Disclosing Barter Income
The fair market value of any items or services you obtain through bartering must be included in your gross income in the year that you receive them. Typically, Schedule C (Form 1040), Profit or Loss from Business is where you declare this revenue (Sole Proprietorship).
You could owe income tax, self-employment tax, employment tax, or even excise tax on your bartering income even if you didn't receive any actual cash since "barter dollars," the fair market worth of the items and services you got, are taxed the same way as cash.
