Creating a Checking/Savings Account from the Structured Income Planning Page

From the Structured Income Planning page, you have the ability to add various types of accounts to your structured income plan. Below is a hypothetical example demonstrating how to add a High‑Yield Savings Account (HYSA) from the Structured Income Plan landing page. 

Assets: 

  • High-Yield Savings Accounts (HYSA): $40,000, Tax Growth Only, growing at 3.5% 

SIPS Advanced offers five Tax Calculation Options for Accounts:



Step 1: Edit: Click on the green Edit button underneath the Structured Income Planning subheading.  



Step 2: Add Account: Click on the green Add Account underneath the Structured Income Planning subheading. 



Step 3: Account Name: Enter the Account name. (HYSA)



Step 4: Initial Account Balance: Enter the account balance. SIPS only recognizes whole numbers. Adding a comma is optional; SIPS recognizes both formats. 



Step 5: Hypothetical Return: Enter the numeric hypothetical return. If there is no hypothetical return, this box can be left at the default amount of zero. 



Step 6: Tax Calculation Option Dropdown Arrow: Select the dropdown arrow in the Tax Calculation textbox and choose Tax Growth Only (NQ Interest). Since this is a High‑Yield Savings Account, the annual growth will be taxed as taxable interest. 



Step 7: Save: Click the green Save button underneath the Manage Account Subheading. 



Step 8: HYSA Column: The HYSA savings account will automatically be displayed on the Accounts side of the Structured Income Plan. If you feel you need more support or would like to set up demo time with one of our representatives, please contact us at: support@planscout.com
