Navigating career transition, securing philanthropic legacy.
Linda Washington, approaching her partnership buyout with $1.5M in deferred compensation, faced the challenge of structuring her income stream to support both her living expenses and her commitment to a local foundation focused on legal aid. Her complex estate, including a blended family, added further complexity to her philanthropic planning and required careful consideration of tax implications and legacy goals.
Using the Bill Rate Calculator, we helped Linda determine the optimal hourly rate for her consulting work, ensuring she could maintain her desired income level while dedicating a portion to the foundation. We projected that working 500 billable hours at $750/hour would generate $375,000 in revenue annually, allowing her to donate $75,000 to the foundation and still maintain her income target. Complementing this, the Tax Equivalent Yield Calculator helped us evaluate the after-tax benefits of different investment options for her deferred compensation, maximizing her return while minimizing tax liabilities.
The Bill Rate Calculator was used to model various consulting scenarios, while the Tax Equivalent Yield Calculator helped determine the most tax-efficient investment vehicles. These results were then integrated into a comprehensive financial plan to guide Linda's career transition and philanthropic strategy.
