2 Mistake 1 Notes: 2
3 Mistake 2 Leaving 401(k) behind after change of employment. Notes: 3
4 Mistake 3 Placing IRAs in a trust absent any good reasons. Notes: 4
5 Mistake 4 Failure to take required minimum distributions (RMD) 50% missed RMD penalty Example: You reach 70 ½ in The first RMD must be made by April 1 of Subsequent RMD after the required beginning date (RBD) must be made by December 31, Notes: 5
6 RMD Calculation Example Prior year-end account balance / life expectancy = RMD IRA account owner ago 80 with prior year-end account balance $300,000 RMD = $16,043 ($300,000/18.7) Notes: 6
7 RMD Example - Inherited IRA Inherited IRA: 42 year old son RMD $7,194 ($300,000/41.7) 3 year old grandchild RMD $3,764 ($300,000/79.7) Notes: 7

11 New Taxes 2013 and 2014 Looking Forward Presented by: Angela H.

12 Five Affordable Care Act Taxes Additional Medicare Tax on Earned Income Net Investment Income Tax Increased Threshold for Medical Expenses Limit on Flexible Spending Account Contribution Medical Device Tax 12
13 Additional Medicare Tax on Earned Income 0.9% additional Medicare tax applies to wages and net self-employment income beginning in Applies to earned income over $200,000 for single, head-of-household, or surviving spouse, $250,000 for married filing jointly, $125,000 for married filing separately. Applicable thresholds are not adjusted for inflation. Applies to employee s share of earned income and does not apply to employer s employment taxes. Employers are required to apply the additional withholding at $200,000 of compensations. 13
14 Additional Medicare Tax on Earned Income Example 1 (possible under withholding): Husband s W-2 Medicare wages $185,000 Wife s W-2 Medicare wages $115,000 No additional withholding but still owe additional Medicare tax of $450 ($185,000 + $115,000 - $250,000) x 0.9% Example 2 (possible over withholding): Husband s W-2 Medicare wages $35,000 Wife s W-2 Medicare wages $210,000 The employer of the wife is required to withhold an additional 0.9% additional Medicare tax of ($90) on the $10,000 taxable wages over the $200,000 threshold. Maximizing contributions to a qualified retirement plan such as 401(k) or a 403(b) would not impact the Additional Medicare Tax calculation although it does reduce box 1 Wages, tips & other compensation for federal income tax withholding purposes. However it does impact estimated taxes. 14

Threshold amount is $200,000 for single taxpayers and heads-of-households; $250,000 for married filing jointly and surviving spouses; $125,000 for married filing separately. 15
16 Net Investment Income Tax (NIIT) What is net investment income? Example: a. Gross income from interest, dividends, annuities, royalties, and rents. b. Other gross income from any passive trade or business. c. Net gain from the disposition of property from passive activities. 16
17 Net Investment Income Tax (NIIT) Strategies: Reduce modified adjusted gross income Implement timing strategies Examples: a. Make retirement plan contributions b. Purchase tax-exempt bonds c. Transfer interests in pass-through entities to family members d. Installment sales 17
18 Increased Medical Expenses Threshold Increased threshold to 10% of adjusted gross income for a deduction Over age 65 threshold remains at 7.5% through 2016 For alternative minimum tax purposes threshold remains at 10% 18
19 Flexible Spending Accounts Limit $2,500 maximum contribution Reduce Box 1 amount on W-2 Before 2013, unlimited contribution is allowed while employer can impose contribution limit. Results: $13 billion annual tax increase 19
20 Medical Device Tax 2.3% excise tax posed on sale of certain medical devices Manufacturer, producer, or importer of the device is subject to the excise tax when the product is sold. Applies to sales of taxable medical devices after December 31, Impact: costs eventually passed on to consumers Statutory exemptions: eyeglasses, contact lenses, hearing aids and certain other generally purchased devices. 20
21 The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 Extended through 2013: $250,000 of IRC Section 179 expense for leasehold-improvement, restaurant and retail-improvement property. 50% bonus depreciation and 15-year depreciation on qualified real estate. 21
