Age-Weighted Profit Sharing Plan

An Age Weighted Profit Sharing Plan uses age as well as compensation as a basis for allocating plan contributions. This plan favors the older highly compensated participant. It must follow all of the basic profit sharing rules. As such, contributions are limited to 15% of compensation. Unlike Target and Money Purchase Plans, the Age Weighed Plan may have discretionary contributions providing the employer flexibility.
