4. Business is the activity of making
one's living or making money by
producing or buying and selling
products (such as goods and
services). Simply put, it is "any
activity or enterprise entered
into for profit. It does not mean
it is a company, a corporation,
partnership, or have any such
formal organization, but it can
range from a street peddler to
General Motors.

5. If one is planning to start a
business or is interested in
expanding an existing one, an
important decision relates to
the choice of form of
organization. The most
appropriate form is
determined by weighing the
advantages and disadvantages
of each type of organization
against one’s own
requirement.

7. The sole proprietorship is the simplest
business form under which one can
operate a business. The sole
proprietorship is not a legal entity. It
simply refers to a person who owns the
business and is personally responsible
for its debts. A sole proprietorship can
operate under the name of its owner
or it can do business under a fictitious
name, such as Nancy's Nail Salon. The
fictitious name is simply a trade name -
it does not create a legal entity
separate from the sole proprietor
owner.

8. Having control of your business -
Since you are the only owner of a sole
proprietorship, you are in complete control
of your business.
Simplified and Less Costly
Organization - There are no forms
to complete, and no government fees
to pay, to form a business as a sole
proprietorship.

9. Privacy -Since a sole proprietorship
does not file any formation documents or
annual reports with the federal or state
governments, your business operations
are not subject to public disclosure like
an LLC or corporation.
Minimal to No
Reporting
Requirements- A sole
proprietorship does not need to file
an annual report with the state or
federal governments.

10. Organizing your business as a sole
proprietorship has several advantages.
However, this decision should take into
consideration all of your circumstances,
including whether you will need others to invest
in your business, your personal asset protection
needs, and your tax situation.

11. Management Problems - A
business can be efficiently run by
professional managers. They
perform specialized functions such
as keeping inventories, accounting
and maintaining tax records.
Limited Financial
Resources - Another
disadvantage of this type of
business is the strict limitation on
its ability to acquire capital for
expansion.

12. Limited Life Span- If the sole
proprietor dies, becomes
physically unfit, or retires the
business ceases to exist (unless it
is sold to an outsider or taken over
by the heirs of the sole proprietor)

13. The amount of capital that
a person can invest in a
business is limited.
Moreover, he cannot get
unlimited credit. Thus, the
scope of growth is limited
and the business will
remain smaller.
Any person is not equipped to own and competent
enough manage a business. Often it is difficult tosave
enough money to start a business and carry it on. Itis
very difficult, at times, for a single person to cover
the costs of inventory (raw materials), insurance,
advertising, rent, computers and so on.

14. Joint Hindu Family Business is a
different type of organization,
which is found only in India. As the
name suggests, it is type of
organization in which all the
members
of Hindu Undivided Family manage
and control the business with the
direction of head of the family. It
is not a Partnership.

15. Effective control - The decision
making power lies only with the Karta and no
other member has the right to interfere in his
decision. Thus, the Karta can take prompt and
flexible decisions that ensure effective control
in the organisation.
Limited liability of members -
Except the Karta, the liability of othermembers
is limited to the extent of their share in the
business.

16. The operation of the business is not
threatened by the death, insanity or
imprisonment of the Karta because in the
eventuality of any mishappening with the
Karta, the next eldest member takes up his
position.
Increased loyalty and
cooperation - In a Joint Hindu Family
Business, chances of great coordination
among the members are more because they
all belong to the same family. Hence,
chances of loyalty towards business are
more as compared to other forms of
organisations

17. Unlimited liability
of Karta - The liability
of the karta is unlimited but
the liability of co-partners is
limited. The karta is liable
to pay the dues even from
his personnel property.
Unlimited liability makes
him more cautions and he
may not take any risk.

18. business does suffer from the limitation of
capital. This is because the business has to
depend upon the savings of the family.
Again, limited amount of borrowings is
possible from friends, banks and others.
No entry for non
family members - Only
family members can get entry into
the business. Outsiders are not
allowed to interfere in the family
business. So there is less scope for
increasing the capital of family
members.

19. Limited Growth and
Expansion - The investment of
the joint Hindu family business is
limited. Growth and expands is
possible only when there is large
investment. But the liability of the
Karta is unlimited. Hence, there is
less scope for Growth and
expansion.
Like Sole trading concern, the Joint Hindu
family business lacks legal status. The
registration of this type of business is not
compulsory. The members and the firm do
not have separate entity.

20. A partnership is an arrangement
where parties, known as business
partners, agree to cooperate to
advance their mutual interests.
The partners in a partnership may
be individuals, businesses,
interest-based organizations,
schools, governments or
combinations.

21. ON BASIS OF DURATION
 Partnership at will
 Particular partnership
ON BASIS OF LIABILITY
 General partnership
 Limited partnership

22. two heads (or more) are better
than one
your business is easy to establish
and start-up costs are low
more capital is available for the
business
you’ll have greater borrowing
capacity

23. high-calibre employees canbe
made partners
there is opportunity forincome
splitting, an advantage of
particular importance due to
resultant tax savings
partners’ business affairsare
private
there is limitedexternal
regulation
it’s easy to change your legal
structure later if circumstances
change

24. the liability of the partners for the
debts of the business is unlimited
each partner is ‘jointly and
severally’ liable for the
partnership’s debts; that is, each
partner is liable for their share of
the partnership debts as well as
being liable for all the debts

25. there is a risk of disagreements
and friction among partners and
management
each partner is an agent of the
partnership and is liable for
actions by other partners
if partners join or leave, you
will probably have to value all
the partnership assets and this
can be costly.

26. 1932
THE INDIAN PARTNERSHIPACT’
1932 Section.4 of the Indian
Partnership Act, 1932
defines Partnership in the following
terms: “ Partnership is the relation
between persons
who have agreed to share the
profits of a business carried on by
all or any of them
acting for all.”

27. A cooperative is "an autonomous
association of persons united voluntarily to
meet their common economic, social, and
cultural needs and aspirations through a
jointly-owned enterprise“. Cooperative
businesses are typically more
economically resilient than many other
forms of enterprise, with twice the number
of co-operatives (80%) surviving their first
five years compared with other
business ownership models

29. EQUALITY IN VOTING
STATUS – The principle of one
man vote governs the cooperative
society.
LIMITED LIABILTY – The
liability of members of a
cooperative society is limited to
extent of their capital
contribution

30. bankruptcy or insanity of a member do
not affect a cooperative society
ECONOMY IN OPERATION –
The member often provide honorary
services to the society.
EASE OF FORMATION – The
registration procedure is simple
involving few formalities. The formation
is governed by the provisions of

31. LIMITED RESOURCES – The
resources of cooperative society consists
of capital contribution of members with
limited resources
GOVERNMENT CONTROL – In
return of the privileges offered by the
govt. the cooperative society has to comply
with various rules and regulations

32. Internal quarrels arising as as a result
of contrary viewpoints may lead to
difficulty in decision making.
LACK OF SECRECY – Due toopen
discussions in meeting it’s difficult to
maintain secrecy about the operation
of cooperative society.
INEFFICIENCY IN
MANAGEMENT – Cooperative
societies are unable to employ expert
management because of their inability
to pay high salaries.

33. A joint-stock company is a business
entity in which shares of the
company's stock can be bought and
sold by shareholders. Each
shareholder owns company stock in
proportion, evidenced by
their shares (certificates of
ownership). Shareholders are able to
transfer their shares to others
without any effects to the continued
existence of the company

34. PRIVATE COMPANY OWNED BY INDIVIDUAL OF GROUP OF INDIVIDUAL
• MINIMUM 2 TO MAXIMUM 200 MEMBERS
PUBLIC COMPANY OWNED BY THEGOVERNMENT
• MINIMUM 7 TO MAXIMUM UNLIMITED MEMBERS

35. •Large Capital- The outstanding advantage is that it allows vast
mobilization of capital which otherwise is not possible to arrange. In a
public company, there is no limit to the number of members.
• Vast Scope of Expansion- The vast capital collected by
means of shares coupled with the earnings of the company contribute
sufficient scope for its expansion. The company offers an excellent scope of
self-generating growth.

36. Limited Liability- The liability of
the members of the company is limited.
Members cannot be called upon to pay
anything more than the nominal value ofthe
shares held by them.
Permanent Existence-
The life of the company does not dependon
the life of its members. Law creates the
company and can dissolve it.
Transferability of Shares-
The shares in a company are transferable and
members can transfer their shares without the
consent of other members of the company.

37. Delay in Decision-Making- In this form of
organisation, decisions are not made by single individual. All
important decisions are taken by the Board ofDirectors.
Decision-making process is time-consuming.
Fraudulent Management- Frauds have been a
common feature of many a company. The promoters and
directors may indulge in fraudulent practices. The company
law has devised various methods to check the fraudulent
practices but they have not proved to check them
completely.

38. This form of organisation encourages reckless
speculation in shares at stock exchanges. This is an
evil of great magnitude in our country because in
many cases stock exchanges act as ‘bush agencies’,
rather than aid to sound investment or stability.
Monopolistic Powers- There is, generally,
tendency for company organisation to form
themselves into combinations exercising
monopolistic powers which may react detrimentally
to other producers in the same line or to
consumers of the commodity produced.
Excessive Regulation by Law- The
State that creates the company, minutely watches
the activities of the company organisation. A
company and the management have to function
well within the law and the provisions of
Companies Act are quite elaborate and complex.
