greater-of definition

greater-of calculation means the actuarial increase is offset against continued accruals under the plan formula. They do not require the actuarial increase to be provided in addition to accruals under the plan formula, even when the plan was silent on whether the late retirement increases offset continued accruals. (The most common problem VCP is seeing in this area is plans that are completely silent as to what happens when a participant remains in service beyond normal retirement age – that is, the plan doesn’t provide for either a suspension or an actuarial increase.) While a document used by field agents indicates it may be acceptable in certain situations, they generally will not permit a “one-shot” calculation, which determines the late retirement benefit as the greater of (i) the formula benefit counting all service and salary to date or (ii) the actuarial equivalent of the benefit at normal retirement date. IRS is providing additional training for VCP staff and telling them to go through an actuary whenever they encounter issues involving late retirement benefit calculations. If a plan calls for the “one-shot” calculation, has a determination letter, and the plan sponsor was following the plan document, a plan examiner may not raise the issue.
