Other financial assets and liabilities consists of derivatives, the Group’s holdings in listed and unlisted investments, and loans provided to related parties.
The Group’s investments in listed equity securities are designated as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. Investments are initially measured at fair value net of transaction costs and, in subsequent periods, are measured at fair value with any change recognised in other comprehensive income. Upon disposal, the cumulative gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is transferred to retained earnings.
Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control over the financial and operating policies. Investments in associates are initially recognised at cost including transaction costs and are accounted for using the equity method by including the Group’s share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of associates in the carrying amount of the investment until the date on which significant influence ceases. Dividends received reduce the carrying amount of the investment in associates.

Capital management
The following table summarises the capital of the Group at 31 March:
Note: 1 Financial liabilities under put option arrangements comprise liabilities for payments due to holders of the equity shares in Kabel Deutschland AG under the terms of a domination and profit and loss transfer agreement; the amounts at 31 March 2018 were previously presented within short-term borrowings
The Group’s policy is to borrow centrally using a mixture of long-term and short-term capital market issues and borrowing facilities to meet anticipated funding requirements. These borrowings, together with cash generated from operations, are loaned internally or contributed as equity to certain subsidiaries. The Board has approved three internal debt protection ratios being: net interest to operating cash flow (plus dividends from associates); retained cash flow (operating cash flow plus dividends from associates less interest, tax, dividends to non-controlling shareholders and equity dividends) to net debt; and operating cash flow (plus dividends from associates) to net debt. These internal ratios establish levels of debt that the Group should not exceed other than for relatively short periods of time and are shared with the Group’s debt rating agencies being Moody’s, Fitch Ratings and Standard & Poor’s.

18. Commitments
The Group leases various offices in locations such as Amsterdam, the Netherlands; the San Francisco Bay Area, California, New York, New York, Austin, Texas, and Boston, Massachusetts, United States; Sydney, Australia; Manila, the Philippines; Bengaluru, India; Yokohama, Japan; and Ankara, Turkey under non-cancellable operating leases expiring within one to nine years.

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options and stock awards.
* Includes a charge of $2.0 billion or $2.23 of basic and diluted earnings per share in 2018 associated with U.S. tax reform.
Actual shares outstanding at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were 887.1 million and 892.5 million, respectively. The year-to- year decrease was primarily the result of the common stock repurchase program. The average number of common shares
outstanding assuming dilution was 23.5 million shares lower in 2019 versus 2018

Answer: -23.5
Calculation: 892.8 - 916.3
Cost of Services Cost of services decreased $204 million, or 1.9%, during 2019 compared to 2018, primarily due to lower access costs resulting from a decline in voice connections, as well as lower employee-related costs associated with the lower headcount resulting from the Voluntary Separation Program, offset by an increase in regulatory fees.
Cost of Wireless Equipment Cost of wireless equipment increased $173 million, or 3.8%, during 2019 compared to 2018, primarily driven by a shift to higher priced units in the mix of wireless devices sold and an increase in the number of wireless devices sold.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense Selling, general and administrative expense increased $499 million, or 6.5%, during 2019 compared to 2018, due to increases in advertising expenses and sales commission expense, which were partially offset by decreases in employee-related costs resulting from the Voluntary Separation Program. The increase in sales commission expense was primarily due to a lower net deferral of commission costs in 2019 as compared to 2018 as a result of the adoption of Topic 606 on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $153 million, or 3.6%, during 2019 compared to 2018, driven by the change in the mix of total Verizon depreciable assets and Business’s usage of those assets.

The total intrinsic value of options and SARs exercised during the years ended March 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 was $8.3 million, $7.4 million and $9.6 million, respectively. This intrinsic value represents the difference between the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price of each equity award.

1.2 Data Centres
Note: 1. Due to its business nature, the significant air emissions of the Group are GHG emissions, arising mainly from fuels and purchased electricity produced from fossil fuels.
2. The Group’s GHG inventory includes carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. GHG emissions data for the year ended 31 December 2019 is presented in carbon dioxide equivalent and is calculated based on the “2017 Baseline Emission Factors for Regional Power Grids in China for CDM and CCER Projects” issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China, and the “2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories” issued by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
3. Diesel is consumed by backup power generators.
4. Hazardous waste produced by the Group’s office buildings mainly includes waste toner cartridge and waste ink cartridge from printing equipment. Waste toner cartridge and waste ink cartridge are centralised and disposed of by printing suppliers. Such data covers all office buildings of the Group in Mainland China.
5. Non-hazardous waste produced by the Group’s office buildings mainly includes domestic waste and non-hazardous office waste. Domestic waste is disposed of by the property management companies and kitchen waste recycling vendors, and its data is not available, therefore estimation of domestic waste is made with reference to “Handbook on Domestic Discharge Coefficients for Towns in the First Nationwide Census on Contaminant Discharge” published by the State Council. Non-hazardous office waste is centralised for disposal by vendors; hence such data covers all office buildings of the Group in Mainland China.
6. Hazardous waste produced by the Group’s data centres mainly includes waste lead-acid accumulators. Waste lead-acid accumulators are disposed of by qualified waste recycling vendors.
7. Non-hazardous waste produced by the Group’s data centres mainly includes waste servers and waste hard drives. Waste servers and destroyed waste hard drives are centralised and recycled by waste recycling vendors. Such data covers all the Group’s data centres.

The increase in Global Financing total revenue was driven by an increase in internal revenue, partially offset by a decrease in external revenue. Internal revenue grew 9.5 percent driven by increases in internal financing (up 17.6 percent) and internal used equipment sales (up 6.8 percent).
External revenue declined 6.3 percent due to a decrease in external used equipment sales (down 30.8 percent), partially offset by an increase in external financing (up 4.9 percent).
The increase in Global Financing pre-tax income was primarily driven by an increase in gross profit and a decrease in total expense.
