Yes indeed that is the case. I guess such a number doesn't add to capitalist
surplus.

For what it is worth:
Corporate profits + Estimated profit part of proprietors' income
= $767 billion + $84 billion = $851 billion.

This is a crude estimate of the amount of capitalist surplus, but it is
likely in the ballpark.
