Deferred compensation is pay earned by an employee but received at a later date, often to reduce current taxable income or as part of a retirement plan. It includes pensions, 401(k) plans, and stock options, allowing employees to defer taxes until the funds are paid out. This can be beneficial for long-term financial planning.
Yes, deferred allowance is generally taxable, but when it's taxed depends on the structure.
Always consult a tax advisor or HR/payroll team for specifics based on your country’s regulations.
