(1)In 2009, we terminated an interest rate swap at a gain. This gain is being amortized as part of interest expense over the remaining term of the debt using the effective-yield method.

Interest expense related to long-term debt and the amortization of the associated debt issuance costs was $8 million in both 2019 and 2018.
