Other earnings and expenditure<br />
Other earnings amounted to 46.3 m euros in the reporting year<br />

significant proportion of this.<br />

euros). It essentially includes operating costs, which are<br />
accompanied by income from cost transfer to Group companies<br />
as well as interest and consultancy costs and association and<br />
member contributions.<br />
The increase both in other income and in other expenditure<br />
is essentially attributable to the fact that remuneration to<br />
members of the Board of Directors was paid in full from <strong>2011</strong> by<br />
the contractually authorised company, <strong>R+V</strong> <strong>Versicherung</strong> AG.<br />

this resulted in net income of 95.2 m euros (2010: 176.3 m<br />
euros).<br />
From the <strong>2011</strong> net income, 10.6 m euros were transferred to<br />
retained earnings and 84.6 m euros were reported as net<br />
