Answer:
$23,000
Explanation:
Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the pension expense amount which is shown below:

= $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)
