What is a Corporation

Discover the essence and benefits of corporations, uncovering their profound significance in enriching lives. Let the adventure begin!

A corporation, an esteemed business entity, is established through the process of filing formation documents with the state, commonly known as incorporation. Much like a Limited Liability Company (LLC), a corporation is a separate legal entity, bestowing protection against business liabilities and debts. In addition to these benefits, corporations present further advantages such as the presence of shareholders, offering ownership opportunities, as well as the ability to attract external investors, thereby unlocking avenues for growth and expansion.


Typically, the legal structure of a corporation requires the officers to abide by statutory protocols and procedures, thus ensuring transparency and accountability.


Moreover, corporate structures also enable businesses to access more credit opportunities as they are viewed as separate entities from the owners’ personal assets. Furthermore, profits earned through corporations may be taxed at lower rates than those for individuals. Lastly, corporations

Why Start a Corporation?

Attract and keep top talent by offering competitive benefits packages that include shares of your company.

Attract Investors

Raise funds by appealing to investors who may prefer corporations for the ability to offer stock.

Look More Official

Corporations are often seen as more credible, which can make it easier to do business with other companies.

Benefits of having a Corporation

There are numerous benefits to forming a corporation. Incorporation provides liability protection, shielding owners from personal responsibility for business obligations such as debts or lawsuits. This legal structure not only safeguards the personal assets of the owners but also instills a sense of trust and confidence in potential investors, making it easier to attract external investments and fuel business growth.


In addition to liability protection and the inclusion of shareholders, corporations are subject to certain legal obligations that must be upheld. This includes the adoption of by-laws, which serve as guidelines for corporate governance, and the conduct of annual shareholder meetings to discuss company affairs and make important decisions. Furthermore, corporations are required to issue written corporate resolutions for significant matters and file annual reports to keep stakeholders informed about the company's financial performance and overall compliance.

S-Corp or C-Corp: What's the Difference?

S corporation and C corporation designations are both valid choices when incorporating a business—and whichever you choose, we can help make it happen. Before you make your decision, make sure you understand the pros and cons of each.

S-Corp

Taxes on profits only

Shareholders only pay taxes on profits received. Income gets passed through to owners instead of being taxed at the corporate & shareholder level, avoiding double taxation.


Shareholder maximum

The maximum shareholders is 100, and they all must be U.S. citizens or residents.


Only common stock available

S corporation owners can only get common stock, which comes with voting rights.

C-Corp

Taxes on income and profits

Income is taxed twice—the business pays taxes on its net income, and then the shareholders also pay taxes on the profits they receive

.


No Shareholder maximum

There are no limits on who and how many people can own shares.


Preferred stock available

Owners may get preferred stock, which usually comes with no voting rights but priority to dividends before common shareholders.
