For C Corporations, New Jersey follows federal rules. For S Corporations, 100 percent of meals and entertainment are deductible. The amount allowed for federal purposes are included on Schedule A - Computation of Entire Net Income. The remaining amount is included as a subtraction on Schedule K, Part II, New Jersey S Corporation Income (Loss).

Note: The IRS no longer permits a deduction for entertainment and New Jersey follows this disallowance.
