Read on to find out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Sole Proprietorship<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    There are many benefits to owning a sole proprietorship business. This option allows you to operate your own business without employees and has many advantages, such as setting your own hours and prices. As a sole proprietor, business income or loss is reported on your personal tax return, but sole proprietors should pay self-employment taxes (social security and Medicare). Depending on income, quarterly payments may be required. A sole proprietorship might be a sound option if you\u2019re interested in starting a business. Consult an accountant or tax professional to learn more about this type of small business and its many benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Partnership<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      There are many small business partnerships, but the most common type is a general partnership. Business income or loss is passed through personal tax returns in a general partnership. Your assets are responsible for the partnership\u2019s debts. Two or more owners\/operators are involved in a general partnership, which may be either general or limited. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A limited partnership is a business partnership in which a limited number of partners operate the business while \u201climited partners\u201d provide investment. Business income or loss is passed through personal tax returns in a general partnership. Your assets are not responsible for the partnership\u2019s debts. Individuals and businesses typically form partnerships to gain synergy and share resources. So, if you\u2019re considering starting or joining a small business partnership, make sure you know the types of partnerships available and their benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Limited Liability Corporation (LLC)<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        When it comes to business, a variety of options are available to you. One of these options is the limited liability corporation (LLC). An LLC is a business structure that can separate personal assets from the business. This can be a good option for people who are new to business or want to start a business but don\u2019t want to take on the risk of personal liability. There are many different types of LLCs, so be sure to research which one is right for your business before forming it. Business income or loss is passed through personal tax returns, so all members are allowed full participation in the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. Subchapter C Corporation<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          As the name suggests, this kind of business is typically used by small business owners who want to protect their personal assets from the risk of financial loss. This means that the owner\u2019s personal assets are not at stake in the event of business failure. Furthermore, subchapter C corporations\u2019 benefits include the ability to raise funds easily. However, this is often offset by high administrative costs and complex rules and formalities that differ from state to state. Subchapter C corporations are subject to double taxation of earnings, which means that business income is taxed twice - once as business income and again as personal income. So, if you\u2019re considering starting or running a small business, consider using this type of business structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
