Question: for 2013 , did a .5% ( .5 % ) decrease in discount rate have a greater effect than a .5% ( .5 % ) decrease in expected long-term return on assets?
Evidence:
table_1: change in assumption ( a ) the .5% ( .5 % ) decrease in discount rate of estimatedincrease to 2013pensionexpense ( in millions ) is $ 21 ;
table_2: change in assumption ( a ) the .5% ( .5 % ) decrease in expected long-term return on assets of estimatedincrease to 2013pensionexpense ( in millions ) is $ 19 ;
