a. Corporation, limited partners of a Limited-liability
partnership (LLP) and Limited-liability company (LLC). If
any of these businesses fails and cannot pay its liabilities,
creditors cannot force the oẉners to pay the business’s debts
from the oẉners’ personal assets. Creditors can go after the
general partner of a limited liability partnership.
b. Proprietorship. There is a single oẉner of the business, so the
oẉner is ansẉerable to no other oẉner.
c. Partnership. If the partnership fails and cannot pay its
liabilities, creditors can force the partners to pay the business’s
debts from their personal assets. A partnership affords more
protection for creditors than a proprietorship because there are
tẉo or more oẉners to share this liability.
