Your profit = LLC profit × your ownership percent. Federal tax is the sole-proprietor tax on that profit.
How an LLC is taxed by default
A single-member LLC is disregarded. The whole profit goes on Schedule C and Schedule SE. A multi-member LLC is a partnership by default. Each owner is taxed on the share of ordinary income, which for a working member is usually self-employment income. Type 100 if you own the whole company.
The tax is the same engine as the 1099 calculator, with simplified QBI on. It does not apply guaranteed-payment rules, special allocations, or a state LLC annual fee. An S corp election is a different return. The S corp page compares that election.

Common questions
Does an LLC pay its own federal income tax?
Not by default. A single-member LLC reports on the owner's return. A multi-member LLC files a partnership return and the owners pay the tax. A C corp election would put tax on the company. This page does not compute that election.
Is every partner's share self-employment income?
A member who works in the business generally pays self-employment tax on the ordinary share. A limited partner has a narrower rule. This page treats the share you type as self-employment income. Change the assumption with a tax adviser if you are only an investor.
Where is the state LLC fee?
It is not here. Some states charge a flat fee or a gross-receipts tax even when they have no income tax. Add that bill on top of the federal figure. No state amount is stored in the rate file.
