0.05556 | Context:the analysis of our depreciation studies . changes in the estimated service lives of our assets and their related depreciation rates are implemented prospectively . under group depreciation , the historical cost ( net of salvage ) of depreciable property that is retired or replaced in the ordinary course of business is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized . the historical cost of certain track assets is estimated using ( i ) inflation indices published by the bureau of labor statistics and ( ii ) the estimated useful lives of the assets as determined by our depreciation studies . the indices were selected because they closely correlate with the major costs of the properties comprising the applicable track asset classes . because of the number of estimates inherent in the depreciation and retirement processes and because it is impossible to precisely estimate each of these variables until a group of property is completely retired , we continually monitor the estimated service lives of our assets and the accumulated depreciation associated with each asset class to ensure our depreciation rates are appropriate . in addition , we determine if the recorded amount of accumulated depreciation is deficient ( or in excess ) of the amount indicated by our depreciation studies . any deficiency ( or excess ) is amortized as a component of depreciation expense over the remaining service lives of the applicable classes of assets . for retirements of depreciable railroad properties that do not occur in the normal course of business , a gain or loss may be recognized if the retirement meets each of the following three conditions : ( i ) is unusual , ( ii ) is material in amount , and ( iii ) varies significantly from the retirement profile identified through our depreciation studies . a gain or loss is recognized in other income when we sell land or dispose of assets that are not part of our railroad operations . when we purchase an asset , we capitalize all costs necessary to make the asset ready for its intended use . however , many of our assets are self-constructed . a large portion of our capital expenditures is for replacement of existing track assets and other road properties , which is typically performed by our employees , and for track line expansion and other capacity projects . costs that are directly attributable to capital projects ( including overhead costs ) are capitalized . direct costs that are capitalized as part of self- constructed assets include material , labor , and work equipment . indirect costs are capitalized if they clearly relate to the construction of the asset . general and administrative expenditures are expensed as incurred . normal repairs and maintenance , including rail grinding , are also expensed as incurred , while costs incurred that extend the useful life of an asset , improve the safety of our operations or improve operating efficiency are capitalized . these costs are allocated using appropriate statistical bases . total expense for repairs and maintenance incurred was $ 2.1 billion for 2012 , $ 2.2 billion for 2011 , and $ 2.0 billion for 2010 . assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease . amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease . 12 . accounts payable and other current liabilities dec . 31 , dec . 31 , millions 2012 2011 .

agricultural products 2013 higher volume , fuel surcharges , and price improvements increased agricultural freight revenue in 2010 versus 2009 . increased shipments from the midwest to export ports in the pacific northwest combined with heightened demand in mexico drove higher corn and feed grain shipments in 2010 . increased corn and feed grain shipments into ethanol plants in california and idaho and continued growth in ethanol shipments also contributed to this increase . in 2009 , some ethanol plants temporarily ceased operations due to lower ethanol margins , which contributed to the favorable year-over-year comparison . in addition , strong export demand for u.s . wheat via the gulf ports increased shipments of wheat and food grains compared to 2009 . declines in domestic wheat and food shipments partially offset the growth in export shipments . new business in feed and animal protein shipments also increased agricultural shipments in 2010 compared to 2009 . lower volume and fuel surcharges decreased agricultural freight revenue in 2009 versus 2008 . price improvements partially offset these declines . lower demand in both export and domestic markets led to fewer shipments of corn and feed grains , down 11% ( 11 % ) in 2009 compared to 2008 . weaker worldwide demand also reduced export shipments of wheat and food grains in 2009 versus 2008 . automotive 2013 37% ( 37 % ) and 24% ( 24 % ) increases in shipments of finished vehicles and automotive parts in 2010 , respectively , combined with core pricing gains and fuel surcharges , improved automotive freight revenue from relatively weak 2009 levels . economic conditions in 2009 led to poor auto sales and reduced vehicle production , which in turn reduced shipments of finished vehicles and parts during the declines in shipments of finished vehicles and auto parts and lower fuel surcharges reduced freight revenue in 2009 compared to 2008 . vehicle shipments were down 35% ( 35 % ) and parts were down 24% ( 24 % ) . core pricing gains partially offset these declines . these volume declines resulted from economic conditions that reduced sales and vehicle production . in addition , two major domestic automotive manufacturers declared bankruptcy in the second quarter of 2009 , affecting production levels . although the federal car allowance rebate system ( the 201ccash for clunkers 201d program ) helped stimulate vehicle sales and shipments in the third quarter of 2009 , production cuts and soft demand throughout the year more than offset the program 2019s benefits . 2010 agricultural revenue 2010 automotive revenue .

( upri ) , a bankruptcy-remote subsidiary , as part of a sale of receivables facility . upri sells , without recourse on a 364-day revolving basis , an undivided interest in such accounts receivable to investors . the total capacity to sell undivided interests to investors under the facility was $ 600 million and $ 700 million at december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors under the facility was $ 400 million and $ 584 million at december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . during 2009 , upri reduced the outstanding undivided interest held by investors due to a decrease in available receivables . the value of the undivided interest held by investors is not included in our consolidated financial statements . the value of the undivided interest held by investors was supported by $ 817 million and $ 1015 million of accounts receivable held by upri at december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . at december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , the value of the interest retained by upri was $ 417 million and $ 431 million , respectively . this retained interest is included in accounts receivable in our consolidated financial statements . the interest sold to investors is sold at carrying value , which approximates fair value , and there is no gain or loss recognized from the transaction . the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors could fluctuate based upon the availability of eligible receivables and is directly affected by changing business volumes and credit risks , including default and dilution . if default or dilution ratios increase one percent , the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors would not change as of december 31 , 2009 . should our credit rating fall below investment grade , the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors would be reduced , and , in certain cases , the investors would have the right to discontinue the facility . the railroad services the sold receivables ; however , the railroad does not recognize any servicing asset or liability , as the servicing fees adequately compensate us for these responsibilities . the railroad collected approximately $ 13.8 billion and $ 17.8 billion during the years ended december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . upri used certain of these proceeds to purchase new receivables under the facility . the costs of the sale of receivables program are included in other income and were $ 9 million , $ 23 million , and $ 35 million for 2009 , 2008 , and 2007 , respectively . the costs include interest , which will vary based on prevailing commercial paper rates , program fees paid to banks , commercial paper issuing costs , and fees for unused commitment availability . the decrease in the 2009 costs was primarily attributable to lower commercial paper rates and a decrease in the outstanding interest held by investors. .

0.09524 | Context:the analysis of our depreciation studies . changes in the estimated service lives of our assets and their related depreciation rates are implemented prospectively . under group depreciation , the historical cost ( net of salvage ) of depreciable property that is retired or replaced in the ordinary course of business is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized . the historical cost of certain track assets is estimated using ( i ) inflation indices published by the bureau of labor statistics and ( ii ) the estimated useful lives of the assets as determined by our depreciation studies . the indices were selected because they closely correlate with the major costs of the properties comprising the applicable track asset classes . because of the number of estimates inherent in the depreciation and retirement processes and because it is impossible to precisely estimate each of these variables until a group of property is completely retired , we continually monitor the estimated service lives of our assets and the accumulated depreciation associated with each asset class to ensure our depreciation rates are appropriate . in addition , we determine if the recorded amount of accumulated depreciation is deficient ( or in excess ) of the amount indicated by our depreciation studies . any deficiency ( or excess ) is amortized as a component of depreciation expense over the remaining service lives of the applicable classes of assets . for retirements of depreciable railroad properties that do not occur in the normal course of business , a gain or loss may be recognized if the retirement meets each of the following three conditions : ( i ) is unusual , ( ii ) is material in amount , and ( iii ) varies significantly from the retirement profile identified through our depreciation studies . a gain or loss is recognized in other income when we sell land or dispose of assets that are not part of our railroad operations . when we purchase an asset , we capitalize all costs necessary to make the asset ready for its intended use . however , many of our assets are self-constructed . a large portion of our capital expenditures is for replacement of existing track assets and other road properties , which is typically performed by our employees , and for track line expansion and other capacity projects . costs that are directly attributable to capital projects ( including overhead costs ) are capitalized . direct costs that are capitalized as part of self- constructed assets include material , labor , and work equipment . indirect costs are capitalized if they clearly relate to the construction of the asset . general and administrative expenditures are expensed as incurred . normal repairs and maintenance are also expensed as incurred , while costs incurred that extend the useful life of an asset , improve the safety of our operations or improve operating efficiency are capitalized . these costs are allocated using appropriate statistical bases . total expense for repairs and maintenance incurred was $ 2.3 billion for 2013 , $ 2.1 billion for 2012 , and $ 2.2 billion for 2011 . assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease . amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease . 12 . accounts payable and other current liabilities dec . 31 , dec . 31 , millions 2013 2012 .

cercla ) . many of these proceedings involve the cleanup of hazardous substances at large commercial landfills that received waste from many different sources . while joint and several liability is authorized under cercla and equivalent state laws , as a practical matter , liability for cercla cleanups is typically allocated among the many potential responsible parties . remedial costs are recorded in the consolidated financial statements when they become probable and reasonably estimable . international paper has estimated the probable liability associated with these matters to be approximately $ 94 million in the aggregate at december 31 , 2013 . cass lake : one of the matters referenced above is a closed wood treating facility located in cass lake , minnesota . during 2009 , in connection with an environmental site remediation action under cercla , international paper submitted to the epa a site remediation feasibility study . in june 2011 , the epa selected and published a proposed soil remedy at the site with an estimated cost of $ 46 million . the overall remediation reserve for the site is currently $ 51 million to address this selection of an alternative for the soil remediation component of the overall site remedy . in october 2011 , the epa released a public statement indicating that the final soil remedy decision would be delayed . in the unlikely event that the epa changes its proposed soil remedy and approves instead a more expensive clean-up alternative , the remediation costs could be material , and significantly higher than amounts currently recorded . in october 2012 , the natural resource trustees for this site provided notice to international paper and other potentially responsible parties of their intent to perform a natural resource damage assessment . it is premature to predict the outcome of the assessment or to estimate a loss or range of loss , if any , which may be incurred . other : in addition to the above matters , other remediation costs typically associated with the cleanup of hazardous substances at the company 2019s current , closed or formerly-owned facilities , and recorded as liabilities in the balance sheet ,

and continues to collect information from the epa and other parties relative to the site to evaluate the extent of its liability , if any , with respect to the site . accordingly , it is premature to estimate a loss or range of loss with respect to this site . also in connection with the kalamazoo river superfund site , the company was named as a defendant by georgia-pacific consumer products lp , fort james corporation and georgia pacific llc in a contribution and cost recovery action for alleged pollution at the site . the suit seeks contribution under cercla for $ 79 million in costs
