What is a corporation?
A corporation is a business that is formed and authorized by law to act as a
single entity although it is constituted and owned by one or more persons.
It is legally endowed with rights and responsibilities, defined by the
United States Supreme Court as "an artificial being, invisible, intangible
and existing only in contemplation of the law."
What are some advantages to forming a corporation?
* Limited Liability - The liability of the owners is limited to the extent
of their investment in the corporation (with the exception of unpaid taxes.)
Creditors cannot attach property of the owners. The corporation can enter
into contracts, sue and be sued without involvement of the owners.
* Raising Capital - Capital can be raised more easily by selling shares of
stock in the business.
* Transference of Ownership - Ownership is more easily transferred since the
owners' interest is represented by shares of stock. Shares can be easily
distributed to family members.
* Perpetual Existence - Because it is an independent legal entity, it does
not cease to exist just because one of the owners dies or wishes to retire.
* Retirement Plans - Retirement funds such as Keogh, 401k's, defined
contribution plans, and other profit-sharing, pension and stock option plans
offer greater benefits to corporations.
* Tax options - There are many more tax options available to a corporation
than any other form of business. * and many more!
