How am I taxed on Profit Distributions?

Dilemma...

 

I have an S-corp. For the majority of 2017, I paid myself outside of payroll ($5K was paid to me thru payroll and $20K were just 'owner withdrawals' - my acc'tant said they must be recorded as "profit distributions").

 

So, for 2017, I've been left with the following #s:

  • S-Corp profit: $10K
  • (personal) W2: $5K
  • (personal) profit distribution ("earnings"?): $20K

 

Exactly what will I be paying income taxes on?

  • $30K? (S-Corp flow-thru, W2, & profit distribution)
  • or $10K (S-corp flow-thru) and I pay a different kind of tax rate on the $20K of profit distributions?
