SENSITIVITY OF NET PENSION LIABILITY TO THE SINGLE DISCOUNT RATE ASSUMPTION A single discount rate 7.25% was used to measure total pension liability. This single discount rate was based on expected rate return on pension plan investments 7.25%. The projection cash flows used to determine this single discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at current contribution rate that employer contributions will be made at rates equal to difference between total actuarially determined contribution rates member rate. Based on se assumptions, pension plan s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments current plan members. Therefore, long term expected rate return on pension plan investments (7.25%) was applied to all periods projected benefit payments to determine total pension liability. Regarding sensitivity net pension liability to changes in single discount rate, following presents plan s net pension liability, calculated using a single discount rate 7.25%, as well as what plan s net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a single discount rate that is 1 percentage point lower or 1 percentage point higher: Sensitivity Net Pension Liability to Single Discount Rate Assumption Current Single Discount 1% Decrease Rate Assumption 1% Increase 6.25% 7.25% 8.25% $2,445,564 $572,510 ($981,083) 13
