The amount of other comprehensive income, net of tax, resulting from actuarial gains (losses) arising from changes in financial assumptions that result in remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability (asset). Financial assumptions deal with items such as: (a) the discount rate; (b) benefit levels, excluding any cost of the benefits to be met by employees, and future salary; (c) in the case of medical benefits, future medical costs, including claim handling costs (ie the costs that will be incurred in processing and resolving claims, including legal and adjuster's fees); and (d) taxes payable by the plan on contributions relating to service before the reporting date or on benefits resulting from that service. [Refer: Other comprehensive income, net of tax, gains (losses) on remeasurements of defined benefit plans] [Contrast: Decrease (increase) in net defined benefit liability (asset) resulting from actuarial gains (losses) arising from changes in financial assumptions]

- Definition

The amount of other comprehensive income, net of tax, resulting from the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in interest expense (income) arising from defined benefit plans. The return on plan assets is interest, dividends and other revenue derived from the plan assets, together with realised and unrealised gains or losses on the plan assets, less any costs of managing plan assets and less any tax payable by the plan itself, other than tax included in the actuarial assumptions used to measure the present value of the defined benefit obligation. [Refer: Other comprehensive income; Defined benefit plans [domain]; Plan assets [member]; Other comprehensive income, net of tax, gains (losses) on remeasurements of defined benefit plans] [Contrast: Decrease (increase) in net defined benefit liability (asset) resulting from return on plan assets excluding interest income or expense]
