Terms of Use: The financial information on this page is intended for research and educational purposes only. As a condition of using this website you agree to be solely responsible for the outcome of any decisions you make.

The numbers below are estimates based on IRS Schedule C (Form 1040) filings from 2007, the most recent year available at the time this page was published. Schedule C is used to report income or loss from a business operated or a profession practiced as a sole proprietor. An activity qualifies as a business if the primary purpose for engaging in the activity is for income or profit and an individual is actively and regularly involved in the business. A sporadic activity or a hobby does not qualify as a business and numbers from such activities are not included in this data. Many but not all Schedule C filers are self employed individuals or operate home based businesses.
