Focused Topic 04: Form 5330 for Late Deposit of Deferrals
Presentor: Derrin Watson Recorded Date: 9/24/2013 Duration: 60 Min.

Description
This program was recorded during a live presentation on September 24, 2013.

Form 5330 for Late Deposit of Deferrals
Tuesdays with Derrin and Steve

It’s bad enough that a plan must compute and deposit lost earnings when an employer is late in depositing elective deferrals. But the employer must also prepare and file Form 5330 to report a prohibited transaction penalty tax. The tax itself is frequently less than the time and trouble spent completing the form.

This one-hour program explores the details of 5330 preparation for late deposits, including interest rates, timing, and computations.

Topics include:

  • Filing deadlines
  • Computation of amount involved
  • Interest rate (not DOL calculator)
  • Continuous transaction issues
  • Computations involving multi-year transactions
  • Effect of principal payment without depositing earnings
  • $100 de minimis rule?
  • Consequences of failure to file
  • PTIN requirements

Prerequisites: There are no prerequisites or advance preparation for this program. However, the instructor assumes participants understand the basic mechanics of correcting late deposit of elective deferrals.

Level: Intermediate
