Profit Sharing Plans | Profit Sharing Plans are often paired with 401k plans to provide additional benefits to both the employees and owners. Using a profit sharing component in addition to the 401k and match can allow an individual to reach the maximum annual contribution limit of $66,000 ($73,500 for those age 50 or more). Profit sharing contributions can be allocated to employees in myriad ways. Typically the profit sharing contribution is based on one or more of the following factors:

403b Plans | 403b Plans are quite similar to 401k plans. However, to sponsor a 403b plan, your organization must be a non-profit, exempt from federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). Because a 501(c)(3) nonprofit may also adopt a 401k plan, the organization should understand the differences between the two types of plans before deciding which type of plan to sponsor. Let us help you make the best decision for your organization. |
Traditional Defined Benefit Plans | Defined Benefit Plans can be structured in many ways. The hybrid defined benefit plan, called a cash balance plan, has become the most common type of defined benefit plan. Because of its popularity, defined benefit plans that are not cash balance plans are typically called “traditional defined benefit plans”. The traditional defined benefit plan provides the same maximum benefits as a cash balance plan, but the mechanics of how it works can create different funding and benefit results. Traditional defined benefit plans may be the better option for you if you are thinking about implementing a defined benefit plan. Call us to help determine which type of defined benefit plan is right for you. |
