What is Your Estimated Annual Business Net Income?*
What Salary Will You Pay Yourself if an S-Corporation?
You must pay a reasonable salary via a paycheck. The IRS does not have a clear definition of what a “reasonable salary” is, other than proper compensation for the services provided to the corporation. A good rule of thumb is to look at the “average” salary for the position and pay that as salary, with any excess being paid as a distribution or reinvested into the business. For example, say you are a photographer in Philadelphia expecting to make $60,000 in business net income this year. Per glassdoor.com, the average salary of a photographer in Philadelphia is $33,000. So you would enter $60,000 in as your net income and you could take a salary of $33,000, which would save you $3,429 in taxes.
