Can I exclude my expenses for my small business?

Can I exclude my expenses for my small business?

Why do you want to do that?  You have to report your expenses along with your self-employment income.  You cannot 'fudge" the expenses in order to increase your earned income credit or make your income look better for a lender, etc.

A simple no will do if that's the case, I don't appreciate the accusation. I simply don't have all the information thank you..
