Interest in Master Trust Interest in Master Trust
Use of the Master Trust permits the commingling of the trust assets of the Savings Plans of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries for investment and administrative purposes. Although assets are commingled in the Master Trust, the Trustee maintains supporting records for the purpose of recording the equity in net earnings (losses) and the administrative expenses of the investment accounts to the participating plans as well as to individual participant accounts. Equity in an investment account's net earnings is comprised of interest and dividends and realized and unrealized investment gains and losses. The interest and dividends and the net depreciation or appreciation in the fair value of investments are allocated to the individual accounts on a daily basis based upon the individual accounts’ equitable share of the various investment funds that comprise the Master Trust. The total interest of Entergy Savings Plan IX is determined as the sum of the individual account balances of Entergy Savings Plan IX.
