Answer: $30,000.

Explanation: Thad's has a "specified services" business. As his taxable income before the QBI

deduction is more than $187,500 (but less than $207,500), he will receive a partial QBI deduction. Given the W-2 wages he reports, his QBI deduction will not be limited by the W-2 wages/capital investment limitation (50% of his W-2 wages is $62,500; this amount will exceed the other QBI deduction computations).
