parameters, changes in estimates caused by the
actual development of risks impacting on pension
obligations and differences between the actual and
expected return on plan assets. Past service cost
arises where a BMW Group company introduces a
defined benefit plan or changes the benefits payable
under an existing plan.
Based on the measurement principles contained
in IAS 19, the following funding status applies to the
Group’s pension plans:
Pension provisions relating to pension plans in
other countries amounted to euro 202 million
(2004: euro 181 million).This includes euro 82 mil-
lion (2004: euro 69 million) relating to externally
funded plans.
The increase in the defined benefit obligations
was attributable to changes in the discount rates
used in the actuarial computation and to changes in
mortality rate assumptions.
