Pensiоns Questiоns, Yeаr 1 (Questiоns 1-6). 2008 Info: On 12/31/2007, NCC hаd а pension asset of $1,500,000. That included a $20,000,000 in Plan Assets and $18,500,000 Projected Benefit Obligation. During 2008, NCC contributes $5,000,000 to their pension plan and pays out $6,000,000 to retirees. They expected to earn a 9% return on their Plan Assets, but the actual return on plan assets was 5%. The actuary told them to use a 7% settlement rate for interest in 2008, and estimated a $2,000,000 service cost for the 2008 year. NCC began 2008 with a $2,100,000 Net Loss in their AOCI – Gain/Loss account related to prior year actual returns being less than expected. At the end of 2008, their actuary revises the assumptions of the plan somewhat, and calculates an actuarial gain of $500,000. The average remaining service life of the current employees is 15 years. 1) What is the PBO balance at the end of 2008? 2) What is the Plan Assets balance at the end of 2008? 3) How would the PBO and Plan Assets be reported on the balance sheet on 12-31-2008? 4) What is the pension expense for 2008? 5) What is the 2008 ending balance in AOCI-G/L account? 6) What is the 2008 ending balance in the AOCI – Prior Service Cost (PSC) account?
