Answer: Net Pension liability of $29 million

Explanation:

A net pension liability will be reported when the obligations of the employer which is the Projected benefit obligation, exceeds the Plan assets because the company has less resources than required to satisfy its obligations.

A net pension asset will be when the Projected Benefit Obligation (PBO) is less than the Plan assets.
