L1: SEPP calculatorHi, I’m just starting to determine my SEPP payment and I received an entirely different annual amortized amount from “bankrate’s 72T distribution calculator” as compared to the calculator on your site here. I was also unsure of two inputs on your calculator that were not asked of me when I used the other site’s calculator: These were something like “estimated interest rate” and “IRS penalty rate”. The estimated interest rate was a different entry asked for besides the 120% mid-term rate. If you want to double-check for me, my birthdate is 7/21/64, my IRA value that will be used for my SEPP is $695,000, and my first distribution date would be 7/31/2017. This site’s calculator gave me $26,118 (I entered zero for the two estimated interest field and IRS penalty field), but the bankrate calculator gave me around $32,000. I used 2.45% for the 120% midterm rate. I used single life selection. I am confused. Thanks.2017-06-01 17:02, By: Newbie87, IP: [104.129.204.148]
