Lesson 3 OMTE 001 Legal Forms of Organization for the Small Business & Firms ...RodantesRivera3
The document discusses different legal forms of organization for small businesses, including sole proprietorships, partnerships, corporations, and limited liability companies (LLCs). It notes that sole proprietorships are the most common form but also have unlimited liability, while partnerships have unlimited liability for general partners. Corporations provide limited liability but are more expensive to start. LLCs also provide limited liability and have fewer regulatory requirements than corporations. The document emphasizes that small business owners should carefully consider factors like vision, control, liability exposure and tax implications when choosing a legal structure.
This chapter discusses different forms of business ownership including sole proprietorships, partnerships, corporations, S corporations, limited liability companies, franchises, and cooperatives.
It compares the advantages and disadvantages of each form. Sole proprietorships provide ease of starting but unlimited liability, while partnerships allow more financial resources but potential disagreements. Corporations enable raising more money but have double taxation. S corporations and LLCs provide liability protection with pass-through taxation. Franchises offer established brands but require large fees.
The chapter also covers topics like mergers and acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, diversity in franchising, and using new technologies like social media and e-commerce for franchise expansion.
AC102 PPT3 - Partnership (PPT from Sir Leandro Fua)Carla
The document discusses the nature and formation of partnerships under Philippine law. It defines partnerships and outlines their key characteristics like mutual agency, unlimited liability, and tax treatment. The document also covers the different types of partnerships based on their activity, object, liability of partners, duration, representation, legality, and publicity. It discusses the classes of partners in terms of their contributions, liability, and roles in management. The formation requirements for partnerships like the articles of co-partnership and government registrations are presented.
There are four main forms of business organization: sole proprietorships, partnerships, corporations, and limited liability companies (LLCs). Sole proprietorships have one owner with unlimited liability, while partnerships have two or more owners with unlimited or limited liability depending on the type of partnership. Corporations have stockholders with limited liability and can exist indefinitely. LLCs combine features of corporations and partnerships, providing owners limited liability with pass-through taxation.
Business Entities: classify, understand, choose, and manage.Berkman Solutions
Business entities are essential for starting, managing, and growing your business. This guides to business entities covers every major type, core concepts, criteria for choosing an entity, and legal entity management.
“Business entity” is a generic term with no legal significance per se. A business entity simply refers to the form of incorporation for a business. When a business incorporates, the law recognizes the business as a distinct entity which can enter contracts and acquire property among other rights and privileges.
There are, of course, some exceptions like sole proprietorships and general partnerships, which do not require incorporation. They also do not have the same right and privileges as incorporated legal entities.
There are four broad groups of business entities: limited liability companies, corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships. There are important flavors of each class of business entity.
Forming an entity provides benefits like formalizing activities, branding, and limiting personal liability. Generally, shareholders are protected from a corporation's debts, but this "corporate veil" can be pierced for issues like undercapitalization or commingling funds. Good corporate governance through practices like regular board meetings helps maximize value and distinguishes companies for acquisitions or investors. Common entity choices include sole proprietorships, corporations, LLCs, and each has different formation documents and governance structures.
As per Companies Act, 1956 :
Holding Company: A holding company is a parent company that owns enough voting stock(more than 50%) in a subsidiary to make management decisions , influence and contorl the company's board of directors
