WHICH BUSINESS ENTITY IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
In cases where a business is operated from home, has a single owner, and offers products or services with low legal risks, & there is no need for employees.
In cases where business owners have no plans to reinvest their earnings into the company, multi-owner businesses prefer to avoid compliance formalities, there are no employees in a multi-owner business, and the products and services offered by a business pose little to no legal risks, these situations may arise.
In situations where business owners desire to minimize personal liability and avoid the formalities associated with a Corporation, while still maintaining flexibility in terms of ownership and management, and have no intention of pursuing venture capital or equity funding.
If a business is anticipating upcoming profits that they plan to reinvest, seeking venture capital and equity financing, or hoping to increase the number of shareholders.
In the case of LLC members are aiming to reduce their self-employment taxes, if a Corporation intends to steer clear of dual taxation on dividend revenue, or when a business does not require multiple types of stock issuance or over a hundred shareholders.
If the objective of a company is to serve a specific cause rather than make profits for its proprietors.
If the state where the business will operate mandates it, or if the business will involve several owners who are professionals offering high-risk services, then it will be necessary to comply with certain requirements.
