Respuesta :

Answer: The cash payments to beneficiaries

Explanation:

When preparing the Pension Worksheet, in addition to the entries listed such as the Service cost and the return on plan assets, another very important entry would be the Cash payments to the beneficiaries which is also known as Retiree benefits.

The cost of capital, the increase or decrease in Pension Asset/ Liability and the remaining service lives of employees are not included in the Worksheet but contribute to the figures on the worksheet.
