Defined benefit plan OCI amounts before reclassifications relate to actuarial gains and losses that arose during the year and were recognized in AOCI. The unamortized actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs on the defined benefit plans are amortized from AOCI into Other Income, Net over the average future employee service period, and are reflected in amounts reclassified from AOCI. The related tax effects of the defined benefit plan OCI amounts before reclassifications recognized in AOCI were net deferred tax liabilities of $8.3 million in 2021 and deferred tax assets of $6.0 million and $4.4 million in 2020 and 2019, respectively. The following table sets forth the amounts reclassified from AOCI by component and the impacted line item on the statements of income:
