<br />The funded ratio (the ratio of the Actuarial Value of Assets divided by the Actuarial Accrued
<br />Liability) is 13.5% as of April 1, 2012. Covered payroll as of July 1, 2012 was reported to be
<br />$22,837,200. The Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability, expressed as a percentage of
<br />payroll, is 161.2% as of this date.
<br />Changes Since the Prior Valuation
<br />Even if all of our previous assumptions were met exactly as projected, liabilities generally
<br />increase over time as active employees get closer to the date their benefits are expected to
<br />begin. Of course, our prior assumptions were not exactly realized. Employee terminations
<br />and retirements were much higher than average in 2011. Current healthcare premiums are
<br />slightly lower than what we had projected, particularly for retirees covered by Medicare.
