Question:
what was the industrial packaging profit margin in 2004


pre_text: reflects the contribution from higher net sales , parti- ally offset by higher input costs for energy , wood and freight .
entering 2007 , earnings in the first quarter are expected to improve compared with the 2006 fourth quarter due primarily to reduced manufacturing costs reflecting the completion of the mill opti- mization project in brazil in the fourth quarter .
sales volumes are expected to be seasonally better in the u.s .
uncoated paper and market pulp businesses , but seasonally weaker in the russian paper business .
average sales price realizations should improve as we continue to implement previously announced price increases in europe and brazil , although u.s .
average price realizations are expected to remain flat .
wood costs are anticipated to be higher due to supply difficulties in the winter months , and energy costs will be mixed .
the first-quarter 2007 acquisition of the luiz antonio mill in brazil will provide incremental earnings .
during 2007 , the pensacola , florida mill will be converted to produce container- board , reducing future u.s .
production capacity for uncoated freesheet paper .
industrial packaging demand for industrial packaging products is closely correlated with non-durable industrial goods pro- duction in the united states , as well as with demand for processed foods , poultry , meat and agricultural products .
in addition to prices and volumes , major factors affecting the profitability of industrial pack- aging are raw material and energy costs , manufacturing efficiency and product mix .
industrial packaging net sales for 2006 increased 6% ( 6 % ) compared with 2005 and 8% ( 8 % ) compared with 2004 .
operating profits in 2006 were 82% ( 82 % ) higher than in 2005 and 7% ( 7 % ) higher than in 2004 .
benefits from improved price realizations ( $ 156 million ) , sales volume increases ( $ 29 million ) , a more favorable mix ( $ 21 million ) , reduced market related downtime ( $ 25 million ) and strong mill performance ( $ 43 million ) were partially offset by the effects of higher raw material costs ( $ 12 million ) , higher freight costs ( $ 48 million ) , higher converting operations costs ( $ 21 mil- lion ) and other costs ( $ 26 million ) .
in addition , a gain of $ 13 million was recognized in 2006 related to a sale of property in spain .
the segment took 135000 tons of downtime in 2006 , none of which was market-related , compared with 370000 tons of downtime in 2005 , which included 230000 tons of lack-of-order downtime .

containerboard net sales for 2006 were $ 955 million , compared with $ 895 million in 2005 and $ 950 million for 2004 .
average sales price realizations in the first quarter of 2006 began the year below first-quarter 2005 levels , but improved sig- nificantly during the second quarter and were higher than in 2005 for the remainder of the year .
sales volumes were higher throughout 2006 .
operating profits in 2006 were more than double 2005 levels , and 68% ( 68 % ) higher than in 2004 .
the favorable impacts of the higher average sales price realizations , higher sales volumes , reduced lack-of-order downtime and strong mill performance were only partially offset by higher input costs for freight , chemicals and energy .
u.s .
converting operations net sales totaled $ 2.8 billion in 2006 , $ 2.6 billion in 2005 and $ 2.3 bil- lion in 2004 .
sales volumes throughout the year in 2006 were above 2005 levels , reflecting solid market demand for boxes and packaging solutions .
in the first two quarters of 2006 , margins were favorable compared with the prior year as average sales prices outpaced containerboard cost increases , but average margins began to decline in the third quarter as containerboard increases outpaced the increase in box prices .
operating profits in 2006 decreased 72% ( 72 % ) from 2005 and 86% ( 86 % ) from 2004 levels , primarily due to higher distribution , utility and raw material costs , and inventory adjustment charges .
european container net sales for 2006 were $ 1.0 billion , compared with $ 883 million in 2005 and $ 865 million in 2004 .
the increase was principally due to contributions from the moroccan box plants acquired in the fourth quarter of 2005 , although sales volumes for the rest of the business were also slightly higher .
operating profits in 2006 were up 31% ( 31 % ) compared with 2005 and 6% ( 6 % ) compared with 2004 .
this increase included a $ 13 million gain on the sale of property in spain as well as the increased contributions from the moroccan acquisition , parti- ally offset by higher energy costs .
international paper distribution lim- ited , our asian box and containerboard business , had net sales for 2006 of $ 182 million .
in 2005 , net sales were $ 104 million subsequent to international paper 2019s acquisition of a majority interest in august 2005 .
this business generated a small operating profit in 2006 , compared with a small loss in 2005. .
