Buy-Sell Agreement?
Get StartedThe Buy-Sell Agreement is an agreement among business owners. It has several primary purposes. First, owners of a small business often wish to limit who can become a new co-owner. For example, they may not want spouses or children of their fellow co-owners to become owners. Without a buy-sell agreement, this type of transfer could occur if a co-owner dies or gets divorced. Thus, the Buy-Sell Agreement includes a general prohibition on the sale or transfer of ownership interests, except under the specific circumstances specified in the agreement.Second, owners of a small business may wish to "create a market" for the sale or transfer of their ownership interests. In the absence of a buy-sell agreement, owners may find that they have very few opportunities to sell out if there are important reasons why they might wish to sell, such as death or retirement. Therefore, the Buy-Sell Agreement provides a mechanism for the purchase of the interest of an owner who retires, dies, becomes disabled, or simply wishes to sell to someone else. If the sale or transfer results from retirement or death, the other owners (or the company) are obligated to purchase the ownership interest. In contrast, if an owner simply wants to withdraw, the other owners may exercise an option to purchase the withdrawing owner's shares to prevent them from being sold to an outsider, but it is up to the withdrawing owner to find an outside buyer.Third, the Buy-Sell Agreement specifies the mechanism for determining the purchase price. It also sets forth terms for how the purchase price will be paid. Owners often believe that they can resolve these issues as the circumstances arise. However, they may discover to their dismay at a later point, that "selling" owners do not have the same perspective on fair price as owners who wish to remain.Funding of the payment of the purchase price of a withdrawing Owner is handled by requiring the Owners to purchase life insurance on each other. This works well if the withdrawal occurs because of death. For other situations, the Buy-Sell Agreement allows the remaining Owners to pay over a period of time on an installment basis.Ideally, the Buy-Sell Agreement should be made and signed when the Company is formed (if the business will have more than one owner) or when it will first have more than one owner (if the business begins as a one-owner business). Generally, any disputes under the Buy-Sell Agreement should be handled under the laws of the state where the Company is located.
What is a sole trader?
A sole trader is one type of business organization. Or I would say a sole trader is among the many types of organization that exist in a business environment. If you are a sole trader, it means that you own the business, and any profits from the business belongs to you. It's important to know that there are other types of business organizations like partnership or limited companies. A partnership is where you and another partner owns the business. ( it may not necessarily be 50% each, it depends on the agreement of each partner ). Limited companies on the other hand, are companies that can offer shares to raise capital. Although this is complicated, you need to understand that while sole trader can earn all the profits, it will face difficulties in raising funds for expansion, that's the reason limited companies are formed, they can raise funds from the public.

What is an informal alliance with business owners who produce a similar product called?
Instead of buying up companies that produced similar products, some company owners formed informal alliances called cartels with other business owners who produced a similar product. As a cartel or pool, they could agree to limit the supply of the product and drive prices up. They would also agree to divide market areas so that each member of the cartel would prosper. Business owners could also form trust agreements with other business owners who owned a majority of stock in a similar product. When a business man owned stock in a company, he owned a percentage of the company. Therefore, as a trust, they could work together to limit competition.
What is a share of stocks?
The stock of a business is divided into multiple shares, the total of which must be stated at the time of business formation. Given the total amount of money invested in the business, a share has a certain declared face value, commonly known as the par value of a share. The par value is the de minimis (minimum) amount of money that a business may issue and sell shares for in many jurisdictions and it is the value represented as capital in the accounting of the business. In other jurisdictions, however, shares may not have an associated par value at all. Such stock is often called non-par stock. Shares represent a fraction of ownership in a business. A business may declare different types (classes) of shares, each having distinctive ownership rules, privileges, or share values.Ownership of shares is documented by issuance of a stock certificate. A stock certificate is a legal document that specifies the amount of shares owned by the shareholder, and other specifics of the shares, such as the par value, if any, or the class of the shares.
