Answer(s): A
The discount rate increased from 3-5% to 6.0%. An increase in the discount rate will result in lower service cost. Lower service cost will result in a lower PBO.

The impact on interest cost cannot be determined without more information. (Study Session 6, LOS 22.c)

Under IFRS, Iron Parts s pension liability will be lower because the unamortized past service cost of $37 million is eliminated from the funded status. Stated differently, if we subtracted the unamortized past service cost from the PBO, the funded status would be higher by $37 million. (Study Session 6, LOS 22.e)
