Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution Plans [Abstract] |
Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution Plans | Note 14 – Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution Plans Defined Benefit Plan We have a defined benefit pension plan covering employees who met eligibility requirements. This plan is closed to new participants. El igibility and the level of benefits under the plan were primarily dependent on date of hire, age, length of service and compensation. The funding policy for our plan is consistent with the funding requirements of U.S. federal law and regulations. The measurement date used to determine the pension plan measurements disclosed herein is March 31 for both 2022 and 2021. The underfunded status of Monro’s defined benefit plan is recognized as an Other long-term liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 26, 2022 and March 27, 2021, respectively.

Underfunded status |  | $ | (362) |  | $ | (430)
Contributions and Estimated Future Benefit Payment Our obligations to plan participants can be met over time through a combination of Company contributions to these plans and earnings on plan assets. There are no required or expected contributions in our fiscal year ending March 25, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) to the plan. However, depending on investment performance and plan funded status, we may elect to make a contribution.

Discount rate |  | 3.58 | % |  | 3.01 | %
Net Periodic Benefit Expense Weighted Average Assumptions |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |

Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets |  | 5.00 | % |  | 6.50 | % |  | 7.00 | %
Our expected long-term rate of return on plan assets assumption is based upon historical returns and the future expectations for returns for each asset class, as well as the target asset allocation of the pension portfolio. Benefit Obligation
Change in Projected Benefit Obligation |  |  |  |  |  |
(thousands) |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021
Benefit obligation at beginning of year |  | $ | 22,096 |  | $ | 21,646

Benefit obligation at end of year (a) |  | $ | 20,826 |  | $ | 22,096
(a) Accumulated benefit obligation-the present value of benefits earned to date assuming no future salary growth-is materially consistent with the projected benefit obligation in each period presented. Plan Assets
Change in Plan Assets |  |  |  |  |  |
(thousands) |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021
Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year |  | $ | 21,666 |  | $ | 18,611
Actual (loss) return on plan assets |  |  | (505) |  |  | 3,688
Benefits paid |  |  | (697) |  |  | (633)
Fair value of plan assets at end of year |  | $ | 20,464 |  | $ | 21,666
Our asset allocation strategy is to conservatively manage the assets to meet the plan’s long-term obligations while maintaining sufficient liquidity to pay current benefits. This is achieved by holding equity investments while investing a portion of assets in long duration bonds to match the long-term nature of the liabilities.
Asset Category |  | Current Targeted |  |  | Actual Allocation
|  | Allocation |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  |  |  | 0.8 | % |  | 53.3 | %
Fixed income |  | 50.0 | % |  | 62.6 | % |  | 24.7 | %
Equity securities |  | 50.0 | % |  | 36.6 | % |  | 22.0 | %
Total |  | 100.0 | % |  | 100.0 | % |  | 100.0 | %
The allocation of assets as of March 2021 was weighted heavier in cash and cash equivalents as the Plan’s assets were transferred from its previous custodian to a new custodian late in 2021 by the Plan’s new asset manager. As such, cash and cash equivalent assets were being reinvested into new assets in accordance with our asset allocation strategy late in fiscal 2021 and into 2022.

Defined Contribution Plan Our employees are eligible to participate in a defined contribution 401(k) plan that covers full-time employees who meet the age and service requirements of the plan. The plan is funded by employee and employer contributions. We match 50 percent of the first 6 percent of employee contributions. Employer contributions totaled approximately $2.0 million, $1.6 million, and $1.7 million for 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. We may also make annual profit-sharing contributions to the plan at the discretion of Monro’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. In addition, we maintain an executive deferred compensation plan (the “Executive Deferred Compensation Plan”) for a broad management group whose participation in our 401(k) plan is limited by statute or regulation. The Executive Deferred Compensation Plan permits participants to defer all or any portion of the compensation that would otherwise be payable to them for the calendar year. We credit to the participants’ accounts such amounts as would have been contributed to Monro’s 401(k) plan but for the limitations that are imposed by statute or regulation. The Executive Deferred Compensation Plan is an unfunded arrangement and the participants or their beneficiaries have an unsecured claim against the general assets of Monro to the extent of their Executive Deferred Compensation Plan benefits. We maintain accounts to reflect the amounts owed to each participant. At least annually, the accounts are credited with earnings or losses calculated based on an interest rate or other formula as determined by Monro’s Compensation Committee. The total liability recorded in our financial statements at March 26, 2022 and March 27, 2021 related to the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan was approximately $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
