Michael Rodriguez and Devontae Johnson have been life-long friends. Both Michael and Devontae started to work for the same national plumbing repair company immediately after graduating from technical college. After nearly a decade of working for that same company, Michael and Devontae decided to venture out on their own and form their own plumbing company called AAA Fast Plumbing Repair (AAA). They formed AAA as a limited liability company (LLC). Michael and Devontae each own 50% of the company. The company has been successful primarily based upon reputation and the fact that AAA is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Although AAA charges a premium for after normal business hour calls, most of its competitors will not perform services past 9 p.m. and, as a result, AAA finds itself often as one of the only available choices for middle of the night emergencies.
AAA has several employees and, as a result of implementing technology solutions to aid in its call dispatch program, AAA has been able to expand its service area to now include a three-county area instead of just one.
Information relating to AAA and its owners is as follows:

No. 49842K (iv) Maximum Percentage Owned in Profit, Loss, or Capital Schedule B-1 (Form 1065) (Rev. 12-2011) Page 2 Schedule B-1 (Form 1065) (Rev. 12-2011) General Instructions Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted. Purpose of Form Use Schedule B-1 (Form 1065) to provide the information applicable to certain entities, individuals, and estates that own, directly or indirectly, an interest of 50% or more in the profit, loss, or capital of the partnership. Who Must File Schedule B-1 (Form 1065) must be filed by all partnerships that answer \"Yes\" to question 3a or question 3b on Schedule B of Form 1065. Attach Schedule B-1 to Form 1065. Specific Instructions Part I Complete Part I if the partnership answered \"Yes\" to Form 1065, Schedule B, question 3a. List each corporation, partnership, trust, tax-exempt organization, or foreign government owning, directly or indirectly, an interest of 50% or more in the profit, loss, or capital of the partnership at the end of the tax year. Enter the name, EIN, type of entity (corporation, partnership, trust, tax-exempt organization, or foreign government), country of organization, and the maximum percentage interests owned, directly or indirectly, in the profit, loss, or capital of the partnership. For an affiliated group filing a consolidated tax return, list the parent corporation rather than the subsidiary members. List the entity owner of a disregarded entity rather than the disregarded entity. If the owner of a disregarded entity is an individual rather than an entity, list the individual in Part II. In the case of a tax-exempt organization, enter \"tax-exempt organization\" in column (iii). Example 1. Corporation A owns, directly, an interest of 50% in the profit, loss, or capital of Partnership B. Corporation A also owns, directly, an interest of 15% in the profit, loss, or capital of Partnership C. Partnership B owns, directly, an interest of 70% in the profit, loss, or capital of Partnership C. Therefore, Corporation A owns, directly or indirectly, an interest of 50% in the profit, loss, or capital of Partnership C (15% directly and 35% indirectly through Partnership B). On Partnership C's Form 1065, it must answer \"Yes\" to question 3a of Schedule B. Partnership C must also complete Part I of Schedule B-1. In Part I, Partnership C must identify Corporation A, which includes entering \"50%\" in column (v) (its maximum percentage owned). It also must identify Partnership B, and enter \"70%\" in column (v). Part II Complete Part II if the partnership answered \"Yes\" to Form 1065, Schedule B, question 3b. List each individual or estate owning, directly or indirectly, an interest of 50% or more in the profit, loss, or capital of the partnership at the end of the tax year. Enter the name, social security or employer identification number, country of citizenship (for an estate, the citizenship of the decedent), and the maximum percentage interests owned, directly or indirectly, in the profit, loss, or capital of the partnership. Example 2. A owns, directly, 50% of the profit, loss, or capital of Partnership X. B, the daughter of A, does not own, directly, any interest in X and does not own, indirectly, any interest in X through any entity (corporation, partnership, trust, or estate). Because family attribution rules apply only when an individual (in this example, B) owns a direct interest in the partnership or an indirect interest through another entity, A's interest in Partnership X is not attributable to B. On Partnership X's Form 1065, it must answer \"Yes\" to question 3b of Schedule B. Partnership X must also complete Part II of Schedule B-1. In Part II, Partnership X must identify A, which includes entering \"50%\" in column (iv). Partnership X will not identify B in Part II.
