Types of business in the United States of America


There are many types of business entities in the US. They fall into two main
groups: those that are filed at the office of the local county clerk, while the
remaining types of companies are filed with the Secretary of State or similar office
of the state government. The most common type of business entities are two:
corporations and Limited Liability companies (LLC)
C Corporation: A corporation is a separate legal entity set up under state law that
protects owner (shareholder) assets from creditor claims. Incorporating your
business automatically makes you a regular or C corporation. A C corporation (or
C corp.) is a separate taxpayer, with income and expenses taxed to the corporation
and not owners. If corporate profits are then distributed to owners as dividends,
owners must pay personal income tax on the distribution, creating double taxation
(profits are taxed first at the corporate level and again at the personal level as
dividends). Many small businesses do not opt for C corporations because of this
tax feature.
S corporation: Once youve incorporated, you can elect S corporation status by
filing a form with the IRS and with your state, if applicable, so that profits, losses
and other tax items pass through the corporation to you and are reported on your
personal tax return (the S corporation does not pay tax).
Limited liability Company (LLC): Another business type that is formed under
state law and gives you personal liability protection is the LLC. Tax-wise, an LLC is
similar to an S corporation (or S corp.), with business income and expenses
reported on your personal tax return. If you are the only owner of an LLC, you are
viewed as a disregarded entity. This means you report the LLCs income and
expenses on Schedule C of Form 1040the same schedule used by sole
proprietors.
Sole Proprietorship: this is the simplest way to create and operate a company.
This kind of business is managed by one person and this one is the responsible of
any profit or loss. The features of this type of business are: it is inexpensive to
create the company, it is easy to dissolve, has no tax aspects used a basic
bookkeeping and when the owner dies the company does not exists anymore.
Stock company (Sociedad Annima): It is a business entity where there are
different stocks can be bought by shareholders. Each shareholder has a portion in
company stock. Shareholders are able to transfer their shares to other without any
effects to the existence of the company.
In modern corporate law the stock company is often synonymous with
incorporation with limited liability.
