Hmm, I was leaning towards B, but I guess discounting short-term benefits doesn't make sense since they're usually paid out soon anyway. A seems like the clear winner here.
I think the correct answer is A. Short-term employee benefits don't require actuarial assumptions, which makes the accounting process straightforward. No risk of actuarial gains or losses either.
I agree with Malinda. Short-term employee benefits are not provided in exchange for the service of the employee, so it's easier to measure the obligation.
