Talk:Substantially equal periodic payments

Untitled
Could we have an example of the three kinds of distributions, say with: with the output showing what the periodic payments would be on an annual basis. I could give this a shot but I have never made this calculation before and would appreciate someone to verify my numbers. Kevinp2 23:29, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * IRA with value of $100,000
 * Owner at age of 40 with life expectancy of 80


 * For the fixed amortization schedule, it is done just as a mortgage payment is done, as they describe using the fixed interest rate. In your example of $100,000 with age 40 and LE of 80, an interest rate of 5% would give a monthly payment of $482, or yearly of $5786.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.223.226.6 (talk) 14:19, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

In particular, Roth IRA distributions taken under the SEPP rule will be taxed as income a second time --- a substantial penalty.
I do not think this is necessarily true. Cite? See chart here: http://www.investopedia.com/university/retirementplans/rothira/rothira3.asp#axzz21gD0RtsN — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.168.131 (talk) 23:27, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Significance, history, comparison to other schemes, etc.
Rather than just a barrage of rules, could some helpful soul knowledgeable in this area please add some explanations of why this thing exists, who it benefits, how it came to be, how it compares with mechanisms in other retirement accounts, other countries, etc.? --Doradus (talk) 17:08, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Why is this notable? What is the significance of this ruleset? WantsToWriteALot (talk) 23:50, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
