What is the difference between a c corp and a s corp?
C vs S is an election made by a corporation in regards to how it wants to be taxed. A C corporation files a tax return and pays tax based on corporate tax rates. An S corporation files a tax return; however, the profit or loss passes through to the owner or partners personal tax return and tax is paid at the personal rate. Obviously, only a private closely held corporation can elect S status. The state tax treatment for an S-corp may be different than the federal treatment. You could have a corporation which has elected S status for federal taxes and C status for state taxes. The subchapter-S election is merely a tax classification, not a legal entity formation difference.

Can an Subchapter S Corporation own a C Corporation?
Yes, it is called a QSub or Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiary. It must meet the requirements delineated in the code and regulations, and make the proper election. This allows for two seperate corporate entities, which is often desirable for legal purposes. For tax purposes, the activity of the QSub is combined with the parent on one tax return, so they are essentially a single entity for tax purposes.
What is the difference in a closed corporation and an S corporation?
A closely held company is one in which all shares of stock are owned by a small number of people (often related to each other), and a Subchapter S corporation is one that conforms to that subchapter of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, including closely held corporations (with additional restrictions on nationality, number of shareholders, etc). The benefit of an S-corp is that the entitity income is not taxed separately from the income of the shareholders, so you don't pay income taxes twice. There is certainly no obligation for a close corporation to file for S-corp status, and there may be good reasons not to (e.g., foreign investors).
