Answer to Question 1

Answer: Profit sharing is a compensation plan that results in the distribution of a predetermined percentage of the firm's profits to employees. Many firms use this type of plan to integrate the employees' interests with those of the company. There are several variations of profit-sharing plans, but three basic kinds of plans used today are current profit sharing, deferred profit sharing, and combination plans. Current plans provide payment to employees in cash or stock as soon as profits have been determined. Deferred plans involve placing company contributions in an irrevocable trust, credited to individual employees' accounts. The funds are normally invested in securities and become available to the employee (or his or her survivors) at retirement, termination, or death. Combination plans permit employees to receive payment of part of their share of profits on a current basis, while deferring payment of part of their share.
