Note 16 : Derivative Financial Instruments

Volume of Derivative Activity

Total gross notional amounts for outstanding derivatives (recorded at fair value) at the end of each period were as follows:

(In Millions)	Dec 25, 2021		Dec 26, 2020		Dec 28, 2019
Foreign currency contracts	$	38,024	$	31,209	$	23,981
Interest rate contracts	15,209		14,461		14,302
Other	2,517		2,026		1,753
Total	$	55,750	$	47,696	$	40,036

During 2021 and 2020, we did not enter into any new pay-variable, receive-fixed interest rate swaps to hedge against changes in the fair value attributable to benchmark interest rates related to our outstanding senior notes. The total notional amount of outstanding pay-variable, receive-fixed interest rate swaps was $12.0 billion as of December 25, 2021 and $12.0 billion as of December 26, 2020. In 2019, we unwound $7.1 billion of these swaps, resulting in a $111 million gain to be amortized over the remaining life of the debt.

Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships

The before-tax net gains or losses attributed to the effective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) were $434 million net losses in 2021 ($806 million net gains in 2020 and $11 million net losses in 2019). Substantially all of our cash flow hedges are foreign currency contracts for all periods presented.

Amounts excluded from effectiveness testing were insignificant during all periods presented.
