1 For each plan, actuarial gains and losses are reported as income or expense
when the accumulated amount exceed the so called corridor. The income or
expenses are then recognized over the expected average remaining service
period of the employees.
An increase of one percentage point per year in healthcare costs would
increase the accumulated post–employment benefit obligation as of
December 31, 2012 by approximately 166, and the post–employment
benefit expense for the period by approximately 8. A decrease of one
percentage point would decrease the accumulated value of obligations by
approximately 141 and reduce costs for the period by approximately 6.
Calculations made as of December 31, 2012 show an annual increase of
8% in the weighted average per capita costs of covered health care bene-
fits. It is assumed that the percentage will decline gradually to 4.5% until
2029 and subsequently remain at that level.
