The answer is: $367,000

Explanation:

To determine Pronghorn Corporation's actual return on plan assets we can use the following formula:

return on plan assets = (year-end plan assets - beginning of the year plan assets) - (contribution to the pension fund - benefits paid)

return on plan assets = ($2,035,000 - $1,770,000) - ($116,000 - $218,000)

return on plan assets = $265,000 - (-$102,000) = $265,000 + $102,000

return on plan assets = $367,000
