  1. 715-70Defined Contribution Plans715 Compensation—Retirement Benefits

    ASC 715-70 governs employer accounting and disclosure for defined contribution pension and other postretirement benefit plans—plans that provide an individual account for each participant and benefits based only on contributions plus returns. The core rule is that net periodic cost equals the contribution called for in the period in which the employee renders service (715-70-35-1), with costs accrued during the service period if contributions relate to periods after retirement or termination. Plans with characteristics of both defined benefit and defined contribution plans must be accounted for based on their substance (715-70-15-2).
