for 2012 was $ 3.0 billion compared with $ 3.1 billion for 2011 . revenue growth of 8 percent and a decline in the provision for credit losses were more than offset by a 16 percent increase in noninterest expense in 2012 compared to 2011 . further detail is included in the net interest income , noninterest income , provision for credit losses and noninterest expense portions of this

8700</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>net interest margin</td><td>3.94% ( 3.94 % )</td><td>3.92% ( 3.92 % )</td></tr></table> changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction of the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and related yields , interest-bearing liabilities and related rates paid , and noninterest-bearing sources of funding . see the statistical information ( unaudited ) 2013 average consolidated balance sheet and net interest analysis and analysis of year-to-year changes in net interest income in item 8 of this report and the discussion of purchase accounting accretion of purchased impaired loans in the consolidated balance sheet review in this item 7 for additional information . the increase in net interest income in 2012 compared with 2011 was primarily due to the impact of the rbc bank ( usa ) acquisition , organic loan growth and lower funding costs . purchase accounting accretion remained stable at $ 1.1 billion in both periods . the net interest margin was 3.94% ( 3.94 % ) for 2012 and 3.92% ( 3.92 % ) for 2011 . the increase in the comparison was primarily due to a decrease in the weighted-average rate accrued on total interest- bearing liabilities of 29 basis points , largely offset by a 21 basis point decrease on the yield on total interest-earning assets . the decrease in the rate on interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to the runoff of maturing retail certificates of deposit and the redemption of additional trust preferred and hybrid capital securities during 2012 , in addition to an increase in fhlb borrowings and commercial paper as lower-cost funding sources . the decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets was primarily due to lower rates on new loan volume and lower yields on new securities in the current low rate environment . with respect to the first quarter of 2013 , we expect net interest income to decline by two to three percent compared to fourth quarter 2012 net interest income of $ 2.4 billion , due to a decrease in purchase accounting accretion of up to $ 50 to $ 60 million , including lower expected cash recoveries . for the full year 2013 , we expect net interest income to decrease compared with 2012 , assuming an expected decline in purchase accounting accretion of approximately $ 400 million , while core net interest income is expected to increase in the year-over-year comparison . we believe our net interest margin will come under pressure in 2013 , due to the expected decline in purchase accounting accretion and assuming that the current low rate environment continues . noninterest income noninterest income totaled $ 5.9 billion for 2012 and $ 5.6 billion for 2011 . the overall increase in the comparison was primarily due to an increase in residential mortgage loan sales revenue driven by higher loan origination volume , gains on sales of visa class b common shares and higher corporate service fees , largely offset by higher provision for residential mortgage repurchase obligations . asset management revenue , including blackrock , totaled $ 1.2 billion in 2012 compared with $ 1.1 billion in 2011 . this increase was primarily due to higher earnings from our blackrock investment . discretionary assets under management increased to $ 112 billion at december 31 , 2012 compared with $ 107 billion at december 31 , 2011 driven by stronger average equity markets , positive net flows and strong sales performance . for 2012 , consumer services fees were $ 1.1 billion compared with $ 1.2 billion in 2011 . the decline reflected the regulatory impact of lower interchange fees on debit card transactions partially offset by customer growth . as further discussed in the retail banking portion of the business segments review section of this item 7 , the dodd-frank limits on interchange rates were effective october 1 , 2011 and had a negative impact on revenue of approximately $ 314 million in 2012 and $ 75 million in 2011 . this impact was partially offset by higher volumes of merchant , customer credit card and debit card transactions and the impact of the rbc bank ( usa ) acquisition . corporate services revenue increased by $ .3 billion , or 30 percent , to $ 1.2 billion in 2012 compared with $ .9 billion in 2011 due to higher commercial mortgage servicing revenue and higher merger and acquisition advisory fees in 2012 . the major components of corporate services revenue are treasury management revenue , corporate finance fees , including revenue from capital markets-related products and services , and commercial mortgage servicing revenue , including commercial mortgage banking activities . see the product revenue portion of this consolidated income statement review for

689343</td><td>$ 652827</td></tr></table> although our three reportable segments comprising rental operations ( office , industrial and retail ) are all within the real estate industry , they are not necessarily affected by the same economic and industry conditions . for example , our retail segment experienced high occupancies and strong overall performance during 2003 , while our office and industrial segments reflected the weaker economic environment for those property types . the primary causes of the increase in rental income from continuing operations , with specific references to a particular segment when applicable , are summarized below : 25cf during 2003 , in-service occupancy improved from 87.1% ( 87.1 % ) at the end of 2002 to 89.3% ( 89.3 % ) at the end of 2003 . the second half of 2003 was highlighted by a significant increase in the industrial portfolio occupancy of 2.1% ( 2.1 % ) along with a slight increase in office portfolio occupancy of 0.9% ( 0.9 % ) . 25cf lease termination fees totaled $ 27.4 million in 2002 compared to $ 16.2 million in 2003 . most of this decrease was attributable to the office segment , which recognized $ 21.1 million of termination fees in 2002 as compared to $ 11.8 million in 2003 . lease termination fees relate to specific tenants that pay a fee to terminate their lease obligations before the end of the contractual lease term . the high volume of termination fees in 2002 was reflective of the contraction of the business of large office users during that year and their desire to downsize their use of office space . the decrease in termination fees for 2003 was indicative of an improving economy and a more stable financial position of our tenants . 25cf during the year ended 2003 , we acquired $ 232 million of properties totaling 2.1 million square feet . the acquisitions were primarily class a office buildings in existing markets with overall occupancy near 90% ( 90 % ) . revenues associated with these acquisitions totaled $ 11.9 million in 2003 . in addition , revenues from 2002 acquisitions totaled $ 15.8 million in 2003 compared to $ 4.8 million in 2002 . this significant increase is primarily

thereafter , respectively . we view home equity lines of credit where borrowers are paying principal and interest under the draw period as less risky than those where the borrowers are paying interest only , as these borrowers have a demonstrated ability to make some level of principal and interest payments . based upon outstanding balances , and excluding purchased impaired loans , at december 31 , 2012 , for home equity lines of credit for which the borrower can no longer draw ( e.g. , draw period has ended or borrowing privileges have been terminated ) , approximately 3.86% ( 3.86 % ) were 30-89 days past due and approximately 5.96% ( 5.96 % ) were greater than or equal to 90 days past due . generally , when a borrower becomes 60 days past due , we terminate borrowing privileges , and those privileges are not subsequently reinstated . at that point , we continue our collection/recovery processes , which may include a loss mitigation loan modification resulting in a loan that is classified as a tdr . see note 5 asset quality in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report for additional information . loan modifications and troubled debt restructurings consumer loan modifications we modify loans under government and pnc-developed programs based upon our commitment to help eligible homeowners and borrowers avoid foreclosure , where appropriate . initially , a borrower is evaluated for a modification under a government program . if a borrower does not qualify under a government program , the borrower is then evaluated under a pnc program . our programs utilize both temporary and permanent modifications and typically reduce the interest rate , extend the term and/or defer principal . temporary and permanent modifications under programs involving a change to loan terms are generally classified as tdrs . further , certain payment plans and trial payment arrangements which do not include a contractual change to loan terms may be classified as tdrs . additional detail on tdrs is discussed below as well as in note 5 asset quality in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report . a temporary modification , with a term between three and 60 months , involves a change in original loan terms for a period of time and reverts to a calculated exit rate for the remaining term of the loan as of a specific date . a permanent modification , with a term greater than 60 months , is a modification in which the terms of the original loan are changed . permanent modifications primarily include the government-created home affordable modification program ( hamp ) or pnc-developed hamp-like modification programs . for consumer loan programs , such as residential mortgages and home equity loans and lines , we will enter into a temporary modification when the borrower has indicated a temporary hardship and a willingness to bring current the delinquent loan balance . examples of this situation often include delinquency due to illness or death in the family , or a loss of employment . permanent modifications are entered into when it is confirmed that the borrower does not possess the income necessary to continue making loan payments at the current amount , but our expectation is that payments at lower amounts can be made . residential mortgage and home equity loans and lines have been modified with changes in terms for up to 60 months , although the majority involve periods of three to 24 months . we also monitor the success rates and delinquency status of our loan modification programs to assess their effectiveness in serving our customers 2019 needs while mitigating credit losses . the following tables provide the number of accounts and unpaid principal balance of modified

as cash . as there are no vesting or service requirements on these awards , total compensation expense is recognized in full on awarded deferred stock units on the date of grant . incentive/performance unit share awards and restricted stock/unit awards the fair value of nonvested incentive/performance unit share awards and restricted stock/unit awards is initially determined based on prices not less than the market value of our common stock price 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 generally over a three-year period . the personnel and compensation committee of the board of directors approves the final award payout with respect to incentive/performance unit share awards . restricted stock/unit awards have various vesting periods generally ranging from 36 months to 60 months . beginning in 2011 , we incorporated two changes to certain awards under our existing long-term incentive compensation programs . first , for certain grants of incentive performance units , the future payout amount will be subject to a negative annual adjustment if pnc fails to meet certain risk-related performance metrics . this adjustment is in addition to the existing financial performance metrics relative to our peers . these grants have a three-year performance period and are payable in either stock or a combination of stock and cash . second , performance-based restricted share units ( performance rsus ) were granted in 2011 to certain of our executives in lieu of stock options . these performance rsus ( which are payable solely in stock ) have a service condition , an internal risk-related performance condition , and an external market condition . satisfaction of the performance condition is based on four independent one-year performance periods . the weighted-average grant-date fair value of incentive/ performance unit share awards and restricted stock/unit awards granted in 2011 , 2010 and 2009 was $ 63.25 , $ 54.59 and $ 41.16 per share , respectively . we recognize compensation expense for such

course of business , the firm uses derivative instruments predominantly for market-making activities . derivatives enable customers to manage exposures to fluctuations in interest rates , currencies and other markets . the firm also uses derivative instruments to manage its own credit and other market risk exposure . the nature of the counterparty and the settlement mechanism of the derivative affect the credit risk to which the firm is exposed . for otc derivatives the firm is exposed to the credit risk of the derivative counterparty . for exchange- traded derivatives ( 201cetd 201d ) , such as futures and options and 201ccleared 201d over-the-counter ( 201cotc-cleared 201d ) derivatives , the firm is generally exposed to the credit risk of the relevant ccp . where possible , the firm seeks to mitigate its credit risk exposures arising from derivative transactions through the use of legally enforceable master netting arrangements and collateral agreements . for further discussion of derivative contracts , counterparties and settlement types , see note 6 . the following table summarizes the net derivative receivables for the periods presented . derivative receivables . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>december 31 ( in millions )</td><td>2016</td><td>2015</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>interest rate</td><td>$ 28302</td><td>$

opinion has not been either sought or obtained . derivative receivables reported on the consolidated balance sheets were $ 64.1 billion and $ 59.7 billion at december 31 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively . these amounts represent the fair value of the derivative contracts after giving effect to legally enforceable master netting agreements and cash collateral held by the firm . however , in management 2019s view , the appropriate measure of current credit risk should also take into consideration additional liquid securities ( primarily u.s . government and agency securities and other group of seven nations ( 201cg7 201d ) government bonds ) and other cash collateral held by the firm aggregating $ 22.7 billion and $ 16.6 billion at december 31 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , that may be used as security when the fair value of the client 2019s exposure is in the firm 2019s favor . the change in derivative receivables was predominantly related to client-driven market-making activities in cib . the increase in derivative receivables reflected the impact of market movements , which increased foreign exchange receivables , partially offset by reduced commodity derivative receivables . in addition to the collateral described in the preceding paragraph , the firm also holds additional collateral ( primarily cash , g7 government securities , other liquid government-agency and guaranteed securities , and corporate debt and equity securities ) delivered by clients at the initiation of transactions , as well as collateral related to contracts that have a non-daily call frequency and collateral that the firm has agreed to return but has not yet settled as of the reporting date . although this collateral does not reduce the balances and is not included in the table above , it is available as security against potential exposure that could arise should the fair value of the client 2019s derivative transactions move in the firm 2019s favor . the derivative receivables fair value , net of all collateral , also does not include other credit enhancements , such as letters of credit . for additional information on the firm 2019s use of collateral agreements , see note 6 . while useful as a current view of credit exposure , the net fair value of the derivative receivables does not capture the potential future variability of that credit exposure . to capture the potential future variability of credit exposure , the firm calculates , on a client-by-client basis , three measures of potential derivatives-related credit loss : peak , derivative risk equivalent ( 201cdre 201d ) , and average exposure ( 201cavg 201d ) . these measures all incorporate netting and collateral benefits , where applicable . peak represents a conservative measure of potential exposure to a counterparty calculated in a manner that is broadly equivalent to a 97.5% ( 97.5 % ) confidence level over the life of the transaction . peak is the primary measure used by the firm for setting of credit limits for derivative transactions , senior management reporting and derivatives exposure management . dre exposure is a measure that expresses the risk of derivative exposure on a basis intended to be equivalent to the risk of loan exposures . dre is a less extreme measure of potential credit loss than peak and is used for aggregating derivative credit risk exposures with loans and other credit risk . finally , avg is a measure of the expected fair value of the firm 2019s derivative receivables at future time periods , including the benefit of collateral . avg exposure over the total life of the derivative contract is used as the primary metric for pricing purposes and is used to calculate credit capital and the cva , as further described below . the three year avg exposure was $ 31.1 billion and $ 32.4 billion at december 31 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , compared with derivative receivables , net of all collateral , of $ 41.4 billion and $ 43.1 billion at december 31 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively . the fair value of the firm 2019s derivative receivables incorporates an adjustment , the cva , to reflect the credit quality of counterparties . the cva is based on the firm 2019s avg to a counterparty and the counterparty 2019s credit spread in the credit derivatives market . the primary components of changes in cva are credit spreads , new deal activity or unwinds , and changes in the underlying market environment . the firm believes that active risk management is essential to controlling the dynamic credit .\nQuestion: what was the foreign exchange

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\ntable of contents recoverability of goodwill is measured at the reporting unit level and begins with a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test prescribed by gaap . for those reporting units where it is required , the first step compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit to its estimated fair value . if the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount , goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not necessary . to the extent that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value , a second step is performed , wherein the reporting unit's carrying value of goodwill is compared to the implied fair value of goodwill . to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the implied fair value , impairment exists and must be recognized . the calculation of estimated fair value is based on two valuation techniques , a discounted cash flow model ( income approach ) and a market adjusted multiple of earnings and revenues ( market approach ) , with each method being weighted in the calculation . the implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination . the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit ( including any unrecognized intangible assets ) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit , as determined in the first step of the goodwill impairment test , was the price paid to acquire that reporting unit . recoverability of other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives ( i.e . trademarks ) is determined on a relief from royalty methodology ( income approach ) , which is based on the implied royalty paid , at an appropriate discount rate , to license the use of an asset rather than owning the asset . the present value of the after-tax cost savings ( i.e . royalty relief ) indicates the estimated fair value of the asset . any excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment loss equal to that excess . intangible assets such as patents , customer-related intangible assets and other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic lives . the weighted-average useful lives approximate the following: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>customer relationships</td><td>25</td><td>years</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>trademarks</td><td>25</td><td>years</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>completed technology/patents</td><td>10</td><td>years</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>other</td><td>25</td><td>years</td></tr></table> recoverability of intangible assets with finite useful lives is assessed in the same manner as property , plant and equipment as described above . income taxes : for purposes of the company 2019s consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the spin-off , income tax expense has been recorded as if the company filed tax returns on a stand-alone basis separate from ingersoll rand . this separate return methodology applies the accounting guidance for income taxes to the stand-alone financial statements as if the company was a stand-alone enterprise for the periods prior to the spin-off . therefore , cash tax payments and items of current and deferred taxes may not be reflective of the company 2019s actual tax balances prior to or subsequent to the spin-off . cash paid for income taxes for the year ended december 31 , 2015 was $ 80.6 million . the income tax accounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as of december 31 , 2015 and 2014 include income taxes payable and deferred taxes allocated to the company at the time of the spin-off . the calculation of the company 2019s income taxes involves considerable judgment and the use of both estimates and allocations . deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities , applying enacted tax rates expected to be in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse . the company recognizes future tax benefits , such as net operating losses and tax credits , to the extent that realizing these benefits is considered in its judgment to be more likely than not . the company regularly reviews the recoverability of its deferred tax assets considering its historic profitability , projected future taxable income , timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and the feasibility of its tax planning strategies . where appropriate , the company records a valuation allowance with respect to a future tax benefit . product warranties : standard product warranty accruals are recorded at the time of sale and are estimated based upon product warranty terms and historical experience . the company assesses the adequacy of its liabilities and will make adjustments as necessary based on known or anticipated warranty claims , or as new information becomes available. .\nQuestion: what is the sum of years for customer relationships and

available historical data . pnc 2019s determination of the alll for non-impaired loans is sensitive to the risk grades assigned to commercial loans and loss rates for consumer loans . there are several other qualitative and quantitative factors considered in determining the alll . this sensitivity analysis does not necessarily reflect the nature and extent of future changes in the alll . it is intended to provide insight into the impact of adverse changes to risk grades and loss rates only and does not imply any expectation of future deterioration in the risk ratings or loss rates . given the current processes used , we believe the risk grades and loss rates currently assigned are appropriate . in the hypothetical event that the aggregate weighted average commercial loan risk grades would experience a 1% ( 1 % ) deterioration , assuming all other variables remain constant , the allowance for commercial loans would increase by approximately $ 35 million as of december 31 , 2014 . in the hypothetical event that consumer loss rates would increase by 10% ( 10 % ) , assuming all other variables remain constant , the allowance for consumer loans would increase by approximately $ 37 million at december 31 , 2014 . purchased impaired loans are initially recorded at fair value and applicable accounting guidance prohibits the carry over or creation of valuation allowances at acquisition . because the initial fair values of these loans already reflect a credit component , additional reserves are established when performance is expected to be worse than our expectations as of the acquisition date . at december 31 , 2014 , we had established reserves of $ .9 billion for purchased impaired loans . in addition , loans ( purchased impaired and non- impaired ) acquired after january 1 , 2009 were recorded at fair value . no allowance for loan losses was carried over and no allowance was created at the date of acquisition . see note 4 purchased loans in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report for additional information . in determining the appropriateness of the alll , we make specific allocations to impaired loans and allocations to portfolios of commercial and consumer loans . we also allocate reserves to provide coverage for probable losses incurred in the portfolio at the balance sheet date based upon current market conditions , which may not be reflected in historical loss data . commercial lending is the largest category of credits and is sensitive to changes in assumptions and judgments underlying the determination of the alll . we have allocated approximately $ 1.6 billion , or 47% ( 47 % ) , of the alll at december 31 , 2014 to the commercial lending category . consumer lending allocations are made based on historical loss experience adjusted for recent activity . approximately $ 1.7 billion , or 53% ( 53 % ) , of the alll at december 31 , 2014 has been allocated to these consumer lending categories . in addition to the alll , we maintain an allowance for unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit . we report this allowance as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet . we maintain the allowance for unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit at a level we believe is appropriate to absorb estimated probable losses on these unfunded credit facilities . we determine this amount using estimates of the probability of the ultimate funding and losses related to those credit exposures . other than the estimation of the probability of funding , this methodology is very similar to the one we use for determining our alll . we refer you to note 1 accounting policies and note 3 asset quality in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report for further information on certain key asset quality indicators that we use to evaluate our portfolios and establish the allowances . table 41 : allowance for loan and lease losses . <table

the primary drivers of the decrease to the provision were improved overall credit quality , including lower consumer loan delinquencies , and the increasing value of residential real estate which resulted in greater expected cash flows from our purchased impaired loans . for 2014 , the provision for commercial lending credit losses increased by $ 64 million , or 178% ( 178 % ) , from 2013

was not subject to expiration . however , this repurchase program was limited to covering net dilution from stock issuances and was subject to business conditions and cash flow requirements as determined by our board of directors from time to time . during the third quarter of fiscal 2010 , our board of directors approved an amendment to our stock repurchase program authorized in april 2007 from a non-expiring share-based authority to a time-constrained dollar-based authority . as part of this amendment , the board of directors granted authority to repurchase up to $ 1.6 billion in common stock through the end of fiscal 2012 . this amended program did not affect the $ 250.0 million structured stock repurchase agreement entered into during march 2010 . as of december 3 , 2010 ,

agreements in order to take advantage of repurchasing shares at a guaranteed discount to the volume weighted average price ( 201cvwap 201d ) of our common stock over a specified period of time . we only enter into such transactions when the discount that we receive is higher than the foregone return on our cash prepayments to the financial institutions . there were no explicit commissions or fees on these structured repurchases . under the terms of the agreements , there is no requirement for the financial institutions to return any portion of the prepayment to us . the financial institutions agree to deliver shares to us at monthly intervals during the contract term . the parameters used to calculate the number of shares deliverable are : the total notional amount of the

repurchase program to facilitate our stock repurchase program , designed to return value to our stockholders and minimize dilution from stock issuances , we repurchase shares in the open market and also enter into structured repurchase agreements with third-parties . authorization to repurchase shares to cover on-going dilution was not subject to expiration . however , this repurchase program was limited to covering net dilution from stock issuances and was subject to business conditions and cash flow requirements as determined by our board of directors from time to time . during the third quarter of fiscal 2010 , our board of directors approved an amendment to our stock repurchase program authorized in april 2007 from a non-expiring share-based authority to a time-constrained dollar-based authority . as part of this amendment , the board of directors granted authority to repurchase up to $ 1.6 billion in common stock through the end of fiscal 2012 . this amended program

and the remaining $ 600.0 million was under the amended $ 1.6 billion time-constrained dollar- based authority . we enter into these agreements in order to take advantage of repurchasing shares at a guaranteed discount to the volume weighted average price ( 201cvwap 201d ) of our common stock over a specified period of time . we only enter into such transactions when the discount that we receive is higher than the foregone return on our cash prepayments to the financial institutions . there were no explicit commissions or fees on these structured repurchases . under the terms of the agreements , there is no requirement for the financial institutions to return any portion of the prepayment to us . the financial institutions agree to deliver shares to us at monthly intervals during the contract term . the parameters used to calculate the number of shares deliverable are : the total notional amount of the contract , the number of trading days in the contract , the number of trading days in the interval and the average vwap of our stock during the interval less the agreed upon discount . during fiscal 2011 , we repurchased approximately 21.8 million shares at an average price of $ 31.81 through structured repurchase agreements entered into during fiscal 2011 . during fiscal 2010 , we repurchased approximately 31.2 million shares at an average price of $ 29.19 through

value of good- will for the pullmantur reporting unit was $ 145.5 mil- lion and recognized an impairment charge of $ 319.2 million based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model further discussed below . this impair- ment charge was recognized in earnings during the fourth quarter of 2012 and is reported within impair- ment of pullmantur related assets within our consoli- dated statements of comprehensive income ( loss ) . during the fourth quarter of 2014 , we performed a qualitative assessment of whether it was more-likely- than-not that our royal caribbean international reporting unit 2019s fair value was less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impair- ment test . the qualitative analysis included assessing the impact of certain factors such as general economic conditions , limitations on accessing capital , changes in forecasted operating results , changes in fuel prices and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates . based on our qualitative assessment , we concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the estimated fair value of the royal caribbean international reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and thus , we did not pro- ceed to the two-step goodwill impairment test . no indicators of impairment exist primarily because the reporting unit 2019s fair value has consistently exceeded its carrying value by a significant margin , its financial performance has been solid in the face of mixed economic environments and forecasts of operating results generated by the reporting unit appear suffi- cient to support its carrying value . we also performed our annual impairment review of goodwill for pullmantur 2019s reporting unit during the fourth quarter of 2014 . we did not perform a quali- tative assessment but instead proceeded directly to the two-step goodwill impairment test . we estimated the fair value of the pullmantur reporting unit using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model . the principal assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model are projected operating results , weighted- average cost of capital , and terminal value . signifi- cantly impacting these assumptions are the transfer of vessels from our other cruise brands to pullmantur . the discounted cash flow model used our 2015 pro- jected operating results as a base . to that base , we added future years 2019 cash flows assuming multiple rev- enue and expense scenarios that reflect the impact of different global economic environments beyond 2015 on pullmantur 2019s reporting unit . we assigned a probability to each revenue and expense scenario . we discounted the projected cash flows using rates specific to pullmantur 2019s reporting unit based on its weighted-average cost of capital . based on the probability-weighted discounted cash flows , we deter- mined the fair value of the pullmantur reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 52% ( 52 % ) resulting in no impairment to pullmantur 2019s goodwill . pullmantur is a brand targeted primarily at the spanish , portuguese and latin american markets , with an increasing focus on latin america . the persistent economic instability in these markets has created sig- nificant uncertainties in forecasting operating results and future cash flows used in our impairment analyses . we continue to monitor economic events in these markets for their potential impact on pullmantur 2019s business and valuation . further , the estimation of fair value utilizing discounted expected future cash flows includes numerous uncertainties which require our significant judgment when making assumptions of expected revenues , operating costs , marketing , sell- ing and administrative expenses , interest rates , ship additions and retirements as well as assumptions regarding the cruise vacation industry 2019s competitive environment and general economic and business conditions , among other factors . if there are changes to the projected future cash flows used in the impairment analyses , especially in net yields or if certain transfers of vessels from our other cruise brands to the pullmantur fleet do not take place , it is possible that an impairment charge of pullmantur 2019s reporting unit 2019s goodwill may be required . of these factors , the planned transfers of vessels to the pullmantur fleet is most significant to the projected future cash flows . if the transfers do not occur , we will likely fail step one of the impairment test . note 4 . intangible assets intangible assets are reported in

we , our regulators and investors use to assess our ability to meet future regulatory capital requirements . the estimated fully phased-in basel iii advanced and standardized cet1 ratios are non-gaap measures as of both december 2014 and december 2013 and may not be comparable to similar non-gaap measures used by other companies ( as of those dates ) . these estimated ratios are based on our current interpretation , expectations and understanding of the revised capital framework and may evolve as we discuss its interpretation and application with our regulators . see note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for information about our transitional capital ratios , which represent our binding ratios as of december 2014 . in the table above : 2030 the deduction for goodwill

2014 and december 2013 , respectively . 2030 the deduction for investments in nonconsolidated financial institutions represents the amount by which our investments in the capital of nonconsolidated financial institutions exceed certain prescribed thresholds . the decrease from december 2013 to december 2014 primarily reflects reductions in our fund investments . 2030 other adjustments primarily include the overfunded portion of our defined benefit pension plan obligation , net of associated deferred tax liabilities , and disallowed deferred tax assets , credit valuation adjustments on derivative liabilities and debt valuation adjustments , as well as other required credit risk-based deductions . supplementary leverage ratio the revised capital framework introduces a new supplementary leverage ratio for advanced approach banking organizations . under amendments to the revised capital framework , the u.s . federal bank regulatory agencies approved a final rule that implements the supplementary leverage ratio aligned with the definition of leverage established by the basel committee . the supplementary leverage ratio compares tier 1 capital to a measure of leverage exposure , defined as the sum of our quarterly average assets less certain deductions plus certain off-balance-sheet exposures , including a measure of derivatives exposures and commitments . the revised capital framework requires a minimum supplementary leverage ratio of 5.0% ( 5.0 % ) ( comprised of the minimum requirement of 3.0% ( 3.0 % ) and a 2.0% ( 2.0 % ) buffer ) for u.s . banks deemed to be g-sibs , effective on january 1 , 2018 . certain disclosures regarding the supplementary leverage ratio are required beginning in the first quarter of 2015 . as of december 2014 , our

billion , primarily comprised of off-balance-sheet exposure related to derivatives and commitments ) . we believe that the estimated supplementary leverage ratio is meaningful because it is a measure that we , our regulators and investors use to assess our ability to meet future regulatory capital requirements . the supplementary leverage ratio is a non-gaap measure and may not be comparable to

intermediation transactions represent a range of transactions designed to provide investors with specified returns based on the returns of an underlying security , referenced asset or index . these transactions include credit-linked notes and equity-linked notes . in these transactions , the spe typically obtains exposure to the underlying security , referenced asset or index through a derivative instrument , such as a total-return swap or a credit-default swap . in turn the spe issues notes to investors that pay a return based on the specified underlying security , referenced asset or index . the spe invests the proceeds in a financial asset or a guaranteed insurance contract ( gic ) that serves as collateral for the derivative contract over the term of the transaction . the company 2019s involvement in these transactions includes being the counterparty to the spe 2019s derivative instruments and investing in a portion of the notes issued by the spe . in certain

as the amount invested in notes issued by the spe and the notional amount of any risk of loss absorbed by the company through a separate instrument issued by the spe . the derivative instrument held by the company may generate a receivable from the spe ( for example , where the company purchases credit protection from the spe in connection with the spe 2019s issuance of a credit-linked note ) ,

its commitment to provide support facilities that would support the sivs 2019 senior debt ratings . as a result of this commitment , citigroup became the sivs 2019 primary beneficiary and began consolidating these entities . on february 12 , 2008 , citigroup finalized the terms of the support facilities , which took the form of a commitment to provide $ 3.5 billion of mezzanine capital to the sivs in the event the market value of their junior notes approaches zero . the mezzanine capital facility was increased by $ 1 billion to $ 4.5 billion , with the additional commitment funded

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\ninvestment policy , which is described more fully in note 15 employee benefit plans in the notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report . we calculate the expense associated with the pension plan and the assumptions and methods that we use include a policy of reflecting trust assets at their fair market value . on an annual basis , we review the actuarial assumptions related to the pension plan , including the discount rate , the rate of compensation increase and the expected return on plan assets . the discount rate and compensation increase assumptions do not significantly affect pension expense . however , the expected long-term return on assets assumption does significantly affect pension expense . our expected long- term return on plan assets for determining net periodic pension expense has been 8.25% ( 8.25 % ) for the past three years . the expected return on plan assets is a long-term assumption established by considering historical and anticipated returns of the asset classes invested in by the pension plan and the allocation strategy currently in place among those classes . while this analysis gives appropriate consideration to recent asset performance and historical returns , the assumption represents a long-term prospective return . we review this assumption at each measurement date and adjust it if warranted . for purposes of setting and reviewing this assumption , 201clong- term 201d refers to the period over which the plan 2019s projected benefit obligation will be disbursed . while year-to-year annual returns can vary significantly ( rates of return for the reporting years of 2009 , 2008 , and 2007 were +20.61% ( +20.61 % ) , -32.91% ( -32.91 % ) , and +7.57% ( +7.57 % ) , respectively ) , the assumption represents our estimate of long-term average prospective returns . our selection process references certain historical data and the current environment , but primarily utilizes qualitative judgment regarding future return expectations . recent annual returns may differ but , recognizing the volatility and unpredictability of investment returns , we generally do not change the assumption unless we modify our investment strategy or identify events that would alter our expectations of future returns . to evaluate the continued reasonableness of our assumption , we examine a variety of viewpoints and data . various studies have shown that portfolios comprised primarily of us equity securities have returned approximately 10% ( 10 % ) over long periods of time , while us debt securities have returned approximately 6% ( 6 % ) annually over long periods . application of these historical returns to the plan 2019s allocation of equities and bonds produces a result between 8% ( 8 % ) and 8.5% ( 8.5 % ) and is one point of reference , among many other factors , that is taken into consideration . we also examine the plan 2019s actual historical returns over various periods . recent experience is considered in our evaluation with appropriate consideration that , especially for short time periods , recent returns are not reliable indicators of future returns , and in many cases low returns in recent time periods are followed by higher returns in future periods ( and vice versa ) . acknowledging the potentially wide range for this assumption , we also annually examine the assumption used by other companies with similar pension investment strategies , so that we can ascertain whether our determinations markedly differ from other observers . in all cases , however , this data simply informs our process , which places the greatest emphasis on our qualitative judgment of future investment returns , given the conditions existing at each annual measurement date . the expected long-term return on plan assets for determining net periodic pension cost for 2009 was 8.25% ( 8.25 % ) , unchanged from 2008 . during 2010 , we intend to decrease the midpoint of the plan 2019s target allocation range for equities by approximately five percentage points . as a result of this change and taking into account all other factors described above , pnc will change the expected long-term return on plan assets to 8.00% ( 8.00 % ) for determining net periodic pension cost for 2010 . under current accounting rules , the difference between expected long-term returns and actual returns is accumulated and amortized to pension expense over future periods . each one percentage point difference in actual return compared with our expected return causes expense in subsequent years to change by up to $ 8 million as the impact is amortized into results of operations . the table below reflects the estimated effects on pension expense of certain changes in annual assumptions , using 2010 estimated expense as a baseline . change in assumption ( a ) estimated increase to 2010 pension expense ( in millions ) . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>change in assumption ( a )</td><td>estimatedincrease to 2010pensionexpense ( inmillions )</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>.5% ( .5 % ) decrease in discount rate</td><td>$ 10</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>.5% ( .5 % ) decrease in expected long-term return on assets</td><td>$ 18</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>.5% ( .5 % ) increase in compensation rate</td><td>$ 3</td></tr></table> ( a ) the impact is the effect of changing the specified assumption while holding all other assumptions constant . we currently estimate a pretax pension expense of $ 41 million in 2010 compared with pretax expense of $ 117 million in 2009 . this year-over-year reduction was primarily due to the amortization impact of the favorable 2009 investment returns as compared with the expected long-term return assumption . our pension plan contribution requirements are not particularly sensitive to actuarial assumptions . investment performance has the most impact on contribution requirements and will drive the amount of permitted contributions in future years . also , current law , including the provisions of the pension protection act of 2006 , sets limits as to both minimum and maximum contributions to the plan . we expect that the minimum required contributions under the law will be zero for 2010 . we maintain other defined benefit plans that have a less significant effect on financial results , including various .\nQuestion: what were the pretax pension expenses in 2010?\n" }, { "role": "agent", "content":
