Way to many variables to give a satisfactory answer.  It will depend heavily on your specific circumstances and you should consult a lawyer or accountant, or both for a final answer.  In simple terms:\n\nPartnerships are just regular sole proprietorships that are run by more than one person.  Gains/losses, etc can be split in many different ways, but in the end the taxes are paid by the owners as individual income.\n\nC Corps are completely autonomous entities.  They make money, incur expenses, and pay taxes at a corporate rate after you net the two.  Capital is the money that is provided by the owners (stock for major corps).  Any return of capital is considered non taxable.  Most payments that an owner receives, though, will be in the form of wages.  This is an expense for the corporation but is taxable to the owner.\n\nS corps are similar to C corps except that the earnings are considered to be earned by the individual.  The corporation does not pay tax as all earnings flow through to the owner.  As a general rule this form of business is the most advantageous.

I don't really know what you mean here--do you wish to own shares in a corporation (the source), or buy them through options?  And you want to know which is better?\n\nOr do you want to know what corporations would do?  Since the most likely scenario in a tekover would be through electing a new board of directors, they more than likely would go for the voting common shares.\n\nHope this helps somewhat!\n--J.

A corporation is a legal entity (distinct from a natural person) that often has similar rights in law to those of a natural person. Civil law systems may refer to corporations as "moral persons"; they may also go by the name "AS" (anonymous society) or something similar, depending on language (see below).\n\nIn colloquial usage, "corporation" usually refers to a commercial entity set up in accordance with a governmental framework. Churches (mainly in US, but not so much in other countries, where Churches have a different status), interest groups (both can form as not-for-profit corporations or can exist as voluntary associations), cities and townships (often chartered as public corporations), among others, may also have historically lengthy corporate identities.

Corporations are given the rights of individuals and should be held accountable by the same standards. Like all good citizens they have a responsibility to protect the environment of the communities they reside in as well as the places where their products are used. They also have a responsibility to protect their employees from environmental and workplace hazards.\n\nThey have a responsibility to their customers, employees and stockholders to operate their businesses honestly and fairly. They must avoid deception and the appearance of deception.\n\nUnfortunately corporations have accepted the rights of individuals and have avoided the responsibility portion of the formula. Corporations today have very little regard for communities they reside in.  They hide under the shield of multinationalism. They operate everywhere with responsibility to no one. They strip natural resources from countries without environment protections statutes. When they are forced to clean up their act they simply move to the next third world country. They have a total disregard for people, governments and cultures. They do the absolute minimum required. They have no regard for others.\n\nModern corporation operate for the benefit of their executives and key investors, and no one else. They routinely shift resources between corporations at the expense of the common stock holder. They have become so powerful that they manipulated governments and even instigate wars to protect their assets. Today’s corporations have become the monsters without souls and new laws need to be written to protect society from them.

Sec 4 of the Companies Act, 1956 defines holding and subsidiary company. With reference to this, holding company is the one which acquires controlling interest in another company by - (1) acquiring more than 50% of equity capital, (2) having such powers which enables it to appoint or remove majority directors on other company's board, or (3) acquiring holding company of another company through one of the two modes above.\n\nHence holding company is the controlling company whereas subsidiary company is the controlled company. But legally both are seperate entities and in practical may just operate seperately even in different lines of business.\n\nPeople are not even aware many a times which company is subsidiary of which company.

Corporation: -\n\nA legal entity that is separate and distinct from its owners. Corporations enjoy most of the rights and responsibilities that an individual possesses that is, a corporation has the right to enter into contracts, loan and borrow money, sue and be sued, hire employees, own assets and pay taxes. \n\nThe most important aspect of a corporation is limited liability. That is, shareholders have the right to participate in the profits, through dividends and/or the appreciation of stock, but are not held personally liable for the company's debts.\n\nCompany:\n\nA proprietorship, partnership, corporation, or other form of enterprise that engages in business.

When a company's revenues exceeds its expenses the company has a profit. All profits are reported to shareholders, financial institutions (those insituions who have an interest in the company) and others owners (owners who hold debt like bonds and debentures) on the companies Income Statement.  Now the company has two options to decide what to do with those profits. The company can decide to distribute those  profits to its shareholders, or they can keep them. They usually make this decsion at the company's annual meeting. The shareholders are the real owners of the company - when a company is started the shareholders give the company cash (so the company has an asset and the ability to "sartup") and in turn the shareholders get shares - pieces of paper representing ownerhsip - the ownership they have is represeted on the balance sheet called owners equity. \nWhen a company makes a profit and when those profits are kept them they are called retained earnings. Retained earnings are used to pay off old debt, other expenses etc. When a company gives its profits to shareholders they are called dividends. Certain shares have more rights when it comes to getting the dividens (ie preferred shareholders get their dividends before common shareholders). \nOnly  when a company maximizes is profits does it maxmimise the amount of those profits that it can pay to its shareholders. Makes sense because if you don't make any profit - because your expenses are more then your revenues then you really can't pay shareholders anyting. \nOne final thing, the more profit your company makes the more you can pay out to your sharholders - the higher payout = a higher dividend and shares with higher dividends are the most valued by investors (that is why those shares are so expensive).  So share price is related to coprorate profits as well.

Corporations are set up for several reasons.  A couple of these are to protect the assets of the owners, and to provide an easy way to raise capital for the company.  In a sole proprietorship or partnership, the owner(s) are PERSONALLY liable for any losses incurred by the company, whereas with a corporation the owner's (stockholder's) assets are kept seperate, and cannot be accessed except in rare cases where the, "corporate veil may be pierced."  Corporations provide an easy way to raise capital, because all they have to do is issue and sell more stock in the company to gain more capital.  There are other laws about this, but those are the basics.  \n\nOne disadvantage is that income from a corporation is, "taxed doubly."  When you hear this referred to, people mean that any profits the corporation makes in a given year are taxed, and then the owners are paid through dividends, which are taxed again, even though the money was already taxed as corporate profit.

A national corporation does business throughout a country. It can be publicly or privately held. A private company is privately held, not owned by stockholders. There's really no way to compare the two.
