Sole proprietorship↑top

With this type of business organization, you would be fully responsible for all debts and obligations related to your business and all profits would be yours alone to keep. As a sole owner of the business, a creditor can make a claim against your personal or business assets to pay off any debt.

 

Advantages:

 

Easy and inexpensive to form a sole proprietorship (you will only need to register your business name provincially, except in Newfoundland and Labrador)

Relatively low cost to start your business

Lowest amount of regulatory burden

Direct control of decision making

Minimal working capital required to start-up

Tax advantages if your business is not doing well, for example, deducting your losses from your personal income, lower tax bracket when profits are low, and so on

All profits will go to you directly

Disadvantages:

 

Unlimited liability (if you have business debts, personal assets would be used to pay off the debt)

Income would be taxable at your personal rate and, if your business is profitable, this may put you in a higher tax bracket

Lack of continuity for your business, if you need to be absent

Difficulty raising capital on your own

2. Partnerships↑top

A partnership is a good business structure if you want to carry on a business with a partner and you do not wish to incorporate your business. With a partnership, financial resources are combined and put into the business. You can establish the terms of your business with your partner and protect yourself in case of a disagreement or dissolution by drawing up a specific business agreement. As partners, you would share in the profits of your business according to the terms of your agreement.

 

You may also be interested in a limited liability partnership in the business. This means that you would not take part in the control or management of the business, but would be liable for debts to a specified extent only.

 

When establishing a partnership, you should have a partnership agreement drawn up with the assistance of a lawyer, to ensure that:

 

You are protecting your interests

That you have clearly established the terms of the partnership with regards to issues like profit sharing, dissolving the partnership, and more

That you meet the legal requirements for a limited partnership (if applicable)

Advantages:

 

Easy to start-up a partnership

Start-up costs would be shared equally with you and your partner

Equal share in the management, profits and assets

Tax advantage, if income from the partnership is low or loses money (you and your partner include your share of the partnership in your individual tax return)

Disadvantages:

 

Similar to sole proprietorship, as there is no legal difference between you and your business

Unlimited liability (if you have business debts, personal assets would be used to pay off the debt)

Hard to find a suitable partner

Possible development of conflict between you and your partner

You are held financially responsible for business decisions made by your partner (for example, contracts that are broken)

Agree with the explanations given by Mr. Vinod Jetley.

In partnership it is a matter of identity of minds, if it is good .it is always better in clear format.
