Hire Date January 1, 1980 Birth Date January 1, 1940 Normal Retirement Date January 1, 2005 Credited Service 10 years to 12.31.89 15 years after 1.1.90 25 years in total Final Average Salary (FAS) $36,000 Average YMPE $30,500 1% of FAS below YMPE 1% of $30,500 = $305.00 1¼ % of FAS below YMPE 1¼% of $30,500 = $381.25 1½ % of FAS in excess of YMPE 1½% of $5,500 = $ 82.50 Benefit Calculations = $305.00 x 10 years + $381.25 x 15 years + $ 82.50 x 25 years = $10,831.25 per year = $ 902.60 per month Therefore, the pension at normal retirement for this employee would be $902.60 per month.
