Pension Plan

The Company has a non-contributory defined benefit retirement plan covering substantially all its employees which is qualified under the Internal Revenue Code (the Plan). In general, employees can receive an amount per month equal to 0.8% multiplied by their years of service (up to a maximum of 35 years of service) multiplied by their average monthly earnings (based on earnings during the five years preceding retirement), up to a specified maximum of $850 per month for life assuming normal retirement at age 65. Upon the employee’s death, 50% of the monthly benefit is payable to the employee’s spouse for life. The Company’s policy is to contribute the amounts allowable under Internal Revenue Service regulations.

 

The investment policy of the Company for its pension plan is to maximize value within the context of providing benefit security for Plan participants. The Plan assets are invested in a fixed income investment account.

 

The Company has assumed, based upon high quality corporate bond yields with similar maturities as the benefit obligation, AA rated or higher, that its assumed discount rate will be 4.50% as of June 30, 2013, which is higher than the assumed discount rate of 3.75% as of June 30, 2012. The Company’s management conducts an analysis which includes a review of plan asset investments and projected future performance of those investments to determine the plan’s assumed long-term rate of return.

 

The Company expects to continue to contribute within the range of legally acceptable contributions as identified by the Plan’s enrolled actuary. The Company made cash contributions to the Plan of approximately $124,000 and $100,000 in fiscal years 2013 and 2012 respectively. The estimated fiscal year 2014 minimum contributions to the Plan are approximately $133,000.

Fair Value of Plan Assets

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. an exit price). See Note 1-M, “Fair Value Measurements,” for a description of the fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

 

All of the Plan’s investments are in fixed funds with guaranteed interest rates which are valued using evaluated bid prices based on a compilation of observable market information or a broker quote in a non-active market. Inputs used vary by type of security, but include spreads, yields, rate benchmarks, rate of prepayment, cash flows, rating changes and collateral performance and type. All fixed income funds are included as a Level 3 measurement.

 

The following table sets forth a summary of changes of fair value of the Retirement Plan’s Level 3 assets for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.
