Tomas owns a sole proprietorship, and Lucy is the sole shareholder of a C corporation. In the current year, both businesses make a net profit of $60,000. Neither business distributes any funds to the owners in the year. For the current year, Tomas must report $60,000 of income on his individual tax return, but Lucy is not required to report any income from the corporation on her individual tax return.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


True

Rationale: Proprietorship profits flow through to the owner and are reported on the owner's individual income tax return. It does not matter how much of the profit is withdrawn from the proprietorship. Thus, Tomas must report the net profit of $60,000 on his Form 1040 (Schedule C). Shareholders are required to report income from a C corporation only to the extent of dividends received. Consequently, Lucy has no income to report from the corporation for the current year. Tomas is likely eligible for a qualified business income deduction.
