    A. Qualified Business Income (QBI) : - This is the Net income earned over and above the expenses. This is the business profit which is being earned over an accounting period. To calculate the QBI following are not considered

    1. Interest Income 2. Income Earned Outside USA 3. Capital gain or Losses 4. Dividends and 5. Certain payments made to partners and Shareholders.

    B. Qualified Business Income Deduction: - To calculate the QBI deduction the certain income limits have been defined. The QBI deduction is available at the rate of 20% of the QBI to the self employed and small business owners.

    Single Filer - The limit in 2020 is $ 1,63,300 as Total Income

    Joint filers - The Limit in 2020 is $ 3,26,600 as Total Income.

    Since Haley does not qualify the Single Filer Limit as mentioned above, his QBI deduction is 0 (Zero).
