Choose the right study manual with worry-free purchasing. 

This manual consists of my course outline and review questions that have been inserted into the various sections of the outline. It reflects the course syllabus as published in 2021. Most, but not every topic is covered in this outline. 

The 2024 edition has been updated from 2023 to correct any errata and add new clarifying material. The edition includes any increases in limitations that are updated annually by the Department of the Treasury and PBGC. (Note that while these limitations are noted in the body of the sample questions in this manual, they would not be included in the body of an actual exam question since tables
of historical limitations and factors needed to solve the problems are provided with the exam – see the Joint Board program document).

This manual assumes knowledge of the material covered on the EA-1 exam. Note that the pension law
exam (EA-2L) does not presume knowledge of the material from the funding exam (EA-2F).
