A method for calculating substantially equal periodic payments (SEPPs) from a retirement account under IRS Rule 72(t). The payment amount is determined by dividing the account balance by an annuity factor based on a chosen life expectancy table and a reasonable interest rate. Once calculated, the annual payment remains fixed.
