2. Valuation Summary 

1. Long-Term Funding 

O ' Sul l iva n 

Associates Inc. 

Projected annual contributions of $2.01 million ($13.39 per hour) fall sho1t of the Plan 's total annual cost of benefits of $5.02 million ($33.47 per hour). This leaves a negative margin of $2.96 

million ($19.71 per hour). Therefore, the Plan's finances are cunently not meeting the 15-year 

ftmding policy. At the cun ent level of ftmding the Plan is projected to go insolvent in the Plan 

Yeru· ending 12/31/2023. 

2. Margin 

The mru·gin has decreased by $7.53 from negative $12.55 to negative $20.08 over last yeru·. The 

mru·gin is explained in Section 4. 

3. Pension Protection Act 

The Pension Protection Act (PP A) requires that multiemployer plans disclose the percent level of 

ftmding using the acturu·ial value of assets. As of 12/31/2014 the Plan's ftmding level is 33.7%. 

The ftmded level is below 65% and the Plan is projected to have a ftmding deficiency within four 

yeru·s. As a result, the Plan continues to remain in the "red" zone or C1itical Status. 

Each yeru· the Rehabilitation Plan needs to be monitored and updated if it is not providing the anticipated ftmding progress. The Rehabilitation Plan adopted by the Trustees is considered a "safety 

valve" plan as allowed by §432(e)(3)(A)(ii). This section provides that the Trustees consider all 

reasonable measures to exit the Red Zone by the end of the Rehabilitation Period, and if the Plan 

cannot exit the Red Zone in that time frame to consider all reasonable measures to exit at a later 

time or to forestall insolvency. The Rehabilitation Plan and future projections are detailed in Section 4.6. 

4. Assumptions 

We changed the m01t ality table from RP- 2000 to the RP- 2014 Table. 

We decreased the total hours of employment assumption from 192,000 hours to 150,000 hours.

4. Plan Cost 

4.1 Annual Plan Cost and Margin 

O ' Sulliva n 

Associates Inc. 

There are two component costs to fimding a pension plan: the cost of benefits earn ed in the year, and the 

amo1tization of the tmfimded liability. The costs above ar·e calculated consistent with a fimding policy of 

paying off the tmfimded liability over 15 year·s assuming asset retmn of 6.75% rumually. 

The mar·gin, fotmd on Line C below, indicates that the Plan requires and additional $20.08 per hour to pay 

for all future benefits. 

There ar·e many actuar·ial measures and statistics to measure the state of the Plan's fimding. The margin is 

designed to provide a single simplified statistic for a trustee to get a sense for the Plan's level of fimding. 

As long as the margin is positive it is a strong indication that the cun ent benefits ar·e affordable on a longteim basis. If negative, it is an indication that the overall ftmding may need to be improved before benefits 

ar·e affordable.

O ' Sulliva n 

Associates Inc. 

Gain/loss analysis is one of the most impo1tant tools available to an actuary to ensure that the actuary's model of the Plan 's ftmding is accurate. The exhibit above shows the total gainl(loss) broken down into three 

components: assets, expenses, and demographic assumptions. 

The gain on assets is ve1y unpredictable due to the tmpredictable retmn s on the mar·ket value of assets. 

Moreover, the gainl(loss) on assets is greatly influenced by the smoothing method. The pattem of asset gains 

is discussed later in this repo1t . 

After itemizing the gainl(loss) on assets and administrative expenses, what remains is the gainl(loss) on all 

the other demographic assumptions including retirement, tmn over, disability, and m01t ality rates. Over time, 

to remain confident in the ft1ture ftmding, it is impo1tant that the gains and losses on the demographic assumptions average zero, or at least a relatively small number. The Plan expe1ienced more deaths than anticipated during in the past year, which accounted for a significant po1tion of this year·'s gain. 

The past five year·s the Plan has averaged a small loss. We will continue to monitor this expe1ience and recommend assumption changes as necessa1y.

The average retllln on the market value of assets for the 15 years ending December 31,2014 is 4.9%. The 

histo1ically low retllln in 2008 has largely impacted this average, which is much lower than the assumed rate 

of6.75%. 

The pe1fo1mance of the acturuial and market value of assets as measured by the rate of retllln over the last 15 

years is lower than the market value perfo1mance. As seen in the table above, the market value retllln in 2014 

was 6.8%. On an actuarial basis, this 2014 retllln will be recognized over a five-year period.

The Funded Percentage is a statistic conunonly followed by Tmstees. In the past, the ratio of the market value of assets to the Present Value of Accmed Benefits was highlighted. However, with the passage of the Pension Protection Act, the ratio of the actuarial value of assets to the Present Value of Accmed Benefits is used 

as one of the components to dete1mine a plan 's status at each annual zone ce1tification. In addition, this ratio 

will be used for annual pa1ticipant notices. This Funded Percentage compares the actuarial value of assets to 

the value of benefits accmed as of the valuation date. 

The fact that the Funded Percentage is under 100% means that there are unfunded accumulated benefits 

when valuing the Plan on an ongoing basis. It does not necessarily imply that the Plan is tmderfunded on a 

long te1m basis because it makes no consideration of future contributions relative to future costs. The margin 

is the best single statistic to get a sense of how well ftmded the Plan is on a long-te1m basis. 

Based on the actuaiial value of assets of $22,857,052 the Ftmded Percentage is 33.7% as of December 31, 

2014.

The three prima1y measures that help an actuary assess how well ftmded a plan is on a long-te1m basis ar·e: 

1. Mar·gin, 

2. Gain/loss analysis and an assessment of assumptions, and 

3. Spread, defmed as the difference between the mar·ket and actuar·ial value of assets expressed as a 

percentage of the mar·ket value of assets. 

The margin and assumptions were covered in earlier sections. 

The third factor is the Spread statistic. When positive it represents a cushion to help offset potential ft1ture 

unfavorable investment expe1ience. Conversely, when the actuarial value is greater than the mar·ket value the 

Spread tmns negative. When this is the case futm·e investment retmns over and above the assumed retmn ar·e 

necessary over time to restore the mar·ket value of assets equal to the actuarial value. 

As ofDecember 31,2014, the Spread is 2.3%.

Benefit Changes 

);.> The Lump Sum option for smviving spouses was suspended effective April 23, 2010 as required 

by law. 

);.> The benefit rate on and after Janua1y 1, 2010 will depend on the date on which the Pa1ticipant 

first earned Future Se1vice Credit. If that date is prior to June 1, 2004, the benefit rate will be 

$50 (payable monthly) for all Year·s of Future Se1vice Credit after December 31, 2009. Otherwise, the benefit rate will be $3 7. 50 for the first ten Year·s of Future Se1v ice Credit and $50.00 

for all subsequent se1vice on and after December 31, 2009. The ten year· pe1iod is measured 

from date of hire. 

);.> A year of Future Se1vice Credit is credited for each 1,000 hours, with 1/10 of a Year· credited for 

each 100 hours worked. No Future Se1vice Credit will be credited if less than 200 hours ar·e 

worked in a Plan Year· 

);.> Unreduced Early Retirement at age 62 with 5 years of Vesting Se1vice was replaced with unreduced Early Retirement at age 62 with 20 year·s of Future Se1vice Credit, with no limitation on 

Se1vice eamed in each Plan Year·.
