Answer: $39,500
Explanation:
Service Cost for the year = Ending PBO - Opening PBO - Interest cost + Benefits paid
<u>Opening PBO</u>
Opening PBO is the amount that the interest was charged on.
Discount rate of 10% came out to be $7,500.
The opening balance = 7,500/10%
= $75,000
Service Cost = 112,000 - 75,000 - 7,500 + 10,000
Service Cost for the year = $39,500

Answer:
Deferred tax is increased by $130 million 
Explanation:
We have given income = $400 million 
Company is subject to a tax rate of 40 %
So tax rate = 40 %
So current Tax = $400×40%= $160 Million
Decrease in deferred tax assets of 50 million result in increase in tax expense
Hence total Tax Expense= $160+$50= $210 Million
But it is given that expense is only $80 million
So change in deferred tax is increases by = $210 - $80 = $130
So deferred tax is increases by $130 million
