Commando,

The flat dollar cannot go to infinity...it expires for this contract as it will for the TA. The whole point of the flat dollar is the company only has to fund it for the duration of the TA plus the negotiated extra chunk at the end. You need to call Pick or the new retirement chairman and get your facts correct on the flat dollar.

Details of the 2006 Contract flat dollar amount set to expire 31 Dec 2016 are available in ITD 802, which can be found on the IPA Website under Library->Letters of Agreement.

Yes. I think 2023. And then a two window for a new TA.

Ours Contracts never expire. So why not have the FD not expire also? There should not be any dates of expiration. Just have the FD go with the Collective Bargaining agreement like everything else. They are amendable. No Dates.

(Flat Dollar=FD)

...because of IRS rules, which has in fact been explained on the B&G and is explained in ITD-802.

FedEx's A plan is 2% x YOS x High 5 (capped at 260)

No differentiation between Capt and FO, I am quite confident that many FedEx FOs already have capped out on their high 5, just as many, if not all, Senior Capts have done so.

B plan is at 8%, going to 9 in a few years. B plan capped at IRS limits w/no cash over cap. At FedEx, Disabilty bank capped at just under 10 years of sick time (72 per year). Any hours above that are paid into the B plan, if not above the IRS 54sh k limit for the year (don't remember the exact limit and it's a pain bouncing about on the iPad). If above the IRS limit, FedEx pays it out as taxable income.

Also with this new CBA, have the potential to get pennies on the dollar for a sick leave buyback if you retire with mucho sick and disability time assuming enough earnings in recent history. (Bribe to keep the Senior folks from using their benefits)

Does fedex have a non-qualified plan to get around the IRS caps?

Is this the correct interpretation? Seems kind of low...

Can someone elaborate? Thanks.
It's a little lower than that even. There is an IRS limit of around 260,000 that can be used towards pensions instead of the full amount so it is closer to 260,000*20= $52,000

767,

I'm not sure what you're talking about but that is NOT the ups A plan. It is based on fae for 5 yrs (max of 300k) or fda (currently 3k/yr but moving to 4k and up to 4.2k per year in the TA).

The 260k is the fedex CONTRACTUAL limit for their A plan. All B plans are based on the IRS 265k limit.
