10. OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) – CONTINUED
Required Supplementary Information
The Schedule of Funding Progress immediately following the notes to the financial statements
presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing
or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.
The projection of future benefit payments for an ongoing plan involves estimates of the value of
reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future.
Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend.
Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions
of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past
expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress,
presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements,
presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing
or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan
as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the
time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer
and plan members to that point. Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported
amounts and assumptions about the probability of events far into the future. Actuarially determined
amounts are subject to continual revision as results are compared to past expectations and new
estimates are made about the future. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include
techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued
liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the
calculations.
In the latest actuarial valuation as of October 1, 2014, the Individual Entry Age Normal Cost Method
(level percentage of pay) was used. The actuarial assumptions included a 4% investment rate of
return and an annual healthcare costs trend rate of 8.0% in FY15, which will be decreased to an
ultimate rate of 4.50% beginning in fiscal year ending September 30, 2020. The investment rate of
return included a 3% inflation assumption. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being
amortized in a closed amortization, calculated as a level percent of payroll over a thirty year period.
11. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of
assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; employee medical benefits and natural
disasters. The City purchases insurance through commercial carriers. Insurance coverage for
workers’ compensation, liability, casualty, inland marine, flood, police accidental death, public
officials’ bonds, fiduciary and fuel tanks were purchased from several commercial carriers during
the year ended September 30, 2015. There has been no significant reduction in insurance coverage
from the prior year. Commercial insurance coverage has been sufficient to cover all claims made in
the prior three fiscal years.
