Regulation 1997-4 - Comprehensive Individual Income Tax Regulations
Rule 26-51-405 - PARTNERSHIP INCOME
Partnership income must be allocated to the state where it was actually earned All partnership income from activities carried on within Arkansas shall be allocated to Arkansas. For example, a partnership comprised of two (2) partners earned $100,000.00 during the tax year. One partner resides in Arkansas and the other in Louisiana. $30,000.00 of the partnership's income is allocable to activity carried on in Arkansas by, or on behalf of, the partnership. Each partner's distributive share of the partnership's income is 50%. Therefore, the Arkansas based partner would report $15,000.00 in gross income on his resident Arkansas individual income tax return and the Louisiana based partner would report $15,00.00 in gross income on his nonresident Arkansas individual income tax return.
Because a portion of the partnership's income was allocable to Arkansas, the partners will need to file a partnership tax return (AR1050) with the State of Arkansas.
