Question

Which of the following are included in qualified business income (QBI)? (All income is effectively connected with a trade or business in the U.S.)

Betty's Form W-2 wages received from an S corporation.

Tom's guaranteed payments from a partnership.

Jane's Schedule C net profit.

Qualified Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) income.

Answer 1

The correct answers are letters "C" and "D": Jane's Schedule C net profit; Qualified Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) income.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Qualified Business Income Deduction or QBI allows up to 20% of deductions for people who file small businesses taxes in personal statements. The rule mainly applies to all those activities developed in a sole proprietorship. Capital gains, losses, dividends, and interest are not eligible for this type of deductions. A schedule C (form 1040) or a qualified Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) income can be subject to this deduction.
