About the State Trust Fund Calculator
The calculator derives the solvency measures based on the specified input values of the trust fund, the state, and time period. Actual historical solvency measures based on the actual state trust fund balance are available in both the Annual 394 report and Quarterly Data Summary.
For the Forecast Solvency calculator the user must input the assumption of the growth (either positive or negative) in annual wages that will take place in each year of the forecast. It is assumed that the Average High Cost Rate and the High Cost Rate for each State remains the same as in the base year throughout the forecast period.
Definitions
Reserve Ratio: Trust fund balance as a percent of estimated wages for the most recent 12 months. For the Historical Solvency Calculator (HSC) the balance is taken as a percent of the actual yearly data, for the Forecast Solvency Calculator (FSC) the balance is taken as a percent of the forecasted wages that are derived by applying the input of annual wage growth to the last actual data period.
High-Cost Multiple: The trust fund as a percent of total wages, either actual or forecasted, divided by the High Cost Rate. The High Cost Rate is the highest historical ratio of benefits to wages for a 12-month period.
Average High Cost Multiple: Calendar Year Reserve Ratio divided by the Average
High Cost Rate. The average high cost rate is the average of the three highest calendar year benefit cost rates in the last 20 years (or a period including three recessions, if longer). Benefit cost rates are benefits paid (including the state’s share of extended benefits but excluding reimbursable benefits) as a percent of total wages
in taxable employment.
Balance Needed for
