Investments in Affiliates

Unconsolidated Affiliates

We have equity interests of up to 50.0% in various joint ventures with unrelated third parties that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting because we have the ability to exercise significant influence over their operating and financial policies.

The following table sets forth the summarized income statements of our unconsolidated affiliates:

Board of Trade Investment Company ("Board of Trade")

During the first quarter of 2014, Board of Trade sold an office property to an unrelated third party for gross proceeds of $8.3 million and recorded a gain of $1.9 million. We expect to receive aggregate net distributions of $4.7 million in connection with our investment in this entity. As our cost basis is different from the basis reflected at the entity level, we recorded a net impairment charge on our investment of $0.4 million. This charge represented the other-than-temporary decline in the fair value below the carrying value of our investment.
