58. Based on Exhibit 1, the amount of wage growth the selected benchmark is expected to cover is closest to:
A. 4%.
B. 6%.
C. 2%.
Answer = A
The portion of the benchmark return for the future wage liabilities is 4% because wage increases are attributable to two economic forces: wage inflation (2%) and real wage growth (2%).
请问为什么这个benchmark只cover了两部分呢?文中提到Erickson suggests that they work together to develop a custom benchmark that mimics the pension liabilities.为什么不包括GDP growth的部分?
