PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS | 12 Months Ended

May. 31, 2015
Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract] |
PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS | PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS We have defined benefit retirement plans ("plans") for eligible salaried and hourly employees. Benefits are based on years of credited service and average compensation or stated amounts for each year of service. We also sponsor postretirement plans which provide certain medical and dental benefits ("other postretirement benefits") to qualifying U.S. employees. Effective August 1, 2013, our defined benefit pension plan for eligible salaried employees was closed to new hire salaried employees. New hire salaried employees will generally be eligible to participate in our defined contribution plan. We recognize the funded status of our plans and other benefits in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For our plans, we also recognize as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, the net of tax results of the actuarial gains or losses within the corridor and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are not recognized in net periodic benefit cost. For our other benefits, we also recognize as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), the net of tax results of the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are not recognized in net periodic benefit cost. These amounts will be adjusted out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as they are subsequently recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost. For our pension plans, we have elected to immediately recognize actuarial gains and losses in our operating results in the year in which they occur, to the extent they exceed the corridor, eliminating amortization. Amounts are included in the components of pension benefit and other postretirement benefit costs, below, as recognized net actuarial loss. The changes in benefit obligations and plan assets at May 31, 2015 and May 25, 2014 are presented in the following table.

We amortize prior service cost for our pension plans and postretirement plans, as well as amortizable gains and losses for our postretirement plans, in equal annual amounts over the average expected future period of vested service. For plans with no active participants, average life expectancy is used instead of average expected useful service. The amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) expected to be recognized as components of net expense during the next year are as follows:

Level 1 assets are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. The majority of the Level 1 assets listed above include the common stock of both U.S. and international companies, mutual funds, master limited partnership units, and real estate investment trusts, all of which are actively traded and priced in the market. Level 2 assets are valued based on other significant observable inputs including quoted prices for similar securities, yield curves, indices, etc. The Level 2 assets listed above consist primarily of commingled equity investments where values are based on the net asset value of the underlying investments held, individual fixed income securities where values are based on quoted prices of similar securities and observable market data, and commingled fixed income investments where values are based on the net asset value of the underlying investments held. Level 3 assets are those where the fair value is determined based on unobservable inputs. The Level 3 assets listed above consist of alternative investments where active market pricing is not readily available and, as such, we use net asset values as an estimate of fair value as a practical expedient. For real estate funds, the value is based on the net asset value provided by the investment manager who uses market data and independent third party appraisals to determine fair market value. For the multi-strategy hedge funds, the value is based on the net asset values provided by a third party administrator. For private equity and private energy funds, the investment manager provides the valuation using, among other things, comparable transactions, comparable public company data, discounted cash flow analysis, and market conditions. Level 3 investments are generally considered long-term in nature with varying redemption availability. Certain of our Level 3 investments, with a fair value of approximately $832.7 million as of May 31, 2015, have the ability to impose customary redemption gates which may further restrict or limit the redemption of invested funds therein. As of May 31, 2015, Level 3 investments with a fair value of $1.5 million have imposed such gates. As of May 31, 2015, we have unfunded commitments for additional investments of $96.1 million in private equity funds, $47.6 million in natural resources funds, and $29.1 million in real estate funds. We expect unfunded commitments to be funded from plan assets rather than the general assets of the Company. To develop the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets assumption for the pension plans, we consider the current asset allocation strategy, the historical investment performance, and the expectations for future returns of each asset class. Our pension plan weighted-average asset allocations and our target asset allocations, by asset category were as follows:
|  | May 31, 2015 |  | May 25, 2014 |  | Target Allocation
Equity securities |  | 41 | % |  | 41 | % |  | 25% - 45%
Debt securities |  | 24 | % |  | 26 | % |  | 14% - 24%
Real estate funds |  | 10 | % |  | 6 | % |  | 1% - 19%
Multi-strategy hedge funds |  | 14 | % |  | 13 | % |  | 5% - 25%
Private equity |  | 2 | % |  | 2 | % |  | 3% - 13%
Other |  | 9 | % |  | 12 | % |  | 3% - 30%
Total |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | % |  |
The Company’s investment strategy reflects the expectation that equity securities and multi-strategy hedge funds will outperform debt securities over the long term. Assets are invested in a prudent manner to maintain the security of funds while maximizing returns within the Company’s Investment Policy guidelines. The strategy is implemented utilizing indexed and actively managed assets from the categories listed. The investment goals are to provide a total return that, over the long term, increases the ratio of plan assets to liabilities subject to an acceptable level of risk. This is accomplished through diversification of assets in accordance with the Investment Policy guidelines. Investment risk is mitigated by periodic rebalancing between asset classes as necessitated by changes in market conditions within the Investment Policy guidelines. Other investments are primarily made up of cash and master limited partnerships. Level 3 Gains and Losses The change in the fair value of the plan’s Level 3 assets is summarized as follows:
|  | Fair Value May 25, 2014 |  | Realized Gains (Losses) |  | Unrealized Gains (Losses) |  | Net Purchases and Sales |  | Fair Value May 31, 2015

Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the benefit obligation of the postretirement plans.
Assumed Health Care Cost Trend Rates at: |  | May 31, 2015 |  | May 25, 2014
Initial health care cost trend rate |  | 9.0 | % |  | 10.0 | %
Ultimate health care cost trend rate |  | 4.5 | % |  | 5.0 | %
Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
A one percentage point change in assumed health care cost rates would have the following effect:
|  | One Percent Increase |  | One Percent Decrease
Effect on total service and interest cost |  | $ | 0.6 |  |  | $ | (0.5 | )
Effect on postretirement benefit obligation |  | 14.0 |  |  | (12.5 | )
We currently anticipate making contributions of approximately $13.0 million to our pension plans in fiscal 2016. We anticipate making contributions of $23.7 million to our other postretirement plans in fiscal 2016. These estimates are based on current tax laws, plan asset performance, and liability assumptions, which are subject to change. The following table presents estimated future gross benefit payments for our plans:
|  | Pension Benefits |  | Health Care and Life Insurance Benefits
2016 |  | $ | 186.9 |  |  | $ | 23.7 |

Multiemployer Pension Plans The Company contributes to several multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under collective bargaining agreements that cover certain of its union-represented employees. The risks of participating in such plans are different from the risks of single-employer plans, in the following respects:
a. | Assets contributed to a multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.
b. | If a participating employer ceases to contribute to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.
c. | If the Company ceases to have an obligation to contribute to a multiemployer plan in which it had been a contributing employer, it may be required to pay to the plan an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan and on the history of the Company’s participation in the plan prior to the cessation of its obligation to contribute. The amount that an employer that has ceased to have an obligation to contribute to a multiemployer plan is required to pay to the plan is referred to as a withdrawal liability.
The Company’s participation in multiemployer plans for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015 is outlined in the table below. For each plan that is individually significant to the Company the following information is provided:
• | The “EIN / PN” column provides the Employer Identification Number and the three-digit plan number assigned to a plan by the Internal Revenue Service.
• | The most recent Pension Protection Act Zone Status available for 2014 and 2013 is for plan years that ended in calendar years 2014 and 2013, respectively. The zone status is based on information provided to the Company by each plan. A plan in the “red” zone has been determined to be in “critical status”, based on criteria established under the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), and is generally less than 65% funded. A plan in the “yellow” zone has been determined to be in “endangered status”, based on criteria established under the Code, and is generally less than 80% funded. A plan in the “green” zone has been determined to be neither in “critical status” nor in “endangered status”, and is generally at least 80% funded.
• | The “FIP/RP Status Pending/Implemented” column indicates whether a Funding Improvement Plan, as required under the Code to be adopted by plans in the “yellow” zone, or a Rehabilitation Plan, as required under the Code to be adopted by plans in the “red” zone, is pending or has been implemented by the plan as of the end of the plan year that ended in calendar year 2014.
• | Contributions by the Company are the amounts contributed in the Company’s fiscal periods ending in the specified year.
• | The “Surcharge Imposed” column indicates whether the Company contribution rate for its fiscal year that ended on May 31, 2015 included an amount in addition to the contribution rate specified in the applicable collective bargaining agreement, as imposed by a plan in “critical status”, in accordance with the requirements of the Code.
• | The last column lists the expiration dates of the collective bargaining agreements pursuant to which the Company contributes to the plans.
For plans that are not individually significant to ConAgra Foods the total amount of contributions is presented in the aggregate.
|  | Pension Protection Act Zone Status | FIP / RP Status Pending / Implemented | Contributions by the Company (millions) |  | Expiration Dates of Collective Bargaining Agreements
