accounting-Windfall Inc. is managed by Gary. He also owns 30% of the company

Windfall Inc. is managed by Gary. He also owns 30% of the company. Windfall Inc., has two employees who are critical to the success of the firm who are also part owners, Scott and Steve. Justin, who is Gary’s brother-in-law also works at Windfall, Inc. He is not an owner of the company, but his wife, Sarah (Gary’s sister), owns 5% of the company. Wendi also works at the business and she is married to Gary’s other brother, Greg. Greg owns 8% of the company. Gary, Scott and Steve feel that cash flows from Windfall Inc. are sufficiently strong that they would like to look into implementing a retirement plan. They don’t want the plan to jeopardize their business continuity, but they do want to shelter as much of the current income as possible from taxation. All three of them have invested in the company, and the company represents the bulk of their entire savings for retirement. They have asked you to help them develop the most cost efficient retirement plan to implement that will give them the greatest benefit without having to pay too much of their money out for other employee’s retirement benefits. Gary, Scott, and Steve believe strongly that each employee is responsible for their own retirement savings. Gary currently has about $160,000 saved for retirement and wants to retire with about 65% of his preretirement wage. Between him and his wife he expects to receive $24,000 (today’s dollars) in SSB starting at age 62, when he retires. Plan to age 100. Please assume that investment returns will average 8.0 % and inflation will average 3.5%. Gary will sell his share in the business at retirement and he expects to be bought out for 1.5 X his ending salary. This may be a conservative amount, but that is all he wants to plan on for the sale of his business.

Listed below is a brief employee census. Normal retirement age for any plan is 65.
