My fico is mid 700's but I only make $28k per annum from my biz, plus $47k from other sources. I do have 8 credit cards with about 90k credit available, with very small balances. Presumably the low biz income of $28k was the reason I got such a low credit line.
I think your ratio 90 / (28+47) > 1 is the real reason. They don't care about the source of your income.
