Question

Which of the following type of organization is classified as a partnership, or similar to a partnership, for tax purposes? (I.) Limited Liability Company (II.) Limited Liability Partnership (III.) Subchapter S Corporation

Answer 1

(II.) Limited Liability Partnership

Step-by-step explanation:

While the Limited Liability Company represents a sole proprietorship where the liabilities are restricted to business value only.

An Limited Liability Partnership is not taxed twice, once at the business level and again at the personal level, the way a C corporation is. Which means that the profits and losses are shared equally among partners for at least tax purposes

Answer 2

The answer for the type of organization classified as a partnership, or similar to a partnership, for tax purposes is option (II.) Limited Liability Partnership

Step-by-step explanation:

Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) are a flexible legal and tax entity that allows partners to benefit from economies of scale by working together while also reducing their liability for the actions of other partners.

Having business partners means spreading the risk, leveraging individual skills and expertise, and establishing a division of labor.

Limited liability means that if the partnership fails, creditors cannot go after a partner's personal assets or income.

This kind of partnership is common in Law firms.
