- Stanley-Morgan Industries adopted a defined benefit pension plan on April 12, 2024. The provisions of the plan were not made retroactive to prior years. A local bank, engaged as trustee for the plan assets, expects plan assets to earn a 10% rate of return. The actual return was also 10% in 2024 and 2025. A consulting firm, engaged as actuary, recommends 6% as the appropriate discount rate. The service cost is $150,000 for 2024 and $200,000 for 2025. Year-end funding is $160,000 for 2024 and $170,000 for 2025, No assumptions or estimates were revised during 2024.
