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.

interest                                                   ( 60000)              66560            6560

Phoenix [80]

Explanation:

The horizontal merger is the basis for the government's challenge to P&G's acquisition of Clorox because the result would have lessened competition substantially in that line of commerce nationwide. P&G being the leading and mainly national advertiser and also mainly national seller of soaps, detergents and cleaners with sales that accounted for 54 % of the market and a  leading brand with 48% of national sales.

With this type of advertising and power control which P&G possess, this would put P&G in a position to control the market and potentially detrimentally affect the consumers.
