I helped out a friend with his business. He paid me $600, which was my only earned income for 2016. I also received $890 in tips from his customers.

You would be self-employed with $1490 in gross income. Create a self-employment return (schedule C) and report the income as "other income not reported on 1099-MISC." (Many self-employed people recieve some of their income on a 1099-MISC but not all, and you are required to maintain your own accurate records of income and expenses and report them on schedule C.)
