Respuesta :

Answer: Net Pension liability of $42 million

Explanation:

Net Pension Asset (Liability) = Ending Plan Assets  - Ending PBO

Ending PBO = Beginning PBO + Service Cost + Interest cost + Loss on PBO - Retiree benefits paid

= 820 + 74 + 41 + 9 - 77

= $‭867‬

Net Pension Assets (Liability) = 825 - 867

= -$42 million
