Pension Contribution Calculation

501 Views

Hi all,

I'm setting up Canadian defined contribution and defined benefit pension plans in SAPs benefits module under "Savings Plans". The employee contribution for one plan should be 2.5% of earnings up to YMPE and 5% after that (where YMPE is $48,300 for 2011). For example, someone with earnings of $60,000 would be able to contribute:

2.5% of 48300 = 1207.5

5% of (60000-48300) = 585

1207.5 + 585 = $1792.5.

Is there a way to satisfy the above requirements using the Employee Contribution Rules under Savings Plans? How do I configure a 2.5% up to YMPE and 5% after YMPE?

Thanks,

Chirag
