When Turner Company adopted its defined benefit pension plan on January 1, 2019, it awarded retroactive benefits to its employees. These retroactive benefits resulted in a prior service cost of $980,000 that created a projected benefit obligation of the same amount on that date (which it did not fund). Turner decided to amortize the prior service cost using the years-of-future-service method. Turner’s actuary and funding agency have provided the following additional information for 2019 and 2020: (1) service cost: 2019, $187,000; 2020, $189,000; (2) plan assets: 1/1/2019, $0; 1/1/2020, $342,000; (3) expected long-term (and actual) rate of return on plan assets: 2020, 9%; (4) discount rate for both 2019 and 2020: 8%; and (5) amortization fraction for prior service cost: 2019, 80/980; 2020, 79/980. Turner contributed $342,000 and $336,000 to the pension fund at the end of 2019 and 2020, respectively. No retirement benefits were paid in either year. There are no other components of Turner’s pension expense. Ignore any adjustment of accumulated other comprehensive income.
