Since 2012, it's profitable to be a sole proprietor as you make 11k in a month. A sole proprietor should allocate fixed payments to the Pension Fund and social insurance funds, which make up a total of 17208.25 rubles a year in 2012.
Payments depend on the minimum wage, which is regularly raised and in the next year will grow by 13%.
From 2013, payments of sole proprietors to the pension fund are doubled. And since 2015, it was planned to be tripled, but common sense prevailed. In 2014, a differentiated scale of contributions was introduced.
Doubling was canceled, and instead, when your profits excess 300k per year, the sole proprietor pays an additional 1% to Pension Fund. The following chart shows the monthly income that makes it profitable to be a sole proprietor by years.
