SIR AGE

A

*DBPP calculation:

  • Svc cost

- actual - % rate or BASE
..BB+contr+actual-pmt=EB

*A = unam PSC/avg svc life

*(G) = unam G/L
           (10%PBO/FVP)
        -------------------
        excess
        /avg svc life
     -------------------
        = amort. of unam G/L

*E = (PBO - FV plan A)
————————-
= initial unfunded obl.
/15Y or avg job life
