Jason and Paula are married

Accounting Nov 29, 2020

Jason and Paula are married. They file a joint return for 2020 on which they report taxable income before the QBI deduction of $227,000. Jason operates a sole proprietorship, and Paula is a partner in the PQRS Partnership. Both are a qualified trade or business, and neither is a "specified services" business. Jason's sole proprietorship generates $170,800 of qualified business income and W-2 wages of $34,000 and has qualified property of $12,500. Paula's partnership reports a loss for the year, and her allocable share of the loss is $37,100. The partnership reports no W-2 wages, and Paula's share of the partnership's qualified property is $9,600.

Assume the QBI amount is net of the self-employment tax deduction.

What is their QBI deduction for the year?

Expert Solution

Taxable income before QBI deduction = $ 227000

 

So,

W2 wages / capital investment limitation is not applicable to them .

Jason 's QBI amount = $170,800 * 20%

=  $ 34160

 

Paula's QBI amount = - 37100 * 20%

= - 7420

 

Combined qualified business income amount = $ 34160 + ( - 7420 )

= $ 26740

 

The overall limitation based on the modified taxable income;

= $ 227000 * 20%

= $ 45400
