Thanks, Jørn. It's really rather obvious now. I just found it a bit confusing. 
Perhaps it would help to lay it out slightly differently.
Perhaps add "Cubeful Equities" at the 1,2,3 bit.
Or move the cubeless numbers below it and/or put it in brackets.
What do you think? Or is just me who's had problems?
