Bro this guy covered everything😂 So basically if you are making serious cash..(70,000+) (LLC-S Corp) Tax status is obviously the better choice, EASILY. Yes the monotony of bureaucracy, learning time and the bs IRS tries to get you to do is scary but not as much as Taxing more of your hard earned cash. 😂. Thank you guys👍👍👍
thank you so much for your video!! We just turned into an s-corp last year and your video was exactly what I needed. Still feeling very overwhelmed with accounting specs but your video helped so much. It's been really hard to find a trustworthy and reputable accountant. If you have any suggestions for how to find one please share your thoughts.
I didn't catch the calc on the self-empl tax comparison: LLC: $150,000 income - $23,000 (15.3% tax) = $127,000 → after-tax net income, all yours! S-Corp: $150,000 income - $60,000 (salary) = $90,000 → not yet available for you, it's still subject to federal income tax and potentially state income tax. Out of those 60K you get $50,820 net. So, what did you save?
My CPA says I can pay myself more than $50,000 a year thru the S Corp...is this true? I've heard/read from different outlets that the maximum is $50,000. So I am confused. I am in California.
There’s no cap to how much you can pay yourself as an S-Corp. the law says “pay yourself a reasonable amount as an employee” which means if your company makes 300k a year profit, paying yourself 20k/year is not reasonable.
I like that you spend time on the disadvantages. An S corp is appealing to my wife and I because we are a service llc and the earning vary significantly year to year. We’d like to be able to even out that variability and utilize deferred compensation in order to retire sooner. One big question is how you convert that 1st year. Does it have to be on Jan 1st so you immediately start paying salary and taxes or can you convert mid year and do a catch up payment.
What about the other half of social security and Medicare taxes. What about the QBI? What about the 50% self employment tax deduction How does that all truly affect the benefits
If we a family of five , form a C corp , and we parents want to keep anonymity of our stakes in C corp , and want to apply for SSI benefits ( not eligible for Medicare and social security , as we came as legal residents in our late sixties ) , will that be possible ?
hellow, if I sell a parcel of land, in 2024 no house on it just vacant land for a profit on what I paid for it, can I report it in April of 2024 to use for 2023 up coming taxes?.
I am going to choose to be a SMLLC taxed as an S-Corp next year. Where do I send my quarterly fed and state withholdings each quarter when paying myself a reasonable salary?
You should look into the *Profit First* system. That's what I will use when I start my business. I want to use an accountant who uses it bcus it's the best way to go to ensure you're totally IRS compliant. A business owner on TH-cam *Torrence Hart* really explains it best on how she uses it.

Really glad for this channel because I just filed for my LLC and I'm building an airplane while in flight.

Beautifully laid out/explained
How many persons have an LLC and EIN that has never been funded yet!
Very informative. Thank you
Thanx for explaining the pros, cons, and the differences between an LLC and an S corp.
Great video, clear and simple way of making the information more digestible for non tax experts 😂 very educational thanks
My brain hurts!!! But this is awesome

If you have an LLC that hasn't elected to be an S-corp, but you have employees don't you also need payroll services?
I would think so
What about the other half of social security and Medicare taxes.
What about the QBI?
What about the 50% self employment tax deduction
How does that all truly affect the benefits
Most small business do not understand that you mean net profit as the income you’re talking about.
Im glad ill got LLC
Thank you

Thank you ❤
