Hi, They are both treated in the same fashion as it is the payment of the pension. Check the notes/videos to look at how the payment is dealt with. Thanks

Hi sir Are they past service costs? Thanks

Hi, Why would they be past service costs? Payments out of the scheme will reduce the assets and the liabilities by the same amount. There is no impact on profit or loss. Thanks
