Neither, unless by "value of the death benefit" you mean fair market value of the policy. If so, Yes, No, No.

Respectfully? I think auditor is confusing 5500SF restrictions and requirements with those for the EZ.

Recover Embezzled Funds from Embezzler's 401k
Mike Preston replied to Chris B's topic in 401(k) Plans
Unless stealing from your business is for some reason a federal offense the mutt the likelihood is that it is a state crime. You therefore need ask an attorney in your state familiar with embezzlement. Whatever you do, don't do it without an attorney because if you try to handle it informally I've been told you can be charged yourself for interfering. What is most likely to happen is that the entertain you engage will coordinate with the prosecutor. Good luck.- 8 replies

Another allocation/contribution/deduction question

Right. I'd not deposit anything today. Instead, I'd wait for tomorrow, at the earliest. -

Keep in mind that the consequences are severe if the irs thinks you included somebody you should not have. -

Sounds like the plan is orphaned. Have you looked at the orphaned plan issue? Assuming the owner wants to put his/her head in the sand with respect to it being an orphaned plan, the answer to your question rests with the owner. If they treat the new plan as a related plan then it can't be a rollover, it has to be a transfer.

Amend out floor-offset language?
Mike Preston replied to Cloudy's topic in Defined Benefit Plans, Including Cash Balance
You amend out the floor if you amend out the offset. No can do. Unless you're talking about eliminating the offset in entirely. In that case you give big benefit increases and you're fine. -
Reasonable Classification - ABT
Mike Preston replied to EBECatty's topic in Retirement Plans in General
Close. The phrase "everyone's ABP is 10%" is unlikely to be true because ABP calculations always include deferrals. But O agree it is still likely to satisfy the ABPT. -

Mike Preston replied to Cloudy's topic in Defined Benefit Plans, Including Cash Balance
No can do. If they want to do that they must terminate the plan. -

Reasonable Classification - ABT
Mike Preston replied to EBECatty's topic in Retirement Plans in General
As long as the plan documents specify eligibility that runs in favor of FL and CA in plan 1 and just CA in plan 2 I can't imagine the circumstances that would preclude use of ABT. And in the absence of another plan won't you have a coverage percentage of 100% if the plans are aggregated for coverage? I must be missing something. -
Reasonable Classification - ABT

A reasonable classification must be enumerated in the document. -
