Re: City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan
Dear Board:
We are pleased to present to the Board this report of the annual actuarial valuation of the City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan. Included are the related results for GASB Statements No. 67 and No. 68. The funding valuation was performed to determine whether the assets and contributions are sufficient to provide the prescribed benefits and to develop the appropriate funding requirements for the applicable plan year. The calculation of the liability for GASB results was performed for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of GASB Statements No. 67 and No. 68. Use of the results for other purposes may not be applicable and may produce significantly different results.
The valuations have been conducted in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices, including the applicable Actuarial Standards of Practice as issued by the Actuarial Standards Board, and reflect laws and regulations issued to date pursuant to the provisions of Chapters 112, 175, and 185, Florida Statutes, as well as applicable federal laws and regulations. In our opinion, the assumptions used in the valuations, as adopted by the Board of Trustees, represent reasonable expectations of anticipated plan experience. Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from the current measurements presented in this report for a variety of reasons including: changes in applicable laws, changes in plan provisions, changes in assumptions, or plan experience differing from expectations. Due to the limited scope of the valuations, we did not perform an analysis of the potential range of such future measurements.
In conducting the valuations, we have relied on personnel, plan design, and asset information supplied by the City of Titusville, financial reports prepared by the custodian bank, and the actuarial assumptions and methods described in the Actuarial Assumptions section of this report. While we cannot verify the accuracy of all this information, the supplied information was reviewed for consistency and reasonableness. As a result of this review, we have no reason to doubt the substantial accuracy of the information and believe that it has produced appropriate results. This information, along with any adjustments or modifications, is summarized in various sections of this report.

The total pension liability, net pension liability, and certain sensitivity information shown in this report are based on an actuarial valuation performed as of October 1, 2018. The total pension liability was rolled-forward from the valuation date to the plan’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2019 using generally accepted actuarial principles. It is our opinion that the assumptions used for this purpose are internally consistent, reasonable, and comply with the requirements under GASB No. 67 and No. 68.
The undersigned are familiar with the immediate and long-term aspects of pension valuations, and meet the Qualification Standards of the American Academy of Actuaries necessary to render the actuarial opinions contained herein. All of the sections of this report are considered an integral part of the actuarial opinions.
To our knowledge, no associate of Foster & Foster, Inc. working on valuations of the program has any direct financial interest or indirect material interest in the City of Titusville, nor does anyone at Foster & Foster, Inc. act as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan.

City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan FOSTER & FOSTER | 4
The regular annual actuarial valuation of the City of Titusville General Employees' Pension Plan, performed as of October 1, 2019, has been completed and the results are presented in this Report. The contribution amounts set forth herein are applicable to the plan/fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.
The contribution requirements, compared with those set forth in the October 1, 2018 actuarial valuation report, are as follows:
Valuation Date |
10/1/2019 |
10/1/2018 |
Applicable to Fiscal Year Ending |

$1,168,027 |
$1,687,245 |
¹ Reflects 50% of amount received in Calendar 2019. Pursuant to Ordinance 6-2017, the annual Chapter 175 and 185 Premium Tax Monies will be equally shared between the Membership Share Plan and City funding credit once the funded ratio (actuarial value of assets divided by the actuarial accrued liability) reaches or exceeds 90% as of the most recent actuarial valuation; this sharing will occur in the year following attainment of the 90% ratio. As of October 1, 2019, the funded ratio for this purpose is 91.8%. Accordingly, this sharing will first apply to State Contributions for fiscal year 2020.
² Please note that the City has access to a prepaid contribution of $143,447.08 that is available to offset a portion of the above stated requirements for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2020.
City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan FOSTER & FOSTER | 5
As you can see, the Minimum Required Contribution shows a decrease when compared to the results determined in the January 17, 2020 actuarial impact statement. The decrease is attributable to net favorable experience and the expiration of a charge component of the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability.
Plan experience was favorable overall on the basis of the plan's actuarial assumptions. The primary source of actuarial gain was an investment return of 9.53% (Actuarial Asset Basis) which exceeded the 7.75% assumption. This gain was offset in part by losses associated with inactive mortality experience and active mortality experience.

Plan Changes
Chapter 2019-21, Laws of Florida was signed into effect granting certain disability and pre-retirement death benefits to firefighters participating in an employer-sponsored retirement plan:
- Effective July 1, 2019, an additional presumption was added to the death in the line of duty section. “A firefighter shall be considered to have died in the line of duty if he or she dies as a result of cancer or circumstances that arise out of the treatment of cancer.”
- Effective July 1, 2019, an additional presumption was added to the disability in-line-of-duty presumption. “Diagnosis of cancer or the circumstances that arise out of the treatment of cancer. A firefighter shall be considered totally and permanently disabled in the line of duty if he or she meets the Plan’s definition of total and permanently disabled due to the diagnosis of cancer or circumstances that arise out of the treatment of cancer.
Please note that the benefit changes only relate to the disability and death benefits for the Pension Fund and do not provide for other additional benefits that are provided for in Florida Statutes Section 112.1816.
The plan was also amended with respect to in-service distributions and to establish a “DROP II” program. These additional changes did not result in a change to the plan’s funding requirements.
Actuarial Assumption/Method Changes
There have been no changes of actuarial assumptions or methods since the prior valuation other than an increase in the expected percentage of disabilities and pre-retirement deaths that are in line-of-duty, as a result of the plan change described above.

This actuarial valuation was prepared and completed by me or under my direct supervision, and I acknowledge responsibility for the results. To the best of my knowledge, the results are complete and accurate, and in my opinion, the techniques and assumptions used are reasonable and meet the requirements and intent of Part VII, Chapter 112, Florida Statutes. There is no benefit or expense to be provided by the plan and/or paid from the plan's assets for which liabilities or current costs have not been established or otherwise taken into account in the valuation. All known events or trends which may require a material increase in plan costs or required contribution rates have been taken into account in the valuation.

The above assumption rates were mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida. This law mandates the use of the assumptions used in either of the two most recent valuations of the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The above rates are those outlined in Milliman’s July 1, 2018 FRS valuation report for special risk employees. We feel this assumption sufficiently accommodates future mortality improvements.
90% of active deaths are assumed to be service-incurred. |
Interest Rate |
7.75% per year compounded annually, net of investment related expenses. This is supported by the target asset allocation of the trust and the expected long-term return by asset class. |
Salary Increases |
See table later in this section. This assumption was adopted as the result of the August 20, 2018 experience study. Assumptions for final salary loads are as follows:
For Members Eligible for Retirement on June 1, 2013:
Projected salary at retirement is increased 25% to account for non-regular compensation. |
City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan FOSTER & FOSTER | 17
Salary Increases (Cont'd) |
For Members not eligible for Normal Retirement on June 1, 2013 with at least 10 years of service as of that date:
The projected frozen benefit as of June 1, 2013 includes a 25% load for the final year included in the averaging period.
For Members with less than 10 years of service (and not eligible for Normal Retirement) as of June 1, 2013:
No final salary load is assumed. |
Payroll Growth |
0.00% for purposes of amortizing the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability. Level dollar amortization of the UAAL was adopted as a result of the August 20, 2018 experience study. |
Administrative Expenses |
$99,903 annually, based on the average of actual expenses incurred in the prior two fiscal years. Previously, the actual expense in the prior fiscal year was used. Using a two-year average results in a less volatile estimate than the prior method. |
Amortization Method |
New UAAL amortization bases are established according to the following amortization periods:
Experience: 10 Years.
Assumption/Method Changes: 20 Years.
Benefit Changes: 30 Years. |
Retirement Age (Normal and Early) |
See tables later in this section. This assumption was adopted as the result of the August 20, 2018 experience study. |
Termination Rate |
See table later in this section. This assumption was adopted as the result of the August 20, 2018 experience study. |
Disability Rate |
See table later in this section. This assumption was adopted as the result of the August 20, 2018 experience study. 90% of Disability retirements are assumed to be service-related. |

Asset Smoothing Methodology |
The Actuarial Value of Assets is brought forward using the historical four-year geometric average of Market Value Returns (net-of-fees). Over time, this may result in an immaterial bias that is above or below the Market Value of Assets. |
Funding Method |
Entry Age Normal Actuarial Cost Method. The following loads are applied for determination of the Sponsor funding requirement:
Interest – A half year, based on the current 7.75% assumption.
Salary – A full year, based on the current 4.55% assumption. |

Total Annual Payroll is the projected annual rate of pay as of the valuation date for all covered
Members.
Present Value of Benefits is the single sum value on the valuation date of all future benefits to be paid to current Members, Retirees, Beneficiaries, Disability Retirees and Vested Terminations.
Total Required Contribution is equal to the Normal Cost plus an amount sufficient to amortize the Unfunded Accrued Liability over no more than 30 years. The required amount is adjusted for interest according to the timing of contributions during the year.
Entry Age Normal Cost Method - Under this method, the normal cost is the sum of the individual normal costs for all active participants. For an active participant, the normal cost is the participant’s normal cost accrual rate, multiplied by the participant’s current compensation.
- The normal cost accrual rate equals:
- the present value of future benefits for the participant, determined as of the participant’s entry age, divided by
- the present value of the compensation expected to be paid to the participant for each year of the participant’s anticipated future service, determined as of the participant’s entry age.
- In calculating the present value of future compensation, the salary scale is applied both retrospectively and prospectively to estimate compensation in years prior to and subsequent to the valuation year based on the compensation used for the valuation.
- The accrued liability is the sum of the individual accrued liabilities for all participants and beneficiaries. A participant’s accrued liability equals the present value, at the participant’s attained age, of future benefits less the present value at the participant’s attained age of the individual normal costs payable in the future. A beneficiary’s accrued liability equals the present value, at the beneficiary’s attained age, of future benefits. The unfunded accrued liability equals the total accrued liability less the actuarial value of assets.
- Under this method, the entry age used for each active participant is the participant’s age at the time he or she would have commenced participation if the plan had always been in existence under current terms, or the age as of which he or she first earns service credits for purposes of benefit accrual under the current terms of the plan.

ASOP No. 51, Assessment and Disclosure of Risk Associated with Measuring Pension Obligations and Determining Pension Plan Contributions, states that the actuary should identify risks that, in the actuary’s professional judgment, may reasonably be anticipated to significantly affect the plan’s future financial condition.
Throughout this report, actuarial results are determined using various actuarial assumptions. These results are based on the premise that all future plan experience will align with the plan’s actuarial assumptions; however, there is no guarantee that actual plan experience will align with the plan’s assumptions. It is possible that actual plan experience will differ from anticipated experience in an unfavorable manner that will negatively impact the plan’s funded position.
Below are examples of ways in which plan experience can deviate from assumptions and the potential impact of that deviation. Typically, this results in an actuarial gain or loss representing the current-year financial impact on the plan’s unfunded liability of the experience differing from assumptions; this gain or loss is amortized over a period of time determined by the plan’s amortization method. When assumptions are selected that adequately reflect plan experience, gains and losses typically offset one another in the long term, resulting in a relatively low impact on the plan’s contribution requirements associated with plan experience. When assumptions are too optimistic, losses can accumulate over time and the plan’s amortization payment could potentially grow to an unmanageable level.
- Investment Return: When the rate of return on the Actuarial Value of Assets falls short of the assumption, this produces a loss representing assumed investment earnings that were not realized. Further, it is unlikely that the plan will experience a scenario that matches the assumed return in each year as capital markets can be volatile from year to year. Therefore, contribution amounts can vary in the future.
- Salary Increases: When a plan participant experiences a salary increase that was greater than assumed, this produces a loss representing the cost of an increase in anticipated plan benefits for the participant as compared to the previous year. The total gain or loss associated with salary increases for the plan is the sum of salary gains and losses for all active participants.
- Demographic Assumptions: Actuarial results take into account various potential events that could happen to a plan participant, such as retirement, termination, disability, and death. Each of these potential events is assigned a liability based on the likelihood of the event and the financial consequence of the event for the plan. Accordingly, actuarial liabilities reflect a blend of financial consequences associated with various possible outcomes (such as retirement at one of various possible ages). Once the outcome is known (e.g. the participant retires) the liability is adjusted to reflect the known outcome. This adjustment produces a gain or loss depending on whether the outcome was more or less favorable than other outcomes that could have occurred.

DISCUSSION OF RISK (Cont'd)
Impact of Plan Maturity on Risk
For newer pension plans, most of the participants and associated liabilities are related to active members who have not yet reached retirement age. As pension plans continue in operation and active members reach retirement ages, liabilities begin to shift from being primarily related to active members to being shared amongst active and retired members. Plan maturity is a measure of the extent to which this shift has occurred. It is important to understand that plan maturity can have an impact on risk tolerance and the overall risk characteristics of the plan. For example, closed plans with a large amount of retired liability do not have as long of a time horizon to recover from losses (such as losses on investments due to lower than expected investment returns) as plans where the majority of the liability is attributable to active members. For this reason, less tolerance for investment risk may be warranted for highly mature closed plans with a substantial inactive liability. Similarly, mature closed plans paying substantial retirement benefits resulting in a small positive or net negative cash flow can be more sensitive to near term investment volatility, particularly if the size of the fund is shrinking, which can result in less assets being available for investment in the market.
To assist with determining the maturity of the plan, we have provided some relevant metrics in the table following titled “Plan Maturity Measures and Other Risk Metrics”. Highlights of this information are discussed below:
- The Support Ratio, determined as the ratio of active to inactive members, has stayed about the same from October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2019, indicating that the plan's maturity level has not significantly changed during the period.
- The Accrued Liability Ratio, determined as the ratio of the Inactive Accrued Liability, which is the liability associated with members who are no longer employed but are due a benefit from the plan, to the Total Accrued Liability, is 75.0%. With a plan of this maturity, losses due to lower than expected investment returns or demographic factors may result in larger increases in contribution requirements than would be needed for a less mature plan. Please note Chapter 112,Florida Statutes, requires that the plan sponsor contributes the minimum required contribution;thus, there is minimal solvency risk to the plan.
- The Funded Ratio, determined as the ratio of the Actuarial Value of Assets to the Total Accrued Liability, has increased from 86.2% on October 1, 2016 to 91.8% on October 1, 2019. The increase is due to paying off of the plan’s unfunded liability during the period, offset by assumption changes implemented during the period.
- The Net Cash Flow Ratio, determined as the ratio of the Net Cash Flow (contributions minus benefit payments and administrative expenses) to the Market Value of Assets, stayed approximately the same from October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2019. The current Net Cash Flow Ratio of -2.7% indicates that contributions are not currently covering the plan's benefit payments and administrative expenses.
It is important to note that the actuary has identified the risks in this section as the most significant risks based on the characteristics of the plan and the nature of the project, however, it is not an exhaustive list of potential risks that could be considered. Additional advanced modeling, as well as the identification of additional risks, can be provided at the request of the audience addressed on page 2 of this report.

GASB 67 NET PENSION LIABILITY OF THE SPONSOR
The components of the Net Pension Liability of the Sponsor on September 30, 2019 were as follows:
Total Pension Liability = $67,378,861
Plan Fiduciary Net Position = $(62,614,414)
Sponsor's Net Pension Liability = $4,764,447
Plan Fiduciary Net Position as a percentage of Total Pension Liability = 92.93%
Actuarial Assumptions:
The Total Pension Liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of October 1, 2018 updated to September 30, 2019 using the following actuarial assumptions:
Inflation = 2.50%
Salary Increases = Service based
Discount Rate = 7.75%
Investment Rate of Return = 7.75%
Mortality Rate Healthy Active Lives:
Female: RP2000 Generational, 100% Combined Healthy White Collar, Scale BB.
Male: RP2000 Generational, 10% Combined Healthy White Collar / 90% Combined Healthy Blue Collar, Scale BB.
Mortality Rate Healthy Inactive Lives:
Female: RP2000 Generational, 100% Annuitant White Collar, Scale BB.
Male: RP2000 Generational, 10% Annuitant White Collar / 90% Annuitant Blue Collar, Scale BB.
Mortality Rate Disabled Lives:
Female: 60% RP2000 Disabled Female set forward two years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.
Male: 60% RP2000 Disabled Male setback four years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.
The above assumption rates were mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida. This law mandates the use of the assumptions used in either of the two most recent valuations of the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The above rates are those outlined in Milliman's July 1, 2018 FRS valuation report for special risk employees. We feel this assumption sufficiently accommodates future mortality improvements.
The most recent actuarial experience study used to review the other significant assumptions was dated August 17, 2018.
The Long-Term Expected Rate of Return on Pension Plan investments can be determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of Pension Plan investment expenses and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
For 2019 the inflation rate assumption of the investment advisor was 2.50%.
These ranges are combined to produce the Long-Term Expected Rate of Return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation.
Best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Pension Plan's target asset allocation as of September 30, 2019 are summarized in the following table:
Asset Class |
Long Term Expected Real Estate Rate of Return |
All Cap Value Equity |

Discount Rate:
The Discount Rate used to measure the Total Pension Liability was 7.75 percent.
The projection of cash flows used to determine the Discount Rate assumed that Plan Member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that Sponsor contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the Member rate. Based on those assumptions, the Pension Plan's Fiduciary Net Position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the Long-Term Expected Rate of Return on Pension Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the Total Pension Liability.

Notes to Schedule
Valuation Date: 10/01/2017
Actuarially determined contribution rates are calculated as of October 1, two years prior to the end of the fiscal year in which contributions are reported.
Methods and assumptions used to determine contribution rates:
Mortality Rate: |
Healthy Active Lives:
Female: RP2000 Generational, 100% Combined Healthy White Collar, Scale BB.
Male: RP2000 Generational, 10% Combined Healthy White Collar / 90% Combined Healthy Blue Collar, Scale BB.
Healthy Inactive Lives:
Female: RP2000 Generational, 100% Annuitant White Collar, Scale BB.
Male: RP2000 Generational, 10% Annuitant White Collar / 90% Annuitant Blue Collar, Scale BB.
Disabled Lives:
Female: 60% RP2000 Disabled Female set forward two years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.
Male: 60% RP2000 Disabled Male setback four years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.
The assumed rates of mortality were mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida. This law mandates the use of the assumptions used in either of the two most recent valuations of the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The above rates are those outlined in the July 1, 2016 FRS actuarial valuation report for special risk employees.
We feel this assumption sufficiently accommodates future mortality improvements. |
Interest Rate: |
8% per year compounded annually, net of investment related expenses. This assumption is supported by the Plan’s target asset allocation and expected long-term rate of return by asset class. |
City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan FOSTER & FOSTER | 48
Retirement Age: |
Those with at least 10 years of Service as of June 1, 2013: Earlier of age 55 and 8 years of service or 25 years of service, regardless of age. Also, any Member who has reached Normal Retirement is assumed to continue employment for one additional year.Those with less than 10 years of service as of June 1, 2013:Earlier of age 55 and 10 years of service or age 52 with 25 years of service. Also, any Member who has reached Normal Retirement is assumed to continue employment for one additional year.
We believe this assumption is reasonable based on the plan provisions. |
Early Retirement: |
Commencing at eligibility for Early Retirement (age 50 with 10 years of service), Members are assumed to retire with an immediate benefit at the rate of 5% per year. The assumption is 2% per year for Members who have at least 10 years of service on June 1, 2013. |
Payroll Growth: |
1.5% |
Disability Rates: |
See Table below (1205). 75% of Disability and Pre-Retirement Death retirements are assumed to be service-related. |
Termination Rates: |
See Table below (modified T-5). |
Salary Increases: |
6.0% per year until the assumed retirement age.For Members Eligible for Retirement on June 1, 2013: Projected salary at retirement is increased 25% to account for non-regular compensation.For Members not eligible for Normal Retirement on June 1, 2013 with at least 10 years of service as of that date:The projected frozen benefit as of June 1, 2013 includes a 25% load for the final year included in the averaging period.For Members with less than 10 years of service (and not eligible for Normal Retirement) as of June 1, 2013: No final salary load is assumed. |
Asset Smoothing Valuation Method: |
The Actuarial Value of Assets is brought forward using the historical four-year geometric average of Market Value Returns (net-of-fees). Over time, this may result in a deminis bias that is above or below the Market Value of Assets. |
Funding Method: |
Entry Age Normal Actuarial Cost Method. The following loads are applied for determination of the Sponsor funding requirement:Interest – A half year, based on the current 8.0% assumption.Salary – A full year, based on the current 6.0% assumption. |
Amortization Method: |
Level percentage of pay, closed. |
Remaining Amortization Period: |
28 Years (as of 10/01/2017). |

The above rates are those outlined in Milliman's July 1, 2018 FRS valuation report for special risk employees. We feel this assumption sufficiently accommodates future mortality improvements.
The most recent actuarial experience study used to review the other significant assumptions was dated August 17, 2018.
The Long-Term Expected Rate of Return on Pension Plan investments can be determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of Pension Plan investment expenses and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
For 2019 the inflation rate assumption of the investment advisor was 2.50%.
These ranges are combined to produce the Long-Term Expected Rate of Return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation.
Best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Pension Plan's target asset allocation as of September 30, 2019 are summarized in the following table:

Discount Rate:
The Discount Rate used to measure the Total Pension Liability was 7.75 percent.
The projection of cash flows used to determine the Discount Rate assumed that Plan Member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that Sponsor contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the Member rate. Based on those assumptions, the Pension Plan's Fiduciary Net Position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the Long-Term Expected Rate of Return on Pension Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the Total Pension Liability.

Notes to Schedule
Valuation Date: 10/01/2017
Actuarially determined contribution rates are calculated as of October 1, two years prior to the end of the fiscal year in which contributions are reported.
Methods and assumptions used to determine contribution rates:
Mortality Rate: |
Healthy Active Lives:
Female: RP2000 Generational, 100% Combined Healthy White Collar, Scale BB.
Male: RP2000 Generational, 10% Combined Healthy White Collar / 90% Combined Healthy Blue Collar, Scale BB.
Healthy Inactive Lives:
Female: RP2000 Generational, 100% Annuitant White Collar, Scale BB.
Male: RP2000 Generational, 10% Annuitant White Collar / 90% Annuitant Blue Collar, Scale BB.
Disabled Lives:
Female: 60% RP2000 Disabled Female set forward two years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.
Male: 60% RP2000 Disabled Male setback four years / 40% Annuitant White Collar with no setback, no projection scale.
The assumed rates of mortality were mandated by Chapter 2015-157, Laws of Florida. This law mandates the use of the assumptions used in either of the two most recent valuations of the Florida Retirement System (FRS). The above rates are those outlined in the July 1, 2016 FRS actuarial valuation report for special risk employees.
We feel this assumption sufficiently accommodates future mortality improvements. |
Interest Rate: |
8% per year compounded annually, net of investment related expenses. This assumption is supported by the Plan’s target asset allocation and expected long-term rate of return by asset class. |
City of Titusville Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension Plan FOSTER & FOSTER | 59
Retirement Age: |
Those with at least 10 years of Service as of June 1, 2013: Earlier of age 55 and 8 years of service or 25 years of service, regardless of age. Also, any Member who has reached Normal Retirement is assumed to continue employment for one additional year.Those with less than 10 years of service as of June 1, 2013:Earlier of age 55 and 10 years of service or age 52 with 25 years of service. Also, any Member who has reached Normal Retirement is assumed to continue employment for one additional year.
We believe this assumption is reasonable based on the plan provisions. |
Early Retirement: |
Commencing at eligibility for Early Retirement (age 50 with 10 years of service), Members are assumed to retire with an immediate benefit at the rate of 5% per year. The assumption is 2% per year for Members who have at least 10 years of service on June 1, 2013. |
Payroll Growth: |
1.5% |
Disability Rates: |
See Table below (1205). 75% of Disability and Pre-Retirement Death retirements are assumed to be service-related. |
Termination Rates: |
See Table below (modified T-5). |
Salary Increases: |
6.0% per year until the assumed retirement age.For Members Eligible for Retirement on June 1, 2013: Projected salary at retirement is increased 25% to account for non-regular compensation.For Members not eligible for Normal Retirement on June 1, 2013 with at least 10 years of service as of that date:The projected frozen benefit as of June 1, 2013 includes a 25% load for the final year included in the averaging period.For Members with less than 10 years of service (and not eligible for Normal Retirement) as of June 1, 2013: No final salary load is assumed. |
Asset Smoothing Valuation Method: |
The Actuarial Value of Assets is brought forward using the historical four-year geometric average of Market Value Returns (net-of-fees). Over time, this may result in a deminis bias that is above or below the Market Value of Assets. |
Funding Method: |
Entry Age Normal Actuarial Cost Method. The following loads are applied for determination of the Sponsor funding requirement:Interest – A half year, based on the current 8.0% assumption.Salary – A full year, based on the current 6.0% assumption. |
Amortization Method: |
Level percentage of pay, closed. |
Remaining Amortization Period: |
28 Years (as of 10/01/2017). |
