[1] The small business tax rate applies on the first $500,000 of taxable income for corporations that meet certain criteria.

[2] If a small business corporation earns more than $50,000 in annual income from passive investments, it will start to lose access to the Small Business Deduction (SBD). For every dollar of investment income above $50,000, the SBD will be reduced by $5, and will totally disappear if the business has $150,000 or more in annual passive investment income. This means that the business would pay the regular federal corporate tax rate of 15% on its active business income. (This is only a basic summary of the rules associated with passive investment income.)
