Weighted-average Assumptions
Weighted-average assumptions used to determine projected benefit obligations are as follows:
 December 31, 2022December 25, 2021
Discount rate4.8 %1.8 %
Rate of compensation increase3.2 %3.7 %
The discount rate reflects the rate the Company would have to pay to purchase high-quality investments that would provide cash sufficient to settle its current pension obligations. A 25-basis point change across all discount rates changes the projected benefit obligation by approximately $7 million for all Company plans.
Weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost are as follows:
