U/s 73, speculation losses can be adjusted only against speculation gains. If there is no speculation gain, loss will be carried forward for following four A.Y.
For computing remuneration allowable we compute book profit which is actually taxable income before deducting allowable remuneration. Hence, here firm's book profit comes to Rs. 2,00,000/- (assuming no remuneration is deducted) on which remuneration allowable is Rs. 1,32,500/-. Pls verify other conditions like continuity of loss making business etc.

IF IT IS A PARTNERSHIP FIRM,AND WHEN THE FIRM IS TAXED ,THE SHARE OF PROFITS WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN PARTNER'S INCOME AGAIN. IF THE FIRM PAYS TAX ON RS 200000/ BOOK PROFIT,(RS 4 LAKHS NON SPEC,.PROFIT MINUS NON SPEC.LOSS OF RS. 2 LAKHS) THEN PARTNERS WONT GET TAXED AGAIN. REMUNERATION ALLOWED(SEC 184 OF IT ACT) ON BOOK PROFITS ON FIRST RS.75000 (90%)= RS.67500 ON NEXT RS.75000(60%) = RS.45000 ON BALANCE RS 50000(40%) = RS.20000 ----------- TOTAL RS.132500 ----------- SPEC.LOSS CAN BE CARRIED FORWARD FOR 4 YEARS,UNLESS IT IS SET OFF AGAINST SPEC.PROFITS.
