Charles AkinThank you. I suppose the 1120S and K1 will not be affected, and the changes will be seen on the 1040 where we enter the K1 or “pass-through” income.

RockyDr Dahle,
My research on this topic has led me to the opposite conclusion than what is stated above, at least for those filing as single. It seems many ER docs will actually see higher taxes in 2018.
Overall, comparing the 2017 and 2018 tax brackets side by side the only losers are those making between $200-400K, specifically for those filing as single. It seems those in the approximately $200-400K AGI bracket previously enjoyed a 33% maximum tax rate, but now bump up to 35% for all dollars earned over $200K. And this is interesting in that most physicians fall into this particular income range.
Is my interpretation correct? What am I missing?
Here is an article from Business Insider that has the 2017 and 2018 brackets side by side:
