Verified step by step guidance

Understand the purpose of IRS Form 1040: It is a form used by individual taxpayers to report their annual income and calculate the amount of tax owed or refund due.

Recognize that IRS Form 1040 is not used for business-related taxes such as sales tax collected by businesses or payroll tax withholdings for employees. These are reported on different forms.

Note that corporate financial statements are not part of IRS Form 1040. Corporations use separate forms like Form 1120 to report their financial information.

Identify that IRS Form 1040 is specifically designed to collect individual income and tax information, including wages, salaries, deductions, credits, and other personal financial details.

Conclude that the correct answer is 'Individual income and tax information,' as this aligns with the purpose of IRS Form 1040.
