Measurement date | December 31, 2016 |  |  | December 31, 2015 |
The weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost during each year were as follows:
| Year Ended December 31,
| 2016 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Discount rate | 4.50 | % |  | 4.10 | % |  | 4.90 | %
Measurement date | December 31, 2015 |  |  | December 31, 2014 |  |  | December 31, 2013 |
Assumed health care cost trend rate | The following presents information about the assumed health care cost trend rate:
| Year Ended December 31,
| 2016 |  | 2015
Pre-Medicare: |  |  |
Health care cost trend rate assumed for next year | 6.20 | % |  | 6.60 | %
Rate to which the cost trend is assumed to decline (the ultimate trend rate) | 4.75 | % |  | 4.75 | %
Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate | 2021 |  |  | 2021 |
Post-Medicare: |  |  |
Health care cost trend rate assumed for next year | 5.60 | % |  | 5.80 | %
