The components of the pension benefit plan expense for the U.K. plans and the assumptions used to determine benefit obligations for 2012, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

The estimated net (gain) loss that will be amortized from other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year for the U.K. plan is ($0.1).

 

Assumptions

 

The Company sets the discount rate assumption annually for each of its retirement-related benefit plans as of the measurement date, based on a review of projected cash flow and a long-term high-quality corporate bond yield curve. The discount rate determined on each measurement date is used to calculate the benefit obligation as of that date, and is also used to calculate the net periodic benefit (income)/cost for the upcoming plan year.

 

The pension expected return on assets assumption is derived from the long-term expected returns based on the investment allocation by class specified in the Company's investment policy. The expected return on plan assets determined on each measurement date is used to calculate the net periodic benefit (income)/cost of the upcoming plan year.

 

Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the health care plans. To determine the health care cost trend rates the Company considers national health trends and adjusts for its specific plan design and locations.

 

A one-percentage point increase in the initial through ultimate assumed health care trend rates would have increased the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation by $6.9 at December 31, 2012 and the aggregate service and interest cost components of non-pension post-retirement benefit expense for 2012 by $0.6. A one-percentage point decrease would have decreased the obligation by $6.2 and the aggregate service and interest cost components of non-pension post-retirement benefit expense for 2012 by $0.6.

 

U.S. Plans Investment Objectives

U.S. Plans

 

The Company's investment objective is to achieve long-term growth of capital, with exposure to risk set at an appropriate level. This objective shall be accomplished through the utilization of a diversified asset mix consisting of equities (domestic and international) and taxable fixed income securities. The allowable asset allocation range is:

 

Equities20%-50%
Fixed income50%-80%
Real estate0%-7%

Investment guidelines include that no security, except issues of the U.S. Government, shall comprise more than 5% of total Plan assets and further, no individual portfolio shall hold more than 7% of its assets in the securities of any single entity, except issues of the U.S. Government. The following derivative transactions are prohibited — leverage, unrelated speculation and “exotic” collateralized mortgage obligations or CMOs. Investments in hedge funds, private placements, oil and gas and venture capital must be specifically approved by the Company in advance of their purchase.

 

Asset Category U.S.

The Company's plans have asset allocations for the U.S., as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as follows:

 

  2012 2011
Asset Category - U.S.    
Equity securities - U.S. 29% 29%

Debt securities 65% 65%
Real estate 2% 2%
Total 100% 100%
U.K. Plans Investment Objecives

U.K. Plans

 

The Trustee's investment objective is to ensure that they can meet their obligation to the beneficiaries of the Plan. An additional objective is to achieve a return on the total Plan, which is compatible with the level of risk considered appropriate. The overall benchmark allocation of the Plan's assets is:

 

Equity securities55%
Debt securities40%
Property5%
Asset Category U.K.

The Company's plans have asset allocations for the U.K., as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as follows:

  2012 2011
Asset Category - U.K.    
Equity securities 56% 54%
Debt securities 39% 41%
Other 5% 5%
Total 100% 100%
Total Benefits Expected To Be Paid Over Next Ten Years

Projected contributions and benefit payments

 

Required pension contributions under Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) regulations are expected to be zero in 2013 and discretionary contributions are not expected in 2013. SERP and post-retirement medical plan contributions in 2013 are not expected to exceed $1.4. Expected contributions to the U.K. plan for 2013 are $9.2.

 

We monitor our defined benefit pension plan asset investments on a quarterly basis and we believe that we are not exposed to any significant credit risk in these investments.

 

The total benefits expected to be paid over the next ten years from the plans' assets or the assets of the Company, by country, are as follows:

Pension Plan Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Fair Value Measurements

 

The pension plan assets are valued at fair value. A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the investments measured at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

 

Temporary Cash Investments — These investments consist of U.S. dollars and foreign currencies held in master trust accounts. Foreign currencies held are reported in terms of U.S. dollars based on currency exchange rates readily available in active markets. These temporary cash investments are classified as level 1 investments.

 

Collective Investment Trusts — These investments are public investment vehicles valued using middle market prices and performance of the fund. The trust allocates notional units to the policy holder based on the underlying notional unit buy (offer) price using the middle market price plus transaction costs. These investments are classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In addition, the collective investment trust includes a real estate fund which is classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

 

Commingled Equity and Bond Funds — These investments are valued at the closing price reported by the Plan Trustee. These investments are not being traded in an active market, but are backed by various investment securities managed by the Bank of New York. Fair value is being calculated using unobservable inputs that rely on the Bank of New York's own assumptions and are therefore classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, although these assumptions are based on underlying investments which are traded on an active market.

 

 

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the pension plan assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:
