Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts

When calculating gross weekly amount, my ex is deducting the deductible part of self-employment tax, Schedule SE off her final income to be used. I just finished my taxes and I have a loss, Schedule E that resulted in a deduction in my income as well. Are both of these correct to use for the calculation in the gross weekly amount for child support?
