Answer:

1. The expected post-retirement benefit obligation at the end of 2021 is $196,000, the present value of total net costs of providing health care benefits.

2. Calculation of the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation at the end of 2021 is as below:

APBO = EPBO * Full eligibility period / Attribution period

APBO = $196,000 * 2 / (2+28)

APBO = $196,000 * 2/30

APBO = $13066.66666666667

APBO = $13,066.67

Thus, accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation at the end of 2021 is $13,066.67.

(4) Increase sales by $20,000 per year => No => under operating cashflow.

(5) $3,500 to train the employees to use the new equipment => No => under operating cashflow.

So, total initial outlay = 100,000 + 5,000 + 8,000 = 113,000.
