Use of the master trusts permits the commingling of the trust assets of the pension plans for investment and administrative purposes.

The fair value of the trusts’ assets is determined by the trustee and certain investment managers. For each trust, the trustee calculates a daily earnings factor, including realized and unrealized gains or losses, collected and accrued income, and administrative expenses, and allocates earnings to each plan in the master trusts on a pro rata basis. Effective January 1, 2022, the assets of the remaining cash balance pension plan held in a second master trust were merged with and into a master trust that holds the assets of the six final average pay defined benefit qualified pension plans.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Within each pension plan, Entergy Nuclear Operations’ beneficial interest in the plan assets is maintained by the plan's actuary and is updated quarterly.

employer to recognize on its balance sheet the funded status of its benefit plans. This is measured as the difference between plan assets at fair value and the benefit obligation. Entergy Nuclear Operations uses a December 31 measurement date for its pension and other postretirement plans. Employers are to record previously unrecognized gains and losses, prior service costs, and the remaining transition asset or obligation (that resulted from adopting prior pension and other postretirement benefits accounting standards) as comprehensive income. Accounting standards also require that changes in the funded status be recorded as other comprehensive income in the period in which the changes occur. </span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">With regard to pension and other postretirement costs, Entergy Nuclear Operations calculates the expected return on pension and other postretirement benefit plan assets by multiplying the long term expected rate of return on assets by the market-related value (MRV) of plan assets.
