase in the interest expense allocable to continuing operations?\nAnswer: 24.7\nQuestion: and what is this increase as a percentage of that interest expense in 2011?\n"

as of december 31 , 2016 . we had $ 1100.6 of cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities as of december 31 , 2016 that we generally invest in conservative , short-term bank deposits or securities . the interest income generated from these investments is subject to both domestic and foreign interest rate movements . during 2016 and 2015 , we had interest income of $ 20.1 and $ 22.8 , respectively . based on our 2016 results , a 100 basis-point increase or decrease in interest rates would affect our interest income by approximately $ 11.0 , assuming that all cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities are impacted in the same manner and balances remain constant from year-end 2016 levels . foreign currency rates we are subject to translation and transaction risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates . since we report revenues and expenses in u.s . dollars , changes in exchange rates may either positively or negatively affect our consolidated revenues and expenses ( as expressed in u.s . dollars ) from foreign operations . the foreign currencies that most impacted our results during 2016 included the british pound sterling and , to a lesser extent , the argentine peso , brazilian real and japanese yen . based on 2016 exchange rates and operating results , if the u.s . dollar were to strengthen or weaken by 10% ( 10 % ) , we currently estimate operating income would decrease or increase approximately 4% ( 4 % ) , assuming that all currencies are impacted in the same manner and our international revenue and expenses remain constant at 2016 levels . the functional currency of our foreign operations is generally their respective local currency . assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date , and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period presented . the resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss , net of tax , in the stockholders 2019 equity section of our consolidated balance sheets . our foreign subsidiaries generally collect revenues and pay expenses in their functional currency , mitigating transaction risk . however , certain subsidiaries may enter into transactions in currencies other than their functional currency . assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are susceptible to movements in foreign currency until final settlement . currency transaction gains or losses primarily arising from transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are included in office and general expenses . we regularly review our foreign exchange exposures that may have a material impact on our business and from time to time use foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of potential adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates arising from these exposures . we do not enter into foreign exchange contracts or other derivatives for speculative purposes. .\nQuestion: what wast the value of cash, cash equivalents and marketable

costs for a paper machine ) in 2008 and $ 415 million in 2007 . sales volumes decreased sig- nificantly in 2009 compared with 2008 reflecting weak customer demand and reduced production capacity resulting from the shutdown of a paper machine at the franklin mill in december 2008 and the conversion of the bastrop mill to pulp production in june 2008 . average sales price realizations were lower reflecting slight declines for uncoated freesheet paper in domestic markets and significant declines in export markets . margins were also unfavorably affected by a higher proportion of shipments to lower-margin export markets . input costs , however , were favorable due to lower wood and chemical costs and sig- nificantly lower energy costs . freight costs were also lower . planned maintenance downtime costs in 2009 were comparable with 2008 . operating costs were favorable , reflecting cost control efforts and strong machine performance . lack-of-order downtime increased to

2008 included $ 30 million of costs for the shutdown of a paper machine at our franklin mill . looking ahead to 2010 , first-quarter sales volumes are expected to increase slightly from fourth-quarter 2009 levels . average sales price realizations should be higher , reflecting the full-quarter impact of sales price increases announced in the fourth quarter for converting and envelope grades of uncoated free- sheet paper and an increase in prices to export markets . however , input costs for wood , energy and chemicals are expected to continue to increase . planned maintenance downtime costs should be lower and operating costs should be favorable . brazil ian papers net sales for 2009 of $ 960 mil- lion increased from $ 950 million in 2008 and $ 850 million in 2007 . operating profits for

. average sales price realizations were lower due to strong competitive pressures in the brazilian domestic market in the second half of the year , lower export prices and unfavorable foreign exchange rates . margins were unfavorably affected by a higher proportion of lower margin export sales . input costs for wood and chem- icals were favorable , but these benefits were partially offset by higher energy costs . planned maintenance downtime costs were lower , and operating costs were also favorable . earnings in 2009 were adversely impacted by unfavorable foreign exchange effects . entering 2010 , sales volumes are expected to be seasonally lower compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 . profit margins are expected to be slightly higher reflecting a more favorable geographic sales mix and improving sales price realizations in export markets , partially offset by higher planned main- tenance outage costs . european papers net sales in 2009 were $ 1.3 bil- lion compared with $ 1.7

lion ( $ 146 million excluding a charge to reduce the carrying value of the fixed assets at the inverurie , scotland mill to their estimated realizable value ) in 2008 and $ 171 million in 2007 . sales volumes in 2009 were lower than in 2008 primarily due to reduced sales of uncoated freesheet paper following the closure of the inverurie mill in 2009 . average sales price realizations decreased significantly in 2009 across most of western europe , but margins increased in poland and russia reflecting the effect of local currency devaluations . input costs were favorable as lower wood costs , particularly in russia , were only partially offset by higher energy costs in poland and higher chemical costs . planned main- tenance downtime costs were higher in 2009 than in 2008 , while manufacturing operating costs were lower . operating profits in 2009 also reflect favorable foreign exchange impacts . looking ahead to 2010 , sales volumes are expected to decline from strong

which is accounted for as a liability until such awards are paid to the participants in cash . as there are no vesting or service requirements on these awards , total compensation expense is recognized in full for these awards on the date of grant . incentive/performance unit share awards and restricted stock/share unit awards the fair value of nonvested incentive/performance unit share awards and restricted stock/share unit awards is initially determined based on prices not less than the market value of our common stock on the date of grant . the value of certain incentive/performance unit share awards is subsequently remeasured based on the achievement of one or more financial and other performance goals . the personnel and compensation committee ( 201cp&cc 201d ) of the board of directors approves the final award payout with respect to certain incentive/performance unit share awards . these awards have either a three-year or a four-year performance period and are payable in either stock or a combination of stock and cash . restricted stock/share unit awards have various vesting periods generally ranging from 3 years to 5 years . beginning in 2013 , we incorporated several enhanced risk- related performance changes to certain long-term incentive compensation programs . in addition to achieving certain financial performance metrics on both an absolute basis and relative to our peers , final payout amounts will be subject to reduction if pnc fails to meet certain risk-related performance metrics as specified in the award agreements . however , the p&cc has the discretion to waive any or all of this reduction under certain circumstances . the weighted-average grant date fair value of incentive/ performance unit share awards and restricted stock/unit awards granted in 2014 , 2013 and 2012 was $ 80.79 , $ 64.77 and $ 60.68 per share , respectively . the total fair value of incentive/performance unit share and restricted
