In a defined benefit pension plan:

A)
 the employee is responsible for making investment decisions.
B)
 the employee is promised a periodic payment upon retirement.
C)
 the employer’s pension expense is equal to its contributions to the plan.

In a defined benefit pension plan, a periodic payment, typically based on the employee’s salary, is promised to the employee upon retirement and the employer contributes to an investment trust that generates the principal growth and income to meet the pension obligation. The employees do not direct the investments in their accounts as they do in a defined contribution plan. Pension expense for a defined benefit plan has several components, including service cost, prior service cost, and interest cost, and depends on actuarial assumptions and the expected rate of return on plan assets.
