What are the limits on fringe benefits for pass-through entity owners?

Description

Abstract: S corporations, partnerships and limited liability companies (LLCs) that are treated as partnerships for tax purposes qualify for “pass-through” taxation. This treatment generally offers an advantage over C corporations, except when it comes to fringe benefits provided to owners. This article explains how fringe benefits for pass-through entity owners may be treated differently from those provided for regular employees and C corporation shareholder-employees.
