Answer:

A sole proprietorship is an unincorporated business with only one owner who pays personal income tax on profits earned. Sole proprietorships are easy to establish and dismantle, due to a lack of government involvement, making them popular with small business owners and contractors. Examples of sole proprietors include small businesses such as, a local grocery store, a local clothes store, an artist, freelance writer, IT consultant, freelance graphic designer, etc.
