A partnership operates a business,it is not an investment
company. It borrows money at a variable rate which it
converts to a fixed rate by the use of derivatives.
It reports an amount of interest income and an offsetting
amount of investment interest expense (which is subject to
limitations on deduction by the partners).
The variable interest is simply deducted in computing
ordinary taxable income and is not separately stated on the
K-1.
Does this seem right?
