•	Sweet Spot. For an S Corporation, visually determine the optimal balance of Qualified Business Income vs. W-2 Wages paid to a shareholder in order to maximize the §199A deduction.
•	Phaseout. Reduce your learning curve from 30-40 hours to 2-3 hours by playing with this visual tool. Understand quickly how these calculations (with many moving parts) behave in the complicated worlds of Zone 2 (“Twilight Zone”) and Zone 3 (“No Zone”).
•	Super Charged Deduction. Learn visually how a taxpayer who contributes $100K, for example, to a qualified retirement plan or to charity can “supercharge” this contribution into a $163K deduction.
•	Click on any of the 54 examples included in the Keebler/Melcher “Qualified Business Income Deduction” handbook. This will populate Estate Planning Tools with the numbers from those examples, and allow you to run instantaneous what-if variations. Seventeen of these examples are also contained in the Final Regulations for Section §199A released by the IRS on 1/20/2019.
Seven New Calculations! Increases the calculation count from 106 to 113!
•	General. This screen calculates the §199A Deduction for Specified Services Trades and Businesses ("SSTB") and non-Specified Services Trades and Businesses ("non-SSTB").
•	>1 Entity. This screen calculates the §199A Deduction for taxpayers who own an interest in one or more Relevant Pass through Entities. It allows you to aggregate RPEs that are eligible for aggregation, run the calculations on the non-aggregated RPEs separately, then view the combined result for all RPEs. You can run "what-if" scenarios with various combinations of aggregation and non-aggregation to get the best possible tax result.
•	Estate/Trust. This screen handles the calculations for Estates and Non-Grantor Trusts, which can serve in two roles: (a) owner of an interest in one or more RPEs ("Taxpayer"), and (b) "Relevant Pass through Entity" itself that distributes income to one or more beneficiaries, all of whom serve in a "Taxpayer" role based on their “ownership" interest in the Estate or Non-Grantor Trust.
•	Super Charged Deduction. This screen calculates the extra §199A Deduction that may be gained by Zone 2 and Zone 3 taxpayers who make contributions to a qualified retirement plan (or to charity).
•	C Corporation vs. S Corporation. This screen shows how S Corporation shareholders may be eligible for a §199A deduction if they meet the applicable tests and compares that to the tax burden of owning shares in a C Corporation.
•	W-2 Wage Employee vs. 1099 Independent Contractor. This screen calculates the tax for a taxpayer serving a business in one of two capacities: (1) W-2 Wage Employee vs. (2) 1099 Independent Contractor ("IC"). The resulting tax is a combination of federal and (self-) employment taxes (state taxes are ignored).
•	Farms. This screen calculates the §199A Deduction for farmer-patrons of a specified agricultural or horticultural "cooperative". The calculation involves a series of adjustments that may result in a §199A Deduction that is effectively either greater than or less than the flat 20% available to farmer-patrons of a "non-cooperative" marketing firm.
