Solo 401k Deduction

You can contribute as both employer and employee, offering tax-deductible contributions as the employer and pretax elective deferral contributions as the employee, along with tax-deferred growth potential on contributions.  

Solo 401(k) contributions are subject to FICA and FUTA tax.
