As a business attorney who teaches my clients this type of information ALL THE TIME, you broke this down so nicely! Well done!! 🙌🏾
Yeah he did. Frfr
One particular lawyer says that a lot of states wont recognize single member LLC for law suite protection. But I didn't know single member LLC is taxed same as sole proprietorship.
Is it safe to say reasonable salary should be 30%?
Does the distribution amount counts towards the total net amount? For example, he states he’s paying taxes on $50k, then received a distribution amount of $50k. Total net 100k. If I were purchasing a home, would the banks take into consideration the $50k or the $100k?
@@Pinkestluv I've thought about this too, and it's the 100k if I'm not mistaken, because it's still income, just not income that counts toward the SE tax.
“This isn’t going to be a long video” *37 mins later* 🤣🤣 Great content man!!
As an Accountant, folks look at like we’re crazy when we say this! Thanks for breaking it down ☺️
How are partnerships different?
@@lalapapa3112 my same question what about partnership vs scorp
@@brandypeay5350 Same difference....you will just claim a your partnership portion of the Net Loss or Net Income
Can you answer this for me please....In S-Corp we save self employment tax but then S-Corp also have to pay tax, then isnt it double taxation because even if S-Corp is a separate entiity we still own it and it has our money. we saving 15.3 to pay 21% in tax?
@@thesinghhh go with c corp if you’re making good money and plan on having employees
6:33 This is partially correct and needs clarification.
LLCs are taxed as Disregarded Entities (similar to Sole Proprietorships but they are not Sole Proprietorships because they are LLCs), partnerships, or Corporations (C-Corp and S-Corp). An LLC can elect to be taxed as a Corporation (a C-Corporation by default), but must invoke a Subchapter S election in order to be taxed as an S-Corp.
Great points made in recommending using a payroll company when operating as an S-Corp. It's a pain to do it yourself. Also, paying yourself a reasonable salary is so important while operating as an S-Corp, which you pointed out so well. So many people underpay themselves so they can avoid paying the SE tax and they get flagged by the IRS.
"Crunch the numbers and see if it's worth your time" this is one of the most important takeaways from the video
This right here - is exactly what I needed! There are so many titles on UA-cam that say they are about S-Corps but when you watch the video they are practically giving no information and instead boosting their own class videos that you have to pay for. To basically a waste of time. Your videos are 1000% worth watching! Tons of information
This video took 95% of my stress away on what decision to make for my cheesecake business. My LLC was approved last week and I wasn’t sure if sole proprietor, S Corp, or C Corp was the right one for me. Very informative video. Straight to the point. SHOWING and not just TALKING about the breakdown of net worth is what made EVERYTHING clearer!! Excellent job Mr. Donnell

I've listened to a host of people sharing about LLC vs S CORP that made me feel I made a mistake starting a business. I've considered surrendering my license to operate feeling I may have made a mistake. Your approach in teaching on the subject has given me some relief for the first time. seeing a realistic perspective how the two business paths work was refreshing. Thank you for sharing your gift of knowledge.

Finally a real dude explaining it in a way that even a 5th grader can understand. Cheers to you Prince! I appreciate you!
Exactly, simple and to the point
Thank you!
I am an accountant and I try to convince my clients with a small net profit not to elect an S Corp.
I will refer your video to them :)
As an artist 👩🎨 this video can help a lot of individuals that don’t understand. I appreciate you king 🤴
Same here. As a visual artist I’m Debating llc vs llc taxed as scorp
I’ve asked a lot of people with businesses about this stuff and they couldn’t explain it. Thank you Sir. You are wonderful.
As a CPA, I really love and appreciate this video. I see so many people who "hear" things without understanding them and then act upon what they heard, which can be expensive.
I am a SO GRATEFUL that I found your channel!! 🙏🏾
Sir … you are the truth. I have been SEARCHING for someone with your energy, knowledge & commitment to honestly help & breakdown these scenarios the way you do. I cannot thank you enough for the time & energy you devote to these videos.
IM WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS FOR THE FIRST TIME AND I LOVE EVERY BIT OF IT... YOU ARE REALLY GOOD WITH TAXES. KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB.. Glad to be part of this family
Thank you for this! I’ve been watching/reading tons of materials on this topic and with just your 37 minutes - I now totally understand the break down.
Niice, best breakdown of SCorp and LLC I've seen so yet! Appreciate this Light Prince Donnell.
Thank You for this Lesson. This has been very helpful!!! My CPA sat with me this weekend and informed me such as you've done here. This video was full confirmation. You broke it down to it's basics. Great info!!!!!
Hey just wanted to say THANK YOU for this stellar breakdown. My head was swimming with internet pros and cons on this topic, and nobody was giving a simple breakdown like this. Super appreciative! Now on to focusing on the business of my business 😁😎
After well over 6 months of wasted time thinking about this, researching so much... you broke this down so concise and to the point, i wish i would have watched it all that time ago and saved myself. Thank you so much for this video. I would love to have your cpa/tax team behind me as we grow! It seems like a very short supply of cpa's who even entertain taking on mew clients in my area. Constant struggle for good help. That's why I'm endlessly thankful for your videos!
Ugh! The simplicity in this breakdown. So clear and concise. Thanks!
Thank you so much for the detailed information with the included examples!!! I’ve heard the same information from other UA-cam pages but you’re the first I’ve found that broke it down into layman’s terms. I now feel confident to move forward with my business. Thanks again!
I want to thank you so so much for publishing this video. I am just starting my business. This brings so much clarity in a simple video. I am glad I was up at 3 a.m. watching you tube videos for inspiration.
This video is great bro. Thanks for helping us
Thanks for this! Especially working out the breaking point. That’s gold
Thank you so much … great way to explain.
Now I understand.
I have S corp for 2 years. Never used because didn’t understand until now.. Now I will!
Thank you!
Thanks for breaking it down! My cpa recommended that I go S Corp & now I have a much better understanding on why. Be blessed young man
Wow, I'm impressed you did that all with no edits! Incredible content, and I learned a lot. Thank you for your time and for giving me clarity 🙏🏾 🙌🏿💪🏾
I'm new to being a business owner, and have been studying up on how to tackle my taxes. The number 1 thing I have learned is that taxes are hands down the worst thing about owning your own business, proving once again that the government ruins everything. Great video, so well broken down!
Government doesnt ruin everything, the US is just a shit place to do business. Propaganda aside, third party research ranks the US very low for business freedom and entrepreneurship. Business or individual, the US really wants to waste your time. The fact that the IRS wants you to file obnoxious tax forms when they already have all of the information they need tells you this. Many other countries automatically or near automatically handle taxes.
...get off the court if you're scared to play the game...victimhood won't get you anywhere in the real world...
@@user-mf4gz3sp1q I said nothing about not playing. Chill, random.😂
@@SuWoopSparrow you disagreed with me and then proved my point. 😂
@@jeremiahbrownlee2299 "The US has a mediocre business environment" and "government ruins everything" are two very different comments. Do you think the US government is the only government in the world? Plenty of governments that streamline the business process and increase business likelihood of success. 😂😂😂
This brother broke it down to the simplest compound. In a few months when i make a lil money. I am definitely going to show him some financial support. He was assiduous in his explanation.
Cheers!
Thank you Sir!
I’m brand new haven’t even started anything yet, just gathering knowledge first.
I enjoyed your passion for learning/teaching/knowledge. It shows by how easy it is to learn from you.
Thank you again and God bless you!!!
You are an amazing Teacher!!! I completely understood everything you said!!! Which when it comes to this stuff it is way over my head!! I even shared your video!!!..I am looking forward to watching and learning from your other videos!! Thank You!!!! You are a Blessing!! ..I bought Nolo books thinking I would understand but you clarified alot clearly!!
I really enjoyed this video because you broke it down in such a simplistic manner that it anyone could understand. I also appreciate your emphasis on obtaining assistance by an attorney or CPA for their expertise instead of trying to handle all of these things on your own. It also was helpful to understand that the people that we employ to help should have a complete understanding of the type of business we have. I truley think that all of the information that you provided will help me excel as an entrepreneur. Thanks sooo much!!!
This is exactly what I need it to heard today. Big s/o to you for the info and laying it down easy enough for me to understand. You have gain my support
Thank you so much for breaking this down in a clear, easy to follow way. Also please thank your mom for making you easy on the eyes !!
I discovered these videos after I opened this account to post info videos for my legal business. These are really well done, and as a lawyer, I see these as really useful information for clients. I'd like to see more videos that break down important concepts that professionals often confuse by trying to show off all the new words they learned in graduate school. We're trying to make our videos straight and to the point on our channel, when it comes to various legal issues.
Great video! I've heard multiple explanations of this from other CPAs but I wasn't grasping the full picture until this video! Thanks for the great content!
You have helped me so much. I was lost, and now im learning. Thank you so much, and "STAY BLESSED"
This is the hands down best explanation on youtube so far. Owned a business for 20 years and had no idea about LLC And these tax brackets. Thank you so much!
Mr. Donnell, this was an excellent video and explanation. I have just finished my first year in business. My tax attorney was advising almost the same exact jump off point of $50-$60K. He did not go through a long explanation like you did but now I understand why and how it works. Greatly appreciate it. Good luck with your business sir!
I’m not even done watching but wanted to stop and say how much I appreciate the value you bring and how you simplify the info! I’m a visual learner so this was sooo helpful!! Thank you!! 💕‼️🙌🏾
Same 💯
I hate Taxes and Numbers; he got me excitingly engaged with his body movement.
Love how only 3 minutes in you answered on of our biggest questions. We have watched a ton of videos but around 03:30 when you explain how this is a JOURNEY, and how you started as as Sole Proprietor, worked up to an LLC, and then to an S Corp...that was our question, was can you start as one and move your way up to another. Very good to know! Thanks for making this video!
THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I'VE EVER SEEN REGARDING LLCs & S-CORP
Omg I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH, I just got my LLC today and of course a ton of “be an S-Corp” videos came up freaking me out. Holy crap, you explained and broke this down so well for me that noooooo ones videos on youtube ever have! I’m so thankful!! Definitely have a new subscriber. 👏🏽🤞🏽

THANK YOU!!!
UA-cam kept recommending this video but it was your “5 bank accounts you need for your llc” that brought me here so I can learn about how an llc is taxed.
I just started my llc and i was”loosing my sanity” lol trying to do everything my self. You tought me it’s not worth my time and definitely not worth the headache.
Love your videos, please keep them coming👏🏽👏🏽 can you do a video on Accounting & book keeping?
This connected the dots in layman’s terms. Some sites are so technical. You broke this down perfectly. THANK YOU! 🙏🏾
Thank you my brother. You cleared it up for me in such a phenomenal way. Thank you for helping me. I shoot music videos and im about to become an LLC. THANK YOU once again. Keep grinding soldier. 👍
I watched a few vids before this 1... I have to say this is the easiest to understand, very well balanced, & advocates for the nuances of each individual/business dictating when that point should be for switching over to S-Corps 👌🏾 great video. #NewSubscriber
I am a CPA and so appreciate you sharing this great advice!! So many jump straight into SCorp and have no idea what they are getting into. I will be sending some new business clients to this video! Great job!
BEST BEST breakdown ive seen. Doesnt pretend to be a guru but gives A+ advice you normally would pay for. Subscribed
I watched this a couple times and I feel better about what I'm getting myself into. I have way better understanding of paying your taxes. Thanks fam🤝🏾

I'm a business consultant and in business for over 26 years. Well done! I'll share this with my business clients.
Great content, Prince Donnell. Let me add something as a CPA, this video is not stressed one important part of business taxation. You being tax based on your NET INCOME for business. In other words, don't forget to take any allowed business expenses or employee benefits according to the law. As an S Corp, you have more options, depending on where you live, on what you deduct for business expenses and employee benefit. Most importantly, as Prince Donnell said, get a consulting or asking a tax professional first before making any important decision, even if you decide not to employ them to file your business return. It is the job of a public accountant to help the public after all.
I learned everything I was looking for in your video. Well explained ☺️.. I made a lot of research none was able to really helped me understand it that way.
Every time you speak, you bring value!
Boom! Prince, this was a powerful presentation full of dynamite information! I was blown away by what I learned in this short, power-packed business education video. I'm now a subscriber and will be receiving ALL notifcations from your channel. Keep those videos coming!

@@Deedzproductionz I believe it's another product/service you can offer that's linked to the one you already do well. Example Your Apple and you started by selling computers. Music is a huge focal point for your customers, so you sell a music streaming service to those customer's. You started as a barber, you then also start making a special blend of hair products catered to your customers needs/wants.
