Costing the gold watch

Article Abstract:

Pensions are included in employee compensation packages. Defined benefit plans (DBPs) call for the employer to pay 2% of an employee's average last five-year salary for every year the employee has worked. Defined contribution plans (DCPs), on the other hand, call for an employer to contribute a constant amount per employee annually or an amount equal to a percentage of an employee's salary. The employer bears more of the investment risks in both cases. Should the firm's assets prove to be insufficient to finance the pensions, then the employer will have to fill the shortfall.
