A sole proprietorship is the simplest form of business ownership, with the owner acting as the sole trader and responsible for all financial and legal obligations.
A sole proprietorship is formed when one person establishes a business without forming a separate legal entity. As the sole owner, the owner personally guarantees all debts and obligations of the business.
The business income and losses are reported on the owner's personal income tax return. The owner is personally liable for all debts and obligations of the business, including taxes and debts to suppliers, creditors, and other parties.
Sole proprietorships are the most basic form of business organization and are often started by entrepreneurs or individuals who have limited capital to form other forms of businesses
