Year 1 –Done!
Year 2 – New Spreadsheet
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 4
1) From the PEFI – your employer allocation % -both beginning and ending.
2) Amount of your employer contributionssubsequent to the plan measurement date of 6/30.
3) Your amortization schedules for the prior year changes in proportionate share.
4) Amount of your employer contributions for your fiscal year.
For each plan – you will need
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 5
For PERS 1 (and TRS 1), you may need two allocation percentages – the regular employer allocation and the Plan 1 UAAL allocation.
Both percentages can be added together –they are not separate plans.
Employer allocation %

• Reconciling items, like timing differences, are OK.
• Provides information needed to reconcile the change in the net pension liability to pension expense.
Reconcile your
contributions reported in
the DRS PEFI to your
accounting system.

•Process date is generally the day after the transmittal date.
•Transmittal date can be up to 15 days after the reporting date.
For the PEFI, DRS
calculates contributions based on the process date;
not the reporting
date.

• RCW 41.45.060
• Affects deferred outflows for employer’s contributions subsequent to the measurement date.
• Affects pension expense for each plan.
• Affects amounts reported in RSI.
A significant portion of PERS 2/3, SERS 2/3,
and PSERS 2 employer
contributions actually go to
PERS 1.
Contributions
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 11
PERS 2/3 – employer contribution rate = 11.18%
• 6.23% - PERS 2/3
• 4.77% - PERS 1 (UAAL)
• .18% - admin fee
• 11.18% - Total
PSERS 2 – employer contribution rate = 11.54%
• 6.59% - PSERS
• 4.77% - PERS 1 (UAAL)
• .18% - admin fee
• 11.54% - Total
Contributions

Question #1
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 15
True or False?

oTrue
oFalse
Question #1
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 16

W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 17
• Multiply the collective pension amounts from the PEFI by your individual employer allocation percentage.
• Don’t forget – For PERS 1 (and TRS 1) you need both the regular employer allocation and the Plan 1 UAAL allocation.
• Note that the spreadsheet shows debits as positive amounts and (credits) as negative amounts.
Step 1 –Calculate and record your share of the current year
collective pension
amounts.
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 18
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 19
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 20
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 21
• Each plan spreadsheet includes a table to calculate a deferred outflow (debit) or deferred inflow (credit).
• The change is calculated as of the beginning of the period.
• For PERS 1 and LEOFF 1 –recognition period is only 1 year, so no need to record and amortize the changes.
Step 2 –Calculate
your current year change
in proportionate
share.
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 22
Calculate your change in proportionate share
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 23
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 24
• PERS 2/3, PSERS, LEOFF 2 –spreadsheets include sample amortization tables.
• 2016 data is populated from Step 2.
• You must enter your 2015 data.
Step 3 –Amortize the current and prior years’ changes in
proportionate share.
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 25
Calculate amortization
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 26
Record amortization
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 27
The provisions of GASB statements “need not be applied to immaterial items.”
Consider adopting an amortization threshold for DO/DI related to changes in proportionate share, similar to setting a capitalization threshold for capital assets.
The threshold should be applied at the individual plan level and should be immaterial to pension expense.
Changes in proportionate share
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 28
For example – look at PSERS worksheet:
Do you really need to amortize $403 over 7 years?
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 29
DRS includes amortization in the calculations of plan level DO/DI:
• Differences between actual and projected earnings on plan investments
• Differences between expected and actual experience
• Changes of assumptions
Employers should not record additional amortization for these!
LESSON

Don’t do this
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 31
• The amounts are for each plan as a whole
• You must allocate to the correct funds and activities for reporting in the financial statements.

•Reconcile the annual change in the net pension liability/asset to pension expense.
Are the numbers
reasonable?
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 34
LESSON
That’s not pension expense; that’s an adjustment to pension expense:
Net this adjustment with your actual contributions for the year to calculate pension expense.

Calculate pension expense

Compare to expected pension expense

Multiply total contributions excluded from allocations by your employer %
Excluded contributions
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 39
• The State, as a non-employer contributing entity, has a legal obligation to make contributions to the plans (RCW 41.26.275)
• Employers report “state’s share of the pension asset associated with the employer.”
• Employers recognize pension expense (and revenue) for the “state’s share of pension expense that is associated with the employer.”

What goes in this table?
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 52
The amortization tables in the notes should report the amortization of all deferred
outflows and inflows,
not just the employer specific change in proportionate share.

• Amounts in the schedules are “layered” amortization.
• Multiply amounts in the PEFI schedules by your proportionate share.
Use the amortization tables in the
PEFI to prepare the
amortization tables in
your notes.

• Previous slide example:
• PERS 2/3 = $61,136
• PERS 1 = 46,858
GASB 68, paragraph 81.b - The RSI schedule
of employer contributions should report the amount of
contributions recognized by the pension plan.
• Previous slide example:
• PERS 2/3 = $987,666
• PERS 1 = $987,666
GASB 82, paragraph 5 -Covered payroll is the
payroll on which contributions to a
pension plan are based.
RSI
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 73
RSI has two different measures of covered payroll:
• Schedule of Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability – dated as of the measurement date(example – state plans = 6/30)
• Schedule of Employer Contributions – dated as of employer’s year end (example – 12/31)
It’s unlikely that the amount for Covered Payrollwould be the same on both schedules.

GASB 78 – Pensions Provided Through Certain Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plans
Example – a union sponsored plan
No pension liability or deferred outflows or deferred inflows
Pension expense = contributions to the plan

Non-governmental pension plans
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 80
Don’t make contributions for other entities under your ID number.
Employers who don’t have their own organization ID number should contact DRS ASAP and get one.
LESSON
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 81
Net pension assets are restricted assets –a component of restricted net position
Net pension liabilities, deferred outflows and deferred inflows related to pensions are unrestricted – components of unrestricted net position
LESSON
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 82
Local Plans - The net pension liability, deferred outflows and deferred inflows are not reported in the pension trust fund.
Pension liabilities are liabilities of the employer to the plan; not liabilities of the plan.
They are reported on the employer’s financial statements.
LESSON

GASB Statement No. 74 – Financial Reporting for OPEB Plans(supersedes GASB 43)
Effective for fiscal years ending in 2017
Establishes the financial reporting requirements for OPEB plans
GASB Statement No. 75 – Accounting and Financial Reporting for OPEB Plans (supersedes GASB 45)
Effective for fiscal years ending in 2018
Establishes the accounting and financial reporting requirements for OPEB plan sponsors/employers
Reminder: New GASB OPEB standards are effective soon
W a s h i n g t o n S t a t e A u d i t o r ’ s O f f i c e 84
The new OPEB standards mirror the new pension standards:
Liability on the statement of net position
Deferred outflows/inflows
Discount rate
The alternative valuation method is still allowed.
The implicit rate subsidy still applies.
OPEB: new standards
