Yellow Corp., Overland Park, Kan., expects a pension expense of $17 million this year, lower than the $24 million predicted at the end of 2002, according to its third-quarter report filed with the SEC. The lower forecast followed an actuarial valuation of the plans conducted in the first quarter, the report said.
The pension plans had about $249 million in assets on Dec. 31, 2002, according to its most recent annual report.
