Answer 1

Answer:

The employer can experience pension loss if it found out that the retirees benefits paid out are more than expected.

Explanation:

Normally during salary payments,pension claims are also paid out to  retirees and this may have been scrutinized and processed automatically such that a mistake is very unlike. However, if it is noted that payments being made to retirees claims are more than expected after payments have been carried out then we may say the company has experienced a pension loss.
