How to fill out business 1120s:

1. Gather all necessary information and forms before starting the process. This includes your business' financial statements, income and expense records, and any other relevant documentation.
2. Start by completing Part I of Form 1120S, which includes basic information about your business such as its name, address, and employer identification number (EIN).
3. Move on to Part II of the form, where you will need to provide details about the shareholders of the S corporation. This includes their names, addresses, and percentage of ownership in the company.
4. In Part III, report the business' income and expenses for the tax year. This section requires you to calculate the company's gross receipts, cost of goods sold (if applicable), and other deductions.
5. Proceed to Part IV, where you will need to disclose any other income or deductions that are not already covered in Part III. This may include rental income, capital gains, or interest expenses.
6. Complete Part V, which focuses on the business' deductions, exemptions, and credits. Here, you can claim deductions for expenses such as payroll, health insurance premiums, and contributions to retirement plans.
7. In Part VI, calculate the business' total tax liability for the year. This section requires you to determine the amount of tax owed or overpaid based on the income and deductions reported earlier.
8. Provide any additional information required in Schedule B, which includes details about the business' accumulated adjustments account, other adjustments account, and corporate-level tax items.
9. Review the completed form for accuracy and completeness. Make sure all calculations are correct and that you have attached any necessary schedules or supporting documents.
10. Sign and date the form, and keep a copy for your records. File the business 1120S with the appropriate tax authority by the due date, usually March 15th for calendar year S corporations.

Who needs business 1120s:

1. S corporations or electing small business trusts (ESBTs) are required to file Form 1120S to report their income, deductions, and credits.
2. S corporations are a popular choice for small businesses because they offer limited liability protection while avoiding double taxation. As a result, any business that has chosen to be taxed as an S corporation will need to file Form 1120S.
3. It is important to note that certain types of businesses are not eligible for S corporation status, such as financial institutions and insurance companies.
4. Additionally, businesses that have not made the election to be taxed as an S corporation or do not meet the requirements for S corporation status will need to file other business tax forms such as Form 1120 for regular C corporations.
5. Overall, it is crucial for business owners to consult with a tax professional or review the IRS guidelines to determine if they are required to file Form 1120S based on their specific situation and entity structure.
