Partnership Income Allocation Mark and George Cooper are brothers with extensive experience in practicing law. Until recently, they have each worked for separate firms in the Regina region. After years of urging from their mother, they have concluded that they could significantly improve their incomes and the quality of their client base if they work together in a partnership arrangement. As a result, as of January 1, 2018, they begin practicing law for the Cooper & Cooper Partnership. Mark will be entitled to a salary of $60,000 per year, while George's salary will be $40,000. In addition, George will receive interest at 5 percent on his average capital balance for the year. The salary and interest amounts are withdrawn by the partners during the year. Due to large rental loss carry forwards that each brother is claiming, neither partner has Taxable Income that will be taxed federally at 33 percent in 2018. Subsequent to the priority allocations for salaries and interest, any residual Net Business Income will be allocated 65 percent to Mark and 35 percent to George. Capital Gains As George has contributed the majority of the partnership initial capital, he will be entitled to all capital gains that are recognized by the partnership. Dividends Any dividends received by the partnership will be split equally between the two partners.
