Answer:
The real risk free rate is 3.8%
The exact risk-free rate is 3.68%
Explanation:
The interest rate on the Treasury bills is usually a combination of real risk free rate and inflation rate to compensate investors for average inflation in the economy during the instrument lifetime which equals nominal risk-free rate.
nominal risk-free rate = real risk-free rate+inflation rate
nominal risk-free rate=7%
inflation rate=3.2%
real risk-free rate=7%-3.2%
real risk-free rate=3.8%
The exact real risk-free rate can be computed thus:
nominal rate+1=(real risk-free rate+1)*(inflation rate+1)
real risk-free rate=(nominal rate+1)/(inflation rate+1)-1
real risk free rate=(1.07/1.032)-1
real risk-free rate=0.036821705
real risk-free rate=3.68%

Explanation:
Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the pension expense amount which is shown below:
Pension expense = service cost + interest cost - expected return on plan assets
= $18,000 + $5,000 - $10,000
= $13,000
Now the journal entry would be
Pension expense A/c Dr $13,000
Plan asset A/c Dr $10,000
To PBO A/c $23,000
(Being the annual pension cost is recorded)
All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
