    Correct Answer
    A. S-Corporation
    Explanation
    An S-Corporation is a type of US corporation where the firm's income is passed through its shareholders in proportion to their investment and taxed at personal income tax rates. This type of corporation can have only one type of stock and a limited number of stockholders. Unlike a C-Corporation, an S-Corporation avoids double taxation as the income is not taxed at the corporate level. Instead, it is taxed only at the individual shareholder level. This structure allows small businesses to benefit from the limited liability protection of a corporation while enjoying the tax advantages of a partnership.

C-Corps are separate legal entities from their owners, which means that owners are not personally liable for the company's debts or legal obligations. Additionally, C-Corps have the advantage of being able to issue different classes of stock, which makes it easier to attract investors and raise capital.
