a client has a retained fund of 170K, salary of 30K, 41NB, married. i am trying to calcuate what he is allowed to contribute to age 60 to reach max fund(i.e. 106%) my calculation are as follows:

170000 / 30000 x 9%= 0.509 is this 50.9% or is it 0.5%..?

106%-50.9% or 106%-0.5%....?

i would appreciate all suggestions... thanks
 
i got it from the Revenue Maximum Funding Rate chart, where he is male, 41NB, married gives me 106%...?

does that help at all..
 
Well in that case the revenue will require an actuarial statement every three years - why don't you get these figures from the scheme's actuary?

If he is your client I presume you are charging him a fee.

So what exactly is he paying for if you don't know how the system works ?. Does he know you come to an internet board to find out this stuff ? If he does know, do you think he would be happy ?

I'm sorry to sound severe, but you are "advising" someone on a pension strategy that will have major implications for the rest of your client's life. He/she deserves better. You should know better.
