C- CORPORATION

A C- Corporation is a corporation that is owned by shareholders. The corporation will have a Board of Directors responsible for making appropriate business decisions. A C- Corporation is treated as an independent entity. Owners of a C- Corporation will have limited liability, which means that they do not have any personal liability for any debts or loans that may be incurred by the corporation.

S- CORPORATION

An S- Corporation is a corporation that complies with the tax requirements under Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Under that definition, a corporation that has up to 100 shareholders will enjoy all the advantages of incorporation, while also having the same tax obligations as a partnership.

LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY

More commonly known as an LLC, a limited liability company is a business organization that combines the taxation policies that apply to a partnership with the liability of a corporation. Owners of a Limited Liability Company are responsible for reporting any business profits or losses on their personal income tax returns. They also enjoy limited liability for business loans.
