Balancing On-Behalf Amounts

IMPORTANT: The following is only an example of the calculation. Be sure to reference the TRS website: https://www.trs.texas.gov/Pages/re_contribution_rates.aspx to obtain the most current TRS rates and use your LEA's calculations.

The following calculations are based on the Payroll Earnings Register (for all frequencies).

Expected On-Behalf Amount Calculation

Total TRS Gross from the Payroll Earnings Register (Pay Frequency 6 and 5) x TRS Rates (State Contribution 7.5% + Federal TRS-Care 1.25% = .0875) = Expected On-Behalf Amount

Example:

Total TRS Gross from the Payroll Earnings Register (Pay Frequency 6 and 5)multiplied by TRS RatesExpected On-Behalf
$5,013,152.85x .0875= $438,650.87

Difference Calculation

Expected On-Behalf Amount - Statutory Minimum - Federal TRS* - Federal TRS-Care* - New TRS Member Pension Contribution - Actual TRS On-Behalf Report + TRS-Care = Difference

Example:

Expected On-Behalf Amountminus Statutory Minimum (TRS 373/HRS4000)Difference
$438,650.87- $130,823.27*
minus Federal TRS (TRS 3)*

- $51,599.27
minus Federal TRS-Care (TRS 489)*

- $4,771.00
minus New TRS Member Pension Contribution

- $1,419.26
minus Actual TRS On-Behalf Report (HRS4150)

- $250,037.62
= ($0.45)

Small differences can be attributed to rounding.
