Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether salaries and commissions paid to partners are considered business expenses. While both are generally treated as expenses, their deductibility for income tax purposes is subject to specific provisions. The conversation also touches upon profit appropriation, which, although an 'below the line' item, can be allowed as an expense up to certain limits.

Yes both commission and salary to a partner are expense for the business. However allow-ability of such expense in Income Tax will depend on its provisions.
