Answer #1

Income of Margarita is in excess of the limit defined for "Single" (assumed) tax filers of $ 163300.

Therefore th QBI deduction will be the lower of -

  • 20% of QBI.
  • 50% of W-2 wages

(Note since asset details are not avaialble 25% of W-2 wages plus 2.5% of the unadjusted basis of all qualified property portion option ignored)

With ofcoure overall ceiling of 20% of taxable income without the QBI deduction i.e. 20%*175000 = 35000

20% of QBI = 20%*100000 = 20000

50% of W-2 wages = 50%*300000=150000

Lower of the above is 20000 and the same is also below overall limit of 35000.

Margarita QBI deduction therefore is 20000 (option b)
