1.2% × Service years × Final year’s salary
Stanley Mills was hired by Clark at the beginning of 1999. Mills is expected to retire at the end of 2043 after 45 years of service. His retirement is expected to span 15 years. At the end of 2018, 20 years after being hired, his salary is $80,000. The company’s actuary projects Mills’s salary to be $270,000 at retirement. The actuary’s discount rate is 7%.
Required:
1. Estimate the amount of Stanley Mills’s annual retirement payments for the 15 retirement years earned as of the end of 2018.
2. Suppose Clark’s pension plan permits a lump-sum payment at retirement in lieu of annuity payments. Determine the lump-sum equivalent as the present value as of the retirement date of annuity payments during the retirement period.
3. What is the company’s projected benefit obligation at the end of 2018 with respect to Stanley Mills?
4. Even though pension accounting centers on the PBO calculation, the ABO still must be disclosed in the pension disclosure note. What is the company’s accumulated benefit obligation at the end of 2018 with respect to Stanley Mills?
5. If we assume no estimates change in the meantime, what is the company’s projected benefit obligation at the end of 2019 with respect to Stanley Mills?
6. What portion of the 2019 increase in the PBO is attributable to 2019 service (the service cost component of pension expense) and to accrued interest (the interest cost component of pension expense)?

Carlsbad Corporation's sales are expected to increase from $5 million in 2021 to $6 million in 2022, or by 20%. Its assets totaled $2 million at the end of 2021. Carlsbad is at full
capacity, so its asset must grow in proportion to projected sales. At the end of 2021, current liabilities are $1 million, consisting of $250,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes
payable, and $250,000 of accrued liabilities. Its profit margin is forecasted to be 3%.
