40 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2014
Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2014
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
12. ACCRUED PENSION AND SEVERANCE COSTS
All employees who retire or are terminated are usually entitled to lump-sum severance indemnities or pension benefits
determined by reference to service credits allocated to employees each year according to the regulation of retirement
benefit, length of service and conditions under which their employment terminates. The obligation for the severance
indemnity benefit is provided for through accruals and funding of the defined benefit corporate pension plan.
The Company and certain subsidiaries in Japan have amended their pension plan under the agreement between
employees and managements in January 2011, and introduced Cash Balance Plan from April 2011. This plan is designed
that each plan participant has a notional account, which is accumulated based on salary standards, interest rates in
financial markets and others.
The funding policy for the plans is to contribute amounts required to maintain sufficient plan assets to provide for
accrued benefits, subject to the limitation on deductibility imposed by Japanese income tax laws.
The changes in the benefit obligation and plan assets for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and the funded status
at March 31, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:
