You can offset these K-1 losses against any or all of your Earned Income such as Wages, Schedule C Net income, or any Unearned income such as Dividend or Interest income and Capital Gains.

Remember that your losses from the K-1 are only deductible to the extent of your basis. Hence, you should have basis in order for these K-1 losses to be deductible against your taxable income.

Re: Income

However, for households and individuals, "income is the sum of all the wages, salaries, profits, interests payments, rents and other forms of earnings received... in a given period of time." For firms, income generally refers to net-profit: what remains of revenue after expenses have been subtracted. In the field of public economics, it may refer to the accumulation of both monetary and non-monetary consumption ability, the former being used as a proxy for total income.
