Answer:

The answer is $593,440.

Explanation:

Service cost = $600,000

Less: Expected return on plan assets (W1) = ($66,560)

Pension expense for the year 2022 = $593,440

Working (W1):

Funding on 1st January 2021 = $400,000

Add: actual return on 31 December 2021 = $400,000×8% = $32,000

Balance of plan assets on 31 December, 2021 = $432,000

Add: Current funding on 1st January 2022 = $400,000

Balance of plan assets on 1st January 2022 = $832,000

Balance of plan assets on 31st December 2022 = $832,000×8% = $66,560
