easy to start- as a sole trader, you don't need basically any money to start. You don't need to employ anyone or buy any locations and no paper works needed to register, unlike big businesses.

you keep all the profits - because you're the owner, you are able to keep all the profits after you pay your employee, well that if you have one, and you don't have to share it with partners.

Disadvantages- 
you have unlimited liability - being the sole owner of the business you are liable for all the finances whether is having debt or making money. In this model, there is no difference between your personal and business assets.

more workload- you have all the responsibility for the business day to day business decisions and have to manage all the finances so this makes you more tired and gives you a heavier workload. ]]> 2022-11-24 02:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/20271009/ms2uy80bzhvd0oqk/wish/2396259868 Partnership - Edwin 202710151 https://padlet.com/20271009/ms2uy80bzhvd0oqk/wish/2396261732 -A partnership is the relationship of two or more 'partners' carrying out a business with a view to making a profit.

-An example of partnership between business is GoPro & Red Bull. GoPro doesn’t just sell portable cameras, and Red Bull doesn’t just sell energy drinks. Instead, both have established themselves as lifestyle brands — in particular, a lifestyle that’s action-packed, adventurous, fearless, and usually pretty extreme. These shared values make them a perfect pairing for co-branding campaigns, especially those surrounding action sports.

advantages - better and easier decision making - because in a partnership, multiple people are involved, you are able to split the workload and different people can bring in different views.

sharing your burdens - in a partnership you are able to share the burdens of starting a business with multiple people, for example you can share debts, finances, and profits.

Disadvantages - no independent legal status - a partnership business has no legal existence. this means the business can easily be dissolved if one of the partners resigns or dies.

unlimited liability - in a partnership all the partners are liable for all the business's finances and capital, and because all partners are connected together, sometimes you end up paying for the other partner's debt or share when the business is doing bad.

A public limited company is normally a big company.

Two examples of Public limited companies are Tencent and Apple. 

Two advantages of a Public limited company:
1. Limited liability
The debts and liability of the company are separated from the shareholders of the company. This is where the shareholders don't need to afford the debts for the company or don't need to be responsible for the company's actions.
2. Stable structure
If the shareholders leave the company, or the director leaves the company, it does not cause the company to cease operations.

Disadvantages
high costs - The firm has to hire an investment bank and a securities lawyer. The banker then offers the initial shares to the public （IPO） this process can cost a lot to be put in place.

takeovers - sense because you are offering shares to the public then someone can buy a large amount of shares, giving them a large say in the board of directors making the company more vulnerable to takeovers.

A private limited company can be of small-scale or medium-scale. Due to the involvement of several owners, it has greater operational flexibility.

- Two examples of Private limited companies are the  Dyson Limited & Bosch.

-  Two advantages of Private Limited companies are

  • Separate Legal Entity - The assets and liabilities of a Private Limited Company are distinct from those of the Directors since the company has its own legal identity in the eyes of the law. They both count differently. Because Management and Ownership are divided in a Private Limited Company, managers are accountable for both the company's success and failure. 
  • Limited liability- Finances for the business are kept entirely separate from personal holdings. This is so that a corporation, which is governed by its directors and owned by its shareholders, can operate as a separate legal entity. This indicates that the corporation owns the assets, profits, and liabilities. The director and shareholder are only liable for the amount of money they invested if the company encounters financial difficulties. 

- Two disadvantages of Private Limited companies are

  • Formalities may take times- Private companies require less paperwork and formalities to be followed, but the process can still be challenging for individuals who don't use professionals or business consultants to help with the registration. You could need a professional to complete the task if you don't have the necessary knowledge.
  • Limited personal control- An individual will have less control over a private corporate entity if there are several investors and owners. Due to other stakeholders' equal rights and power in the decision-making process, personal control is also weakened.
