Settlement Rate

The suggested way to calculate the net present value of a pension plan. The settlement rate is devised by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and is used by companies who wish to discontinue their pension plans. That is, a company may use the settlement rate to calculate lump sum payments to plan participants to relieve itself of the future liability of making payments on the pension over time.
