changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction of the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and related yields , interest-bearing liabilities and related rates paid , and noninterest-bearing sources of funding .
see statistical information 2013 analysis of year-to-year changes in net interest ( unaudited ) income and average consolidated balance sheet and net interest analysis in item 8 of this report for additional information .
higher net interest income for 2009 compared with 2008 reflected the increase in average interest-earning assets due to national city and the improvement in the net interest margin .
the net interest margin was 3.82% ( 3.82 % ) for 2009 and 3.37% ( 3.37 % ) for 2008 .
the following factors impacted the comparison : 2022 a decrease in the rate accrued on interest-bearing liabilities of 97 basis points .
the rate accrued on interest-bearing deposits , the largest component , decreased 107 basis points .
2022 these factors were partially offset by a 45 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets .
the yield on loans , which represented the largest portion of our earning assets in 2009 , decreased 30 basis points .
2022 in addition , the impact of noninterest-bearing sources of funding decreased 7 basis points .
for comparing to the broader market , the average federal funds rate was .16% ( .16 % ) for 2009 compared with 1.94% ( 1.94 % ) for 2008 .
we expect our net interest income for 2010 will likely be modestly lower as a result of cash recoveries on purchased impaired loans in 2009 and additional run-off of higher- yielding assets , which could be mitigated by rising interest rates .
