Laura Cummings · Answer 1

d. a., b, and c. all result in the same amount of tax.

Explanation:

The question is to determine the form of business

First we need to understand some terms

A C Corporation refers to a standard corporation as far as the IRS is concerned while the S Coproration is a corporation with a special tax status giving it some tax privileges with the IRS. We however, group organisations as either C or S based on the taxation code with the Internal Revenue Service

It should be noted that C corporation, S corporation and partnership all aply the same rate of tax. The only place of advantage or difference is in the area of how the tax is treated and the difference in their liability.

As such, the owner in the question is being taxed based on the 32% bracket and as such it affects all the forms of business structures. Therefore, Partnership. C corporation and S corporation will asll result in the same amount of tax.
