Types of Business Entities

The main types of business entities are sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company (LLC), and corporation. Each has different implications for ownership, liability, and taxation. A sole proprietorship is owned by one person who has unlimited personal liability, while a partnership involves two or more owners with shared liability. An LLC provides liability protection and offers operational and tax flexibility. A corporation is a separate legal entity with its own liability protections, and can be structured as an S Corporation or a C Corporation.

Sole Proprietorship

  • Ownership: A single owner.
  • Liability: The owner has unlimited personal liability for business debts.
  • Taxes: Business income is reported on the owner's personal tax return.

Partnership

  • Ownership: Two or more people who share profits and losses.
  • Liability: Partners are typically personally liable for business debts, though this can vary (e.g., limited partnership).
  • Taxes: Profits and losses pass through to the partners' individual tax returns.

Limited Liability Company (LLC)

  • Ownership: One or more owners (members).
  • Liability: Owners have limited personal liability for business debts.
  • Taxes: Can choose to be taxed as a sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation.

Corporation

  • Ownership: Owned by shareholders.
  • Liability: A separate legal entity, so owners are not personally liable for business debts.
  • Taxes: C Corporation: Taxed separately from its owners, leading to potential double taxation, which implies that the corporation files its taxes separately from its directors and shareholders.
  • S Corporation: Allows profits and losses to be passed through to owners' personal income without being subject to corporate tax rates, while still providing limited liability.
