COME IN & DISCUSS A PLAN TO SUIT VOU. IMPORTANT NEW TAX LAWS AFFECT EVERY WAGE EARNER As of January 1, 1982, every wage earner, even though they are active participants in an employer sponsored pension plan, can make tax-sheltered contributions to an Individual Retirement Account (I.R.A). Your I.R.A contributions will accumulate tax-deferred with compounded interest until retirement. The following are some of the important points concerning the new pension regulations. WHAT IS AN INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT (I.R.A.)? An I.RA is a personal tax sheltered retirement savings plan. Millions of American workers are using I.R.A's to both reduce their taxes and bOild a more secure future for themselves and their families. WHO NEEDS AN I.R.A.? Just about everyone who wants to retire comfortably. To maintain your current life style it is estimated that you will need between 70% - 80% of your pre-retirement income when you retire. Since Social Security will contribute only about 30% and a pension plan approximately 30% more • an I.R.A can make the difference for a comfortable, independent retirement. ARE THERE DIFFERENT TYPES OF I.R.A.'s? Yes. Contributory I.R.A's are for wage earning individuals. Spousal I.R.A's are for married couples where only one spouse is employed. WHAT ARE THE MAXIMUM CONTRIBUTIONS? Maximum contribution for Contributory I.R.A is $2,000. Maximum contribution for Spousal I.R.A is $2,250. (100% of compensation, whichever is less) WHEN ARE TAXES PAID? No Federal income tax is paid on either savings or interest until distribution begins. At that time most individuals are in a lower tax bracket, with perhaps more exemptions available so that the tax savings can be considerable. WHEN ARC THE BENEFITS PAID? Anytime after 59*4, but payments must start before 70*4... or upon permanent disability or upon death (to named beneficiaries). You may elect to receive your retirement benefits in a lump sum or if you wish on a regular scheduled basis. HOW ARE BENEFITS TAXED? Benefits are taxed as ordinary income as they are received in a taxable year. If you choose to receive your benefits in a lump sum, you may be able to use the five year income averaging provisions available to all taxpayers. HOW IS AN I.R.A. STARTED? Opening an I.R.A is as easy as opening a Savings Account. Don't wait until the end of the year because you probably will have a difficult time saving up enough money in a short time • so start now. HOW DOES I.R.A. SAVE ME TAX DOLLARS? For Federal income tax purposes, contributions to your I.R.A are fully deductible from gross income, up to the maximum allowed by law. You may make this deduction even though you do not itemize other deductions. During the years the plan is in force, earned interest is also added to your I.R.A Thes; earnings are also tax^eferred. Compounding of the interest over the years generates more dollars to build a retirement fund significantly larger than would be possible with taxed doi lars. In addition, you realize further benefit because your I.R.A contribution puts you in a lower tax bracket. S ALWAYS SERVING YOU ALL WAYS!
