(a)
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit income were partially offset by a deferral of $6 million and $7 million, respectively, due to a regulatory tracking mechanism for the difference between the level of such costs incurred by Ameren Missouri under GAAP and the level of such costs included in rates.
(b)
Includes $8 million pursuant to Ameren Missouri’s March 2020 electric rate order. See Note 2 – Rate and Regulatory Matters for additional information.
