Solution
The correct answer is c. In an accumulation superannuation fund, the superannuation income varies depending on how well the plan's investments have performed. This is because the final benefit is determined by the amount of contributions made and the performance of the investments made with those contributions. The other options are not typically characteristics of an accumulation superannuation fund.
