Explanation:

Pension worksheet inserting January 1, 2017, balances, showing December 31, 2017.

Computation of pension expense:

Service cost $91,100

Interest cost ($694,300 x 10%) $69,430

Expected return on plan assets ($65,100)

Prior service cost amortization $9,400

Pension expense for 2017 is then calculated by:

Service Cost + Interest Cost + Prior Service Cost Amortization - Expected Return on Plan Assets

Pension Expense = $91,000 + $69,430 + $9,400 - $65,100

Pension Expense = $104,730
