Alicia has been working for JMM Corp. for 32 years. Alicia participates in JMM’s defined benefit plan. Under the plan, for every year of service for JMM she is to receive 2 percent of the average salary of her three highest years of compensation from JMM. She retired on January 1, 2019. Before retirement, her annual salary was $570,000, $600,000, and $630,000 for 2016, 2017, and 2018. What is the maximum benefit Alicia can receive in 2019?

Answer:

$225,000

Explanation:

Alicia's total benefits = (2% x 32 years) x [($570,000 + $600,000 + $630,000) / 3] = 64% x $600,000 = $384,000

but Alicia will not be able to receive the full amount in 2019 since the IRS limits the maximum annual compensation received from a defined benefit plan to $225,000 (for 2019, it increased to $230,000 for 2020 and 2021). So Alicia would only receive $225,000 during 2019.
