Answer:

sole proprietorship

Step-by-step explanation:

By far the most common type of business in the US is the sole proprietorship. Basically, Jane will be her own boss. She will be responsible and liable for all the business's obligations since a sole proprietorship is considered a pass through entity. That means that it doesn't exist by itself, and it is not taxed directly. Jane must report all the income and expenses from her business in her annual tax report.
