The cost resulting from the payment of additional benefits under this Act based on military service determined pursuant to the preceding provisions of this subsection shall be adjusted by applying thereto the ratio of the total net level cost of all benefits under this Act to the portion of such net level cost remaining after the exclusion of administrative expenses and interest charges on the unfunded accrued liability as determined under the last completed actuarial valuation pursuant to the provisions of subsection (g) of this section. At the close of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1975, and each fiscal year thereafter, the Board shall, as promptly as practicable, determine the amount to be appropriated to the Account pursuant to the provisions of this subsection, and shall certify such amount to the Secretary of the Treasury for transfer from the general fund in the Treasury to the Railroad Eetirement Account. When authorized by an appropriation Act, the Secretary of the Treasury shall transfer to the Railroad Retirement Account from the general fund in the Treasury such amounts as, from time to time, may be determined by the Board pursuant to the provisions of this subsection and certified by the Board for transfer to such Account. In any determination made pursuant to section 7(c)(2) of this Act, no further charges shall be made against the Trust Funds established by title II of the Social Security Act for military service rendered before January 1, 1957, and with respect to which appropriations authorized by clause (2) of the first sentence of section 4(1) of the Railroad Retirement Act of 1937 shall have been credited to the Railroad Retirement Account, but the additional benefit payments incurred by such Trust Funds by reason of such military service shall be taken in account in making any such determination. "(c) The Railroad Retirement Supplemental Account established by section 15(b) of the Railroad Retirement Act of 1937 shall continue to be maintained in the Treasury of the United States. There is hereby authorized to be appropriated to such account for each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year ending June 30, 1975, to provide for the payment of supplemental annuities under section 2(b) of this Act, and to provide for the expenses necessary for the Board in the administration of the payment of such supplemental annuities, an amount equal to such portions of the amounts covered into the Treasury (minus refunds) during each fiscal year under sections 3211(b), 3221(c), and 3221(d) of the Railroad Retirement Tax Act as are not appropriated to the Railroad Retirement Account pursuant to the provisions of subsection (a) of this section. " (d) There is hereby authorized to be appropriated to the Railroad Retirement Account for each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year ending June 30, 1976, such sums as the Board determines to be necessary on a level basis to pay before the end of fiscal year 2000 the total of (A) the amounts of the annuities paid and to be paid after 1974 pursuant to the provisions of sections 3(h), 4 (e), and 4(h) of this Act and pursuant to the provisions of sections 204(a)(3), 204(a)(4), 206(3), and 207(3) of title II of this Act, plus (B) any loss in interest to such Account resulting from the payment of such amounts reduced by (C) such amount as the Board determines, on an estimated basis, is equal to the excess of (i) the interest which such account will actually earn in the fiscal years 1976 through 2000 over (ii) the interest which such account would have earned in such fiscal years if the provisions of subsection (e) of this section were identical to the provisions of section 15(c) of the Railroad Retirement Act of 1937. The Board shall, at the time of each actuarial valuation made prior to the fiscal year 2000 pursuant to the provisions of subsection (g) of this section re-evaluate the amount determined under the preceding sen-
