1. ''Pensions accounting.'' 
In relation to goal-setting, Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-specific.
 
The excess of liabilities over assets in a funded Defined benefit pension scheme; also known as under-funding. 
 
 
For example;
 
if the liabilities were 100
 
and the assets were 90,
 
the deficit would be 100 - 90 = 10. 
 
(Not to be confused with the percentage ''funding level'' which in this example would be 90/100 = 90%.)
 
 
2. More generally, any financial shortfall.
