    All the statements are false

    Explanation:

    A simplified employee pension (SEP) retirement plan can be set up by an employer or by someone that is self-employed. The employer benefits from the SEP because his contributions are tax deductible. The employer's contributions to SEP individual retirement accounts is completely discretionary, they don't have to follow a fixed rate or amount. The contributions must be equally proportional to all full time employees. The main advantage of a SEP plan is that it is very simple to set up.
