The Sole Proprietorship study covers basic data, including business receipts, deductions, and net income reported by an individual taxpayer on Schedule C of Form 1040. The information is for nonfarm sole proprietorships and is broken down by industrial groups for analysis of the data. Information on farms, reported by individual taxpayers on Schedule F of Form 1040, is included in many of the Form 1040 data tables found in Individual Tax Statistics. Featured area: Integrated Business Data: Tables and articles that combine the annual SOI cross-sectional studies of corporation (C and S corporations), partnership, and nonfarm sole proprietorship data.
