Actuarial Cost Table

This table estimates your cost to purchase universal buy-in; parental leave; and other governmental service credit.

Directions: Use your age as of the beginning of the current fiscal year (the state fiscal year runs October 1 through September 30). Multiply the applicable percentage rate by your highest previous fiscal year earnings (equating part-time wages to full-time wages) to arrive at the cost of one year of service credit.
