Thanks, it seemed strange to report business income as personal
income, I found this explanation here:

Investment income. Income such as interest and dividends from bank
accounts, stocks, and bonds are generally not considered business
income for a sole proprietor, even if you think of them as reserve
funds for business downturns. Instead, they are treated as personal
items to be reported on Schedule B, Interest and Ordinary Dividends,
which is part of your Form 1040. Any gains or losses on your
investments are reported on Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses.
