    Posted 01-04-2022 12:32 PM
    HUSBAND AND WIFE ARE EQUAL EQUITY MEMBERS IN A LLC THAT WILL GENERATE NET INCOME IN EXCESS OF 500K
    IS THEIR COMBINED SEP CONTRIB IN TOTAL LIMITED TO 58,000?

    WOULD APPRECIATE A RESPONSE

    my understanding is that the SEP contribution is per person based upon with respective income.  I'm figuring that this entity is a MMLLC and taxes as a partnership.  Therefore, the SEP contribution would be limited to 20% of the net income or $50K ($500K / 2 = $250K *.2) for each member for a total of $100K.

    In the event that they are taxed as an S Corp, it would be 25% of their "compensation", which includes W-2 wages along with company paid benefits, etc.

    Hope this helps.
