Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Good morning everyone.
Rick Schmidt
Good morning.
Jeffrey Turner
Hi Rob.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Rick, you just talked about the capitalized development in inventory, I think it was 235 for the 787, 235 million and then another 100 plus on other programs. How much are you amortizing per unit shift on 787?
Rick Schmidt
787, is all being amortized over the first 500 units.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay.
Rick Schmidt
So, it's roughly 1.4 million a copy.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay, okay. Excellent.
Rick Schmidt
And that will be amortized straight line again over those first 500 units.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay. And then one other thing, I think you were just talking about --
Jeffrey Turner
I think that was the cash ...
Rick Schmidt
About 400 million, 400,000, the $230 million.
Jeffrey Turner
I'm sorry, you're absolutely right, yeah I'm sorry. I was thinking of the advance, now you're absolutely right. It's the 235 million we're going to amortize over those 500 units, yeah.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay, so little under $0.5 million a piece.
Rick Schmidt
Yeah.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
And on the CapEx that you talked about for next year, the figure you gave, did you mention what... is there any offset from Boeing there?
Rick Schmidt
Well, we have the final year of the CapEx reimbursement program that I think we highlighted on will guidance page.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Yeah.
Rick Schmidt
It's -- the final year is a $150 million, so that we will always reflect that as a separate line item.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay, you are talking about 2009 now?
Rick Schmidt
For 2009, yes.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay. I was looking into 2008 actual of 116
Rick Schmidt
It was 116 in '08 actual, that's correct.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay, so they are very similar.
Rick Schmidt
Yes, they are. But that is the last year of that reimbursement.
Robert Spingarn - Credit Suisse
Okay. And then really the only other thing I wanted to ask you about, is if you could walk us through how we should think about this positive cash flow that you've talked about in the guidance, but not with a whole lot of specificity, how should we think about the working capital accounts as we go through the year and then relative to the CapEx and reimbursement try to size this cash flow.
