The most common business structures include the following:

• Sole proprietorship: This type of business only has one owner, thus when it comes time to filing taxes, the owner's business earnings are reported on their personal tax return.
• Partnership: Similar to a sole proprietorship, both owners report business earnings on their personal tax returns, and paperwork need not be filed to form a partnership.
• Limited partnership: Under this structure, there is one partner who controls most of the operations, in addition to limited partners who have some control over the business.
• Corporation and LLC: While typically more expensive than a partnership or sole proprietorship, under these models, owners are given certain protections from business debt and court judgments associated with the business.
• Nonprofit corporation: This model is reserved for businesses that are created for the purposes of education, religion, charity, or scientific research.
