compensation cost recognized for rsus totaled $ 7.3 million , $ 4.9 million and $ 3.0 million for the years ended december 31 , 2009 , 2008 and 2007 , respectively .

as of december 31 , 2009 , there was $ 6.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested rsus granted under the plan , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.3 years .

in an effort to manage interest rate risk , we may enter into interest rate hedging arrangements from time to time .

we do not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes .

in november 2007 , we entered into forward starting interest swaps with notional amounts appropriate to hedge interest rates on $ 300.0 million of anticipated debt offerings in 2009 .

the forward starting swaps were appropriately designated and tested for effectiveness as cash flow hedges .

in march 2008 , we settled the forward starting swaps and made a cash payment of $ 14.6 million to the counterparties .

an effectiveness test was performed as of the settlement date and it was concluded that a highly effective cash flow hedge was still in place for the expected debt offering .

of the amount paid in settlement , approximately $ 700000 was immediately reclassified to interest expense , as the result of partial ineffectiveness calculated at the settlement date .

the net amount of $ 13.9 million was recorded in other comprehensive income ( 201coci 201d ) and is being recognized through interest expense over the life of the hedged debt offering , which took place in may 2008 .

/ 2007 annual report 31 the following section provides a comparative discussion of jpmorgan chase 2019s consolidated results of operations on a reported basis for the three-year period ended december 31 , 2007 .

factors that relate primarily to a single business segment are discussed in more detail within that business segment than they are in this consolidated sec- tion .

for a discussion of the critical accounting estimates used by the firm that affect the consolidated results of operations , see pages 96 201398 of this annual report .

2007 compared with 2006 total net revenue of $ 71.4 billion was up $ 9.4 billion , or 15% ( 15 % ) , from the prior year .

higher net interest income , very strong private equity gains , record asset management , administration and commissions revenue , higher mortgage fees and related income and record investment banking fees contributed to the revenue growth .

these increases were offset partially by lower trading revenue .

investment banking fees grew in 2007 to a level higher than the pre- vious record set in 2006 .

record advisory and equity underwriting fees drove the results , partially offset by lower debt underwriting fees .

for a further discussion of investment banking fees , which are primarily recorded in ib , see the ib segment results on pages 40 201342 of this annual report .

principal transactions revenue consists of trading revenue and private equity gains .

trading revenue declined significantly from the 2006 level , primarily due to markdowns in ib of $ 1.4 billion ( net of hedges ) on subprime positions , including subprime cdos , and $ 1.3 billion ( net of fees ) on leveraged lending funded loans and unfunded commitments .

also in ib , markdowns in securitized products on nonsubprime mortgages and weak credit trading performance more than offset record revenue in currencies and strong revenue in both rates and equities .

equities benefited from strong client activity and record trading results across all products .

ib 2019s credit portfolio results increased compared with the prior year , primarily driven by higher revenue from risk management activities .

the increase in private equity gains from 2006 reflected a significantly higher level of gains , the classification of certain private equity carried interest as compensation expense and a fair value adjustment in the first quarter of 2007 on nonpublic private equity investments resulting from the adoption of sfas 157 ( 201cfair value measurements 201d ) .

for a further discussion of principal transactions revenue , see the ib and corporate segment results on pages 40 201342 and 59 201360 , respectively , and note 6 on page 122 of this annual report .

lending & deposit-related fees rose from the 2006 level , driven pri- marily by higher deposit-related fees and the bank of new york transaction .

for a further discussion of lending & deposit-related fees , which are mostly recorded in rfs , tss and cb , see the rfs segment results on pages 43 201348 , the tss segment results on pages 54 201355 , and the cb segment results on pages 52 201353 of this annual report .

asset management , administration and commissions revenue reached a level higher than the previous record set in 2006 .

increased assets under management and higher performance and placement fees in am drove the record results .

the 18% ( 18 % ) growth in assets under management from year-end 2006 came from net asset inflows and market appreciation across all segments : institutional , retail , private bank and private client services .

tss also contributed to the rise in asset management , administration and commissions revenue , driven by increased product usage by new and existing clients and market appreciation on assets under custody .

finally , commissions revenue increased , due mainly to higher brokerage transaction volume ( primarily included within fixed income and equity markets revenue of ib ) , which more than offset the sale of the insurance business by rfs in the third quarter of 2006 and a charge in the first quarter of 2007 resulting from accelerated surrenders of customer annuities .

for additional information on these fees and commissions , see the segment discussions for ib on pages 40 201342 , rfs on pages 43 201348 , tss on pages 54 201355 , and am on pages 56 201358 , of this annual report .

the favorable variance resulting from securities gains in 2007 compared with securities losses in 2006 was primarily driven by improvements in the results of repositioning of the treasury invest- ment securities portfolio .

also contributing to the positive variance was a $ 234 million gain from the sale of mastercard shares .

for a fur- ther discussion of securities gains ( losses ) , which are mostly recorded in the firm 2019s treasury business , see the corporate segment discussion on pages 59 201360 of this annual report .

contractual obligations for future payments under existing debt and lease commitments and purchase obli- gations at december 31 , 2005 , were as follows : in millions 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 thereafter .

( a ) the 2006 amount includes $ 2.4 billion for contracts made in the ordinary course of business to purchase pulpwood , logs and wood chips .

the majority of our other purchase obligations are take-or-pay or purchase commitments made in the ordinary course of business related to raw material purchases and energy contracts .

other significant items include purchase obligations related to contracted services .

transformation plan in july 2005 , the company announced a plan to focus its business portfolio on two key global platform businesses : uncoated papers ( including distribution ) and packaging .

the plan also focuses on improving shareholder return through mill realignments in those two businesses , additional cost improvements and exploring strategic options for other businesses , includ- ing possible sale or spin-off .

in connection with this process , in the third quarter of 2005 , the company completed the sale of its 50.5% ( 50.5 % ) interest in carter holt harvey limited .

other businesses currently under re- view include : 2022 the coated and supercalendered papers busi- ness , including the coated groundwood mill and associated assets in brazil , 2022 the beverage packaging business , including the pine bluff , arkansas mill , 2022 the kraft papers business , including the roa- noke rapids , north carolina mill , 2022 arizona chemical , 2022 the wood products business , and 2022 segments or potentially all of the company 2019s 6.5 million acres of u.s .

consistent with this evaluation process , the com- pany has distributed bid package information for some of these businesses .

the exact timing of this evaluation process will vary by business ; however , it is anticipated that decisions will be made for some of these businesses during 2006 .

while the exact use of any proceeds from potential future sales is dependent upon various factors affecting future cash flows , such as the amount of any proceeds received and changes in market conditions , input costs and capital spending , the company remains committed to using its free cash flow in 2006 to pay down debt , to return value to shareholders , and for se- lective high-return investments .

( a ) the 2006 amount includes $ 2.4 billion for contracts made in the ordinary course of business to purchase pulpwood , logs and wood chips .

the majority of our other purchase obligations are take-or-pay or purchase commitments made in the ordinary course of business related to raw material purchases and energy contracts .

other significant items include purchase obligations related to contracted services .

transformation plan in july 2005 , the company announced a plan to focus its business portfolio on two key global platform businesses : uncoated papers ( including distribution ) and packaging .

the plan also focuses on improving shareholder return through mill realignments in those two businesses , additional cost improvements and exploring strategic options for other businesses , includ- ing possible sale or spin-off .

in connection with this process , in the third quarter of 2005 , the company completed the sale of its 50.5% ( 50.5 % ) interest in carter holt harvey limited .

other businesses currently under re- view include : 2022 the coated and supercalendered papers busi- ness , including the coated groundwood mill and associated assets in brazil , 2022 the beverage packaging business , including the pine bluff , arkansas mill , 2022 the kraft papers business , including the roa- noke rapids , north carolina mill , 2022 arizona chemical , 2022 the wood products business , and 2022 segments or potentially all of the company 2019s 6.5 million acres of u.s .

consistent with this evaluation process , the com- pany has distributed bid package information for some of these businesses .

the exact timing of this evaluation process will vary by business ; however , it is anticipated that decisions will be made for some of these businesses during 2006 .

while the exact use of any proceeds from potential future sales is dependent upon various factors affecting future cash flows , such as the amount of any proceeds received and changes in market conditions , input costs and capital spending , the company remains committed to using its free cash flow in 2006 to pay down debt , to return value to shareholders , and for se- lective high-return investments .

critical accounting policies the preparation of financial statements in con- formity with generally accepted accounting principles in the united states requires international paper to estab- lish accounting policies and to make estimates that af- fect both the amounts and timing of the recording of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses .

some of these estimates require judgments about matters that are in- herently uncertain .

management's financial discussion and analysis net revenue 2008 compared to 2007 net revenue consists of operating revenues net of : 1 ) fuel , fuel-related expenses , and gas purchased for resale , 2 ) purchased power expenses , and 3 ) other regulatory charges .

following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing 2008 to 2007 .

the volume/weather variance is due to an increase in electricity usage in the service territory in 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 .

entergy new orleans estimates that approximately 141000 electric customers and 93000 gas customers have returned since hurricane katrina and are taking service as of december 31 , 2008 , compared to approximately 132000 electric customers and 86000 gas customers as of december 31 , 2007 .

billed retail electricity usage increased a total of 184 gwh compared to the same period in 2007 , an increase of 4% ( 4 % ) .

the net gas revenue variance is primarily due to an increase in base rates in march and november 2007 .

refer to note 2 to the financial statements for a discussion of the base rate increase .

the rider revenue variance is due primarily to higher total revenue and a storm reserve rider effective march 2007 as a result of the city council's approval of a settlement agreement in october 2006 .

the approved storm reserve has been set to collect $ 75 million over a ten-year period through the rider and the funds will be held in a restricted escrow account .

the settlement agreement is discussed in note 2 to the financial statements .

the base revenue variance is primarily due to a base rate recovery credit , effective january 2008 .

the base rate credit is discussed in note 2 to the financial statements .

gross operating revenues and fuel and purchased power expenses gross operating revenues increased primarily due to : an increase of $ 58.9 million in gross wholesale revenue due to increased sales to affiliated customers and an increase in the average price of energy available for resale sales ; an increase of $ 47.7 million in electric fuel cost recovery revenues due to higher fuel rates and increased electricity usage ; and an increase of $ 22 million in gross gas revenues due to higher fuel recovery revenues and increases in gas base rates in march 2007 and november 2007 .

fuel and purchased power increased primarily due to increases in the average market prices of natural gas and purchased power in addition to an increase in demand. .

liquidity and capital resources we maintained a strong financial position throughout fiscal year 2019 .

as of 30 september 2019 , our consolidated balance sheet included cash and cash items of $ 2248.7 .

we continue to have consistent access to commercial paper markets , and cash flows from operating and financing activities are expected to meet liquidity needs for the foreseeable future .

as of 30 september 2019 , we had $ 971.5 of foreign cash and cash items compared to a total amount of cash and cash items of $ 2248.7 .

as a result of the tax act , we do not expect that a significant portion of our foreign subsidiaries' and affiliates' earnings will be subject to u.s .

income tax upon subsequent repatriation to the united states .

the repatriation of these earnings may be subject to foreign withholding and other taxes depending on the country in which the subsidiaries and affiliates reside .

however , because we have significant current investment plans outside the u.s. , it is our intent to permanently reinvest the majority of our foreign cash and cash items that would be subject to additional taxes outside the u.s .

refer to note 23 , income taxes , for additional information .

the table below summarizes our cash flows from operating activities , investing activities , and financing activities from continuing operations as reflected on the consolidated statements of cash flows: .

operating activities for the fiscal year ended 30 september 2019 , cash provided by operating activities was $ 2969.9 .

income from continuing operations of $ 1760.0 was adjusted for items including depreciation and amortization , deferred income taxes , impacts from the tax act , a charge for the facility closure of one of our customers , undistributed earnings of unconsolidated affiliates , gain on sale of assets and investments , share-based compensation , noncurrent capital lease receivables , and certain other adjustments .

the working capital accounts were a use of cash of $ 25.3 , primarily driven by $ 69.0 from trade receivables and $ 41.8 from payables and accrued liabilities , partially offset by $ 79.8 from other receivables .

the use of cash within "payables and accrued liabilities" was primarily driven by a $ 48.9 decrease in accrued utilities and a $ 30.3 decrease in accrued interest , partially offset by a $ 51.6 increase in customer advances primarily related to sale of equipment activity .

the decrease in accrued utilities was primarily driven by a contract modification to a tolling arrangement in india and lower utility costs in the industrial gases 2013 americas segment .

the source of cash from other receivables of $ 79.8 was primarily due to the maturities of forward exchange contracts that hedged foreign currency exposures and the collection of value added taxes .

for the fiscal year ended 30 september 2018 , cash provided by operating activities was $ 2547.2 , including income from continuing operations of $ 1455.6 .

other adjustments of $ 131.6 include a $ 54.9 net impact from the remeasurement of intercompany transactions .

the related hedging instruments that eliminate the earnings impact are included as a working capital adjustment in other receivables or payables and accrued liabilities .

in addition , other adjustments were impacted by cash received from the early termination of a cross currency swap of $ 54.4 , as well as the excess of pension expense over pension contributions of $ 23.5 .

the working capital accounts were a use of cash of $ 265.4 , primarily driven by payables and accrued liabilities , inventories , and trade receivables , partially offset by other receivables .

the use of cash in payables and accrued liabilities of $ 277.7 includes a decrease in customer advances of $ 145.7 primarily related to sale of equipment activity and $ 67.1 for maturities of forward exchange contracts that hedged foreign currency exposures .

the use of cash in inventories primarily resulted from the purchase of helium molecules .
