This is not a class on what is an IRA. As a CPA, Enrolled Agent, Attorney, or tax preparer you already know what an IRA is. Most of you think of an IRA as an Individual Retirement Account, I want you to think of it as an Individual Retirement Arrangement. So what's the difference? You can have multiple IRA accounts in multiple locations, banks, and brokerage houses. You can have it set up as a traditional, non-deductible, or even as a Roth IRA all of which is completely acceptable. But when we look at contributions as an example it's not a contribution to a specific account it's the total contribution to the arrangement. So, why would I do all of these IRAs when I can set up a qualified plan that allows me greater contributions. Qualified plans include full-time employees and after the security act, the calculations for determining full-time employees have changed. Join us as we travel across the traps and pitfalls to success in determining which one is the best for your unique situation.

• State the difference between an IRA and a qualified Plan.
