Investment return assumption
Investment Consultant ALM Study April 2012

ALM Update Q1 2013
Assumptions Recommended
by Actuarial Study
Expected Investment Return 8.00% 7.40% 7.75%
Expected Inflation 2.30% 2.40% 2.75%
Total Expected Real Return 5.70% 5.00% 5.00%
Based on the latest available Public Fund Survey data, the median expected real return assumption was 4.50% (based on 126 plans with $2.7 trillion in plan assets).
When comparing the investment consultant’s expected investment returns to those utilized in the University’s actuarial study, it is important to look at the real return expectations (gross expected returns less assumed inflation). Due to different time horizons, inflation assumptions will often be different between the two.

Amortization of Unfunded Liability
As of 10/1/2012Actuarial Accrued Liability $3.3 billionActuarial Value of Assets $2.8 billionUnfunded Liability $0.5 billion
• The Retirement Plan has historically amortized any unfunded liability over a 20 year period using the level dollar method.
• A switch to a 30 year amortization period was reviewed. While a switch could result in a 0.30% reduction in the required contribution rate in the near term, it would ultimately lead to higher annual costs for the Plan in later years.

Upcoming GASB Changes
• Beginning in FY 2014, the annual income statement expense associated with the Retirement Plan will be largely governed by new Governmental Accounting Standards Board guidance for public pension plans.
• The actuarial assumptions just discussed will continue to drive the amount of required contributions to the Plan each year.
• Currently, the required contribution and the annual expense are the same; that will no longer be the case going forward.
