1- do Form 1065 (Pages 1 - 5), Schedule D (Capital Gains and Losses), any other required forms (there are some), and any supporting schedules necessary (e.g., other deductions).

The first column of calculations in the spreadsheet should be your calculation of book income. The second two columns (a debit column and a credit column) should contain the adjustments needed to reconcile book income to taxable income. These adjustment columns will provide you with the numbers you need to complete Schedule M-1 of Form 1065. The fourth column should be your calculation of taxable income (including both ordinary business income and separately stated items). The fifth and sixth columns should be your calculation of ordinary business income and separately stated items, respectively.
