Actuarial Assumptions The weighted-average actuarial assumptions used to determine the benefit obligation amounts and the net periodic benefit cost for the Company's pension plans are as follows:
Weighted-average assumptions used in the determination of net periodic benefit cost:
(Percentages) |  |  | 2023 |  |  |  | 2022 |  |  |  | 2021
|  |  | Domestic | International |  |  |  | Domestic | International |  |  |  | Domestic | International
Discount rate(1) |  |  | varies | 3.33 |  |  |  |  | varies | 1.99 |  |  |  |  | — |  | 1.66 |
Compensation increase rate |  |  | N/A | 4.45 |  |  |  |  | N/A | 3.20 |  |  |  |  | — |  | 2.75 |
Expected return on plan assets |  |  | 6.80 |  | 4.80 |  |  |  |  | 5.10 |  | 4.80 |  |  |  |  | — |  | 4.80 |
(1) Due to settlement activity during FYE 2023 in the domestic plan, there were two remeasurements as of 3/4/2023 and 6/3/2023. The discount rate for beginning of period is 4.40% and 5.18%, respectively. Due to settlement activity during fiscal year 2022, there were four remeasurements as of 8/28/2021, 11/27/2021, 2/26/2022, and 5/28/2022. The discount rate for beginning of period in fiscal 2022 is 2.90%, 2.89%, 3.00%, and 3.52% respectively.
Weighted-average assumptions used in the determination of the projected benefit obligations:
Discount rate |  |  | 5.17 |  | 5.34 |  |  |  |  | 4.40 |  | 3.33 |  |  |  |  | — |  | 1.99 |
Compensation increase rate |  |  | N/A | 3.00 |  |  |  |  | N/A | 4.45 |  |  |  |  | — |  | 3.20 |
The Company uses a full yield curve approach to estimate the interest component of net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits. This method applies the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. Plan Assets and Investment Strategies The assets of the Company's employee benefit plans consist mainly of listed fixed income obligations and common/collective trusts. The Company's primary objective for invested pension plan assets is to provide for sufficient long-term growth and liquidity to satisfy all of its benefit obligations over time. Accordingly, the Company has developed an investment strategy that it believes maximizes the probability of meeting this overall objective. This strategy includes the development of a target investment allocation by asset category in order to provide guidelines for making investment decisions. This target allocation emphasizes the long-term characteristics of individual asset classes as well as the diversification among multiple asset classes. In developing its strategy, the Company considered the need to balance the varying risks associated with each asset class with the long-term nature of its benefit obligations. The Company's strategy moving forward will be to increase the level of fixed income investments as the funding status improves, thereby more closely matching the return on assets with the liabilities of the plans. The Company utilizes independent investment managers to assist with investment decisions within the overall guidelines of the investment strategy. The target asset allocation at the end of fiscal 2023 and asset categories for the Company's pension plans for fiscal 2023 and 2022 are as follows:
| Targeted Asset Allocation Percentage
Asset Category | 2023 |  | 2022
Domestic |  | International |  | Domestic |  | International
Fixed income | 70% |  | 33% |  | 46% |  | 33%

Cash Flows The Company reviews pension funding requirements to determine the contribution to be made in the next year. Actual contributions will be dependent upon investment returns, changes in pension obligations and other economic and regulatory factors. During fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, the Company made total cash contributions of $11.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively, to its pension plans. The Company expects to contribute approximately $4.6 million to its pension plans in fiscal 2024. The following represents a summary of the benefits expected to be paid by the plans in future fiscal years. These expected benefits were estimated based on the same actuarial valuation assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at June 3, 2023.

401(k) Plan and Core Contribution Substantially all of the Company’s domestic employees are eligible to participate in a defined contribution retirement plan, primarily the MillerKnoll Retirement Plan and the Knoll Retirement Savings Plan. Employees under the plan are eligible to begin participating on their date of hire. The Company contributes to the plans as matching contributions a certain percentage of the participant’s salary deferral, subject to certain limitations defined in the plan documents. The Company’s other defined contribution retirement plans may provide for matching contributions, non-elective contributions and discretionary contributions as declared by management. Effective January 1, 2023, the Knoll Retirement Savings Plan was merged into the MillerKnoll Retirement Plan. The expense recorded for the Company's 401(k) matching and other discretionary contributions was $32.4 million, $36.3 million and $23.7 million in fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
