question 71

Essay

The partners agreed to this, as Jim was receiving only a profits interest and not a capital interest in the partnership. Jim's usual fee for this type of service would be approximately $5,000. What tax issues should Jim and the PDQ Partnership consider with respect to the payment made for the services?
