What is the amount of the annual defined contribution plan limit?

The amount which may be added to the account of a participant - the annual addition -- may not exceed the lesser of (a) a dollar amount, e.g., $40,000 with respect to 2002, adjustable annually; and (b) 25% of the participant's compensation for the year. An annual addition consists of the sum of employer contribution, any employee contribution and any forfeiture allocated to a participant.
