SEP IRA - For Last Minute Tax Deductions
Virginia - February 24, 2003 - The SEP IRA is one of the few remaining methods for small business owners to cut their taxes for last year.
Employer contributions made to a Simplified Employee Pension-Individual Retirement Account, known as a SEP plan, before a company's tax filing deadline are deductible for 2002.
This holds true even if the SEP plan is set up and the contributions are made in 2003."A SEP-IRA allows small business owners and sole proprietors in a very simple manner to cut their tax liability by making retirement contributions for their eligible employees," says Daniel Lamaute, retirement plan specialist at InvestSafe.com and CEO of Lamaute Capital, Inc.The SEP-IRA has several main advantages for employers, says Lamaute.
"Employers get a tax deduction while the SEP-IRA contribution is not taxed as income to the employees.
The earnings within the SEP IRA are taxed deferred until the participant pulls money out, usually at retirement." Employers can contribute annually up to 25% or $40,000 of an employee's wages, whichever is less.
An employer is not required to make contributions in any year or maintain a certain level of contributions to a SEP plan.
But, the employer must contribute the same percentage amount for all eligible employees. Eligible employees include all employees who are at least age 21 and have been with a company for 3 years out of the immediately preceding 5 years.
Employers have the option to establish less restrictive participation requirements, if desired."A SEP-IRA is an excellent choice for the entrepreneurs, as well," says Lamaute "It affords them a vehicle with favorable tax treatment to put away money for their retirement.
It's hassle free, cheap and very easy to set up.
Nothing has to be filed with the IRS to establish the SEP-IRA or subsequently unlike other retirement plans that may require IRS annual returns"

Rules of Simple IRA Your Business Needs to Know
A Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees plan, better known as a SIMPLE plan, is an IRA-based retirement plan available to employers with fewer than 100 employees. Under a SIMPLE IRA plan, an employee can contribute a portion of his pay to his SIMPLE IRA account. An employee can make a maximum contribution of $9,000, ($10,500 if age 50 and over), to his SIMPLE IRA account for 2004. You, the employer, are required to make a contribution for every worker who receives $5,000 or more in compensation. You can match up to 3% of the salary for the employees who contribute to their SIMPLE IRA account.
You only have to match for those employees who contribute to the plan. In any 2 years out of a 5 year period, after notification to the employees, you may elect a lower matching contribution percentage but not less than 1% of salary. Your business also has the option to select a "non-elective" mandatory company match of 2% of annual salary for every employee. Under the "non-elective...

WHAT IS A TRADITIONAL IRA?
With a traditional Investment Retirement Account (IRA) you pay taxes when you take the money out at retirement in the future. Make sure that this account is really worth opening in your situation because what you put in the account today may be fully deductible, partially deductible or non deductible, depending upon your income and other retirement coverage. If you contributions are not fully deductible then this account is probably not for you. The traditional (and Roth IRAs) allow you to save $3,000.00 in 2004 and $4,000.00 in 2005. If you are over 50 years old you can save an additional $500.00 as catch-up.
You put the maximum amount in if you (or your spouse) are not covered at any time during the tax year by a retirement plan, including a 401(k) account, at work. If you can't afford to save the maximum then just do the best that you can.If you are single or a head-of-household taxpayer with annual adjusted gross income (AGI) between $40,000 and $50,000 and are eligible for...
