Answer:
50% tax on the amount not distributed as required
Explanation:
In this specific scenario, the individual will have to pay a penalty of 50% tax on the amount not distributed as required. This is mainly due to the fact that traditional IRA accounts require that distribution of benefits must begin no later than age 70½ if immediate annuities are used to pay for them. Failure to do so would have a consequence of a 50% tax on the undistributed amount, and must be paid by the owner of the account.
