Which retirement
plan should you select?
For the business owner,
there are six primary tax deductible options to
consider for retirement: SEP IRA; Profit
Sharing/Money Purchase Pension Plan;
SIMPLE IRA/401(k); 401(k); Solo 401(k) and defined
benefit plans (pension plans). Defined Benefit
Plans are common but warrant
separate attention. In some
circumstances, tax-deductible contributions well
over $46,000 can be made.
For the individual,
the decision is much simpler. Individual
IRA’s, Roth IRA’s and Rollover IRA’s to defer taxes
from employer retirement plan distributions are the
most popular options. For 2008, the maximum
IRA (Individual & Roth) contribution is $5,000 with
an additional $1000 for those age 50 or older.
Availability of the Roth IRA and tax deductibility
of the individual IRA may be limited by your income.
