Taxation As The Major Difference Between Corporations And LLC

May 20, 2008 By: Admin Category: Corporations, LLC No Comments →

Corporations and Limited Liability Companies (LLC) are formed to shield owners from personal liability for the debts and obligations of their businesses. It is advisable to form either one or the other according to the needs of your business to minimize the risk of losing personal assets due to unpaid business credits. Several firms like Nevada LLC Corporation offer excellent services related to corporations and Limited Liability Companies, which enable them to run smoothly. One of the major differences between a corporation and an LLC is that they have different federal tax liabilities.

Corporations are incorporated according to the state laws and the owners are shareholders, who have stock certificates issued by the corporation. The owners elect a Board of Directors to manage and guide the company and the owners appoint officers to execute and run the day-to-day operations. Members of the company form a Limited Liability Company, which they manage through one or more managers. Both entities, the corporation and the LLC, must pay franchise taxes. A corporation pays taxes according to the laws of the particular state applicable to corporations. An LLC with more than one member is classified as a partnership by default. These partners may select being taxed as a C-Corporation or an S-Corporation. C corporations are taxed as separate entities, which pay their own tax, but LLCs are taxed as part of the members’ assets. This means C corporation owners can’t deduct business loses from individual tax returns, but LLC members can. So you can see that taxation is the major difference between a corporation and an LLC.
