Foreign currency derivatives<br />
The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is calculated<br />
on the basis of the average spot foreign currency rates applicable<br />
as of the balance-sheet date, adjusted for time-related premiums<br />
or discounts for the respective remaining term of the contract,<br />
compared to the contracted forward rate.<br />
The fair value of a foreign currency option is determined using<br />
generally accepted option pricing models. The fair value of an<br />
option is influenced not only by the remaining term of the option<br />
but also by further determining factors, such as the actual value<br />
<strong>and</strong> volatility of the foreign currency or the implied interest rate<br />
levels.<br />
Interest rate derivatives<br />
The fair value of interest-rate swaps is measured by discounting<br />
the anticipated future cash flows. For this purpose, the market<br />
interest rates applicable for the remaining term of the contracts<br />
are used as a basis.<br />
The fair value of cross-currency swaps is determined analogously<br />
to the fair value of interest rate swaps by discounting the future<br />
cash flows resulting from the contracts. Besides the interest rate<br />
applicable as of the balance sheet date, the valuation considers<br />
exchange rates for all foreign currencies in which cash flows take<br />
place.<br />
Commodity derivatives<br />
The fair value of commodity derivatives is based on officially quoted<br />
prices <strong>and</strong> external valuations of these instruments by our financial<br />
partners at the balance sheet date. It represents the estimated<br />
amounts that the company would expect to receive or pay to<br />
terminate the agreements as of the reporting date.<br />
NOTES ON THE INCOME STATEMENT<br />
15 NET INCOME FROM INVESTMENTS<br />
million €<br />
Income from profit-<strong>and</strong>-loss transfer agreements<br />
Expense from profit-<strong>and</strong>-loss transfer agreements<br />
Income from investee companies<br />
amount thereof from affiliated companies<br />
Total<br />
The income from profit-<strong>and</strong>-loss transfer agreements <strong>and</strong> the<br />
expense from loss transfers stem from affiliated companies.<br />
In fiscal year <strong>2005</strong>/<strong>2006</strong>, income from profit-<strong>and</strong>-loss transfer<br />
agreements decreased because in the previous year the earnings<br />
of ThyssenKrupp Real Estate GmbH from the sale of the residential<br />
real estate activities were included. In fiscal year <strong>2005</strong>/<strong>2006</strong><br />
Thyssen Stahl GmbH <strong>and</strong> ThyssenKrupp Dienstleistungen GmbH<br />
made the greatest impact on net income from investments. The<br />
income from Thyssen Stahl GmbH mainly reflects the positive<br />
business performance at ThyssenKrupp Steel Beteiligungen<br />
GmbH (formerly ThyssenKrupp Steel ag). The utilization of the<br />
provision recognized in 2004/<strong>2005</strong> at ThyssenKrupp ag for<br />
valuation risks in connection with pension benefits <strong>and</strong> pension<br />
obligations at subsidiary companies resulted in an increase in<br />
profit (see Note 9).<br />
The expense from loss transfers relates mainly to ThyssenKrupp<br />
Automotive ag <strong>and</strong> ThyssenKrupp Technologies ag.<br />
Income from investee companies increased from the previous<br />
year mainly due to a dividend distribution by Krupp Hoesch Stahl<br />
GmbH <strong>and</strong> the collection of dividend payments from the foreign<br />
national holding companies.<br />

The increase in other operating income against the previous year<br />
mainly reflects tax allocations of Group subsidiaries in the amount<br />
of €20.5 million. The absence of income from real estate sales of<br />
€19.6 million recognized in the previous year had the opposite<br />
effect.
