public corporation
A business owned by a small pool of investors is typically classified as a private company or private corporation. These investors may include individuals, families, or a small group of partners, and they often have a significant degree of control over the company's operations and decision-making. Unlike public companies, private companies do not sell shares to the general public, which allows for more privacy and fewer regulatory requirements.
There are many types of business and their respective features. One business is the grocery store and one of its features is that it sells food.
The term that refers to a type of business owned by stockholders is a "corporation." In a corporation, ownership is divided into shares of stock, and stockholders have the right to vote on important company matters and receive dividends based on their shareholdings. Corporations can be publicly traded on stock exchanges or privately held.
The four basic patterns of a business ownership are sole proprietorship, partnership, C corporation, and the S corporation. In a sole proprietor ship the business is owned by one person. That one person is taxed for the business and there is unlimited liability on that one person. In a partnership, the business is owned by two or more people by a contract. Depending on the type of partnership liability may or may not be unlimited. The corporation is a separate and legal entity. There is separated taxation and limited liability. The corporation will continue on, even after the death of the owners. In corporations there are shareholders, directors, officers, and employees. It is much more difficult to form a corporation. A C corporation is public; meanwhile, an S corporation is very similar to a partnership.
