  • What is the difference between a C Corp and S Corp? How are C Corps taxed? How are S Corps taxed?
    A C Corp is a separate taxpayer, with income and expenses taxed to the corporation and not owners. You can elect S corporation status by filing a form with the IRS and with your state as it is more attractive for small-business owners. Once applicable, the profits, losses and other tax items pass through the corporation to you and are reported on your personal tax return This is considered a flow-through entity.
    Both S and C Corps;
    - Offer limited liability protection
    - Require articles of incorporation
    - Can offer a way to sell equity
    S Corps are different;
    - They have a 75 shareholder limit (for businesses started before 2004) and a 100 shareholder limit for those started after 2004
    - No corporate taxed is paid which can save owners a lot of money

    Quick clarification, for S Corps, the 75 shareholder limit exists for businesses that were incorporated before 2004. Any business started after that year has a 100 shareholder limit under S Corp status. Thanks for watching!

    • @financekid3163
      @financekid3163  6 лет назад +3

      Yes you can. Traditionally, however, owners convert from C to S. But there is no limit, its just a type of qualification awarded by the IRS.

    This is a nice explanation but if you use the actual tax brackets you will see corporate tax is significantly less than the normal income tax for people with high incomes. Which means even though the money is taxed twice you can still end up paying less in taxes with c corps

    Most people who own C-corps are employees of the business and have W2 income from that business. I'm the president of my C-Corp, I have never taken a Dividend so double taxation isn't an issue. I pay myself a salary, and my board of directors (myself) issues me a bonus (most of the profit, which then becomes an operating expense) if we are having a great year. It would be really nice to see a youtube video that demonstrates this vs a s-corp election.

    1. GREAT VID!
    2. Quick question- In your C-CORP example, where does the $50,000 in earnings come from? I understand the net income being 70k, and dividends 50k, leaving a retained amount of $20k, but I get lost when entering the Personal Tax Form section.

    • @robertthomasdaniel
      @robertthomasdaniel 5 лет назад

      Sir J the dividend of $50k is also the personal earnings figure. The Retained Earnings are what’s stays in the business. And the $50k is what you would pay yourself (as the owner) in dividends. Thus making it your personal earnings.

    @justtryanother7290 3 года назад

    It makes sense to me, the S corp flow through is perfect for a small business with a limited amount of owners to avoid unnecessary taxes, where as the C corp is for much larger scale companies with 100,000’s of people so you might be taxed more but make 50,000,000 out of billions of dollars that you otherwise wouldn’t have had the chance to do because of the limited number of shares making it impossible to scale vs the S corp being seemly just for a few private owners to take advantage of tax cuts.
