Navigating the complexities of financial aid for the 2016-17 school year requires attention to detail, especially for those with farm or business assets. The Business/Farm Supplement form stands as a crucial piece of documentation, designed to paint a comprehensive picture of an owner's financial circumstances. Applicants are advised to meticulously draw information from their 2014 and 2015 IRS tax returns, including specific forms relevant to their business type, such as Schedules C, D, and F, or Form 1120 for incorporated businesses, among others. This detailed approach ensures that financial aid administrators receive a clear view of an applicant's income, expenses, and net profit, which are central to determining eligibility for assistance. The form also addresses unique situations, such as businesses or farms serving as primary family support despite reporting low profits, urging applicants to provide explanatory details in such cases. Moreover, it distinguishes between different sources of income and expenses, whether from traditional business operations or farm-specific activities, with precision on acreage and the value of owned land. Assets and liabilities are dissected with equal thoroughness, guiding owners through a process to accurately report current and fixed assets alongside any debts. Ultimately, this supplement form is a critical tool for both families and financial aid officers, facilitating a fair and accurate financial aid process by ensuring that every significant detail of one's business or farm is accounted for without having to submit exhaustive supplementary financial documents.

Instructions for Completing the Business/Farm Supplement
Complete a supplement for each business or farm.
When completing this supplement, refer to both your 2014 and 2015 IRS tax returns — specifically, Form 1040, Schedules C, D, and F, as applicable. If an incorporated business is involved, refer to Form 1120 as well. If a partnership is involved, also refer to Form 1065 and/or Schedule K1. For any year for which tax forms have not been completed, estimate as accurately as possible.
The financial aid administrator may later ask you to provide copies of your tax returns, including your corporate and partnership tax return(s).
If you are the owner or part owner of a partnership or a corporation: (1) Enter your percentage of ownership (question 6); (2) enter total income, expense deductions and profit for the entire business entity (questions
IMPORTANT: If a business is a major source of family support but no salaries are reported and business net profit is under $10,000, explain on an attached sheet how basic family expenses are met.
Don’t submit balance sheets, profit and loss statements, cash flow statements, or tax returns in place of the Business/Farm Supplement, unless specifically request- ed by your college.
If your home is part of the business or farm, enter its value and the amount of its mortgage on the CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE® Application. Don’t include your home value on the Business/Farm Supplement.
If farm income is reported on an accrual basis, the required information can be found on IRS Form 1040, Schedule F, Part III. In this case, disregard questions
If you have gains or losses from the sale or exchange of livestock and/or farm machinery, report the full amount of such gains or losses in question 16 below. Don’t include in this question gains or losses arising from the sale or exchange of other property, as reported on your IRS Form 1040, Schedule D.
If a financial question does not apply to you, write 0. Do not leave questions blank unless the instructions tell you to do so.
