The QBI for Each Business Is Subject to the Greater

question 33

Multiple Choice

The QBI for each business is subject to the greater of two limitations: (1) 50% of W-2 wages ($20,000, or $40,000 x 50%) or (2) 25% of W-2 wages plus 2.5% of unadjusted basis {$40,000, or [($40,000 x 25%) = $10,000 + ($1.2 million x 2.5%) = $30,000]}. The greater of the two limitations is $40,000. Because this $40,000 is less than Patricia's tentative $50,000 QBI, the lower amount must be used. Patricia's QBI for this trade or business, then, is $40,000.
