attributable to favorable Effective Net Pricing. Labor cost<br />

increases, primarily driven by higher wage rates, were almost<br />

fully offset by lower food and paper costs as improved product<br />

cost management resulted in lower overall beverage and<br />

distribution costs. The improvement also included approximately<br />

15 basis points from retroactive beverage rebates<br />

related to 1998 recognized in 1999. In addition, an increase<br />

in favorable insurance-related adjustments over 1998 contributed<br />

approximately 10 basis points to our improvement.<br />

See Note 21 for additional information regarding our insurance-related<br />

adjustments. All of these improvements were<br />

partially offset by volume declines at Taco Bell and the unfavorable<br />

impact of the introduction of lower margin chicken<br />

sandwiches at KFC.<br />

U.S. Ongoing Operating Profit<br />

Ongoing operating profit declined $71 million or 9% in<br />

<strong>2000</strong>. Excluding the negative impact of the Portfolio Effect<br />

and the favorable impact from the fifty-third week in <strong>2000</strong>,<br />

ongoing operating profit decreased approximately 6%. The<br />

decrease was primarily due to a 100 basis point decline in<br />

base restaurant margin and lower franchise and license fees<br />

(excluding the Portfolio Effect), partially offset by reduced<br />

G&A. The decrease in G&A was largely due to lower incentive<br />

compensation, decreased professional fees and lower spending<br />

at Pizza Hut and Taco Bell on conferences. The G&A declines<br />

were partially offset by higher franchise-related expenses,<br />

primarily allowances for doubtful franchise and license fee<br />

receivables, as more fully discussed in the Franchisee Financial<br />

Condition section.<br />

In 1999, ongoing operating profit increased $73 million or<br />

10%. Excluding the negative impact of the Portfolio Effect,<br />

ongoing operating profit increased 15%. The increase was due<br />

to base restaurant margin improvement of 140 basis points<br />

and higher franchise fees primarily from new unit development,<br />

partially offset by higher G&A, net of field G&A savings from<br />

the Portfolio Effect. This increase in G&A was largely due to<br />

higher spending on conferences at Pizza Hut and Taco Bell.<br />
