GM: Defined benefit plan: Plans covering eligible U.S. salaried employees hired prior to January 2001 and hourly employees hired prior to October 15, 2007 generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service as well as supplemental benefits for employees who retire with 30 years of service before normal retirement age. -GM owes close to 140B of pensions/benefits. -Service cost what you owe employees for their service in the current period. -Interest cost -- increase in liability due to passage of time (present value of obligation is growing in time).
Our U.S. defined benefit pension plans are currently underfunded, and our pension funding obligations could increase significantly due to a reduction in funded status as a result of a variety of factors, including weak performance of financial markets, declining interest rates, investment decisions that do not achieve adequate returns, and investment risk inherent in our investment portfolio. What is the liability are on the balance sheet? - Pension obligation less plan assets, i.e., net obligation.
Pension expense is computed using expected return, not actual return, on plan assets.
Deviations of actual return from expected return do not go via income statement but generally go via to Other Comprehensive Income.
Deferred Taxes
Taxes: Concepts
Pre-Tax Income (or Book income) is income before income taxes computed under GAAP. Taxable income is the income on which income tax calculation is based (this income follows IRS or local tax rules and is part of tax return). Which one is closer to cash basis of accounting? -taxable income, since firms need cash to pay taxes. Taxable income is DIFFERENT from pretax income due to: (1) Permanent differences, or (2) Temporary/timing differences. Deferred tax asset (DTA): DTA represents prepaid tax. DTA arises when current events result in future deductions (i.e., tax benefits). Deferred tax liability (DTL): DTL represents future taxable amounts due to tax deductions taken in advance.
