The Group’s investments in listed equity securities are designated as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. Investments are initially measured at fair value net of transaction costs and, in subsequent periods, are measured at fair value with any change recognised in other comprehensive income. Upon disposal, the cumulative gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is transferred to retained earnings. Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control over the financial and operating policies. Investments in associates are initially recognised at cost including transaction costs and are accounted for using the equity method by including the Group’s share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of associates in the carrying amount of the investment until the date on which significant influence ceases. Dividends received reduce the carrying amount of the investment in associates.65 66Table:67 | 2019 | 201868 | $M | $M 69Current | | 70Derivatives | 45 | 53 71Total current other financial assets | 45 | 53 72Non‑current | | 73Derivatives | 501 | 366 74Listed equity securities | 91 | 96 75Investments in associates | 59 | 57 76Loans provided to related parties | 41 | 3 77Total non‑current other financial assets | 692 | 522 78Total other financial assets | 737 | 575 79Current | | 80Derivatives | 58 | 50 81Total current other financial liabilities | 58 | 50 82Non‑current | | 83Derivatives | 24 | 61 84Total non‑current other financial liabilities | 24 | 61 85Total other financial liabilities | 82 | 111 86 87 88 89Question: Analyse this data from a financial earnings document.

between 3% ( 3 % ) and 5% ( 5 % ) , assuming that all currencies are impacted in the same manner and our international revenue and expenses remain constant at 2012 levels . the functional currency of our foreign operations is generally their respective local currency . assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date , and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period presented . the resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss , net of tax , in the stockholders 2019 equity section of our consolidated balance sheets . our foreign subsidiaries generally collect revenues and pay expenses in their functional currency , mitigating transaction risk . however , certain subsidiaries may enter into transactions in currencies other than their functional currency . assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are susceptible to movements in foreign currency until final settlement . currency transaction gains or losses primarily arising from transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are included in office and general expenses . we have not entered into a material amount of foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of potential adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. .380 381Question: Analyse this data from a financial earnings document. what was the total amount of interest income combined in 2011

a combined ratio above 100.0 demonstrates underwriting losses . the combined ratio has decreased from 2003 to 2004 primarily because of improvement in the expense ratio . the combined ratio in 2005 could be significantly higher or lower than the 2004 combined ratio depending on the level of catastrophe losses , but will also be impacted by changes in pricing and an expected moderation in favorable loss cost trends . catastrophe ratio : the catastrophe ratio ( a component of the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio ) represents the ratio of catastrophe losses ( net of reinsurance ) to earned premiums . a catastrophe is an event that causes $ 25 or more in industry insured property losses and affects a significant number of property and casualty policyholders and insurers . by their nature , catastrophe losses vary dramatically from year to year . based on the mix and geographic dispersion of premium written and estimates derived from various catastrophe loss models , the company 2019s expected catastrophe ratio over the long-term is 3.0 points . before considering the reduction in ongoing operation 2019s catastrophe reserves related to september 11 of $ 298 in 2004 , the catastrophe ratio in 2004 was 5.3 points . see 201crisk management strategy 201d below for a discussion of the company 2019s property catastrophe risk management program that serves to mitigate the company 2019s net exposure to catastrophe losses . combined ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development : the combined ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development represents the combined ratio for the current accident year , excluding the impact of catastrophes . the company believes this ratio is an important measure of the trend in profitability since it removes the impact of volatile and unpredictable catastrophe losses and prior accident year reserve development . before considering catastrophes , the combined ratio related to current accident year business has improved from 2002 to 2004 principally due to earned pricing increases and favorable claim frequency . other operations underwriting results : the other operations segment is responsible for managing operations of the hartford that have discontinued writing new or renewal business as well as managing the claims related to asbestos and environmental exposures . as such , neither earned premiums nor underwriting ratios are meaningful financial measures . instead , management believes that underwriting result is a more meaningful measure . the net underwriting loss for 2002 through 2004 is primarily due to prior accident year loss development , including $ 2.6 billion of net asbestos reserve strengthening in 2003 . reserve estimates within other operations , including estimates for asbestos and environmental claims , are inherently uncertain . refer to the other operations segment md&a for further discussion of other operation's underwriting results . total property & casualty investment earnings .389 390Table:391 | 2004 | 2003 | 2002 392Investment yield, after-tax | 4.1% | 4.2% | 4.5% 393Net realized capital gains (losses), after-tax | $87 | $165 | $(44)394 395the investment return , or yield , on property & casualty 2019s invested assets is an important element of the company 2019s earnings since insurance products are priced with the assumption that premiums received can be invested for a period of time before loss and loss adjustment expenses are paid . for longer tail lines , such as workers 2019 compensation and general liability , claims are paid over several years and , therefore , the premiums received for these lines of business can generate significant investment income . him determines the appropriate allocation of investments by asset class and measures the investment yield performance for each asset class against market indices or other benchmarks . due to the emphasis on preservation of capital and the need to maintain sufficient liquidity to satisfy claim obligations , the vast majority of property and casualty 2019s invested assets have been held in fixed maturities , including , among other asset classes , corporate bonds , municipal bonds , government debt , short-term debt , mortgage- .396 397Question: Analyse this data from a financial earnings document. what is the total net realized gain for the last three years?398Choices: 208.0, 227, 77, -208, 43399Steps to Follow 400 1.

adoption of IFRS 15. See Note 2 for further details. The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) enacted on December 22, 2017 introduces a number of changes to U.S. income tax law. Among other changes, the Tax Act (i) reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, (ii) enacts limitations regarding the deductibility of interest expense, (iii) modifies the provisions relating to the limitations on deductions for executive compensation of publicly traded corporations, (iv) imposes new limitations on the utilization of net operating loss arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, (v) repeals the corporate alternative minimum tax and provides for a refund of existing alternative minimum tax credits, and (vi) creates new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings and certain related-party payments, which are referred to as the global intangible low-taxed income tax and the base erosion tax, respectively. As a result of the new U.S. federal statutory corporate tax rate of 21% contained within the Tax Act, the Group recorded non-cash charges of $16.9 million to tax expense and $16.9 million to equity to revalue the Group’s U.S. net deferred tax assets during fiscal year 2018. In June 2019 and December 2017, as a result of the Group’s assessment of the realizability of its Australian and U.S. deferred tax assets, the Group recorded non-cash charges to tax expense of $54.7 million and $30.4 million, respectively, and $25.8 million to equity in December 2017 to reduce the carrying value of these assets. The assessment of the realizability of the Australian and U.S. deferred tax assets is based on all available positive and negative evidence. Such evidence includes, but is not limited to, recent cumulative earnings or losses, expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdiction, and the carry-forward periods available for the utilization of deferred tax assets. The Group will continue to assess and record any necessary changes to align its deferred tax assets to their realizable value. In December 2017, the Group made changes to its corporate structure to include certain foreign subsidiaries in its U.S. consolidated tax group that resulted in the creation of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities, including a non-recognized deferred tax asset of $2.1 billion related to the fair market value of its intellectual property. The assets are included in the Group’s quarterly assessment and are only recognized to the extent they are determined to be realizable. The impact on the net deferred tax asset from business combinations of $19.1 million in fiscal year 2019 represents the net deferred tax assets and liabilities recognized as a result of the acquisition of OpsGenie. The Group acquired net operating loss carryforward deferred tax assets of approximately $1.8 million from OpsGenie. The Group also recognized deferred tax liabilities of approximately $19.6 million primarily related to acquired intangibles from OpsGenie, the amortization of which will not be deductible from future taxable profits.477 478Table:479 | 2019 | 2018 480 | (U.S. $ in thousands) | 481 | | *As Adjusted482Reconciliation of deferred tax assets, net | | 483Balance at the beginning of | $47,060 | $140,532 484Deferred tax expense for the year | (15,916) | (53,297) 485Debited to equity | (8,884) | (40,092) 486Adjustment in respect of income tax payable | — | (83) 487Impact from business combinations | (19,092) | — 488Currency revaluation impact | 44 | — 489Balance at the ending of | $3,212 | $47,060 490 491 492 493Question: Analyse this data from a financial earnings document.

Inventories Inventories consisted of the following: The increase in live inventories is attributable to an increase in the quantity of live birds in inventory at the Company's Tyler, Texas facility as it increased production during fiscal 2019, as well as the value at which the Company's live poultry inventories of broilers are recorded. In periods where the Company estimates that the cost to grow live birds in inventory to a marketable age and then process and distribute those birds will be lower in the aggregate than the anticipated sales proceeds, the Company values the broiler inventories on hand at cost and accumulates costs as the birds are grown to a marketable age subsequent to the balance sheet date. In periods where the Company estimates that the cost to grow live birds in inventory to a marketable age and then process and distribute those birds will be higher in the aggregate than the anticipated sales proceeds, the Company will make an adjustment to lower the value of live birds in inventory to the net realizable value. The significant judgments that management makes in order to assess the net realizable value of its broiler inventory include estimating future selling prices of finished products and the related cost of sales to complete. The Company recorded a charge of $2.8 million at October 31, 2019 and of $9.6 million at October 31, 2018 to reduce the values of live broiler inventories on hand at those dates from cost to net realizable value. The increases in feed, eggs and other, processed poultry and packaging materials inventories are also attributable to an increase in the inventory volume at the Tyler, Texas facility. The increase in prepared chicken inventory is attributable to the mix of the different finished products in inventory at October 31, 2019, as compared to October 31, 2018, as well as an increase in production volume at the Company's prepared chicken facility in Flowood, Mississippi. During fiscal 2019, the facility processed approximately 129.1 million pounds of prepared chicken products, as compared to approximately 107.6 million pounds during fiscal 2018.

and extraction assets are located near fort mcmurray , alberta and include the muskeg river and the jackpine mines . gross design capacity of the combined mines is 255000 ( 51000 net to our interest ) barrels of bitumen per day . the aosp operations use established processes to mine oil sands deposits from an open-pit mine , extract the bitumen and upgrade it into synthetic crude oils . ore is mined using traditional truck and shovel mining techniques . the mined ore passes through primary crushers to reduce the ore chunks in size and is then sent to rotary breakers where the ore chunks are further reduced to smaller particles . the particles are combined with hot water to create slurry . the slurry moves through the extraction process where it separates into sand , clay and bitumen-rich froth . a solvent is added to the bitumen froth to separate out the remaining solids , water and heavy asphaltenes . the solvent washes the sand and produces clean bitumen that is required for the upgrader to run efficiently . the process yields a mixture of solvent and bitumen which is then transported from the mine to the scotford upgrader via the approximately 300-mile corridor pipeline . the aosp's scotford upgrader is at fort saskatchewan , northeast of edmonton , alberta . the bitumen is upgraded at scotford using both hydrotreating and hydroconversion processes to remove sulfur and break the heavy bitumen molecules into lighter products . blendstocks acquired from outside sources are utilized in the production of our saleable products . the upgrader produces synthetic crude oils

corrective action ( 201cpca 201d ) requirements of the fdic improvement act ( 201cfdicia 201d ) . the tier i common equity standard is effective from the first quarter of 2015 . the following chart presents the basel iii minimum risk-based capital ratios during the transitional periods and on a fully phased-in basis . the chart also includes management 2019s target for the firm 2019s tier 1 common ratio . it is the firm 2019s current expectation that its basel iii tier 1 common ratio will exceed the regulatory minimums , both during the transition period and upon full implementation in 2019 and thereafter . the firm estimates that its tier 1 common ratio under the basel iii advanced approach on a fully phased-in basis would be 9.5% ( 9.5 % ) as of december 31 , 2013 , achieving management 2019s previously stated objectives . the tier 1 common ratio as calculated under the basel iii standardized approach is estimated at 9.4% ( 9.4 % ) as of december 31 , 2013 . the tier 1 common ratio under both basel i and basel iii are non-gaap financial measures . however , such measures are used by bank regulators , investors and analysts to assess the firm 2019s capital position and to compare the firm 2019s capital to that of other financial services companies . the following table presents a comparison of the firm 2019s tier 1 common under basel i rules to its estimated tier 1 common under the advanced approach of the basel iii rules , along with the firm 2019s estimated risk-weighted assets . key differences in the calculation of rwa between basel i and basel iii advanced approach include : ( 1 ) basel iii credit risk rwa is based on risk-sensitive approaches which largely rely on the use of internal credit models and parameters , whereas basel i rwa is based on fixed supervisory risk- weightings which vary only by counterparty type and asset class ; and ( 2 ) basel iii includes rwa for operational risk , whereas basel i does not . operational risk capital takes into consideration operational losses in the quarter following the period in which those losses were realized , and the calculation generally incorporates such losses irrespective of whether the issues or business activity giving rise to the losses have been remediated or reduced . the firm 2019s operational risk capital model continues to be refined in conjunction with the firm 2019s basel iii advanced approach parallel run . as a result of model enhancements in 2013 , as well as taking into consideration the legal expenses incurred by the firm in 2013 , the firm 2019s operational risk capital increased substantially in 2013 over 2012 . tier 1 common under basel iii includes additional adjustments and deductions not included in basel i tier 1 common , such as the inclusion of

The following common equivalent shares were excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive: In connection with the issuance of the 2024 Notes in December 2019, the Company paid $44.9 million to enter into capped call option agreements to reduce the potential dilution to holders of the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the 2024 Notes. In connection with the issuance of the 2022 Notes in November 2017, the Company paid $12.9 million to enter into capped call option agreements to reduce the potential dilution to holders of the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the 2022 Notes. In December 2019, the Company partially terminated capped call options related to the 2022 Notes and received $5.8 million. The capped call option agreements are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their effect is antidilutive.1140 1141Table:1142 | | Year Ended December 31, | 1143 | 2019 | 2018 | 2017 1144Convertible senior notes | 6,733,914 | 3,411,199 | 3,411,1991145Stock-based compensation grants | 2,038,174 | 2,562,274 | 3,268,6101146Total | 8,772,088 | 5,973,473 | 6,679,8091147 1148 1149 1150Question: Analyse this data from a financial earnings document.
