LLC Versus C Corp: What Is It?

An LLC is a business entity that is legally separate from its owners, who are known as "members." An LLC can have one member or many members.

A C Corporation refers to any corporation taxed separately from its owners. Unlike S Corporations, taxing of C Corporations occurs twice, once on the earnings and again on the salaries of the owners.

Similarities of an LLC and an S Corp

LLCs and S Corps have several similarities:

  • Limited liability protection. In both an LLC and an S Corp, owners are not personally responsible for business debts or liabilities.
  • Separate entities. LLCs and S Corps are separate legal entities formed through a state filing.
  • Pass-through taxation.

What is a Sole Proprietorship?

A sole proprietorship is a business with a single owner. It is the dream for many people. These businesses, which are not registered as an LLC (limited liability company), a partnership, or a corporation, have the benefit of flexibility. Sole proprietors can work as freelancers — independent contractors — or they can run physical, on-the-ground businesses. 

Often, home-based businesses are sole proprietorships. There are 23 million of these in operation today, vastly more than any other traditional forms. This sort of business carries dangers with it, and it's important to understand them so you can avoid pitfalls in bookkeeping, taxes, and other potential liabilities.

  • Essential elements of reverse vesting agreements include cliffs, repurchase rights, and accelerated vesting clauses.
  • The practice benefits investors, attracts funding, and maintains founder alignment with company goals.
  • Reverse vesting agreements must balance fairness and tax implications for founders and companies.

Reverse Vesting: What Is It?

Reverse vesting occurs when a company's co-founder receives his or her shares and ownership interest upfront. This exchange is subject to vesting similar to employee stock options. If the co-founder leaves, the company may repurchase a set amount of those shares.
