NOTE F — Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Other comprehensive loss consists of foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains and losses from cash flow hedges and net investment hedges, and the unamortized gain on post-retirement plans, net of their related tax effects.

The following table illustrates the changes in the balances of each component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, for the nine months ended April 30, 2019:



	Unrealized gain on cash flow hedges			Unamortized gain on post-retirement plans			Foreign currency translation adjustments			Accumulated other comprehensive loss
Beginning balance, July 31, 2018	$	863		$	3,302		$	(60,566	)	$	(56,401	)

Ending balance, April 30, 2019	$	662		$	2,710		$	(71,818	)	$	(68,446	)

The increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of April 30, 2019, compared to July 31, 2018, was primarily due to the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against certain other currencies during the nine-month period.
