Solution

The retirement benefit at 31 December 20X2 is calculated by subtracting the present value of defined benefit obligation from the fair value of defined benefit asset.

Step 1: Identify the present value of defined benefit obligation and the fair value of defined benefit asset. In this case, they are RM700 million and RM750 million respectively.

Step 2: Subtract the present value of defined benefit obligation from the fair value of defined benefit asset.

RM750 million (fair value of defined benefit asset) - RM700 million (present value of defined benefit obligation) = RM50 million

Therefore, the answer is: Net defined asset of RM50 million.
