historical levels..., combined...
In English I think we would put commas in (and maybe they should be there in the Spanish too): The contributions, which exceeded historical levels by 28.5%, combined with the high prices in the (temporary/casual) market, had a positive impact on our results in 2008.
I can't see how it makes sense otherwise.
Hope that helps, Maria.

The key to understanding this seems to be what combinados refers to: it's not different historical levels that are combined, but aportes (that are at historically high levels) and altos precios. In my view there should be a comma between historicos and combinados.
