Code Ann. §§ 67-4‑2010 and 67‑4‑2110. The burden is on the taxpayer to show that the taxpayer has the right to apportion. If all earnings are business earnings as defined below, do not complete this schedule. Any nonbusiness earnings, less related expenses, are subject to direct allocation and should be reported in this schedule. "Business Earnings" - 1) earnings arising from transactions and activity in the regular course of the taxpayer’s trade or business, or 2) earnings from tangible and intangible property if the acquisition, use, management, or disposition of the property constitutes an integral part of the taxpayer’s regular trade or business operations. Earnings which arise from the conduct of the trade or trades or business operations of a taxpayer are business earnings, and the taxpayer must show by clear and cogent evidence that particular earnings are classifiable as nonbusiness earnings. A taxpayer may have more than one regular trade or business in determining whether income is business earnings. "Nonbusiness Earnings" - all earnings other than business earnings Description of Nonbusiness Earnings (If further description is necessary, see below) Gross Amounts *Less Related Expenses Net Amounts Net Amounts Allocated Directly to Tennessee 1. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 3. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 5. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 6. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 7. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 8. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Total nonbusiness earnings (Enter here and on Schedule J, Line 22) 9. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nonbusiness earnings allocated directly (Enter here and on Schedule J, Line 34) If necessary, describe source of nonbusiness earnings and explain why such earnings do not constitute business earnings as defined above. Enumerate these items to correspond with items listed above. *As a general rule, the allowable deductions for expenses of a taxpayer are related to both business and nonbusiness earnings. Items such as administrative costs, taxes, insurance, repairs, maintenance, and depreciation are to be considered. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, it is assumed that the expenses related to nonbusiness rental earnings will be an amount equal to 50% of such earnings and that expenses related to other nonbusiness earnings will be an amount equal to 5% of such earnings (see Tenn.

About the Corporate Income Tax
The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.
Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).
Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
