On Schedule K-1, Item L, Analysis of partner's capital accounts, taxable/deductible items are included with current year net income and non-taxable/non-deductible items included with other increases and decreases.  An option to include the non-taxable/non-deductible items with current year increases/decreases income has been discussed.  The accounting theory is that the other increases and decreases would perfectly match the Schedule M-2 items. 

To move the non-deductible expenses from Current Year Net income to Other Increase (Decrease), do the following:

1. Go to Federal Interview Form K-3 - Other Schedule K Items and Schedules M-1 and M-2 Adjustments.
   • Enter the Nondeductible Expenses:

     • In Box 32 - Description, enter a description.
     • In Box 33 - Amount, enter the amount. 
   • Enter the M-2 Adjustment:
