Company

BAnnual salary of $46,000, a cafeteria plan under which employ- ees can choose benefits of up to 10% of annual salary or take the cash equivalent. In addition, the company has a flexible benefits plan in which employees may par- ticipate by setting aside up to 10% of annual salary per year for payment of unre- imbursed medical expenses.
