PART I

Item 1 - Business

(a)	General Development of Business

Hampshire Funding, Inc. ("the Company") was incorporated in the State of New Hampshire on December 8, 1969. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Jefferson-Pilot Corporation.

The Company, in affiliation with Jefferson Pilot Financial Insurance Company, Jefferson Pilot LifeAmerica Insurance Company (collectively "Insurance Companies") and Jefferson Pilot Securities Corporation (the "Broker-Dealer"), a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), has primarily been engaged in the offering and administration of programs which coordinate the acquisition of mutual fund shares and life or health insurance (the "Programs"). The Programs were intended, in part, to augment the sales activities of the Broker-Dealer and the Insurance Companies.

Effective March 31, 1998, the Company discontinued offering its Programs for sale. The Company continues, however, to extend premium loans to current program participants (Participants) until their stated maturity or termination date.

(b)	Financial Information About Industry Segments

The Company has one reportable segment as described in (c). Revenues, operating profit and loss, and identifiable assets for the five years ended December 31, 2004, are included in Item 6 - Selected Financial Data and Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

(c)	Narrative Description of Business

The Company administers Programs which involve periodic cash purchases of mutual fund shares. Under the Programs, Participants make periodic purchases of mutual fund shares for cash with automatic reinvestment of all distributions. Participants obtain insurance coverage through a series of insurance premium loans offered by the Company. Loans to Participants are secured by Participants' periodic purchases of mutual fund shares. The mutual fund shares are registered in the Company's name as Custodian for Participants.

The objective of a Program is the utilization of the appreciation, if any, in the value of the mutual fund shares and the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions thereon to aid in offsetting the principal and accumulated interest on the loans.

As noted, the Company discontinued offering Programs for sale but will continue to administer all programs until their stated maturity or termination dates.

Historically, the Programs were offered for sale by those agents of the Insurance Companies who qualify as registered representatives, through broker-dealers, under the regulations of the NASD.

On December 31, 1997, Hampshire Funding, Inc. entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Preferred Receivables Funding Corporation (“PREFCO”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank One, formerly First National Bank of Chicago, (the “Bank”). The Agreement provided for an initial purchase of the Company’s collateral loans receivable by PREFCO in the amount of $52,994,767 and for ongoing periodic purchases. As PREFCO purchased collateral loans, the Company retained 5% of each loan sold, interest- only strips and servicing rights which are reported on the Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2003 as "Interests retained from loan sales, at fair value" and "Servicing asset". Over the life of the Agreement, cash flows related to the repayment of loans were used to satisfy the collateral loan receivables due to PREFCO.

(c)	Narrative Description of Business (continued)

On July 9, 2004, the Company terminated its Agreement with PREFCO. The Company borrowed funds through its existing inter-company agreement with its parent, Jefferson-Pilot Corporation, and purchased PREFCO's remaining receivable balance of $3,686,537 and re-established its collateral loan receivable. The Company's Collateralized loans receivable from Participants is $12,303,907 at December 31, 2004.

Revenues for 2004 include the realized gain received upon termination of the company’s Agreement with PREFCO, gain on sales of loans and servicing, interest on collateral loans, interest income on securities, and Program participant fees. For the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 such revenues were as follows:

	2004		2003		2002

Loan sales and servicing	$	702,050	$	1,229,181	$	1,001,538
Realized gain on sale of retained interest		1,609,019		-		-
Interest on collateralized loans		561,935		79,531		127,135
Interest on cash sweep account		8,683		13,787		31,246
Program participant fees		53,438		73,238		116,446

Regulation

The Company filed its final Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 1997. The Company is also subject to supervision by the Commissioners of Securities of the jurisdictions in which the Company has sold the Programs.

Although the Company no longer offers its Programs for sale, its existing Programs are authorized to use insurance policies offered by the Insurance Companies. Insurance available for purchase in connection with a Program may vary from state to state, depending on whether Jefferson Pilot Financial Insurance Company (Jefferson Pilot Financial) or Jefferson Pilot LifeAmerica Insurance Company (Jefferson Pilot LifeAmerica) is licensed to sell insurance in a particular jurisdiction, and whether a jurisdiction in which one of the Insurance Companies is licensed has approved the sale of a particular insurance product.

Historically, each Insurance Company offered several types of policies within the Program. The Insurance Companies are subject to the regulations of the insurance department of each state in which they are licensed to do business. In addition, Jefferson Pilot Financial, through JPF Separate Accounts A and C, and Jefferson Pilot LifeAmerica Insurance Company, through JPF Separate Account B, offer for sale variable universal life insurance policies, which are subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Policies, including the variable universal life insurance product, issued under the Program may not be identical in each state or jurisdiction. Regulations that determine the types of policies and their provisions may differ in each state. As a result, the Insurance Companies have internal procedures designed to ensure that only approved policies are issued in each state.

The insurance agents who sold the Company’s Programs are subject to the oversight and regulation of the insurance department of each jurisdiction where they are licensed. In addition, only those agents who are registered representatives of broker-dealers sold Programs; thus the insurance agents are also subject to supervision and regulation of the NASD and securities department of each jurisdiction where they are licensed.

Dependence Upon a Single or a Few Customers

Given the Company’s decision to discontinue the sale of its programs, the dependence upon a single or few customers is not applicable. Historically, the Company was not dependent upon a single or few customers.

Competition

Competition is no longer a factor since the Company no longer offers Programs for sale. Historically the Company faced limited competition in the sale of Programs, as the number of companies offering plans similar to the Programs was quite small.

Employees

The Company has no paid employees. Jefferson Pilot Life Insurance Company (“JP Life”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jefferson-Pilot Corporation, provides employee and office services, as well as certain operating assets, to the Company and its affiliates. JP Life employs all of the personnel who perform business functions for the Company. JP Life believes that its relationship with employees is good.

(d)	Financial Information About Geographic Areas

All sales and operations of the Company are conducted within the United States.

(e)	Available information

The Company’s annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q were filed or furnished pursuant to Section 12(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s filings may be read or copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room can be obtained by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet website (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically.

Item 2 - Properties

The Company does not own or lease any real property. The Company occupies a portion of the home office of Jefferson Pilot Financial located at One Granite Place, Concord, New Hampshire. The use by the Company of such facilities and the equipment and furnishings owned by JP Life, Jefferson Pilot Financial, or any of the other Insurance Companies is subject to a pro-rata allocation of expenses.

Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Company Profile

The Company administers investment programs (the "Programs") which coordinate the acquisition of mutual fund shares and insurance over a period of ten years. Under the Programs, Participants purchase life and health insurance from affiliated Insurance Companies and finance the premiums through a series of loans secured by mutual fund shares. Upon issuance of a policy by an Insurance Company, the Company makes a loan to the Participant in an amount equal to the selected premium mode. As each premium becomes due, if not paid in cash, a new loan equal to the next premium and administrative fee is made and added to the Participant's account indebtedness ("Account Indebtedness"). Thus, interest, as well as principal, is borrowed and mutual fund shares are pledged as collateral. The Program loan percentage rate charged to Participants was 8.25% on December 31, 2004. The aggregate value of all mutual fund shares pledged as collateral must be at least 150% of the Participant's total Account Indebtedness. If the value of the shares pledged to the Company declines below 130% of the Account Indebtedness, the Company will terminate the Programs and liquidate shares sufficient to repay the indebtedness.

Effective March 31, 1998, the Company discontinued the sale of Programs. The Company, however, will continue to make premium loans to current Participants and administer all Programs until their stated maturity or termination dates.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements. The majority of assets and liabilities are financial in nature and the valuations of these assets and liabilities are critical to the financial position and results of operations. However, certain accounting policies are particularly important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and require the Company’s management to apply significant judgment; as a result are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. At December 31, 2003, the fair value of retained interest on loan sales included assumptions related to termination and discount rates. These assumptions involve a high degree of judgment by management and are subject to fluctuations based upon current market and economic conditions. Management evaluated estimates and judgments based upon historical experience, which formed the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that were not readily apparent from other sources.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In 1998 the Company entered into an intercompany loan agreement with Jefferson-Pilot Corporation whereby it may borrow funds for working capital needs at short-term interest rates. At December 31, 2004 the company had borrowed $3,201,853 compared to $2,154,020 at December 31, 2003. The 2004 balance includes $3,686,537 that was used to extinguish the purchased receivable with PREFCO.

The continuance of the Program is dependent upon the Company's ability to borrow funds or provide for the financing of insurance premiums for Participants. The Company expects that it will be able to continue to borrow funds through its existing inter-company loan agreement with Jefferson-Pilot for the foreseeable future.

If the Company is unable to borrow funds in the future for the purpose of financing loans to Participants for the payment of insurance premiums, the Programs may be subject to termination.

The Company’s liabilities include amounts due to affiliates for premium loans, due to parent, and due to JP Life for expense reimbursements. Working capital in the third and fourth quarters of 2004 was provided by loan proceeds from Jefferson-Pilot Corporation, Program loan repayments, administrative fees, and interest earned on investments. Working capital through June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 and 2002 was provided by servicing fees from collateral loans sold, loans from Jefferson-Pilot Corporation, and interest earned on investments.

Results of Operations

The Company concluded the year ended December 31, 2004 with net income of $1,728,842 as compared to net income of $909,183 in 2003, and $749,206 in 2002.

On July 9, 2004, the Company realized a gain of $1,609,019 upon termination of its agreement with PREFCO which represented the difference between the fair market value and carrying cost of its retained interest. The Company had estimated the fair value of its retained interest based on the present value of future cash flows expected from the sold receivables.

Total revenues through December 31, 2004 were $1,326,106 versus $1,395,737 in 2003 and $1,276,365 in 2002. Prior to July 9, 2004, the Company's revenues were derived from income on its retained interest in the loans sold to investors and program fees. Subsequent to termination of the Agreement, the Company's revenues were derived from interest income on collateralized loans and program fees. Program fees include placement, administrative and termination fees as well as charges for special services. Program fees continue to decline as programs terminate and mature. As of December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002 the number of Programs administered by the Company was 541, 916, and 1,406, respectively.

The Company is responsible for servicing, managing and collecting all receivables and loan repayments and monitoring the underlying collateral. Prior to July 9, 2004, all activity was reported to the Bank for which it received an annual service fee (collected monthly in arrears) calculated as 2% of outstanding receivables. The Company received $60,920 in service fees for the period January 1 through July 9, 2004. The Company received $238,455 and $500,969 in service fees during 2003 and 2002, respectively. The service fee was eliminated upon termination of the Agreement.

Results of Operations (continued)

Interest expense was $51,475, $21,585, and $14,524 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. The weighted average interest rates of 1.37%, 1.14%, and 1.70% were paid on average outstanding loans due to affiliates of $3,458,614, $1,887,420, and $863,434 in 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Employee services and office facilities are provided by JP Life under a Service Agreement with the Company. The Company pays JP Life a monthly fee (in arrears) for services in accordance with mutually agreed upon cost allocation methods, which the Companies believe reflect a proportional allocation of common expenses and are commensurate for the performance of its duties. The Company paid JP Life servicing expenses of $337,960, $461,870, and $515,624 during 2004, 2003, and 2002.

Prior to July 9, 2004, the Company capitalized the present value of expected service fee income in excess of related servicing expenses, which was reported as a Servicing Asset. Subsequent to July 9, 2004, the Company’s allocation of expenses of $140,478 are reported as Administrative expenses.

Income tax expense was $1,014,330, $464,969, and $512,635 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. The effective tax rate, representing a blend of federal and state income tax rates, was 37.44%, 39.17%, and 40.62% for the years ended December 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors

Hampshire Funding, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Hampshire Funding, Inc. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related statements of income, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hampshire Funding, Inc. at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2004

1. Accounting Policies

Organization

Hampshire Funding, Inc. (the “Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jefferson-Pilot Corporation, administers programs that coordinate the acquisition of mutual fund shares and insurance (“Programs”). Under the Programs, insurance premiums are paid by current program participants (“Participants”) through a series of loans from the Company and secured by Participant’s ownership of mutual fund shares. The objective of a Program is the utilization of the appreciation, if any, in the value of the mutual fund shares and the reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions thereon to aid in offsetting the principal and accumulated interest on the loans. All Programs are ten years in length and no payments are due until Programs are terminated or mature.

Effective March 31, 1998 the Company discontinued the sale of these Programs. The Company continues, however, to extend premium loans to current Participants and administer Programs until their stated maturity or termination date.

Affiliates of the Company include Jefferson Pilot Financial Insurance Company (“Jefferson Pilot Financial”) and Jefferson Pilot LifeAmerica Insurance Company. Other affiliates of the Company include Jefferson Pilot Investment Advisory Corporation, and Jefferson Pilot Securities Corporation, which are also 100% owned by Jefferson-Pilot Corporation.

The Company administers Programs whereby Participants obtain life insurance coverage solely from Jefferson Pilot Financial and Jefferson Pilot LifeAmerica. Under the Programs, insurance premiums are paid by Participants through a series of loans from the Company. Loans to Participants are secured by Participant’s ownership in mutual fund shares.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on deposit at financial institutions.

Collateralized Loans

The Company finances premiums for policyholders who have purchased life insurance policies. The fair value of a Participant’s pledged mutual fund shares must exceed 150% of the total loan balance plus accrued interest (“Participant’s Total Account Indebtedness”). If the value of the shares pledged declines below 130% of the Participant’s Total Account Indebtedness, the Company will terminate the Program and liquidate shares sufficient to repay the Indebtedness. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.

Program Loan Sales

When the Company sold program loans, it retained interest-only strips, servicing rights and 5% of each loan sold, all of which were retained interests in the securitized receivables. Gain or loss on sale of the receivables depended in part on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold and the retained interests based on their relative fair value at the date of transfer. However, quotes are generally not available for retained interest, so the Company generally estimated fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows estimated using management’s best estimates of the key assumptions - termination and discount rates commensurate with the risks involved.

Servicing Asset

The Company received fee income for continuing to service sold receivables equal to 2% of outstanding receivables. The Company capitalized the present value of expected servicing fee income in excess of the related cost of servicing over the estimated life of the sold receivables (net servicing income). To the extent that net servicing income varied from management’s estimates, the servicing asset may amortize faster or slower than anticipated. The asset was evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. The asset would be considered impaired to the extent that estimated fair value was less than amortized cost at the balance sheet date.

No adjustment for impairment or additional obligation with respect to capitalized servicing rights has been recorded by the Company.

Recognition of Revenues

Interest on assets retained from loan sales, and administrative fees charged to Participants for establishing and maintaining Programs are recognized as revenue when earned.

2. Termination of Financing Agreement

On December 31, 1997, the Company entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with Preferred Receivables Funding Corporation ("PREFCO"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank One, formerly First National Bank of Chicago, (the "Bank"). This Agreement provided for an initial purchase of the Company's collateral loans receivable by PREFCO in the amount of $52,994,767 and for ongoing periodic purchases. Over the life of the Agreement, cash flows related to the repayment of loans were used to satisfy the collateral loan receivables due to PREFCO. The Agreement renewed annually and was scheduled to renew again on July 21, 2004.

The collateral loan receivable due to PREFCO had declined to $3,686,674 as of June 30, 2004. Accordingly, on July 9, 2004, the Company elected not to extend the Agreement. Upon termination of the Agreement, the Company borrowed funds through its existing inter-company loan agreement with its parent Jefferson-Pilot Corporation and paid PREFCO its outstanding collateral loan receivable balance of $3,686,537, net of a $137 interest payment. The Company realized a gain of $1,609,019 upon termination of the securitized receivable with PREFCO, based on an estimated fair market value of $12,423,133 as compared to a cost basis of $10,977,426.

3. Sale of Collateral Notes Receivable Portfolio

Until termination of the Agreement, the Company sold program loans in securitization transactions, and in each case the Company retained servicing responsibilities and subordinated interests. The Company received annual servicing fees of 2% of the outstanding balance and rights to future cash flows arising after the purchaser of the loans had received the return for which they contracted. The investor in the loans had no recourse to the Company’s other assets for failure of debtors to pay when due. The Company’s retained interests were subordinate to the investor’s interests. Their value was subject to credit and prepayment risks on the transferred financial assets, although the loans were fully secured by shares in mutual funds.

3. Sale of Collateral Notes Receivable Portfolio (continued)

At December 31, 2003, key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of the current fair value of residual cash flows to immediate adverse changes in those assumptions were as follows:

Carrying Amount/fair value of retained interests	$	11,711,462
Weighted-average life		0.7 years

Termination rate assumption (annual)		30%
Rate increases to 35%	$	101,257
Rate increases to 40%	$	195,383
Rate increases to 45%	$	285,454

Residual cash flows discount rate (annual)		15%
Rate increases to 17%	$	(378,661	)
Rate increases to 19%	$	(740,473	)

As the figures indicate, changes in fair value based upon the varying of assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the retained interest is calculated without changing any other assumption, in reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments), which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

At July 9, 2004, the outstanding balance of loans sold by the Company under the Agreement was $15,845,889 compared to $19,127,070 in 2003. The Company received gross servicing income of $60,920 for the period January 1 through July 9, 2004. The Company received $238,455, and $500,969, for the years ended December 31, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

4. Interest Retained from Receivable Sales, net

The amortized cost and gross unrealized gains and losses and estimated fair value of retained interests in loan sales at December 31, 2003 are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities as the Programs underlying the securities may be terminated prior to contractual maturity.

(815,946

11,711,462

Residual principal represents a 5% undivided interest in the receivables and capitalized interest sold by the Company at the time of each sale. As the sold principal is fully amortized prior to amortization of the retained principal, the Company’s undivided interest may not represent 5% of the total outstanding receivables subsequent to the date of each sale.

Interest-only strip receivables represent the Company’s right to interest in excess of the sum paid to the purchaser of the loans.

All of the interests retained were subordinated to the payment of principal and permitted interest to the bank-sponsored commercial paper conduit, and are initially recorded at their respective fair values. As permitted by the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Company classified interests retained as available-for-sale securities. As a result, unrealized gain and unrealized losses not deemed to be other-than-temporary were included in comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholder’s equity.

5. Income Taxes

The operations of the Company are included in the consolidated federal income tax return of Jefferson-Pilot Corporation. Federal income tax is allocated by Jefferson-Pilot Corporation as if the Company filed a separate income tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, based on enacted tax rates and other provisions of tax law.

Significant components of income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, were as follows:

	2004		2003		2002
Current:
Federal	$	346,119	$	253,339	$	564,388
State		60,200		119,891		143,361
Total current		406,319		373,230		707,749

Deferred:
Federal		564,842		75,685		(160,969	)
State		43,169		16,054		(34,145	)
Total deferred		608,011		91,739		(195,114	)

	$	1,014,330	$	464,969	$	512,635

A reconciliation of the blended federal and state statutory income tax rates to the Company’s effective income tax expense for the years ended December 31 is as follows:

	2004			2003			2002
Income before income taxes	$	2,743,172		$	1,374,152		$	1,261,841
Blended statutory federal and state rates		37.44%			39.17%			40.62%
Tax at blended statutory rates		1,027,183			538,297			512,635
Foreign tax credits		(12,853	)		(73,328	)		-
Effective income tax	$	1,014,330		$	464,969		$	512,635

Deferred tax assets (liabilities) were comprised of the following at December 31, 2003:

Impact of loan sales	$	608,011
Unrealized gain on securities available for sale		(692,982	)
	$	(84,971	)

Net deferred liabilities are included with other assets in the statement of financial condition.

6. Transactions with Affiliates

In 1998, the Company entered into an intercompany loan agreement with Jefferson-Pilot Corporation whereby the Company may borrow funds for working capital needs at short-term interest rates. The weighted average interest rate for the intercompany borrowings was 1.37%, 1.14%, and 1.70% for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company had borrowed $3,201,853 and $2,154,020, respectively.

The Programs, and most mutual fund shares offered in conjunction with the Programs, are sold through Jefferson Pilot Securities Corporation, a registered broker-dealer.

6. Transactions with Affiliates (continued)

Substantially all general and administrative expenses are allocated to the Company by JP Life in accordance with mutually agreed upon cost allocation methods that the Company and JP Life believe reflect a proportional allocation of common expenses and which are commensurate for the performance of the applicable duties. The Company did not allocate any expenses related to the servicing asset for 2004 and 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company’s portion of allocated expenses related to the servicing asset were $16,254. These expenses are included in the calculation of the expected cash flows for purposes of determining income related to programs sales, therefore are not shown as expenses in the statements of income.
