Listen to Jay Freeborne, E.A. and Stuart Bloomfield of WATAX explore some of the pitfalls, tax implications, and solutions associated with mistakes in selecting how to set-up your entity on the latest "Welcome to the Resolution" Podcast.  How are $100,000 in profits is taxed by a C corp, S Corp and a sole proprietorship (single member LLC) to you the individual:   Sole prop: profit $100,000 - your tax bill is $28000 roughly (this includes $15,000 roughly to fund your Social Security Medicare.) plus you get deduct 20% for Qualified Business Deduction (QBI).  S corp: profit $100,000 - your tax bill is $15384. No Social Security/Medicare required on dividends. Although you should get on payroll! (probably for 50k in this situation and pay $7500 to soc/security medicare), plus you get to deduct 20% for QBI deduction.  C corp: company level profit $100,000 x 21% = $21000. Let's say you choose to pay yourself in dividends, you will then owe an additional $15,284 in taxes. And zero QBI DEDUCTION!!!  Partnership, multi member LLC - limited partners: $100,000 profit distributed to one partners has $15,284 taxes due. (If you are a General Partner you would pay Social security/medicare taxes on this income at 15.35% rate).  All of the above entities have their merits. But clearly the C Corp is the worst model for your average small business. You pay the most taxes with the fewest benefits. To make matters worse: C corps don’t even get the 20% QBI deduction like the other entities! Even sole props get the benefits of higher Social Security and medicare coverage for their high tax rate! S corp might just be the sweetest spot. You pay some Social Security taxes on your wages but not on your dividends.  Sponsored by Washington Tax Services - www.watax.com

Listen to Jay Freeborne, E.A. and Stuart Bloomfield of WATAX discuss options for small business entity set-up (sole-prop, single-member LLC, multi-member LLC, S Corp, C Corp) and the tax implication of those decisions. A few clarifying points from podcast: 1. We mention in video "S corp owner" can fund a 57k IRA, but this is only in situation where the owner ALSO sets up a SEP IRA for all employees as well (with different and lower IRA limits). 2. The C Corp tax rate is 21% not 22% as indicated!     Sponsored by Washington Tax Services WATAX, a staff of accountants and attorneys, has been solving tax problems for over 30 years.
