1. CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO CORPORATIONS: ORGANIZATIONS AND CAPITAL STOCK

2. CORPORATIONS 4Sell more goods and services in total than sole proprietorships and partnerships combined éBut there are fewer businesses organized as corporations. 4Separate legal entity that exists separate from its owners éCorporation’s assets and liabilities are those of the business, not the owners. éCorporation can own property, enter into contracts and incur debt in its own name. It can sue and be sued.

3. CHARACTERISTICS LIMITED LIABILITY OF OWNERS Owners of a corporation generally have no personal liability for the debts of the corporation. Major advantage of corporations

4. CHARACTERISTICS TRANSFERABLE OWNERSHIP UNITS Owner’s equity in a corporation is called Capital Stock. Capital Stock is divided into shares that can be transferred from one person to another without the consent of the other owners and without disturbing the corporation’s normal activities.

5. CHARACTERISTICS EASE OF RAISING CAPITAL The limited liability and transferable ownership characteristics are attractive to investors. Therefore, a corporation generally can obtain capital by selling additional shares of stock.

6. CHARACTERISTICS NO MUTUAL AGENCY Unlike partnerships, in a corporation individual owner’s do not have the power to act as an agent of the business.

7. CHARACTERISTICS UNLIMITED LIFE The corporation’s charter states the life as either perpetual or renewable. Changes in ownership have no effect on the life of a corporation.

8. CHARACTERISTICS TAXATION OF EARNINGS Corporations must pay income taxes. In addition, the corporation’s owners pay personal income tax on the dividends they receive. This results in “Double taxation”. DISADVANTAGE

9. CHARACTERISTICS GOVERNMENT REGULATION Activities of the corporation are regulated by federal, state and local laws. These laws may restrict the corporation’s ownership of real property, the purchase of its own stock and the retention of its earnings. DISADVANTAGE

10. CORPORATION é States have the power to create corporations. Incorporators file an application with the state.
