Book excerpt: For many years, the Defense Department funded military retirement on a 'pay-as-you-go' basis, estimating how much money was needed to write checks for current retirees and adding that amount to the budget. This system worked well as far as paying retirees went, but it did not hold policymakers fiscally responsible for today's decisions affecting the size of the future retirement bill, e.g., increasing the force size. To promote better management, in 1984, Congress directed a switch to an accrual method of funding retirement. Under this procedure, each year the services transfer into a fund the amount necessary to pay for future retirements. The amount transferred is a percentage of the service's basic pay. Thus, if a service implements policies that affect the future value of retirement benefits, it sees the budgetary consequences of that decision immediately in the form of an increase in the amount transferred to the retirement fund. Analysis by Arroyo Center researchers William Hix and William Taylor, reported in A Policymaker's Guide to Accrual Funding of Military Retirement, suggests that the current procedures do not fully capture the intent of the legislation and that changes could eventually save the Army as much as $5-6 billion annually.

Book Synopsis The Accrual Method for Funding Military Retirement by : Richard Eisenman
Download or read book The Accrual Method for Funding Military Retirement written by Richard Eisenman and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2001 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until 1984, the amount appearing in the DoD budget under "military retirement" was the annual payment to retired military personnel or their survivors--equaling approximately $16 billion that year. That amount reflected the number of retirees and the retirement system that resulted from force-management decisions made 20 or more years earlier. Those managing the personnel force in 1984 essentially had no control over these retirement-budget payments. Similarly, force managers in 1984 could make decisions influencing future retirement expenditures without answering for them in their own budgets. Policymakers were concerned that this system could result in increasingly expensive retirement plans, a more senior force, more retirees than justified by force-readiness considerations, and poor decisions involving substitution of civilian and military personnel and between capital and labor investments.

Book Synopsis Budgeting and Investing in the Military Retirement Fund by : Samuel J. Smithers
Download or read book Budgeting and Investing in the Military Retirement Fund written by Samuel J. Smithers and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Military Retirement Fund (MRF) was established in 1984 and accrual accounting procedures were adopted to manage it. Prior to 1984, military retirement was funded on a 'pay-as-you-go' basis, meaning that annual appropriations from general revenues or borrowing were used to cover retirees' pensions. This thesis reviews the developments which led to the establishment of the MRF, the mechanics of the accrual accounting procedures, the procedures followed by Congress in budgeting for the MRF, and the investment plan and the securities chosen for investment of MRF funds. While the Military Retirement Fund and its accrual accounting system are not highly visible components of the DoD budgetary and funding process, their impact on retired military personnel, the DoD budget and the national debt is significant. In addition, the Military Retirement Fund and accrual accounting were instrumental in paving the way for the reform of military retirement benefits in FY 1986. An understanding of this system and the unique problems that it presents provides a valuable contribution to further understanding of the defense budget and its treatment within the congressional budget process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The military retirement system is a government-funded, noncontributory, defined benefit system that has historically been viewed as a significant incentive in retaining a career military force. The system currently includes monthly compensation for qualified active and reserve retirees, disability benefits for those deemed medically unfit to serve, and a survivor annuity program for the eligible survivors of deceased retirees. The amount of compensation is dependent on time served, basic pay at retirement, and annual Cost-of-Living-Adjustments (COLAs). Military retirees are also entitled to nonmonetary benefits including exchange and commissary privileges, medical care through TRICARE, and access to Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) facilities and programs. Currently, active component personnel are eligible for retirement (i.e., vested) after completing 20 years of service (YOS). Reserve personnel are eligible for retirement after 20 years of creditable service based on a points system, but do not typically begin to draw retirement pay until age 60. A third category of retirement is disability retirement. In FY2016, approximately $57 billion was paid to 2.3 million military retirees and survivors. Given the size of the program, some have viewed military retirement as a place where substantial budgetary savings could be made. However, others have argued that past modifications intended to save money have had a deleterious effect on military recruiting and retention. Military retirees, families, and veterans' service organizations closely monitor potential changes to the retirement system. When considering alternatives to the current system, Congress may choose to consider the balance between military retirement system as a retention incentive, budget constraints, and the needs and concerns of their constituents.
