Employee Benefit Plans
Employee Benefit Plans
Profit Sharing Plan
The Company participates in a multiple employer 401(k) profit sharing plan (the Plan). All employees are eligible to participate, beginning with the first day of the month coincident with or immediately following the completion of one year of service and having reached the age of 21. In addition to employee contributions, the Company may contribute discretionary amounts for eligible participants. Contribution rates for participating employers must be equal. The Company contributed $4.7 million, $4.0 million and $3.6 million to the Plan for the years ended September 30, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Defined Benefit Plan
The Company acquired a noncontributory (cash balance) defined benefit pension plan from HF Financial which covers employees of HF Financial and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Effective July 1, 2015, the plan was frozen which eliminates future contributions for qualified individuals. The plan has not been terminated, so the plan continues to exist with related benefit obligations and plan assets for those vested within the plan.
The following table sets forth the pension plan funded status, using the valuation date of September 30, 2016:

The assumed expected long-term rate of return on pension assets used in the calculation for 2016 pension plan expense was 8.00%. Determination of the plan's expected long-term rate of return is based on the current asset allocation of the plan, as well as the historical and expected returns on each asset class. The expected long-term rate of return reflects forward-looking economic forecasts.
The investment policy of the pension plan is designed for growth in principal, within limits designated to safeguard against significant losses within the portfolio. The target allocation percentage ranges established, which may change from time to time, by investment category are detailed in the table below. Management believes there are no significant concentrations of risk with in the plan asset portfolio as of September 30, 2016.
