Guest Pennysaver Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 Forgive me if this is a silly question, but I am not an actuary: Which FASB statement is it that requires plan assets and liabilities be determined as of the plan sponsor's fiscal year end rather than the plan year beginning? Thanks!
david rigby Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 See SFAS No. 87. Also relevant may be Nos. 88, 106, 132, 158. Most importantly, generally accepted accounting principles reflect that a financial statement is meaningful only at the end of an accounting period (quarter, year, etc.) I'm a retirement actuary. Nothing about my comments is intended or should be construed as investment, tax, legal or accounting advice. Occasionally, but not all the time, it might be reasonable to interpret my comments as actuarial or consulting advice.
