How it Works

Diagram of how the Principal S Corp Bonus Plan works.

Owner Advantages

  • Provides funding for needs such as retirement, disability and death protection
  • Provides flexibility to choose either compensation or dividends as the funding source
  • Depending on the funding vehicle chosen, can offer the opportunity for tax diversification planning
  • Provides certain protections from creditors in some situations

Owner Considerations

  • Depending on the owner's tax situation, in some cases it is an issue whether the owner contributions are after tax.
  • If there is more than one owner and a dividend design is used, the distributions need to be in proportion to ownership.
  • Depending on the financial asset selected, it may be subject to the owner's general creditors.
  • Depending on the financial asset selected, annual taxation of earnings may apply.
