<h1>Appendix D: Computing a Retired-Worker Benefit</h1>
|
|
<h2>Overview</h2>
|
|
<p>This section provides instructions and a worksheet for computing a retired-worker benefit. The worksheet can be used for persons born in 1933 through 1946—that is, those who attained the age of 62 in 2008 or earlier and were under the age of 75 at the end of 2008. The worksheet assumes that the worker had no prior period of entitlement to disability benefits and also did not work after becoming entitled to retired-worker benefits.</p>
|
|
<p>The worksheet describes the various steps used in computing a benefit. The steps are based on the following Social Security program goals:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><i>To provide a benefit based on lifetime earnings.</i> Benefits are related to earnings over a period of time that the worker could be expected to have worked in covered employment—from age 22 through age 61. The years of earnings considered are termed <i>computation years</i>. The worker's 5 lowest earnings years, including years of no earnings at all, are not considered in the computation. They are termed the <i>drop-out years</i>.</li>
|
|
<li><i>To index lifetime earnings.</i> Earnings used in the computation are not the actual covered earnings but an amount for each year that reflects earnings increases in average wage levels after the year the earnings were paid. This procedure is termed <i>wage indexing</i>. Currently, earnings are generally indexed to wage levels in the year the worker turns age 60. For example, for a person attaining the age of 62 in 2008, actual earnings in 1985 of $20,000 are indexed to $45,952.01, on the basis of 2006 wage levels. Earnings after age 60 are included at their actual (nominal) value.</li>
|
|
<li><i>To replace a portion of the indexed earnings.</i> Indexed earnings are averaged over the number of computation years to calculate the average indexed monthly earnings (<abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>). A benefit formula is applied to the <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> to produce the <i>primary insurance amount</i> (<abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr>), the amount payable to a worker who retires at the full retirement age (<abbr class="spell">FRA</abbr>). The benefit formula is weighted to provide a higher replacement of earnings for lower-wage workers. The formula for persons aged 62 in 2008 is 90 percent of the first $711 of <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>; plus 32 percent of the next $3,577; plus 15 percent of the <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> over $4,288.</li>
|
|
<li><i>To permit early retirement.</i> Persons can retire as early as age 62, but the monthly benefit is reduced. The reduction is 5/9 of 1 percent for each of the first 36 months of entitlement immediately preceding the age at which 100 percent of <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is payable (66 in 2008 but scheduled to increase to age 67 by 2022), plus 5/12 of 1 percent for each of up to 24 earlier months. For a person aged 62 in 2008, the maximum reduction is 25 percent if the individual is entitled to benefits for all 48 months between ages 62 and 66.</li>
|
|
<li><i>To provide for price indexing after the age of 62.</i> Benefits are adjusted annually in December to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index (<abbr class="spell">CPI-W</abbr>). The benefit increase in 2007 was 2.3 percent. These cost-of-living adjustments are applied to the benefit for each year after the person attained the age of 62—even if the person was not actually receiving benefits.</li>
|
|
<li><i>To give credit for earnings after age 61.</i> Earnings after the age of 61 (which are not indexed) can be substituted for earnings in earlier years if they result in a higher benefit. In addition, persons who do not receive benefits between the <abbr class="spell">FRA</abbr> and age 69 may receive increased benefits as a result of the delayed retirement credit (<abbr class="spell">DRC</abbr>) provision. The benefit is increased by a specified percentage for each month a benefit was not received. (See <a href="2a20-2a28.html#table2.a20">Table 2.A20</a> for percentage increases.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h2>Clarifying the Worksheet Procedure</h2>
|
|
<h3>Step 1 - Determining the Number of Computation Years</h3>
|
|
<p>For persons who attain age 62 before 1991, the number of years used in the benefit computation equals the number of years after 1950 up to the year of attainment of age 62, minus 5 years. For workers who attain age 62 in 1991 or later, the number of computation years is 35.</p>
|
|
<h3>Step 2 - Wage Indexing of Earnings</h3>
|
|
<p>The following description and examples are provided for persons who wish to compute the index factors and indexed earnings. The indexing year is the second year before attainment of the age of 62. However, beneficiaries born on January 1 are deemed to have attained age 62 in the prior year, and consequently, the applicable indexing year, factors, and bend points are those for that year.</p>
|
|
<p>The average wage for the indexing year is divided by the average wage in each prior year to obtain the factor for each prior year. For example, a person attains age 62 in 2008. The indexing year is 2006. The average annual wage for 2006 was $38,651.41. The average annual wage for 1990 was $21,027.98. The amount, $38,651.41 divided by $21,027.98, yields a factor of 1.8380943.</p>
|
|
<p>The worker's actual earnings covered under Social Security in that year, up to the maximum earnings creditable, are multiplied by the indexing factor to obtain the indexed earnings (see Worksheet 1). For example, actual covered earnings of $10,000 in 1990, multiplied by 1.8380943, result in indexed earnings of $18,380.94; actual earnings of $51,300 (the maximum creditable) result in indexed earnings of $94,294.24.</p>
|
|
<h3>Step 3 - Computing the Average Indexed Monthly Earnings (<abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>)</h3>
|
|
<p>After the earnings in each year have been indexed, they are used in computing average indexed monthly earnings. The years of highest indexed earnings corresponding to the number of computation years are selected and totaled. This total is then divided by the number of months in the computation years. The result, rounded to the nearest lower dollar, is the average indexed monthly earnings.</p>
|
|
<p>For example, for a person attaining age 62 in 2008, the highest 35 years of indexed earnings are used. If the sum of these earnings equals $400,000, the <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> is $952 ($400,000 divided by 420 = $952.38, rounded to $952).</p>
|
|
<h3>Step 4 - Computing the Primary Insurance Amount (<abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr>)</h3>
|
|
<p>The <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr>, the amount from which all Social Security benefits payable on a worker's earnings record are based, is computed by applying a formula to the <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>. The formula consists of brackets in which three percentages are applied to amounts of <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>. The dollar amounts defining the brackets are called <i>bend points</i>, and the bend points are different for each calendar year of attainment of age 62. The <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is rounded to the nearest lower 10 cents.</p>
|
|
<p>For retired workers who attained age 62 in 2008, the bend points are $711 and $4,288. Thus the formula is 90 percent of the first $711 of <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>; plus 32 percent of the next $3,577 of <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr>; plus 15 percent of <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> above $4,288. The following are examples of <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> computations for such workers with different <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> amounts.</p>
|
|
<p class="indent2"> Example 1 - <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> of $300<br> <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is $270<br> Based on: 90 percent of $300 </p>
|
|
<p class="indent2"> Example 2 - <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> of $952<br> <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is $717.02 rounded to $717.00<br> Based on: 90 percent of $711 ($639.90); plus<br> 32 percent of $241 ($77.12) </p>
|
|
<p class="indent2"> Example 3 - <abbr class="spell">AIME</abbr> of $4,500<br> <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is $1,816.34 rounded to $1,816.30<br> Based on: 90 percent of $711 ($639.90); plus<br> 32 percent of $3,577 ($1,144.64); plus<br> 15 percent of $212 ($31.80) </p>
|
|
<p>The above calculations are applicable to workers who attain the age of 62 in 2008. For workers who attained age 62 in prior years, the bend points will be different, and the <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> must be increased to reflect cost-of-living adjustments between the year of attainment of age 62 and 2008. Worksheet 2 shows cost-of-living increase factors for 1979 through 2007. After the <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is calculated for the year of attainment of age 62, cost-of-living increases are applied for each year through 2007. The result is the current 2008 <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr>.</p>
|
|
<p>For example, a worker who attained age 62 in 2005 would receive cost-of-living adjustments for the years <span class="nobr">2005–2007</span>. The adjustments are cumulative, with each step rounded to the next lower dime. If the <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> at age 62 was $500, the cost-of-living adjustments would be:</p>
|
|
<p class="indent2"> 2005: $500 multiplied by 1.041 = $520.50<br> 2006: $520.50 multiplied by 1.033 = $537.60<br> 2007: $537.60 multiplied by 1.023 = $549.90<br> $549.90 would be the <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> effective December 2007. </p>
|
|
<h3>Step 5 - Computation of the Monthly Benefit</h3>
|
|
<p>The full <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is payable to a worker who retires at the full retirement age (<abbr class="spell">FRA</abbr>). Beginning in 2000, the <abbr class="spell">FRA</abbr>, scheduled to be gradually raised to age 67 for workers attaining age 62 in 2022, began to be phased in. Workers can still retire as early as age 62, but the monthly benefit is reduced by 5/9 of 1 percent for each of the first 36 months of entitlement immediately preceding the FRA plus 5/12 of 1 percent for each of up to 24 earlier months. Workers attaining the age of 62 in 2008 have their benefits computed based on the full retirement age of 66. See <a href="2a8-2a19.html#table2.a17.1">Table 2.A17.1</a> to determine the <abbr class="spell">FRA</abbr> based on the year of birth as well as the reduction factors. For individuals electing benefits at exactly age 62 in 2008, the maximum reduction is 25 percent.</p>
|
|
<p>For example, in 2008 a worker with a <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> of $500 would receive $375 at the age of 62. The <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> is reduced by $124.99, reflecting a reduction rate of 5/9 of 1 percent for each of 36 months and a rate of 5/12 of 1 percent for each of 12 months for a total reduction of 25 percent. After reduction of the <abbr class="spell">PIA</abbr> by $124.99, the benefit amount is rounded down to the nearest lower dollar.</p>
