Webcast outline can be viewed here.
In a non-standardized prototype, volume submitter or custom document, a plan document using the Section 414(s) safe harbor for compensation while excluding bonuses, commissions or overtime, etc., must pass the ratio compensation test in order for the plan to meet the 414(s) safe harbor. This webcast will use examples to demonstrate how the ratio-compensation test is to be run. The webcast will discuss and demonstrate, via example, handling the correction if the test fails. Lastly, it will cover what to do with a plan excluding bonuses and commissions in a permitted disparity allocation that is discovered as you map them to your document in a takeover plan; using full compensation in ADP/ACP testing; and failing the Section 414(s) ratio compensation test in a safe harbor 401(k) plan.
Key Takeaways:
1. Discover how to perform a ratio-compensation test
2. Identify options available for handling a failed ratio-compensation test
3. Outline strategies for holding the failed test discussion with the employer
