Notes on financial statements34. Finance debt continuedFair valuesThe estimated fair value of finance debt is shown in the table below together with the carrying amount as reflected in the balance sheet.Long-term borrowings in the table below include the portion of debt that matures in the year from 31 December <strong>20</strong>11, whereas in the balancesheet the amount would be reported within current finance debt. The disposal deposits noted above are excluded from this analysis.The carrying amount of the group’s short-term borrowings, comprising mainly commercial paper, approximates their fair value. The fair value ofthe group’s long-term borrowings <strong>and</strong> finance lease obligations is estimated using quoted prices or, where these are not available, discounted cash flowanalyses based on the group’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types <strong>and</strong> maturities of borrowing.$ million<strong>20</strong>11 <strong>20</strong>10Fair valueCarryingamount Fair value Carrying amountShort-term borrowings 3,800 3,800 1,453 1,453Long-term borrowings 40,606 39,691 37,258 36,876Net obligations under finance leases 776 692 928 810Total finance debt 45,182 44,183 39,639 39,13935. Capital disclosures <strong>and</strong> analysis of changes in net debtThe group defines capital as total equity. The group’s approach to managing capital is set out in its financial framework which <strong>BP</strong> continues to refine tosupport the pursuit of value growth for shareholders, while maintaining a secure financial base. We intend to maintain a significant liquidity buffer <strong>and</strong> toreduce our net debt ratio to the lower half of the 10-<strong>20</strong>% gearing range over time as our disposal programme progresses.The group monitors capital on the basis of the net debt ratio, that is, the ratio of net debt to net debt plus equity. Net debt is calculated as grossfinance debt, as shown in the balance sheet, plus the fair value of associated derivative financial instruments that are used to hedge foreign exchange<strong>and</strong> interest rate risks relating to finance debt, for which hedge accounting is applied, less cash <strong>and</strong> cash equivalents. Net debt <strong>and</strong> net debt ratio arenon-GAAP measures. <strong>BP</strong> believes these measures provide useful information to investors. Net debt enables investors to see the economic effect ofgross debt, related hedges <strong>and</strong> cash <strong>and</strong> cash equivalents in total. The net debt ratio enables investors to see how significant net debt is relative to equityfrom shareholders. The derivatives are reported on the balance sheet within the headings ‘Derivative financial instruments’. All components of equity areincluded in the denominator of the calculation. At 31 December <strong>20</strong>11 the net debt ratio was <strong>20</strong>.5% (<strong>20</strong>10 21.2%).During <strong>20</strong>11 <strong>and</strong> <strong>20</strong>10, the company did not repurchase any of its own shares, other than to satisfy the requirements of certain employeeshare‐based payment plans.http://www.bp.com/downloads/changesinnetdebt$ millionAt 31 December <strong>20</strong>11 <strong>20</strong>10Gross debt 44,213 45,336Less: Cash <strong>and</strong> cash equivalents 14,067 18,556Less: Fair value asset of hedges related to finance debt 1,133 916Net debt 29,013 25,864Equity 112,482 95,891Net debt ratio <strong>20</strong>.5% 21.2%An analysis of changes in net debt is provided below.Cash <strong>and</strong>cashequivalents$ million<strong>20</strong>11 <strong>20</strong>10Cash <strong>and</strong>cashequivalentsMovement in net debtFinancedebt aNetdebtFinancedebt aNetdebtAt 1 January (44,4<strong>20</strong>) 18,556 (25,864) (34,500) 8,339 (26,161)Exchange adjustments 30 (492) (462) 194 (279) (85)Net cash flow (4,725) (3,997) (8,722) (3,613) 10,496 6,883Movement in finance debt relating to investing activities b 6,167 – 6,167 (6,197) – (6,197)Other movements (132) – (132) (304) – (304)At 31 December (43,080) 14,067 (29,013) (44,4<strong>20</strong>) 18,556 (25,864)aIncluding fair value of associated derivative financial instruments.bSee Note 34 for further information.230 <strong>BP</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Form</strong> <strong>20</strong>-F <strong>20</strong>11

The provision for the costs of decommissioning these wells, production facilities <strong>and</strong> pipelines at the end of their economic lives has beenestimated using existing technology, at current prices or future assumptions, depending on the expected timing of the activity, <strong>and</strong> discounted using a realdiscount rate of 0.5% (<strong>20</strong>10 1.5%). These costs are generally expected to be incurred over the next 30 years. While the provision is based on the bestestimate of future costs <strong>and</strong> the economic lives of the facilities <strong>and</strong> pipelines, there is uncertainty regarding both the amount <strong>and</strong> timing of these costs.Provisions for environmental remediation are made when a clean-up is probable <strong>and</strong> the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.Generally, this coincides with commitment to a formal plan of action or, if earlier, on divestment or on closure of inactive sites. The provision forenvironmental liabilities has been estimated using existing technology, at current prices <strong>and</strong> discounted using a real discount rate of 0.5% (<strong>20</strong>10 1.5%).The majority of these costs are expected to be incurred over the next 10 years. The extent <strong>and</strong> cost of future remediation programmes are inherentlydifficult to estimate. They depend on the scale of any possible contamination, the timing <strong>and</strong> extent of corrective actions, <strong>and</strong> also the group’s share ofthe liability.The litigation category includes provisions for matters related to, for example, commercial disputes, product liability, <strong>and</strong> allegations of exposuresof third parties to toxic substances. Included within the other category at 31 December <strong>20</strong>11 are provisions for deferred employee compensation of$666 million (<strong>20</strong>10 $728 million). These provisions are discounted using either a nominal discount rate of 2.5% (<strong>20</strong>10 3.75%) or a real discount rate of0.5% (<strong>20</strong>10 1.5%), as appropriate.Provisions relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spillThe Gulf of Mexico oil spill is described on pages 76 to 79 <strong>and</strong> in Note 2.
