Counting Plan Participants: Not as Easy as 1, 2, 3
Belfint Lyons & Shuman, CPAs [Guidance Overview] Jan. 13, 2014 "In many cases, the preparer of the Form 5500 erroneously counts only participants whose accounts were allocated a contribution during the year, or participants who have account balances. Both methods are incorrect and result in an inaccurate participant count. In many cases, the understated participant count results in a small plan filing, when the plan is actually a large plan that would have been required to attach audited financial statements for the plan to the Form 5500." |
