[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 935309, member: 7966"] The charge was taken in the 4th Quarter of 2011... already incorporated in stock price and 12 month forward P/E. This charge is a mark to market change. Many companies are doing this to comply with the expected changes in standard Accounting practices. Honeywell did this a couple years ago. The intent is to ensure proper funding in more dynamic nature and disallow the smoothing out the ups and downs in funding using projections of expected ROI. [/QUOTE]
