Retirement Contribution Strategy

Plan what to fund now versus what to leave flexible until year-end. Solo 401(k) employee deferrals can be planned separately from employer-side contributions; Traditional IRA deductibility depends on final MAGI.

Fund now: Solo 401(k) employee

Entered$0
Estimated max$0
Remaining room$0

Employee deferral is usually the cleanest current-year lever because it does not consume employer-side SEP/Solo room.

Save for later: employer side

Solo employer entered$0
Estimated employer room$0
Room left$0

Employer-side funding is usually easier to finalize later when annual net earnings are clearer.

SEP IRA vs Solo 401(k)

SEP input statusAvailable
SEP-only max deduction$0
Solo max deduction$0

This planner favors Solo 401(k) once any Solo contribution is entered, because employee deferral plus employer room usually gives more flexibility than SEP alone.

Wait/check later: Traditional IRA

Entered$0
Deductible now$0
Non-deductible now$0

Traditional IRA deductibility may change with final MAGI, so waiting can prevent an accidental non-deductible contribution.

Official means the value was checked against published federal guidance. Maintained means the app stores the current Oregon values directly and they should be rechecked when Oregon publishes new annual guidance.

Tax Year

  • Uses 2026 federal brackets, standard deductions, Social Security wage base, retirement limits, and ACA applicable percentages.
  • Uses Oregon-specific brackets, standard deduction, federal tax subtraction, and personal exemption credit values entered in the calculator config.
  • Assumes the user is an Oregon resident unless they manually adjust local tax assumptions.

Income

  • Gross revenue and business expenses are treated as full-year self-employment amounts.
  • Home office uses the simplified $5 per square foot method, capped at 300 square feet.
  • Long-term capital gains receive preferential federal rates; short-term gains are included in ordinary income.

Deductions

  • Federal deduction uses the larger of itemized entries shown here or the standard deduction input.
  • QBI is simplified to 20% of positive business income below the configured income threshold.
  • Solo 401(k) employee deferrals are modeled separately from employer profit-sharing contributions.
  • SEP and Solo 401(k) employer-side contributions share the employer contribution room in this calculator to avoid double counting.
  • Traditional IRA contributions may still be allowed with SEP or Solo 401(k), but deductibility phases out when covered by a retirement plan.

Payments

  • Quarterly estimates divide current annual liability evenly across four quarters.
  • Prior quarter catch-up compares the current combined quarterly estimate to the amount paid in the immediately previous quarter.
  • Safe harbor messaging only checks the 90% current-year target shown here; it does not model prior-year safe harbor or annualized income installment methods.

ACA

  • ACA subsidy estimates use MAGI from this calculator plus any MAGI add-backs entered by the user.
  • The subsidy estimate depends on user-entered SLCSP benchmark and plan premium values.
  • Marketplace eligibility, household details, Medicaid rules, and reconciliation edge cases are simplified.

S-Corp

  • S-Corp output is a rough comparison model, not a recommendation to elect S-Corp status.
  • Reasonable compensation is estimated mechanically and should be reviewed with a professional.
  • Admin costs are modeled as a fixed annual amount and may not match the user's actual payroll, bookkeeping, or filing costs.
