The Corporation and Financial Markets
ru ru ru ru




1-
1. r A corporation is a legal entity separate from its owners. This means ownership shares in the c
u r u r u ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru

orporation can be freely traded. None of the other organizational forms share this characteristic.
ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru

2. r Owners’ liability is limited to the amount they invested in the firm. Shareholders are not responsi
u r u ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru

ble for any encumbrances of the firm; in particular, they cannot be required to pay back any debts incurr
ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru

ed by the firm.

for the limited partners, but not for the general partners.

tment trust (REIT) does not pay corporate taxes but must pass through substantially all of the income to
ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru

the trust unit holders to whom it is taxable.
ru ru ru ru ru ru ru ru




1-6. r u r u First, the corporation pays the taxes. After taxes, $2 × (1 –

paid, leaving $1.32 × (1 –
ru ru ru ru ru

0.18) = $1.0824 per share. So after all the taxes are paid, you are left with $1.0824 per share.
