(a) As a result of the spinoff of PPL Energy Supply, amounts in AOCI were allocated to certain former active and inactive employees of PPL Energy Supply and included in the distribution. See Note 8 for additional details.

(b) WPD is not subject to accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation as prescribed by GAAP. As a result, WPD does not record regulatory assets/liabilities.

Schedule of Amounts Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income and Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

For PPL's U.S. pension benefits and for other postretirement benefits, the amounts recognized in OCI and regulatory assets/liabilities for the years ended December 31 were as follows:

	U.S. Pension Benefits								Other Postretirement Benefits
	2016			2015			2014		2016		2015			2014
OCI	$	236		$	(269	)	$	319	$	7	$	12		$	7

Schedule of Amounts to be Amortized from AOCI and Regulatory Assets/Liabilities in Next Fiscal Year

The estimated amounts to be amortized from AOCI and regulatory assets/liabilities into net periodic defined benefit costs in 2017 are as follows:

	Pension Benefits
	U.S.		U.K.
Prior service cost (credit)	$	9	$	—
Actuarial (gain) loss	67		141

AOCI	$	18	$	141
Regulatory assets/liabilities	58		—
Total	$	76	$	141

Schedule of Net Periodic Defined Benefit Costs Included in Income Statement

The following net periodic defined benefit costs (credits) were charged to operating expense or regulatory assets, excluding amounts charged to construction and other non-expense accounts. The U.K. pension benefits apply to PPL only.

	Pension Benefits
	U.S.						U.K.									Other Postretirement Benefits
	2016		2015		2014		2016			2015			2014			2016		2015		2014
PPL	$	53	$	71	$	45	$	(95	)	$	(21	)	$	(9	)	$	7	$	8	$	10
PPL Electric (a)	10		15		12											1		—		2
LKE (b)	24		37		17											6		8		7
LG&E (b)	8		12		5											3		4		4
KU (a) (b)	5		9		3											2		2		2

(a) PPL Electric and KU do not directly sponsor any defined benefit plans. PPL Electric and KU were allocated these costs of defined benefit plans sponsored by PPL Services (for PPL Electric) and by LKE (for KU), based on their participation in those plans, which management believes are reasonable.

(b) As a result of the 2014 Kentucky rate case settlement that became effective July 1, 2015, the difference between net periodic defined benefit costs calculated in accordance with LKE's, LG&E's and KU's pension accounting policy and the net periodic defined benefit costs calculated using a 15 year amortization period for gains and losses is recorded as a regulatory asset. Of the costs charged to operating expense or regulatory assets, excluding amounts charged to construction and other non-expense accounts, $3 million for LG&E and $2 million for KU were recorded as regulatory assets in 2016 and $4 million for LG&E and $1 million for KU were recorded as regulatory assets in 2015.

Defined Benefit Plan Assumptions and Impact of One Point Change on Postretirement Plans

The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the valuation of the benefit obligations at December 31. The U.K. pension benefits apply to PPL only.

	Pension Benefits
	U.S.				U.K.				Other Postretirement Benefits
	2016		2015		2016		2015		2016		2015
PPL
Discount rate	4.21	%	4.59	%	2.87	%	3.68	%	4.11	%	4.48	%
Rate of compensation increase	3.95	%	3.93	%	3.50	%	4.00	%	3.92	%	3.91	%
LKE

Rate of compensation increase	3.50	%	3.50	%					3.50	%	3.50	%
LG&E
Discount rate	4.13	%	4.49	%

The following weighted-average assumptions were used to determine the net periodic defined benefit costs for the years ended December 31. The U.K. pension benefits apply to PPL only.

	Pension Benefits
	U.S.						U.K.						Other Postretirement Benefits
	2016		2015		2014		2016		2015		2014		2016		2015		2014
PPL

Expected return on plan assets (a)	7.00	%	7.00	%	7.00	%	7.20	%	7.19	%	7.19	%	6.11	%	6.06	%	5.96	%
LKE
Discount rate	4.56	%	4.25	%	5.18	%							4.49	%	4.06	%	4.91	%
Rate of compensation increase	3.50	%	3.50	%	4.00	%							3.50	%	3.50	%	4.00	%
Expected return on plan assets (a)	7.00	%	7.00	%	7.00	%							6.82	%	6.82	%	6.75	%
LG&E
Discount rate	4.49	%	4.20	%	5.13	%
Expected return on plan assets (a)	7.00	%	7.00	%	7.00	%

(a) The expected long-term rates of return for pension and other postretirement benefits are based on management's projections using a best-estimate of expected returns, volatilities and correlations for each asset class. Each plan's specific current and expected asset allocations are also considered in developing a reasonable return assumption.

(b) As of January 1, 2016, WPD began using individual spot rates from the yield curve used to discount the benefit obligation to measure service cost and interest cost. PPL's U.S. plans use a single discount rate derived from an individual bond matching model to measure the benefit obligation, service cost and interest cost. See Note 1 for additional details.

The following table provides the assumed health care cost trend rates for the years ended December 31:

	2016		2015		2014
PPL and LKE
Health care cost trend rate assumed for next year
– obligations	7.0	%	6.8	%	7.2	%
– cost	6.8	%	7.2	%	7.6	%
Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate trend rate)
– obligations	5.0	%	5.0	%	5.0	%
– cost	5.0	%	5.0	%	5.0	%
Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate
– obligations	2022		2020		2020
– cost	2020		2020		2020

A one percentage point change in the assumed health care costs trend rate assumption would have had the following effects on the other postretirement benefit plans in 2016:

	One Percentage Point
	Increase		Decrease
Effect on accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
PPL	$	5	$	(5	)
LKE	4		(4		)

Defined Benefit Plan Assumptions and Impact of One Point Change on Postretirement Plans

The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the valuation of the benefit obligations at December 31. The U.K. pension benefits apply to PPL only.

	Pension Benefits
	U.S.				U.K.				Other Postretirement Benefits
	2016		2015		2016		2015		2016		2015

LG&E
Discount rate	4.49	%	4.20	%	5.13	%
Expected return on plan assets (a)	7.00	%	7.00	%	7.00	%

(a) The expected long-term rates of return for pension and other postretirement benefits are based on management's projections using a best-estimate of expected returns, volatilities and correlations for each asset class. Each plan's specific current and expected asset allocations are also considered in developing a reasonable return assumption.

(b) As of January 1, 2016, WPD began using individual spot rates from the yield curve used to discount the benefit obligation to measure service cost and interest cost. PPL's U.S. plans use a single discount rate derived from an individual bond matching model to measure the benefit obligation, service cost and interest cost. See Note 1 for additional details.

The following table provides the assumed health care cost trend rates for the years ended December 31:

	2016		2015		2014
PPL and LKE
Health care cost trend rate assumed for next year
– obligations	7.0	%	6.8	%	7.2	%
– cost	6.8	%	7.2	%	7.6	%
Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate trend rate)
– obligations	5.0	%	5.0	%	5.0	%
– cost	5.0	%	5.0	%	5.0	%
Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate
– obligations	2022		2020		2020
– cost	2020		2020		2020

A one percentage point change in the assumed health care costs trend rate assumption would have had the following effects on the other postretirement benefit plans in 2016:

	One Percentage Point
	Increase		Decrease
Effect on accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
PPL	$	5	$	(5	)

(a) The pension plans were amended in December 2015 to allow active participants and terminated vested participants who had not previously elected a form of payment of their benefit to elect to receive their accrued pension benefit as a one-time lump-sum payment effective January 1, 2016. The projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2015 increased by $19 million as a result of the amendment. Gross benefits paid by the plans include $53 million of lump-sum cash payments made to participants during 2016 in connection with these offerings.

Each plan's specific current and expected asset allocations are also considered in developing a reasonable return assumption.

(b) As of January 1, 2016, WPD began using individual spot rates from the yield curve used to discount the benefit obligation to measure service cost and interest cost. PPL's U.S. plans use a single discount rate derived from an individual bond matching model to measure the benefit obligation, service cost and interest cost. See Note 1 for additional details.
