Why do many business owners prefer corporations over other forms of business organization?
If a business is a sole proprietorship (one owner) or a partnership (more than one owner) and it fails financially then the owners can be liable for the debts of the business. This means that any assets (houses, cars, personal bank accounts) can be seized and sold to satisfy the creditors of the business. However, if the business is incorporated (Inc.) then if it fails only the assets held by the corporation itself can be attached. The "officers" of the corporation (usually the true owners) are not liable for the debt as long as they did not do anything illegal within the framework of the business/corporate contract. So by incorporating the owner is protecting his personal assets as separate from the business.
