As a company they are not registered with the state as a limited liability corporation or company. Being the owner they do not have to pay income tax separately for they only report income or loses or individual tax returns. Landscapers, housekeepers, and mom/pop stores are also examples of Sole Proprietorship. They also do not have to register with the state. Their income can be reported on their individual tax return, because they work alone. A partnership business example in my town would be the First Steps Daycare of Cuthbert Ga. The only daycare in town. A partnership is the type of business where multiple individuals, called general partners manage the business and are equally liable for its debts.

Examples of limited liability partnerships are Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, Deloitte, and Ernst & Young. The examples listed...

Unit introduction A business needs accurate and relevant information from internal and external sources in order to operate profitably. Proper collection of data creates an environment where informed decisions can be taken for the benefit of the business. In order to manage information effectively, there must be good communication systems within the organisation. Staff must possess good verbal and written skills in order to communicate and share information Business information can be used to obtain competitive advantage and promote efficiency. Organisations generate information internally, recording details of products manufactured, purchased and sold, and their associated costs. Businesses use information to manage not only what is currently happening in the organisation but also to plan for the future and ensure their survival. Information is collected, stored, manipulated, analysed and reported to those who need to use it. People need to become skilled manipulators and users of information to ensure organisations become more efficient and succeed in achieving their stated purposes. Since the...

...The Business Environment Unit 1/Assignment 1 Callum Whitehead Introduction In this assignment I am going to be describing the type, purpose and also ownership of two contrasting businesses. I will then look at stakeholders and look how they influence the businesses, look at how they are organised and explain how their style of the organisation helps to fulfil their purposes. Task 1 (Part A) My 2 contrasting organisations: 1. NHS 2. Microsoft Location – Explain different locations and give examples. Below are some types of locations within a business and how different they could become 1. Local: Local area/ Spilsby/ Spilsby theatre/ hair dressers/ local plumber. 2. Regional: Lincolnshire – based in this region, for example, swimming pools 3. National: UK, e.g. Morrison’s 4. International: only some businesses, for example, Tesco 5. Global: Most businesses, for example, McDonalds and Microsoft However, relating this to both of my contrasting organisations, NHS is more of a National Organisation as they are only working for people within the country as it is a government run Organisation. However, if I was to relate this to Microsoft then it would be different because Microsoft is a Global Organisation, they will produce their products to be sold to everyone. An example of this would be selling phones to people around the world and making money for the Organisation. This could lead to a rolling circuit. For example, if Microsoft was to...

...What constitutes a small business varies widely around the world. Small businesses are normally privately owned corporations, partnerships, or sole proprietorships. What constitutes "small" in terms of government support and tax policy varies by country and by industry, ranging from fewer than 15 employees under the Australian “Fair Work Act 2009”, 50 employees according to the definition used by the European Union, and fewer than 500 employees to qualify for many U.S. Small Business Administration programs, although in 2006 there were over 18,000 "small businesses" with over 500 employees that accounted for half of all the employees employed by all "small business". Small businesses can also be classified according to other methods such as sales, assets, or net profits. Small businesses are common in many countries, depending on the economic system in operation. Typical examples include: convenience stores, other small shops (such as a bakery or delicatessen), hairdressers, tradesmen, lawyers, accountants, restaurants, guest houses, photographers, small-scale manufacturing, and online business, such as web design and programming, etc. Characteristics of small businesses Size definitions The European Union generally defines a small business as one that has fewer than 50 employees. However, in Australia, a small business is defined by the “Fair Work Act 2009” as one with fewer than 15 employees. By comparison, a medium sized business or mid-sized business has under 500 employees...
