Our non-operating pension and postretirement costs are defined as those costs related to interest, expected return on plan assets, amortized actuarial gains and losses and the impacts of any plan curtailments or settlements. These costs are primarily related to changes in pension plan assets and liabilities which are tied to financial market performance and we consider these costs to be outside our operational performance. We exclude these non-operating pension and postretirement costs from our segments as we believe that removing them provides a better understanding of the underlying profitability of our businesses, provides increased transparency and clarity in the performance of our retirement plans and enhances period-over-period comparability. We continue to include the service cost and amortization of prior service cost in our operating segments noted above. We believe these elements reflect the current year operating costs to our businesses for the employment benefits provided to active employees. These expenses are included as a component of the line item “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on our condensed consolidated statements of income. 
(3)
Charges are associated with our announced plan to separate into two independent public companies. See Note 3 for more detail on the business separation costs. These charges are included within "Business separation costs" on our condensed consolidated income statement. These costs were primarily related to professional fees associated with separation activities within the finance and legal functions.
(4)
Charges relate to the expensing of the inventory fair value step-up resulting from the application of purchase accounting for acquisitions and costs incurred associated the completion of acquisitions. On the condensed consolidated statements of income, the charges associated with inventory fair value step-up are included in “Costs of sales and services” and fees associated with concluding the acquisitions are included in "Selling, general and administrative expenses". Charges for the three months ended March 31, 2014, represented amortization of inventory fair value step-up associated with our Epax acquisition within our FMC Health and Nutrition segment.
