2011 , we eliminated positions as we reduced management layers , restructured certain areas , announced closures of certain facilities , and commenced initiatives to focus on business opportunities that best support our strategic priorities . in 2013 , 2012 and 2011 , approximately 170 , 400 and 500 positions , respectively , from across the globe were affected by these actions . as a result of these changes in our work force and headcount reductions in connection with acquisitions , we incurred expenses related to severance benefits , redundant salaries as we worked through transition periods , share-based compensation acceleration and other employee termination-related costs . the majority of these termination benefits were provided in accordance with our existing or local government policies and are considered ongoing benefits . these costs were accrued when they became probable and estimable and were recorded as part of other current liabilities . the majority of these costs were paid during the year they were incurred . dedicated project personnel expenses include the salary , benefits , travel expenses and other costs directly associated with employees who are 100 percent dedicated to our operational and quality excellence initiatives or integration of acquired businesses . certain r&d agreements relate to agreements with upfront payments to obtain

operational excellence initiatives . the terminated contracts primarily relate to sales agents and distribution agreements . contingent consideration adjustments represent the changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations to be paid to the prior owners of acquired businesses . accelerated software amortization is the incremental amortization resulting from a reduction in the estimated life of certain software . in 2012 , we approved a plan to replace certain software . as a result , the estimated economic useful life of the existing software was decreased to represent the period of time expected to implement replacement software . as a result , the amortization from the shortened life of this software is substantially higher than the previous amortization being recognized . cash and cash equivalents 2013 we consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents . the carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents are valued at cost , which approximates their fair value. .\nQuestion: what was the net change in value of contract terminations from 2011 to 2012?\nAnswer:

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nmanagement 2019s discussion and analysis 132 jpmorgan chase & co./2010 annual report unpaid principal balance due to negative amortization of option arms was $ 24 million and $ 78 million at december 31 , 2010 and 2009 , respectively . the firm estimates the following balances of option arm loans will experience a recast that results in a payment increase : $ 72 million in 2011 , $ 241 million in 2012 and $ 784 million in 2013 . the firm did not originate option arms and new originations of option arms were discontinued by washington mutual prior to the date of jpmorgan chase 2019s acquisition of its banking operations . subprime mortgages at december 31 , 2010 were $ 11.3 billion , compared with $ 12.5 billion at december 31 , 2009 . the decrease was due to paydowns and charge-offs on delinquent loans , partially offset by the addition of loans as a result of the adoption of the accounting guidance related to vies . late-stage delinquencies remained elevated but continued to improve , albeit at a slower rate during the second half of the year , while early-stage delinquencies stabilized at an elevated level during this period . nonaccrual loans improved largely as a result of the improvement in late-stage delinquencies . charge-offs reflected modest improvement . auto : auto loans at december 31 , 2010 , were $ 48.4 billion , compared with $ 46.0 billion at december 31 , 2009 . delinquent and nonaccrual loans have decreased . in addition , net charge-offs have declined 52% ( 52 % ) from the prior year . provision expense de- creased due to favorable loss severity as a result of a strong used- car market nationwide and reduced loss frequency due to the tightening of underwriting criteria in earlier periods . the auto loan portfolio reflected a high concentration of prime quality credits . business banking : business banking loans at december 31 , 2010 , were $ 16.8 billion , compared with $ 17.0 billion at december 31 , 2009 . the decrease was primarily a result of run-off of the washington mutual portfolio and charge-offs on delinquent loans . these loans primarily include loans which are highly collateralized , often with personal loan guarantees . nonaccrual loans continued to remain elevated . after having increased during the first half of 2010 , nonaccrual loans as of december 31 , 2010 , declined to year-end 2009 levels . student and other : student and other loans at december 31 , 2010 , including loans held-for-sale , were $ 15.3 billion , compared with $ 16.4 billion at december 31 , 2009 . other loans primarily include other secured and unsecured consumer loans . delinquencies reflected some stabilization in the second half of 2010 , but remained elevated . charge-offs during 2010 remained relatively flat with 2009 levels reflecting the impact of elevated unemployment levels . purchased credit-impaired loans : pci loans at december 31 , 2010 , were $ 72.8 billion compared with $ 81.2 billion at december 31 , 2009 . this portfolio represents loans acquired in the washing- ton mutual transaction that were recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition . that fair value included an estimate of credit losses expected to be realized over the remaining lives of the loans , and therefore no allowance for loan losses was recorded for these loans as of the acquisition date . the firm regularly updates the amount of principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected for these loans . probable decreases in expected loan principal cash flows would trigger the recognition of impairment through the provision for loan losses . probable and significant increases in expected cash flows ( e.g. , decreased principal credit losses , the net benefit of modifications ) would first reverse any previously recorded allowance for loan losses , with any remaining increase in the expected cash flows recognized prospectively in interest income over the remaining estimated lives of the underlying loans . during 2010 , management concluded as part of the firm 2019s regular assessment of the pci pools that it was probable that higher expected principal credit losses would result in a decrease in expected cash flows . accordingly , the firm recognized an aggregate $ 3.4 billion impairment related to the home equity , prime mortgage , option arm and subprime mortgage pci portfolios . as a result of this impairment , the firm 2019s allowance for loan losses for the home equity , prime mortgage , option arm and subprime mortgage pci portfolios was $ 1.6 billion , $ 1.8 billion , $ 1.5 billion and $ 98 million , respectively , at december 31 , 2010 , compared with an allowance for loan losses of $ 1.1 billion and $ 491 million for the prime mortgage and option arm pci portfolios , respectively , at december 31 , 2009 . approximately 39% ( 39 % ) of the option arm borrowers were delinquent , 5% ( 5 % ) were making interest-only or negatively amortizing payments , and 56% ( 56 % ) were making amortizing payments . approximately 50% ( 50 % ) of current borrowers are subject to risk of payment shock due to future payment recast ; substantially all of the remaining loans have been modified to a fixed rate fully amortizing loan . the cumulative amount of unpaid interest added to the unpaid principal balance of the option arm pci pool was $ 1.4 billion and $ 1.9 billion at de- cember 31 , 2010 and 2009 , respectively . the firm estimates the following balances of option arm pci loans will experience a recast that results in a payment increase : $ 1.2 billion in 2011 , $ 2.7 billion in 2012 and $ 508 million in 2013 . the following table provides a summary of lifetime loss estimates included in both the nonaccretable difference and the allowance for loan losses . principal charge-offs will not be recorded on these pools until the nonaccretable difference has been fully depleted . lifetime loss estimates ( a ) ltd liquidation losses ( b ) . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>december 31 ( in millions )</td><td>lifetime loss estimates ( a )

actions of various central banks ; changes in u.s . and non-u.s . interest rates ; changes in the various yield curves around the world ; revised or proposed regulatory capital or liquidity standards , or interpretations of those standards ; the amount of discount accretion generated by the former conduit securities that remain in our investment securities portfolio ; and the yields earned on securities purchased compared to the yields earned on securities sold or matured . based on market conditions and other factors , we continue to reinvest the majority of the proceeds from pay-downs and maturities of investment securities in highly-rated securities , such as u.s . treasury and agency securities , municipal securities , federal agency mortgage-backed securities and u.s . and non-u.s . mortgage- and asset-backed securities . the pace at which we continue to reinvest and the types of investment securities purchased will depend on the impact of market conditions and other factors over time . we expect these factors and the levels of global interest rates to influence what effect our reinvestment program will have on future levels of our net interest revenue and net interest margin. .\nQuestion: what was the change in the average u.s . short-duration advances from 2012 to 2013?\nAnswer: 384.0\nQuestion: and what were those advances in 2012?\nAnswer: 1972.0\nQuestion: how much, then, does that change represent in relation to these 2012 advances, in percentage?\n"

inspections , audits , inquiries and similar actions by governmental authorities arising in the normal course of business . the types of allegations that arise in connection with such legal proceedings vary in nature , but can include claims related to contract , employment , tax and intellectual property matters . we evaluate all cases each reporting period and record liabilities for losses from legal proceedings when we determine that it is probable that the outcome in a legal proceeding will be unfavorable and the amount , or potential range , of loss can be reasonably estimated . in certain cases , we cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss because , for example , the litigation is in its early stages . while any outcome related to litigation or such governmental proceedings in which we are involved cannot be predicted with certainty , management believes that the outcome of these matters , individually and in the aggregate , will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition , results of operations or cash flows . as previously disclosed , on april 10 , 2015 , a federal judge in brazil authorized the search of the records of an agency 2019s offices in s e3o paulo and brasilia , in connection with an ongoing investigation by brazilian authorities involving payments potentially connected to local government contracts . the company had previously investigated the matter and taken a number of remedial and disciplinary actions . the company has been in the process of concluding a settlement related to these matters with government agencies , and that settlement was fully executed in april 2018 . the company has previously provided for such settlement in its consolidated financial statements. .\nQuestion: what was the amount of

The answer may require mathematical calculation based on the data provided.\n\nour overall gross margin percentage decreased to 59.8% ( 59.8 % ) in 2013 from 62.1% ( 62.1 % ) in 2012 . the decrease in the gross margin percentage was primarily due to the gross margin percentage decrease in pccg . we derived most of our overall gross margin dollars in 2013 and 2012 from the sale of platforms in the pccg and dcg operating segments . our net revenue for 2012 , which included 52 weeks , decreased by $ 658 million , or 1% ( 1 % ) , compared to 2011 , which included 53 weeks . the pccg and dcg platform unit sales decreased 1% ( 1 % ) while average selling prices were unchanged . additionally , lower netbook platform unit sales and multi-comm average selling prices , primarily discrete modems , contributed to the decrease . these decreases were partially offset by our mcafee operating segment , which we acquired in the q1 2011 . mcafee contributed $ 469 million of additional revenue in 2012 compared to 2011 . our overall gross margin dollars for 2012 decreased by $ 606 million , or 2% ( 2 % ) , compared to 2011 . the decrease was due in large part to $ 494 million of excess capacity charges , as well as lower revenue from the pccg and dcg platform . to a lesser extent , approximately $ 390 million of higher unit costs on the pccg and dcg platform as well as lower netbook and multi-comm revenue contributed to the decrease . the decrease was partially offset by $ 643 million of lower factory start-up costs as we transition from our 22nm process technology to r&d of our next- generation 14nm process technology , as well as $ 422 million of charges recorded in 2011 to repair and replace materials and systems impacted by a design issue related to our intel ae 6 series express chipset family . the decrease was also partially offset by the two additional months of results from our acquisition of mcafee , which occurred on february 28 , 2011 , contributing approximately $ 334 million of additional gross margin dollars in 2012 compared to 2011 . the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles resulted in a $ 557 million reduction to our overall gross margin dollars in 2012 , compared to $ 482 million in 2011 , primarily due to acquisitions completed in q1 2011 . our overall gross margin percentage in 2012 was flat from 2011 as higher excess capacity charges and higher unit costs on the pccg and dcg platform were offset by lower factory start-up costs and no impact in 2012 for a design issue related to our intel 6 series express chipset family . we derived a substantial majority of our overall gross margin dollars in 2012 and 2011 from the sale of platforms in the pccg and dcg operating segments . pc client group the revenue and

primarily on softness in traditional pc demand during the first nine months of the year . the decrease in revenue was driven by lower notebook and desktop platform unit sales which were down 4% ( 4 % ) and 2% ( 2 % ) , respectively . pccg platform average selling prices were flat , with 6% ( 6 % ) higher desktop platform average selling prices offset by 4% ( 4 % ) lower notebook platform average selling prices . operating income decreased by $ 1.3 billion , or 10% ( 10 % ) , in 2013 compared to 2012 , which was driven by $ 1.5 billion of lower gross margin , partially offset by $ 200 million of lower operating expenses . the decrease in gross margin was driven by $ 1.5 billion of higher factory start-up costs primarily on our next-generation 14nm process technology as well as lower pccg platform revenue . these decreases were partially offset by approximately $ 520 million of lower pccg platform unit costs , $ 260 million of lower excess capacity charges , and higher sell-through of previously non- qualified units . net revenue for the pccg operating segment decreased by $ 1.1 billion , or 3% ( 3 % ) , in 2012 compared to 2011 . pccg revenue was negatively impacted by the growth of tablets as these devices compete with pcs for consumer sales . platform average selling prices and unit sales decreased 2% ( 2 % ) and 1% ( 1 % ) , respectively . the decrease was driven by 6% ( 6 % ) lower notebook platform average selling prices and 5% ( 5 % ) lower desktop platform unit sales . these decreases were partially offset by a 4% ( 4 % ) increase in desktop platform average selling

with the construction of its development projects and related infrastructure , certain public agencies require posting of performance and surety bonds to guarantee that the company 2019s obligations are satisfied . these bonds expire upon the completion of the improvements and infrastructure . as of december 31 , 2010 , there were approximately $ 45.3 million in performance and surety bonds outstanding . as of december 31 , 2010 , the company had accrued $ 3.8 million in connection with a legal claim related to a previously sold ground-up development project . the company is currently negotiating with the plaintiff to settle this claim and believes that the prob- able settlement amount will approximate the amount accrued . the company is subject to various other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business . management believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position , results of operations or liquidity of the company . 23 . incentive plans : the company maintains two equity participation plans , the second amended and restated 1998 equity participation plan ( the 201cprior plan 201d ) and the 2010 equity participation plan ( the 201c2010 plan 201d ) ( collectively , the 201cplans 201d ) . the prior plan provides for a maxi- mum of 47000000 shares of the company 2019s common stock to be issued for qualified and non-qualified options and restricted stock grants . the 2010 plan provides for a maximum of 5000000 shares of the company 2019s common stock to be issued for qualified and non-qualified options , restricted stock , performance awards and other awards , plus the number of shares of common stock which are or become available for issuance under the prior plan and which are not thereafter issued under the prior plan , subject to certain conditions . unless otherwise determined by the board of directors at its sole discretion , options granted under the plans generally vest ratably over a range of three to five years , expire ten years from the date of grant and are exercisable at the market price on the date of grant . restricted stock grants generally vest ( i ) 100% ( 100 % ) on the fourth or fifth anniversary of the grant , ( ii ) ratably over three or four years or ( iii ) over three years at 50% ( 50 % ) after two years and 50% ( 50 % ) after the third year . performance share awards may provide a right to receive shares of restricted stock based on the company 2019s performance relative to its peers , as defined , or based on other performance criteria as determined by the board of directors . in addition , the plans provide for the granting of certain options and restricted stock to each of the company 2019s non-employee directors ( the 201cindependent directors 201d ) and permits such independent directors to elect to receive deferred stock awards in lieu of directors 2019 fees . the company accounts for stock options in accordance with fasb 2019s compensation 2014stock compensation guidance which requires that all share based payments to employees , including grants of employee stock options , be recognized in the statement of operations over the service period based on their fair values . the fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the black-scholes option pricing formula . the assump- tion for expected volatility has a significant affect on the grant date fair value . volatility is determined based on the historical equity of common stock for the most recent historical period equal to the expected term of the options plus an implied volatility measure . the more significant assumptions underlying the determination of fair values for options granted

integration of temple-inland and mill divestiture costs ) compared with $ 1.1 billion ( both including and excluding costs associated with signing an agree- ment to acquire temple-inland ) in 2011 and $ 763 million ( $ 776 million excluding facility closure costs ) in 2010 . sales volumes for the legacy business were about flat in 2012 compared with 2011 . average sales price was lower mainly due to export containerboard sales prices which bottomed out in the first quarter but climbed steadily the rest of the year . input costs were lower for recycled fiber , wood and natural gas , but higher for starch . freight costs also increased . plan- ned maintenance downtime costs were higher than in 2011 . operating costs were higher largely due to routine inventory valuation adjustments operating profits in 2012 benefited from $ 235 million of temple-inland synergies . market-related downtime in 2012 was about 570000 tons compared with about 380000 tons in 2011 . operating profits in 2012

with the fourth quarter of 2012 are expected to increase slightly for boxes due to a higher number of shipping days . average sales price realizations are expected to reflect the pass-through to box customers of a containerboard price increase implemented in 2012 . input costs are expected to be higher for recycled fiber , wood and starch . planned maintenance downtime costs are expected to be about $ 26 million higher with outages scheduled at eight mills compared with six mills in the 2012 fourth quarter . manufacturing operating costs are expected to be lower . european industr ia l

demand for packaging in the industrial market due to a weaker overall economic environment in southern europe . demand for pack- aging in the agricultural markets was about flat year- over-year . average sales margins increased due to sales price increases implemented during 2011 and 2012 and lower board costs . other input costs were higher , primarily for energy and distribution . operat- ing profits in 2012 included a net gain of $ 10 million for an insurance settlement , partially offset by addi- tional operating costs , related to the earthquakes in northern italy in may which affected our san felice box plant . entering the first quarter of 2013 , sales volumes are expected to be stable reflecting a seasonal decrease in market demand in agricultural markets offset by an increase in industrial markets . average sales margins are expected to improve due to lower input costs for containerboard . other input costs should be about flat . operating costs are expected to be higher reflecting the absence of the earthquake insurance settlement that was received in the 2012 fourth quar- asian industr ia l packaging net sales and operating profits include the results of sca pack- aging since the acquisition on june 30 , 2010 , includ- ing the impact of incremental integration costs . net sales for the packaging operations were $ 400 million in 2012 compared with $ 410

excluding facility closure costs ) in 2010 . operating profits were favorably impacted by higher average sales margins in 2012 compared with 2011 , but this benefit was offset by lower sales volumes and higher raw material costs and operating costs . looking ahead to the first quarter of 2013 , sales volumes and average sales margins are expected to decrease due to seasonality . net sales for the

the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the applicable period . diluted eps is calculated after adjusting the denominator of the basic eps calculation for the effect of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares , which in the company 2019s case , includes shares issuable under share-based compensation plans . the following table summarizes the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations: . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in

december 31 , 2018 , 0.1 million stock options were excluded from the computation of weighted-average diluted shares outstanding because the effect of including these shares would have been anti-dilutive . note 19 2013 net revenues net revenues are recognized based on the satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a contract . a performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer control of a distinct product or to provide a service , or a bundle of products or services , to a customer , and is the unit of account under asc 606 . the company has two principal revenue streams , tangible product sales and services . approximately 99% ( 99 % ) of consolidated net revenues involve contracts with a single performance obligation , which is the transfer of control of a product or bundle of products to a customer . transfer of control typically occurs when goods are shipped from the company's facilities or at other predetermined control transfer points ( for instance , destination terms ) . net revenues are measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring control of the products and takes into account variable consideration , such as sales incentive programs including discounts and volume rebates . the existence of these programs does not preclude revenue recognition but does require the company's best estimate of the variable consideration to be made based on expected activity , as these items are reserved for as a deduction to net revenues over time based on the company's historical rates of providing these incentives and annual forecasted sales volumes . the company also offers a standard warranty with most product sales and the value of such warranty is included in the contractual price . the corresponding cost of the warranty obligation is accrued as a liability ( see note 20 ) . the company's remaining net revenues involve services , including installation and consulting . unlike the single performance obligation to ship a product or bundle of products , the service revenue stream delays revenue recognition until the service performance obligations are satisfied . in some instances , customer acceptance provisions are included in sales arrangements to give the buyer the ability to ensure the service meets the criteria established in the order . in these instances , revenue recognition is deferred until the performance obligations are satisfied , which could include acceptance terms specified in the arrangement being fulfilled through customer acceptance or a demonstration that established criteria have been satisfied . during the year ended december 31 , 2018 , no adjustments related to performance obligations satisfied in previous periods were recorded . upon adoption of asc 606 , the company used the practical expedients to omit the disclosure of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less and for contracts where the company has the right to invoice for performance completed to date . the transaction price is not adjusted for the effects of a significant financing component , as the time period between control transfer of goods and services is less than one year . sales , value-added and other similar taxes collected by the company are excluded from net revenues . the company has also elected to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the related goods transfers as fulfillment activities instead of performance obligations . these activities are included in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income . the company 2019s payment terms are generally consistent with the industries in which their businesses operate . the following table shows the company's net revenues for the years ended december 31 , based on the two principal revenue streams , tangible product sales and services , disaggregated by business segment . net revenues are shown by tangible product sales and services , as contract terms , conditions and economic factors affecting the nature , amount , timing and uncertainty around revenue recognition and cash flows are substantially similar within each of the two principal revenue streams: .\nQuestion: what is the difference between the weighted-average

directors deferred stock unit plan . a deferred stock unit is a phantom share of our common stock , which requires liability accounting treatment until such awards are paid to the participants 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 2012 , we incorporated several risk-related performance changes to certain incentive compensation programs . in addition to achieving certain financial performance metrics relative to our peers , the final payout amount will be subject to a negative adjustment if pnc fails to meet certain risk-related performance metrics as specified in the award agreement . however , the p&cc has the discretion to reduce any or all of this negative adjustment under certain circumstances . these awards have a three-year performance period and are payable in either stock or a combination of stock and cash . additionally , performance-based restricted share units were granted in 2012 to certain of our executives in lieu of stock options , with generally the same terms and conditions as the 2011 awards of the same . the weighted-average grant-date fair value of incentive/ performance unit share awards and restricted stock/unit awards granted in 2012 , 2011 and 2010 was $ 60.68 , $ 63.25 and $ 54.59 per share , respectively . we recognize compensation expense for such awards ratably over the corresponding vesting and/or performance periods for each type of program . table 130 : nonvested

liabilities and related rates paid , and noninterest-bearing sources of funding . see statistical information 2013 analysis of year-to-year changes in net interest ( unaudited ) income and average consolidated balance sheet and net interest analysis in item 8 of this report for additional information . higher net interest income for 2009 compared with 2008 reflected the increase in average interest-earning assets due to national city and the improvement in the net interest margin . the net interest margin was 3.82% ( 3.82 % ) for 2009 and 3.37% ( 3.37 % ) for 2008 . the following factors impacted the comparison : 2022 a decrease in the rate accrued on interest-bearing liabilities of 97 basis points . the rate accrued on interest-bearing deposits , the largest component , decreased 107 basis points . 2022 these factors were partially offset by a 45 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets . the yield on loans , which represented the largest portion of our earning assets in 2009 , decreased 30 basis points . 2022 in addition , the impact of noninterest-bearing sources of funding decreased 7 basis points . for comparing to the broader market , the average federal funds rate was .16% ( .16 % ) for 2009 compared with 1.94% ( 1.94 % ) for 2008 . we expect our net interest income for 2010 will likely be modestly lower as a result of cash recoveries on purchased impaired loans in 2009 and additional run-off of higher- yielding assets , which could be mitigated by rising interest rates . this assumes our current expectations for interest rates and economic conditions 2013 we include our current economic assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements in the cautionary statement regarding forward-looking information section of this item 7 . noninterest income summary noninterest income was $ 7.1 billion for 2009 and $ 2.4 billion for 2008 . noninterest income for 2009 included the following : 2022 the gain on blackrock/bgi transaction of $ 1.076 billion , 2022 net credit-related other-than-temporary impairments ( otti ) on debt and equity securities of $ 577 million , 2022 net gains on sales of securities of $ 550 million , 2022

management revenue increased $ 172 million to $ 858 million in 2009 , compared with $ 686 million in 2008 . this increase reflected improving equity markets , new business generation and a shift in assets into higher yielding equity investments during the second half of 2009 . assets managed totaled $ 103 billion at both december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , including the impact of national city . the asset management group section of the business segments review section of this item 7 includes further discussion of assets under management . consumer services fees totaled $ 1.290 billion in 2009 compared with $ 623 million in 2008 . service charges on deposits totaled $ 950 million for 2009 and $ 372 million for 2008 . both increases were primarily driven by the impact of the national city

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 value of cash provided by operating activities in 2017?\nAnswer: 22110.0\nQuestion: what was the value in 2016?\nAnswer: 21808.0\nQuestion: what is the net change in value?\nAnswer: 302.0\nQuestion: what was the 2016 value?\nAnswer: 21808.0\nQuestion: what is the net change divided by the 2016 value?\n"

warranty matters . amounts recorded for identified contingent liabilities are estimates , which are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available . subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities , except as expressly set forth in this note , management believes that any liability which may result from these legal matters would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition , results of operations , liquidity or cash flows of the company . environmental matters the company is dedicated to an environmental program to reduce the utilization and generation of hazardous materials during the manufacturing process and to remediate identified environmental concerns . as to the latter , the company is currently engaged in site investigations and remediation activities to address environmental cleanup from past operations at current and former production facilities . the company regularly evaluates its remediation programs and considers alternative remediation methods that are in addition to , or in replacement of , those currently utilized by the company based upon enhanced technology and regulatory changes . changes to the company's remediation programs may result in increased expenses and increased environmental reserves . the company is sometimes a party to environmental lawsuits and claims and has received notices of potential violations of environmental laws and regulations from the u.s . environmental protection agency and similar state authorities .

sites , there are other prps and , in most instances , the company 2019s involvement is minimal . in estimating its liability , the company has assumed it will not bear the entire cost of remediation of any site to the exclusion of other prps who may be jointly and severally liable . the ability of other prps to participate has been taken into account , based on our understanding of the parties 2019 financial condition and probable contributions on a per site basis . additional lawsuits and claims involving environmental matters are likely to arise from time to time in the future . the company incurred $ 3.2 million , $ 23.3 million , and $ 4.4 million of expenses during the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , for environmental remediation at sites presently or formerly owned or leased by the company . in the fourth-quarter of 2016 , with the collaboration and approval of state regulators , the company launched a proactive , alternative approach
