Form 1120-S & K-1 - ENGAGE CPAs
The 1120S is the business tax return you'll need to file if you own an S-Corporation. This is where you'll show the S-Corporation's business income and any deductible businesses expenses that will be used to reduce that income.
No tax is owed to the federal government at the business level, but all S-Corporation income is subject to ordinary income tax. Ordinary income tax is paid at the individual level, on Form 1040. And the way the owners of an S-Corporation know how much of the business income is theirs for the year is by the K-1s that are produced within the 1120S. A K-1 is created for each owner of the S-Corporation, showing the total taxable income that is theirs for the year. The owner then takes that K-1 and inputs it on their return, so that it's included in their taxable income for the year.
The 1120S is due every year by March 15th, with an option for a 6-month extension. But you can't file your individual tax return without your K-1 from your S-Corporation.

Forms 941 and 940 are only required for businesses that pay employees payroll. This is an important distinction.

A sole prop is a disregarded entity in the eyes of the IRS, which means that the IRS sees no difference between John Smith...

This is a tax that you collect from your customer at the time of the sale, and are then in charge of remitting to the government agency. This is NOT a tax on you or your income.

If you don't have access to e tides because it is retired and you cannot get that number for identification.Should you use your social security number?
Thank you for your information, what I need to fill if I just rent my room for a few weeks ? How I should put my rental income in my tax return ? Your advice is highly appreciated
I've been trying to understand the C-corp on the internet, and it's very easy, except for a few points which no one is expanding on. 1) When starting up a C-corp you determine how much stock to issue and set a price so you have the funds to get the business running and hire all down through the organization, hire a law firm, CPA, etc. If the business model attracts investors, I have the $$ to hire who I need and the investors become part owners as to the amount of shares they own. How do you keep them from interceding in day to day decisions? 2) As the sole owner, on day one can I give myself X amount of unissued stock shares so I hold a 51% majority? 3) Since this is a private company and the shares aren't traded in the stock market, is the value of the outstanding shares the number of shares divided into the cash on the books? 4) If the investors want to sell their shares and get out, how does that work without a market? 5) If once the business is running and I want to woo a high value person away from another company, how do I fund that with stock.
Sir...Thank you so much for this video! Between your video and 2 more, I was able to successfully open my new account and catch up on my payments! I had a few glitches here and there but it all worked and I would have been lost without your video!
E-tides is retired, I can't get the revenue ID that way, is that the same as the account number on your sales tax license?

cant even make an account on this website. does PA even want people to pay their taxes?

Do your research...If you want to share your money with others, this is a really good way to do it. It's not a forced situation, you give at your leisure. TOTALLY CIVILIZED WAY TO GIVE TO OTHERS AS YOU SEE FIT .
This is a great video!!!
Thank you, Susan!😄
Setting it up was fairly easy. However, paying is impossible. Everytime I click on "file now", I am taken to a status saying "overdue" with empty drop down menus. It's setup not to be payable, so they can add overdue penalties. E-TIDES was much easier. I don't make enough anyway from hobby renting to justify this level of aggravation. I would rather work a little more shift work.
I am a foreigner who has a C Corp in the US. Would it make sense to sell services from my European company to my US Company as in my country corporate tax is around 10% and otherwise in the US I was supposed to pay 21%. Would you recommend this? Thanks for the great content!
Thanks for the video, but it's completely counter to what the "professionals" at PA Gov told me to do; after finally reaching someone after days of trying to call. Neither suggestion works. MyPath picks and chooses what it will allow as information, usually giving an error message. Also, what if we don't have Revenue ID? Because no form of ID information will get past this horrible site's error messages. Everyone that I've spoken to that used the old system (PA100) said it was pretty simple. This is horrible! The site is garbage and, if you can actually get someone of the phone from the state, they seem to have no idea what's going on. The form on My Path that I was directed to seemed like it was the wrong one as I was filling it out, then it vanished and I don't have access to it any longer. So now I'm resorting to posting a god damned comment on youtube to get a god damned sales permit! Thanks for letting me vent! I'd leave this stupid state tomorrow if I could.
I’m having the same issue.
damn looks like everyone is dealing with the same thing smh
Thanks for making the process go smoothly onto the new platform!

So bonuses arent taxed as bad as dividends?
Bonuses are taxed at ordinary income tax rates (which go up as your income increases). But be careful because when a bonus is run through payroll, they only withhold a flat 22% for federal payroll taxes, regardless of what your W4 says. So often, high-income earners end up having too little withheld and will owe more money at tax time. That's the reason that bonuses have a stigma of being taxed higher. It's just a timing difference. Dividends, on the other hand are taxed at 0%, 15% or 20% depending on your income, which is lower than most people's ordinary income tax rate.
@@engagecpas ahhhhh this makes sense!! Thank you!! What about if your income is inconsistent where one month you can make money but for a few months after you can't? Are you still able to use a salary for that? Or are you stuck with using dividends?
@@engagecpasThat's why it would be good to know when bonuses are coming so you can adjust ur w4 accordingly to increase withholding for a certain period then adjust it back right? Lol
Great video !!! I have a 501(3) org if I do a sponsorship with a C-Corp can the C-Corp write the sponsorship off as a marketing expense? Or should they take it as a regular charitable donation up to the 10% limit over 5 years?
Thank you for making this video. I don’t understand why PA didn’t include a thorough tutorial such as this one, on the website.
I cannot thank you enough for this video!
Hi, how much tax I will pay if I withdraw different amounts every other month? I to pay myself by a check…..Thanks.
If you're taking money out of the business that isn't through payroll (with taxes withheld), that's a dividend. You'll pay tax on those dividends taken when you file your 1040 income tax return. The federal income tax rate for dividends is 15-20% depending on your total household income for that year.

Hello do I have to register a side hustle as a business to pay sales tax? I have a wedding photography side hustle/business - andwill do around 10 weddings this year
Yes, regardless of whether its your main source of income or just a side gig, if the service or products you're providing are subject to sales tax, you should register, collect and remit that sales tax. Otherwise, the state could come after you and require YOU to pay the sales tax that your client should have paid at the time of the sale.
Tried everything and can't get on. error message. I call and the wait time is really long. How do you get a letter?
I’m having same issue
what if signing up as LLC?
can I add E-Tides (Sales Tax filing) to my existing personal myPATH account OR do I need to create new account just for the business filing?
I'd suggest creating a brand new MyPath login using a different email address.
Same issue here
If the error is that they can't verify the account, you should be able to request a Letter ID by mail. It's not immediate but it does allow you to get access to the account within MyPath.
I cannot seem to get past the part with the three columns, the account info with the email, pass, etc. It keeps giving me an error. Would you happen to know what the problem might be?
Did you ever figure this out? I'm also having this issue.
