Expert Solution

Option C should be the right answer because in the money purchase pension plan the employee's account balance of emmployee is tax deferred until the money is withdrawn, while the contribution of employer is tax-deductible. It is just like the profit sharing plan, but the rules for a money purchase plan are more rigid because the company cannot adjust its contribution level as profits go up or down.
