different type of business organization that are determined by various factor such as paperwork,
taxes, working capital and personnel liability (Four main types of business organization., 2021).
Depending on the types and size of business there are 4 type likewise sole proprietorship,
corporation, limited liability and partnership that help business in growing in the competitive
market.
Sole Proprietorship: This type of business usually has one owner that run the company and
there is no separate existence of the firm. All the income and loss are taxed against the personnel
income of the onwner. Along, with this it does not require lot of paper and all the profit and loss
are bear by the individual. As well as owner of the organization is directly liable for the assets,
liability, profit and loss for the business. Moreover, the owner can choose its own name for the
business because of individual entity.
There are many advantage and disadvantage of this type that business has to face. Such as
owner has full control on the company that benefit them in knowing the major and minor detail
of the firm. Beside this the owner has full access to profit that contribute in investing in new
venture easily (Kasahu., 2020). Along with this it helps in gathering the feedback of the
company position in the external environment as well as internal strength. However, the owner

faces certain challenges such as high working capital demand that affect the operational cost of
the firm. As well as full responsibility of the company has to be bear by the owner that can result
in bad health due to high stress.
Furthermore, the sole owner does not have specific law that govern this type of business
and there are no particular rule and regulation that has to be followed by the owner while
conducting the business. In addition to this most of the organization do not have to do a lot of
legal work to run the business generally it only requires licence for establishing and conducting
the commerce. Moreover, the owner is responsible for the act of the business that can contribute

Partnership: It is a type of business between that have an agreement between two or more party
or an organization to run the business jointly. Generally, the parties share common goal so that it

management, work culture, profit and loss of the business. Moreover, in the partnership each
member has to commit to the resources and liability such as skilled labour and capital in order to
enhance the performance of the business in the competitive market area.
There are three different type of partnership that a business scan adopts such as general,
limited and joint venture. Likewise, general partnership is can be defined as o business owned by
2 or more partner and the maximum limit can be 20 owners (Minzheong., 2020). That has agreed
to share their profit, loss capital and resources in order to sustain in the competitive environment.
Along, with this a legal agreement has to made among the partner that allow the member to have
unlimited liability that basically means that their personnel assets are liable for paying the
business debt. In addition, to this all the member have a liability to pay the personnel and
business tax.
Whereas, in the limited liability there are two of more member that agree for partnership but
din bot have limited liability. Such as one of the partner is liable for only the certain amount that
has been invested by it. In other word, one of the partner is also known as silent partner plays a
role of generating the finance and invest in the current and future business (Al Mamun and
Hasan., 2017). While the other partner follows general partnership such as it has to manage the
day to day function of the organization that are essential for enhancing the performance of the
business.

on the other hand, joint venture is known as legal agreement between more than two
members for sharing their resources and capital in order to accomplish the specific project or
common goal. Moreover, this is different from the general partnership as the entities of the
business is separate. This create problems while paying the tax and due to that the organization
should establish new entity. Beside this the legal consequence of the partnership is that it is
based on the agreement and any breach of the contract can make the partners liable for the
compensation. Along, with this in any debt of business the personnel asset of the members can
be used to settle the liabilities.
Corporation: It can be state as a group of people that unit together for achieving
particular purpose. It is a spate legal body that is elected by the board of directors the person that
het highest vote of BOD is selected as the owner of the company. Whereas depending on the
seize of the organization the various people are selected such as officer, shareholder and director.

corporation is can run the business till its profitable as well as shareholder can stop their
investment if the company is not able to sustain in the competitive environment. The major and
minor decisions of the firm is taken by discussing with the directors, shareholders and officer in
the formal votes (Patidar, Bhardwaj and Choudhary., 2020). And all the management decision
taken by the top tier is recorded in the corporation office hour. Moreover, all the meeting is
abiding by the legal requirement of the state where the cooperation is situated.
There are two types of corporation likewise C and S but most of the business prefer C as
it is less complicated. In C type the owner has to choose their business name that is not registered
as it is allow the organization to have different identity in the market. After the registration in the
state government association the corporation is allotted with the stock. Along, with this the one
that purchase this stock are the owner of the company. Whereas, in the S corporation name has
been driven from the tax law such as chapter 1 of the internal revenue code. Therefore, the firm
has to pay IRS form or the election by small business corporation for enrolling in S corporation.
This was introducing because government want business owner to pay many taxes such as
annual reporting fee or miscellaneous tax (Jacob., 2019.). However, the main reason for the C
corporation is converting into S so that it can save themselves from the range of tax. The legal
consequence of this type is the owner has to full fill the legal requirement of the state
government and any breach in the contract can damage the business image in the market.

offering tax flexibility like partnership (Business organization., 2021). However, the legal
consequence of this type is that it won’t protect the owner if acted in reckless, illegal and
fraudulent manner. Along, with this the director of the company will also be heal liable for not
describing the activities of the company before the government before commencing of business.
In addition, to this the legal form and structure of the company differ from each other likewise
each state has their own rules and regulations and that is also filed in the LLC article.

the percentage of ownership in the firm (Minzheong, S., 2020). As well as it will also include the
rights and duties, distribution of share, voting rights and protocol related to selling the stakes of
the business. Beside this, it is a State structure and because of that there are no particular form of
