You have a 25% interest in a Limited Partnership which produces $600,000 in total profits this year. You are in the 40% tax bracket (combined federal and state). Tax on your share of the profits will be:

a) 40% x ¼ (your share) of 600,000 = 60,000 b) 40% x ¼ of 360,000 (because the partnership pays tax of 40% on its profits so you receive only your share of the remaining amount) = 36,000 c) 25% x ¼ (your share) of 600,000 = 37,500 d) 40% x ¼ (your share) of 600,000 x 2 (because of double taxation) = 120,000
