Answer :- LINE 11 (As required in question)

Business income limitation. Enter the smaller of business income (not less than zero) or line 5 (see instructions)  

It is $1,020,000 because as instructions (Line 5 : Dollar limitation for tax year. Subtract line 4 from line 1. If zero or less, enter -0-. )

and Line 5 : Dollar limitation for tax year would be $1,020,000 because subtract line 4 from line 1.

Line 1 is $1,020,000 and Line 4 : (Reduction in limitation. Subtract line 3 from line 2. If zero or less, enter -0) is $0

then subtracting Line 4 from Line 1 = $1,020,000

{ For Clarification

Line 1 - Maximum amount (see instructions) = $1,020,000

Line 4 : Reduction in limitation. Subtract line 3 from line 2. If zero or less, enter -0 = $0

Line 5 : Dollar limitation for tax year would be $1,020,000 because subtract line 4 from line 1. = $1,020,000

Line 11 :Business income limitation. Enter the smaller of business income (not less than zero) or line 5 (see instructions) = $1,020,000 }
