Answer:

Pension Expense = EBE = $593440 for income statement

Explanation:

The opening balance of the Plan asset is made by the 40000 from 2018 plus interest of 32000 and the new 400000 made this year. Why include it? Because an opening balance are the funds in an account at the beginning of the year either from last year or are from current year but should be the first entry in the books of the current year.

                                                                 DBO                plan asset       EBE

opening balance                                   (600000)            832000             -

interest                                                   ( 60000)              66560            6560

current year's service cost                    (600000)                               (600000)

                                                            (  1260000 )            898560      <u> 593440</u>

 balance sheet liability = 361440

When happens when demand exceeds supply?
ElenaW [278]

A shortage occurs when demand exceeds supply – in other words, when the price is too low. However, shortages tend to drive up the price, because consumers compete to purchase the product. As a result, businesses may hold back supply to stimulate demand.
