In this module, we will learn the other three forms of business organizations namely, corporation, limited liability corporation, and cooperative. Moreover, we will also discuss the different classifications of businesses according to their activities. Corporation https://pixabay.com/illustrations/business-global-work-3443583/ A corporation is defined as “A corporation is an artificial being created by operation of law, having the right of succession and the powers, attributes, and properties expressly authorized by law or incident to its existence” as stated in the Batas Pambansa Blg. 68 also known as The Corporation Code of the Philippines. (https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/1980/05/01/batas-pambansa-bilang-68/) Owners of a corporation are called shareholders (for Stock Corporation) and members (for Non-stock Corporation). The corporation is considered as a unique entity, separate and apart from those who own it. A corporation itself can be sued, taxed, and enter into a contractual agreement. Advantages of Corporation 1. Limited liability- unlike sole proprietorship and partnership, a corporation has limited liability because a corporation is a unique and separate entity from the owners. The assets of the company alone are the only way to pay for all the debts the firm incurred or once the company goes bankrupt. 2. Ease of transfer of ownership- stockholders can sell their shares without affecting the status of the corporation. 3. Unlimited life- there is a life term for the corporation but it can be renewed. In case one of the owners of the company died, it will not affect the existence of the business. 4. Raise additional funds- the company can raise funds by selling new shares of stocks. Also, it is easy for them to apply for bank financing especially if the company is stable and profitable. Disadvantages of Corporation 1. Double taxation- The corporation must pay tax for the profit and at the same time, the dividends given to shareholders are also being taxed as personal income. 2. Cost and complexity of formation- establishing a corporation takes a lot of time, effort, and money than other forms of organization. 3. Government restrictions- corporations are monitored by the government and are subject to many regulations and reporting requirements. Limited Liability Corporation (LLC) Limited liability companies are a hybrid business that has characteristics of both corporation and partnership. An LLC is a separate entity like a corporation that conducts business and owns assets. There is no restriction on the number of members (owners referred to as members). The owners have limited liability because of its distinction with the company but are taxed like a general partnership https://pixabay.com/vectors/people-group- crowd-team-isolated-309097/ Advantages of Limited Liability Corporation 1. Limited liability- the business is a separate entity from the owner that is why personal assets of owners are restricted from the debt of the business. 2. Pass-through tax structure – income from your business can be treated as your personal income. 3. Organizational Freedom- there are no restrictions when it comes to the number of members. 4. Limited regulations- the business is not required to abide by some regulations implemented in a corporation business such as record keeping, board meeting, and administrative duties of the corporation. Disadvantages of Limited Liability Company 1. Building Capital –limited liability corporation as a form of business is not that popular so investors are not convinced to invest their money in this kind of company. 2. No perpetual existence – this form of business organization will cease to exist once one member of the company died or withdraw. Cooperative Cooperative is well-known as “co-op” that is organized for-profit and non-profit. It is a form of business organization with members working together toward a common goal for their mutual benefit. The main purpose of cooperative business is not merely for making profit but to provide goods or services at a reasonable price. As defined by the Cooperative Development https://pixabay.com/vectors/people-human- Authority, group-person-symbol-3245739/ “A cooperative is an autonomous and duly registered association of persons, with a common bond of interest, who have voluntarily joined together to achieve their social, economic and cultural needs and aspirations by making equitable contributions to the capital required, patronizing their products and services and accepting a fair share of risks and benefits of the undertaking per the universally accepted cooperative principles.” (https://www.cda.gov.ph/frequently-asks-questions- faqs#:~:text=FIRST.,provided%20for%20through%20a%20cooperative.) Advantages of Cooperative 1. Ease of formation – it only needs 15 members to be able to apply for a cooperative business and needs just simple legal documentary requirements. 2. Voluntary organization – it is open for all, so anybody who wants to be one with the common goal of the organization can be a member. The membership fee is kept low so that anyone can join and of course, any member also has the freedom to exit anytime without barrier. 3. Separate entity- the cooperative is distinct from its members. The cooperative business is a separate legal entity from its members. So whenever a member exits or dies, the business continues with the operation. 4. Limited liability- members’ liability is up to the extent of their capital only. They are not accountable to debts of the cooperative itself. 5. Government support- government supports this kind of business and they offer a loan that has lower interest rates and provides subsidies. 6. Low taxes- government provides various tax exemption. Disadvantage of Cooperative 1. Limited Capital- the rate of return of capital is low that is why it is difficult to raise funds. 2. Inefficient management- members of management are not efficient in handling the cooperative because they are inexperienced. It also difficult to find a qualified management team because it cannot offer competitive salaries and benefits. 3. Lack of interest- paid-members are not motivated to function well because their interests are not fully satisfied. In effect, the cooperative becomes inactive. 4. Corruption- because of a lack of profit motive, some members try to make misuse of some funds for personal gains. 5. Government Intervention- all of the daily operations of the business are subject to the rules and regulations of the government. Regular bookkeeping and monitoring are mandatory to cooperative business. 6. Conflict among members- because of their differences, some members are having issues with other co-members that create disharmony among them. Some also feel like controlling the whole organization. Basic Classification of Business Service Business – this is a type of business that provides intangible products (no physical form). Some needed people to deliver service and some needed goods to deliver service. https://pixabay.com/illustrations/cleaning- Types of Service Business service-cleaner-hand-3934664/ a. Service business- this type of service offers intangible goods and charged because of labor. Examples are consulting firms, entertainment, salon, and the likes. b. Financial business- this type of service makes a profit through investment and asset management like banks, insurance, lending companies, and others. c. Transportation service- this type of service includes logistics and sending people to a certain locations for a fee. d. Utilities- this service provides public services such as water, electricity, telecommunication, and more. Merchandising Business- is also known as “buy and sell” where businessman buys good at a certain cost and sells it on a much higher price to earn a profit. Merchandising business sells products on the same form it was bought. a. Retailers and distributors- these businesses act as middlemen to satisfy consumers by delivering goods produced by manufacturers. Retailers and https://pixabay.com/illustrations/supermarket-shelf- distributors make a profit through mark up. products-shampoo-1094812/ Manufacturing business- this type of business buys raw materials and converts these materials into a new type of product. The newly manufactured products will then sell to consumers. a. Agriculture and mining businesses- produce raw materials such as plants or minerals. b. Manufacturers- produce tangible goods from raw materials. Examples are canned goods, supplies, and many more. c. Real-estate businesses- those who sell or rent https://unsplash.com/photos/Xlc8HG_FB2k properties such as land, residential, and commercial spaces and other buildings. d. Information businesses- those that sell intellectual properties such as publishers and internet and software companies. Hybrid Businesses- from the term “hybrid” means a combination of two or more types of business. One best example is a restaurant where it combines and cooks ingredients to form a new dish (manufacturing) sells canned soda (merchandising) and provides dining services (services). But it will be classified according to the major interest of the business, for instance, a restaurant will be classified as a service types of business for it focuses more on the dining service. https://unsplash.com/photos/sWEpcc0Rm0U ACTIVITIES Determine the advantages and disadvantages of corporation, limited liability corporation, and cooperative.
