BENEFIT PLANS

On December 19, 2011, the Executive Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors froze participant benefits (credited service and final average earnings) and entry into the Supplemental Executive Retirement Benefits Plan (SERP) effective December 31, 2011. This action constitutes a plan curtailment.
The plan liability was remeasured in conjunction with the curtailment using a 3.5% discount rate and participant final average earnings through the curtailment date. The plan was last remeasured at June 30, 2011, using a 4.5% discount rate. This latest remeasurement resulted in an actuarial loss (recorded in other comprehensive income) of $302 ($492 loss, net of income tax of $190).
The curtailment is reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as: 1) a reduction to the overall SERP liability (included in postemployment benefits) of $8,860, 2) a reduction to deferred tax assets of $3,411 and 3) an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $5,449. Prior service costs previously recorded through accumulated other comprehensive income were reclassified into the condensed statements of consolidated income ($3,117 gross expense, net of income tax of $1,200). The gross expense is recorded in selling, distribution and administrative expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
The following table provides summary disclosures of the net periodic postemployment costs recognized for the Company’s postemployment benefit plans:
