For the year ended December 31, the current service cost as determined by an appropriate actuarial cost method was $570,000. A negotiated curtailment of the pension plan resulted in a past service cost of $500,000 to Koffee’s benefit. A change in actuarial assumptions created a loss of $15,000. The expected return on plan assets was $408,000. However, the actual return is $395,000. Koffee paid $730,000 to the pension trustee in December of the prior year and made no further contributions.
