How the calculation works
Calculate the annual pension benefit from final average salary, an accrual rate per service year, and completed years of service.2
Annual benefit = final average salary × accrual rate × service Inputs and interpretation
Keep every input on the same valuation, timing, unit, and assumption basis. Interpret the output at the precision supported by those inputs rather than treating extra decimal places as additional certainty.
Limitations and assumptions
Plan definitions may cap service, select highest rather than final years, integrate social security, or apply early/late retirement adjustments.
