Jim Findlay is the Founder and CEO of Impact Products. Findlay takes great pride in having his firm be on the leading edge of providing benefits to employees. Every year, Findlay sits down with his two senior executives, Jeff Beery and Tom Harbal to discuss various employee benefit plans. This year’s focus is on employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) and cash balance plans. With regard to ESOPs, Beery states, “In addition to the benefits to employees, an ESOP would be a useful way for you as owner of the company, Mr. Findlay, to liquidate a large block of your Impact Product holdings.” After further discussion, they move on to discussing cash balance plans. Harbal reports, “Unlike regular pension plans, cash balance plans can never be under funded because the cash balance reflects the actual amount put away for employees.” With regard to their statements about ESOPs and cash balance plans: A. Beery’s statement is correct; Harbal’s statement is correct. B. Beery’s statement is correct; Harbal’s statement is incorrect. C. Beery’s statement is incorrect; Harbal’s statement is incorrect. |
