B seems like the most logical choice to me. The employer has to step in if the funds are insufficient. I'd rather not depend on the whims of the stock market, thank you very much.

B) The employer would make additional contributions into the scheme if the actuary predicted a shortfall in the funds available to pay post-employment benefits.

A) The amount of the post-employment benefits paid to former employees depends on how well the scheme's investments have performed.

Ha! D is clearly the funniest option. The employer can just take a 'contributions holiday' if the assets are sufficient. Like a paid vacation, but for the company!

C is the answer, no doubt about it. The benefits are determined by a predefined formula, not investment performance. This exam is a piece of cake!

That's a valid point, but I still think A) is more likely based on the characteristics of defined contribution schemes.

I disagree, I believe the answer is C) because benefits should be predetermined.

Hmm, I thought option B was the right one. The employer has to cover any shortfall in the funds, not the employees. What a drag!
