Solution

The employee benefit plan defined by that statement is known as a Defined Contribution Plan. In this type of plan, the employer, employee or both make contributions on a regular basis. The final benefits received by the employee depend on the amount contributed and the performance of the investments made with those contributions. The employer has no further obligations once the contributions are made.
