2016 Census Dictionary >> Glossary >> Negative income

Negative income

Negative income occurs when the operating expenses are higher than the gross receipts (or revenue) of a self-employed person, business or a rental property. A person has negative income if these losses are greater than any income, benefits or allowances received from other sources.

See also Income, Total Personal Income (weekly) (INCP).
