Retirement tax questions

Thanks a lot. @dmertz 

 

I did not get the point of " the profit sharing contribution for all participants must be based on the same base rate".

Which is correct?

for example, 

If the W2 spouse receives 20% profit sharing contribution of W2 wage in BOX1,  what's the rate for the owner of SMLLC? 1/(1+20%)=17.7%?

Or

Can the W2 receive 20% profit sharing contribution while the owner receives any rate like 10%?
