LLC vs. S-Corp: Comparing Taxes, Costs, and Administrative Work

Use this worksheet alongside the guide. The figures and schedules are educational illustrations, not individualized tax advice or a recommendation for your circumstances.

Work through your records

Read the explanation in the guide before filling in the schedule. Keep the illustrated values separate from your actual records. For each row, identify the supporting document, applicable period, unresolved assumption, and person responsible. Do not treat example percentages or classifications as established facts for your situation.

Input	Why it matters	Your records / questions
Sustainable business profit	A one-time strong month may not support ongoing cost
Owner duties and compensation	Salary must reflect actual services
Other wages	Employment-tax interactions can change the result
State and local taxes	Entity-level costs and elections vary
Administration	Payroll, separate returns and bookkeeping require work
