A 401(k) plan is suitable for a company of any size that is looking for a retirement solution that allows high levels of salary deferrals by employees. Plans are generally offered to all employees at least 21 years of age who worked at least 1,000 hours in the previous year.
Employee contributions are generally made with pre-tax dollars, although some 401(k) plans feature after-tax Roth contributions. Earnings grow tax-deferred.
The plan is funded with elective employee salary deferrals and optional annual employer contributions. The plan does not need to be funded annually. Employer contributions are tax-deductible up to 25% of participant compensation. Employee salary deferrals are fully vested immediately, while employer contributions vest according to plan terms.
Employees may make an elective salary deferral of up to $22,500 for 2023 and $23,000 for 2024 ($30,000 for 2023 and $30,500 for 2024 if age 50 or older), $66,000 for tax year 2023 and $69,000 for 2024 ($73,500 for 2023 and $76,500 for 2024 if age 50 or older).
