As a designer operating an LLC in Arkansas, your business is likely treated as a pass-through entity for tax purposes. This means profits are passed through to you personally and taxed at your individual income tax rate. You'll need to pay both income tax and self-employment tax (Social Security and Medicare) on your profits. Arkansas also has a state income tax and sales tax considerations for designers selling tangible products or digital goods. Understanding these different layers is crucial for financial planning. Lovie can help automate calculations and track these obligations.
