Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of a qualified retirement fund: A qualified retirement fund is a type of retirement plan that meets specific requirements set by the IRS, allowing for tax advantages for both employers and employees.

Recognize the tax benefits for the employer: Contributions made by the employer to a qualified retirement fund are typically tax-deductible, reducing the employer's taxable income.

Recognize the tax benefits for the employee: Contributions made to the fund by the employee are often made on a pre-tax basis, reducing the employee's taxable income for the year. Additionally, investment earnings within the fund grow tax-deferred until withdrawal.

Compare the options provided in the problem: Analyze each statement to determine which aligns with the tax benefits associated with qualified retirement funds.

Conclude that the correct answer is 'a tax benefit for both the employer and the employee,' as both parties receive distinct tax advantages from participating in a qualified retirement fund.
