Changes in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The amounts shown in the table above for actuarial losses at December 31, 2019 and 2020 have not been recognized as components of our periodic defined benefit pension cost as of those dates.  These amounts will be recognized as components of our periodic defined benefit cost in future years.  These amounts, net of deferred

income taxes, are recognized in our accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at December 31, 2019 and 2020.

The total net underfunded status of our defined benefit pension plans decreased from $4.0 million at December 31, 2019 to $2.6 million at December 31, 2020 due to the change in plan assets during 2020 exceeding the change in our PBO during 2020.  The increase in our plan assets in 2020 was primarily attributable to net plan asset returns in 2020 and employer contributions.  The increase in our PBO in 2020 was primarily attributable to actuarial losses due to the decrease in discount rates from year end 2019.  

The table below details the changes in other comprehensive income (loss) during 2018, 2019 and 2020.

Summary of Assumptions Used to Determine Net Benefit Obligation

The weighted-average rate assumptions used in determining the net periodic pension cost for 2018, 2019 and 2020 are presented in the table below.  Such weighted-average discount rates were determined using the projected benefit obligations as of the beginning of each year and the weighted-average long-term return on plan assets was determined using the fair value of plan assets as of the beginning of each year.
