What percentage of barter income is taxable?

All of your barter income is taxable in the US according to the IRS. When you set up a one-on-one barter with another business, each business is expected to report the value of that exchange as income - on your regular Schedule C. If you join a formal barter exchange, they will (and must) report your barter income to the IRS with a 1099-B. This is a benefit to businesses because, any barter income you spend for business expenses will be deducted the same as cash. A business can also DONATE barter income to a 501(c)(3) to receive the same tax benefits as if you donated cash!
