Consolidated Statement of Income

Comparative amounts for certain income statement categories are shown below:

     Sales and other operating revenues increased in 2010, mainly due to higher prices for crude oil, natural gas and refined products. Lower 2009 prices resulted in decreased revenues compared with 2008.

     Income from equity affiliates increased in 2010 from 2009 largely due to higher upstream-related earnings from Tengizchevroil (TCO) in Kazakhstan and Petropiar in Venezuela, principally related to higher prices for crude oil and increased crude oil production. Downstream-related affiliate earnings were also higher between the comparative periods, primarily due to higher earnings from CPChem, as a result of higher margins on sales of commodity chemicals. Improved margins on refined products and a favorable swing in foreign currency effects at GS Caltex in South Korea also contributed to the increase in downstream affiliate earnings in the 2010 period. Income from equity affiliates decreased in 2009 from 2008. Upstream-related affiliate income declined about $1.3 billion mainly due to lower earnings for TCO as a result of lower prices for crude oil. Downstream-related affiliate earnings were lower by approximately $1.0 billion primarily due to weaker margins and an unfavorable swing in foreign currency effects. Refer to Note 12, beginning on page FS-43, for a discussion of Chevron’s investments in affiliated companies.

     Other income of $1.1 billion in 2010 included net gains of approximately $1.1 billion on asset sales. Other income in both 2009 and 2008 included net gains from asset sales of $1.3 billion. Interest income was approximately $120 million in 2010, $95 million in 2009 and $340 million in 2008. Foreign currency effects decreased other income by $251 million in 2010 and $466 million in 2009, while increasing other income by $355 million in 2008. In addition, other income in 2008 included approximately $700 million in favorable settlements and other items.

     Crude oil and product purchases in 2010 increased $16.8 billion from 2009 due to higher prices for crude oil, natural gas and refined products. Crude oil and product purchases in 2009 decreased $71.7 billion from 2008 due to lower prices for
