A corporation is an association of individuals created by law that has continuous existence separate from its members. Franchises like Monkey Joes and BP gas stations have advantages like existing advertising and cards but also disadvantages such as startup costs. A mission statement expresses a business's reason for existing while goals and procedures guide employee actions and organizational charts clarify reporting structure.
