The question is
J is a one fourth partner in JKLM partnership. This partnership has gross sales of 880,000 Cost of sales of 540,000 and operating expenses of excluding payment to partners of 145,000 . Partner compensation of 90,000 (45,000) for J were paid and distributions of 120,000 (30,000) to J.
I have to determine the amount of income J must report from the partnership in the year.
I know 45,000 for compensation is included and also the distributions but on my notes I have
45,000+ 26,250= 71,250 where did this 26,250 come from ? wouldnt it be 30,000?
Explanation / Answer
profit=880000-540000-145000-90000=105000
distribution of j=105000/4=26250
