Hey there! Great question. The "pass-through" part can be confusing. Here's the gist: Those forms (1120S, 1065, 1041) are filed by the business or trust, but they usually don't pay the tax. Instead, the income and losses "pass through" to the owners' personal tax returns. The owners then pay the tax on their individual 1040s. The business gives each owner a K-1 form showing their share of profits or losses. This way, the income is only taxed once, at the individual level. Hope that clears things up!

@@examprepai Thank you for the reply. But at the end of the 1120s, 1065, 1041 forms, there is a column to pay tax. I'll look into the forms again. Thank you.

@@LA2JERSEY Ah, I see what you're referring to. You're right, there are lines for tax on those forms. 1120S (S-Corps): The tax line is usually for special cases, like built-in gains tax. Most S-Corps won't pay tax here. 1065 (Partnerships): Similar story. The tax line is for rare situations, not regular income tax. 1041 (Trusts/Estates): This one's a bit different. Some trusts do pay tax at the entity level, but a lot still passes through to beneficiaries. In all cases, the main business income usually passes through to owners/beneficiaries. Those tax lines are for specific situations, not the regular business income. Good eye for detail! Let us know if you have any other questions.
