CPE Self-Study Notes:
Social Security and Medicare are fundamental to the retirement of most Americans. Over 90% of retirees receive Social Security benefit checks each month. For nearly 75% of senior citizens, Social Security is the primary source of income. And it is the only source of income for almost one-third of retirees. In fact, without Social Security, nearly 50% of Americans would live in poverty. That means that it is fundamental for accountants to be familiar with these programs. This course defines them in easy-to-understand terms, which can be shared with clients. It includes information on how Social Security benefits are taxed, and how benefits are reduced for the working retired. This can be a complex topic for those nearing or in retirement who would like to work, but don’t know how their extra income will impact their Social Security benefits and their income taxes.
