Earlier this year, the sole-participant of a DB plan was paid out his 415 lump sum limit of about $2.3M at age 64.5. At the time, he already had 10 years of service and participation. His limit was based upon his average comp of $200,000, which was slightly lower than the $205,000 dollar limit. He is asking if there is any way for him to accrue an additional benefit. At first, I thought that he could do so by earning enough in 2013 - 2015 that his average comp would increase to $250,000. My thinking was that, since the dollar limit will probably increase above $205,000 (and, additionally, it is actuarially increased after age 65), his 2016 dollar limit would probably be above $250,000. However, it looks like, once he generates a new higher 415 limit by 2016, it will be completely offset by his 2013 payout of $2.3M actuarially increased to 2016. Am I thinking about this correctly? Any help would be appreciated!
