Sole Proprietorship Returns, 2012

by Adrian Dungan

F

or Tax Year 2012, taxpayers reported nonfarm sole proprietorship activity on approximately 23.6 million individual

income tax returns, a 0.5-percent increase from 2011. Profits

rose to $304.9 billion in 2012, a 7.9-percent improvement over

the previous year. In constant dollars, total nonfarm sole proprietorship profits increased 6.0 percent in 2012. Profits as a

percent of business receipts rose 1.1-percentage points to 23.4

percent, resulting in the highest level during the 25-year period,

1988 through 2012. All nonfarm sole proprietorship industries

experienced increases in profits for 2012, except the health care

and social assistance sector (down 3.1 percent). The real estate

and rental and leasing sector reported the greatest rise in profits

(up 41.1 percent or $6.2 billion), followed by the construction

sector (up 16.3 percent or $4.7 billion). Compared to all other

sectors, the professional, scientific, and technical services sector

reported the largest profits, increasing 5.7 percent to $76.5 billion, and accounting for about a quarter (25.1 percent) of total

profits. Despite its decrease in profits, the health care and social

assistance sector reported the next largest amount of profits

($49.7 billion), accounting for 16.3 percent of total profits for

2012.

For sole proprietorships as a whole, receipts increased 2.8

percent, while deductions increased 1.4 percent. The retail trade

sector reported the largest shares of total business receipts (14.7

percent) and total business deductions (18.0 percent). The real

estate and rental and leasing sector reported the largest rise in

business receipts, with a 15.9-percent increase. Among all industrial sectors, the finance and insurance sector experienced

the largest downturn in receipts, losing $8.8 billion or 10.6 percent. This sector also reported the largest decrease in deductions,

declining $9.8 billion or 15.0 percent.

Returns and Receipts

Professional, scientific, and technical services made up the largest sector in terms of the number of individual tax returns reporting nonfarm sole proprietorship activity for 2012, followed by

the other services sector, which was mainly comprised of personal and laundry services (Figure A).1 Tax returns filed in the

professional, scientific, and technical service sector remained

at approximately 3.2 million for 2011 and 2012; however, this

sector showed a 0.6-percent decrease between those years in the

number of returns filed. In comparison, other services had the

For 2012, the 23,553,850 nonfarm sole proprietorship returns accounted for an estimated 26,207,024 nonfarm businesses. For purposes of these statistics, if a proprietor owned more than one

business, the Statistics of Income (SOI) Division combined the statistics for each business with those of the proprietor’s dominant business and included them in the industrial group for that

business activity. When this occurred, the sum of net incomes (for businesses reporting a positive net income) reduced by the sum of net deficits (for businesses reporting a deficit) yielded the

profits for a specific industrial group.

Sole Proprietorship Returns, 2012

largest percentage increase among all sectors in the number of

tax returns filed (up 2.9 percent), increasing from 3.0 million

returns for 2011 to over 3.1 million returns for 2012.

Total business receipts (the sum of “income from sales and

operations” and “other business income”) for all nonfarm sole

proprietorship industries increased 2.8 percent, from $1,265.9

billion for 2011 to $1,301.6 billion for 2012.2 The retail trade

sector accounted for the largest share of total business receipts

(14.7 percent) in 2012. Business receipts in this sector increased

0.4 percent between 2011 and 2012, following a 4.5-percent increase between 2010 and 2011.3

The real estate and rental and leasing sector had the largest

percentage gain in business receipts (up 15.9 percent), followed

by the construction sector (up 10.7 percent), which rose from

$170.3 billion for 2011 to $188.5 billion for 2012. The construction sector also experienced the largest dollar increase in

receipts, rising $18.3 billion during the year. In comparison, the

finance and insurance sector showed the largest percentage decrease in business receipts (down 10.6 percent) for 2012.

In terms of constant dollars, total business receipts for 2012

increased 1.0 percent to $1,128.0 billion (Figure B).4 This

increase put total business receipts very close to the $1,121.7

[1] Total business deductions are calculated before subtraction of nonallowable "passive" activity losses and any "passive loss" carryover from prior years. However, these losses (after subtraction) and any carryover are reflected in

net income less deficit. Therefore, total business receipts minus total business deductions may not always equal net income less deficit.

[2] Constant dollars are based on the overall implicit price deflator for gross domestic product computed and reported by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis, in the Survey of Current Business. The

deflator represents the annual average of current-weighted prices, based on 2005 = 100.

Statistics for “business receipts, total” in Table 2 represent the total receipts of the business, mainly gross receipts from sales and operations. Business receipts also include miscellaneous business receipts, such as incidental sales of scrap, shown separately in the statistics as “other business income.” However, business receipts exclude incidental investment income received through

the business. Examples of such incidental investment income are interest, dividends, income or loss from rents or royalties, and capital or ordinary gain or loss from the sale of investment and

business property. Sole proprietors report incidental investment income, in combination with nonbusiness related investment income, as part of their total income on their individual income tax

returns.

Sole proprietors report personal, i.e., nonbusiness, income and expense items apart from business income or loss, which is reported on the attached Schedule C, Profit or Loss From Business

(or, to a lesser extent, on Schedule C-EZ, Net Profit From Business). SOI did not deduct salaries paid to owners as wages paid on Schedule C, nor did it include salaries as wages received on Form

1040. Similarly, sole proprietors deduct charitable contributions made through the business as personal expenses on Schedule A, Itemized Deductions. However, the owner of a sole proprietorship

may choose to deduct any foreign taxes paid as a business expense, unless the owner elects to claim these taxes as a credit against U.S. income tax.

Business deductions include the home office, business deductions. After 1990, home office expenses were calculated separately on Form 8829, Expenses for Business Use of Your Home, and

the deductible portion brought forward to the Schedule C. In some cases, these expenses were limited. Prior to 1990, these expenses were not limited and were included with other expenses,

such as depreciation deductions, utilities, and “other” expenses on Schedule C.

operations) increased 2.9 percent to $607.8 billion for 2012. Car

and truck expenses made up the largest component of business

expenses (14.2 percent), followed by salaries and wages (13.1

percent), rent paid on machinery, equipment, and other business

property (7.1 percent), and contract labor (6.9 percent) (Figure

D). Car and truck expenses increased 3.3 percent to $86.1 billion for the year; salaries and wages increased 2.3 percent to

$79.8 billion.

Historically, constant dollar depreciation increased almost

every year from 1993 through 2004, before declining for 6 out

of the 8 years from 2005 until 2012 (Figure E).7 The increases

in 2003 and 2008 coincided with legislative changes to section

179 of the Internal Revenue Code. These changes substantially

increased the amount of certain investment property that could

be expensed in a given year (rather than depreciated over time).

In 2003, under the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation

Act of 2003, the maximum allowable section 179 deduction

vaulted from $24,000 in 2002 to $100,000 in 2003. This change

led to an 11.6-percent increase in constant dollar depreciation

for 2003, creating the highest growth in depreciation of any year

between 1988 and 2012. However, in subsequent years, declining depreciation followed the initial jump in depreciation. From

2004 through 2007, in constant dollars, depreciation declined

in each year. In 2004, deductions for depreciation decreased

0.1 percent, marking the first drop in 9 years. This downward

trend was even more evident in 2005 as depreciation fell 11.8

percent, followed by a 3.3-percent decrease in 2006 and a

1.3-percent decrease in 2007. During this same 4-year period,

Under section 179 of the Internal Revenue Code, the cost of certain tangible property may be treated as a current expense rather than a capital expenditure subject to depreciation deductions.

The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA93) increased the maximum amount of investment that could immediately be deducted on property placed in service after 1992, from

$10,000 to $17,500. The increase in the constant dollar depreciation deductions for 1993, and subsequent decline in 1995, may be attributed, in part, to this provision of OBRA93. Following the

enactment of this provision, the 179 deduction for all individuals (not just sole proprietors) filing Form 4562, Depreciation and Amortization, increased 32.4 percent to $13.5 billion for 1993.

section 179 limits gradually increased for inflation, finally rising

to $125,000 in 2007.8 In 2008, the section 179 limit doubled

to $250,000, and there was a 2.3-percent increase in constant

dollar depreciation. The $250,000 limit remained for 2009 and

depreciation dropped 17.4 percent, making this the largest decrease since 1988. In 2010, the section 179 limit doubled again

to $500,000 and constant dollar depreciation increased 0.4 percent, from $31.5 billion to $31.6 billion.9 The section 179 limit

remained $500,000 for Tax Years 2011 and 2012. Constant

dollar depreciation declined 0.7 percent and in 2012, it dropped

another 5.5 percent to $29.7 billion, the lowest level over the 25

years of this study.

Beginning with Tax Year 1992, certain smaller businesses

could elect not to itemize depreciation and other business deductions by filing the Schedule C-EZ, Net Profit from Business,

a simplified version of Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business.

(These two schedules are the source of sole proprietorship statistics.) For Tax Year 2012, taxpayers could use Schedule C-EZ if

they: had business expenses of $5,000 or less; used the cash accounting method; had no inventories; did not report a loss from

the business; had only one business as a sole proprietor; had no

employees; were not required to file Form 4562, Depreciation

and Amortization, for the business; claimed no deduction for

home business expenses; and had no prior-year disallowed

Under the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003, the maximum amount of the section 179 deduction increased from $24,000 for 2002 to $100,000 for 2003, $102,000 for 2004,

$105,000 for 2005, and $108,000 for 2006. The Small Business and Work Opportunity Tax Act of 2007 further expanded this to $125,000 for 2007 (PL 110-28). The Jobs Creation and Worker

Assistance Act of 2002 introduced 30-percent bonus depreciation and the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 increased the bonus percentage to 50 percent, for property

placed in service by January 1, 2005. While bonus depreciation was available to sole proprietors, it was generally not as advantageous as immediate expensing and, therefore, likely had less

effect on their depreciation deductions.

9

For 2008, the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 increased the maximum expensing deduction under section 179 to $250,000. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 extended

that level through 2009. For all individual tax returns that filed Form 4562, Depreciation and Amortization, the Section 179 property deducted as an expense increased by 5.1 percent to $49.8

billion for 2008. For 2009, when the maximum 179 deduction remained at $250,000, the amount deducted for all returns decreased by 17.2 percent to $41.3 billion. The amount deducted as

section 179 property on returns that had a Schedule C dropped 19.6 percent to $16.2 billion between 2008 and 2009. For 2010, the amount taxpayers were able to deduct as section 179 property

increased to $500,000. This was in accordance with the Small Business Jobs and Credit Act of 2010. The amount deducted by returns with a Schedule C increased to $18.8 billion, representing a

15.6-percent increase from 2009. For 2010, the amount deducted on all individual returns increased to $49.6 billion, a 20.3-percent increase from 2009. These numbers do not reflect depreciation

solely deducted on the Schedule C, as this could also include depreciation taken on the Schedule E, Supplemental Income and Loss, the Schedule F, Profit or Loss from Farming, and the Form

4835, Farm Rental Income and Expenses.

passive activity losses from the business. Since taxpayers using

Schedule C-EZ do not itemize business deductions, the detailed

deductions in Table 2 are slightly understated and do not add to

the totals.

For Tax Year 2012, approximately 4.7 million taxpayers filed

nonfarm sole proprietorship returns (Schedule C-EZ), marking

a 2.1-percent increase from the number filed for 2011 (Figure

F). For 2012, the administrative and support sector accounted

for the largest number of Schedule C-EZ returns (0.8 million),

representing 30.1 percent of the total sole proprietorship returns

for the sector.10 Business receipts reported on Schedule C-EZ

totaled $38.8 billion, or 3.0 percent of total business receipts

reported. Business deductions accounted for only 0.4 percent of

total business deductions for all industries, or $4.3 billion of the

total $997.6 billion. Despite having the largest concentration of

Schedule C-EZ filers, receipts and deductions reported by the

administrative and support services sector accounted for only

8.6 percent of that sector’s business receipts and 1.4 percent of

its total business deductions.

increased 7.9 percent from $282.6 billion in 2011 to $304.9 billion in 2012. The professional, scientific, and technical services

sector reported the largest percentage of total profits of all nonfarm sole proprietorships (25.1 percent), and had a 5.7-percent

increase in profits for 2012. Of all the principal industrial sectors, only the health care and social assistance sector reported

a decline in profits, dropping 3.1 percent to $49.7 billion. The

real estate and rental and leasing sector realized the largest percentage increase in profits, rising 41.1 percent for a gain of $6.2

billion, followed by the construction industry (up 16.3 percent),

wholesale trade (up 13.3 percent), and transportation and warehousing (up 10.9 percent).

In constant dollars, total profits rose 6.0 percent for 2012,

marking the third year in a row that profits increased in real

terms, following 4 consecutive years of decreases (Figure B).

In general, as a percentage of business receipts, net income less

deficit has increased over time from a low of 18.8 percent for

1988 (Figure I). Profits as a percentage of business receipts have

remained between 20.7 percent and 22.1 percent since 1992,

peaking in 2005. However, this trend was broken in 2008, when

the percentage dropped to 20.1 percent, only to come back into

the range in 2009 when it increased to 20.8 percent. In 2010,

profits as a percent of business receipts rose 1.6 percent to 22.4

percent, exceeding the previous high. For 2011, the percentage

dropped slightly to the second-highest level ever, dropping 0.1

percent to 22.3 percent. In 2012, the percentage of net income

less deficit to total business receipts rose to its highest level in

the 25 years covered by this article, jumping 1.1 percent up to

23.4 percent. For 2012, in constant dollars, net income increased

(up 4.1 percent) and net deficit decreased for the third straight

year (down 5.7 percent). From 1999 through 2009, net deficits

increased every year.

The professional, scientific, and technical services sector

again (as it had in 2011) had the largest percentage of sole proprietorship profits (25.1 percent) for 2012. Despite profits falling to $49.7 billion for 2012, the health care and social assistance sector reported the second largest profits for the year. This

marked a 3.1-percent decrease from 2011 levels and represented

16.3 percent of all sole proprietorship profits. These sectors were

followed by construction (11.1 percent), other services (8.7 percent), and administrative and support services (7.2 percent) in

terms of overall share of sole proprietor profits.

Tax Year 2001 is the first year in which data became available on the number of limited liability companies (LLCs) among

nonfarm sole proprietorship returns. LLC entities have limited

liability (like corporations), but may be taxed as sole proprietorships (for which income and expenses flow through to the owner

to be taxed), if they are owned by a single, individual member.

In 2001, approximately 126,000 sole proprietorship returns indicated a status as an LLC, just 0.7 percent of total sole proprietorship returns (Figure K). In contrast, for Tax Year 2012,

the number of these sole proprietorships rose to approximately

1,324,000 and accounted for 5.6 percent of the total nonfarm

sole proprietorship returns, a more than tenfold increase since

2001. The increase in the number of LLC returns has resulted

Industries

In 2012, the majority of industries reported an increase in total

business receipts. Using receipts as a measure of business size,

retail trade was the largest sole proprietorship industrial sector

for 2012, with 14.7 percent of all business receipts (Figures A

and J). Total receipts reported for this sector were 0.4 percent

higher for 2012 ($190.9 billion), than for 2011 ($190.1 billion).

Deductions also rose 0.1 percent for this sector to $179.7 billion

for the year. These modest percentage increases in total receipts

and total deductions led to increased profits in the retail sector

as they rose 6.3 percent (Figure G). In terms of receipts, the construction sector was the second largest industrial sector for 2012,

reporting 14.5 percent of all business receipts and a 10.7-percent

growth in receipts. The finance and insurance industry reported

the largest decrease in business receipts (down 10.6 percent),

falling from $83.3 billion in 2011 to $74.5 billion in 2012.

assistance sector was the only principal sector to experience a

drop in profits, losing $1.6 billion.

For all sole proprietorships, receipts increased 2.8 percent,

while deductions increased 1.4 percent. The largest sole proprietorship industrial sector, based on business receipts, was the

retail trade sector, accounting for 14.7 percent of all receipts.

Real estate and rental and leasing had the largest increase in receipts at 15.9 percent. The finance and insurance sector experienced the largest downturn in receipts from 2011 to 2012, losing

$8.8 billion. While deductions increased for all sole proprietorships, the construction sector reported the largest increase in deductions at 9.6 percent.

Summary

Profits for the 23.6 million returns with sole proprietorship activity for Tax Year 2012 increased 7.9 percent during 2011, reaching $304.9 billion. In constant dollars, total nonfarm sole proprietorship profits increased 6.0 percent, following a 3.4-percent

increase between 2010 and 2011. The professional, scientific,

and technical services sector reported the largest profits of any

sector ($76.5 billion or 25.1 percent of total sole proprietorship

profits), followed by the health care and social assistance sector

($49.7 billion or 16.3 percent of total profits). In comparison,

the real estate and rental and leasing sector (up 41.1 percent)

and the construction sector (up 16.3 percent) reported the largest percentage increases in profits. The health care and social

The difference between the number of returns in the population and the total number of returns in Tables 1 and 2 is mainly due to returns in which Schedule C income was moved to other

income or wages to avoid double counting of taxpayers for Gross Domestic Product calculations. In addition, data from amended returns and tentative returns are not reflected in these statistics.
