These plans allow the key employees to contribute up to the maximum dollar limit of $20,500 for 2022 as their 401(k) elective deferral without regard to what the other employees contribute. The maximum deferral for 2022 is $27,000 if a participant is age 50 or over

    An important deadline is on the horizon for California business owners. By June 30, 2022 employers with five or more employees are required to have a retirement plan in place for workers — either through a private-market option, like a 401(k), or through the state-run CalSavers program
    CalSavers: California retirement savings plan
    A by-product of state-mandated retirement legislation, CalSavers is designed to improve the financial security of Californians working in the private sector. It also presents an opportunity for small business owners who otherwise wouldn’t have been able to afford the overhead or administrative costs of a retirement plan to keep employees engaged and attract new talent.

    What is CalSavers?

    CalSavers is a retirement savings program sponsored by the State of California, facilitated by businesses and funded by employee savings. It has no employer fees or fiduciary responsibility and minimal administrative upkeep, making it relatively simple for businesses to participate.

    Do you have the old type of life insurance you have to die to use?

    Do you have the old type of life insurance you have to die to use?

    The time for you to get life insurance is now. Its an easy step you can take today from your home. Do it for you and do it for your loved ones. 
    Do you need to protect your family? Would you like to create a tax free retirement? Life insurance allows you to accomplish both these objectives very efficiently and affordably.
    Why Life Insurance In the event of a tragedy, life insurance proceeds can help cover everyday expenses, like the mortgage and household bills. The cash received from a policy (the death benefit) can help protect your family from being burdened with debt. In addition to helping meet your family’s immediate financial needs, life insurance can also be used to help keep a business thriving, help finance future needs like your children’s education or supplement your retirement funds.
    You may know the distinct pride you get in purchasing your own home or car. Ownership can give a certain comfort, a certain satisfaction that your financial stability is solid, secure, and even permanent.

    Protect Your Most Valuable Employees

    Protect Your Most Valuable Employees

    An Executive Bonus plan using life insurance can provide a simple yet powerful retention fringe benefit for business owners and key employees. Another advantage is the business may be able to take a current tax deduction for the bonus paid in the executive bonus plan.
    The business pays a tax-deductible bonus to fund premiums for a life insurance policy personally owned by the business owner.The business owner designates a beneficiary for the death benefit. The business owner may have access to policy cash values on a tax-favored basis to address personal needs such as supplemental retirement income.
    *The business owner employee pays income tax on the bonus received. At death, the business owner’s beneficiary receives the death benefit proceeds, generally income tax-free.
    You carry insurance coverage to protect your business from the loss of property and equipment, but what about your most valuable asset—your key employees? A key employee may be the owner, a partner, a top executive or an important member of your organization with unique talents, experience or skills that are crucial to the prosperity of your business. Key person life insurance protects your business from the financial impact of the loss of an essential employee.
    As a business owner, you understand that one of your most valuable assets is the creative talent of your key employees. Your competitors also understand this and compete for the very same talent. You need a protection strategy that will give your key team members a strong incentive to remain employed at your organization. One way of managing this challenge is to offer an attractive compensation package. But salary alone may not be enough. An executive bonus plan (also known as a Section 162 bonus plan) may provide a simple solution. These plans are designed to help you attract and retain key employees.

    FRESNO ENTREPRENEUR LAUNCHES ONE-STOP BANKING APP

    FRESNO ENTREPRENEUR LAUNCHES ONE-STOP BANKING APP

    Marshawn Govan, President and CFO of MKG Insurance Agency and MKG Tax Consultants, has unveiled a comprehensive banking app that rolls many services, from taxes to crypto, under one banner.
    Published On March 10, 2022 - 11:35 AM
    Written By Frank Lopez at The Fresno Business Journal
    https://thebusinessjournal.com/fresno-entrepreneur-launches-one-stop-banking-app/


    The tax season is upon us, and while every taxpayer encounters some confusion when filing, the uphill tax battle is even steeper for businesses.

    A local tax and insurance consulting agency has launched an app to make the filing process for personal and business owners quicker and simpler.

    MKG Insurance Agency and Tax Consultants, with two locations in Fresno, released its banking-as-a-service tax app for both the IOS and Android platform in February.

    President and CFO Marshawn Govan said it was important to launch the mobile app during Black History Month to honor the contributions African-Americans have made throughout history — and to recognize the fight for racial justice going on to this day.

    The app allows users to open bank accounts from their mobile phone, send and receive ACH (Automated Clearing House) payments, pay bills and manage cash flow securely online with an FDIC-insured business bank account.

    The new app is a rebuild from an old version with an IBM license—meaning MKG didn’t own the source code for app. The new app was built specifically for MKG, meaning there is no limit for the license and no costs to renew it.

    Most tax companies with mobile apps use third-party developers, leasing the software as a service.

    “We are originators and developers of what we have in the market,” Govan said. “We can also branch out, white label it and offer that as a software service to other tax companies — to a bank looking to become a green product.”

    The app also helps consumers start the process of buying a home.

    Govan said the goal is to help underprivileged and underbanked families access credit to affordably finance auto loans, home improvements, home solar systems, down payments, investment and paying off debts.

    While it is unique that a local tax and insurance agency has its own specifically developed app, MKG also offers crypto tax service.

    Users will be able to buy, sell and exchange crypto currency. The company even launched its own crypto-token — Token MKG Enterprises Corp.

    According to Govan, no other tax firm is offering a crypto token.

    The app also features money-wiring services such as Cash app and Venmo.

    Users that are business owners will be able to open a business banking account, send and receive money and make check deposits — much like other banking apps on the market.

    Currently MKG is doing regulation crowdfunding, allowing retail investors that might not be accredited to invest smaller amounts. With smaller investment amounts, Govan said it gives them an opportunity to share in the company’s future growth without them having to invest a large part of their finances.

    MKG is preparing to go public in 2022 to be listed on the OTC market. Govan said that investors have the opportunity to invest now before it grows.

    Govan said there are a lot of barriers for Black people and other underserved communities regarding financial equity, and the FinTech industry is not one where Black people normally...
