The S corporation issues a W-2 to the shareholder-employee just as it would to any employee. The shareholder-employee must include the wages on his or her federal income tax return. The company can then set up a defined benefit plan for employees of the corporation.
401(k) plan contributions If you are a common-law employee of the S corporation: you can make salary deferral contributions to the 401(k) plan based on your Form W-2 compensation; and. your employer can make matching or nonelective contributions to the plan based on your Form W-2 compensation as a common-law employee.
Defined benefit plans provide a fixed, pre-established benefit for employees at retirement. Employees often value the fixed benefit provided by this type of plan. On the employer side, businesses can generally contribute (and therefore deduct) more each year than in defined contribution plans.
The IRS has created rules and requirements for employers to establish defined-benefit plans. A company of any size can set up a plan, but it must file Form 5500 with a Schedule B annually. Furthermore, a company must hire an enrolled actuary to determine its plan's funding levels and sign Schedule B.
