According to a recent Pew study, the top reason why small businesses do not sponsor a 401(k) plan today is cost. Higher tax credits may promote better implementation and utilization of corporate sponsored retirement plans.
Before the SECURE Act, a small business (up to 100 employees) could claim a tax credit equal to 50% of their retirement plan startup costs, up to a $500 limit.
Now, the limit is the greater of (1) $500 or (2) the lesser of (a) $250 multiplied by the number of non-highly compensated employees eligible for plan participation or (b) $5,000. This credit is available for up to three years.
Learn how to take advantage of these savings with the Neponset River Regional Chamber 401(k) Program.
