Question

Describe the advantages that llc and S corporation‘s passed through entitles have relative to c-corporations

Answer 1

Answer:

Single-layer taxation

Explanation:

Limited liability companies and S corporations are able to pass through their income as the owner's income. "LLC and S corporations" are entities, unlike the C corporation.

Pass-through entities have a taxation advantage over non- pass-through entities. In tax computation, a pass-through entity passes its income or losses as those of its owners; hence the entity will not be subject to income tax. The business profits are treated as income to the owners, who will pay individual tax income. LLC and S corporation have only one layer of taxation.

A  C corporation is subject to taxation as an independent entity. The directors have to file corporate tax returns on behalf of the business based on the company profits. The business profits are distributed to the shareholder as dividends. The shareholders have to pay tax on the dividend received as part of their income tax. The shareholders are double-taxed, as the business owners- corporate tax and as individuals - income tax. Double layer taxation.
