Task 3
3.1 Reading: Answer the following questions according to the text.
A corporation
A corporation is an organization led by many people but treated by the law as though it were a person. It own property, pay taxes, make contracts, sue and be sued, and so on. It has a separate and distinct existence from the stockholders who own the corporation’s stock. Stock represents ownership rights to a certain portion of the profits and assets of the company that issues the stock. In terms of the amount of business done (measured in dollars), the corporation is the most important type of business organization in the United States today. In order to form a corporation, its founders must do three things. First, they must register their company with the government of the state in which it will be headquartered. Second, they must sell stock. Third, along with the other shareholders, they must elect a board of directors. Registering the Corporation. Every state has laws governing the formation of corporations, but most state laws are similar. Suppose that you and your partners decide to form a corporation. You will have to file articles of incorporation application with the state in which you will run your corporation. In general, these articles include four items: 1. Name, address, and purpose of the corporation; 2. Names and addresses of the initial board of directors (these men and women will serve until the first stockholders’ meeting, when a new board may be elected); 3. Number of shares of stock to be issued; 4. Amount of money capital to be raised through issuing stock. If the articles are in agreement with state law, the state will grant you a corporate charter - a license to operate from that state. Selling Stock. To continue the example of your electronic repair business, you could sell shares of either common or preferred stock in your new corporation. Common stock gives the holder part ownership in the corporation and voting rights at the annual stockholders’ meeting. It does not guarantee a dividend - money return on the money invested in a company’s stock. Preferred stock does guarantee a certain amount of dividend each year. Preferred stock also guarantees to the stockholder first claim, after creditors have been paid, on whatever value is left in the corporation if it goes out of business. Holders of preferred stock usually do not have voting rights in the corporation, although they are part owners. If your corporation were to become large, you might find its stock traded in the local stock market as over-the-counter stock. Over-the-counter means that individual brokerage 53 firms hold quantities of shares of stocks that they buy and sell for investors. Should your corporation continue to grow, it would be traded on a regional stock exchange. It might be listed as an over-the-counter stock with the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation (NASDAQ) in one of their three lists. The largest corporations are usually listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Naming a Board of Directors. To become incorporated, a company must have a board of directors. You and your partners, as founders of the corporation, would select the first board for your corporation. After that stockholders at their annual stockholders’ meetings would elect the board. The bylaws of the corporation govern this election. Bylaws are a set of rules describing how stock will be sold and dividends paid, with a list of the duties of the company’s officers. They are written after the corporate charter has been granted. The board is responsible for supervising and controlling the corporation. It does not run business operations on a day-to-day basis, however. Rather, it hires officers for the company - president, vice-president(s) secretary, and treasurer - to run the business and hire other employees.
