Executive Bonus Plan
Finding a way to motivate and retain executives may be solved by offering bonuses inside a Non-Qualified Plan. However, finding a vehicle to fund these bonuses can be challenging. Fortunately, Section 162 of the Internal Revenue Code may allow an employer to deduct certain expenses-including salary and other compensation that are ordinary and necessary business expenses. In its simplest form, an executive bonus plan is one in which an employer pays the premiums on a permanent life insurance policy owned by an employee or with certain carriers, can be owned by the company.
Using a Section 162 bonus plan may solve several finance challenges simultaneously including expensing excess profits, reducing potential tax liabilities, while helping retain key executives. The structure of these plans vary greatly and must be designed to meet your company’s unique needs.
