Proprietary Firms
There is only one owner of the company called as "Proprietor". All the profits/loses were owned by the proprietor.
- These types of firms do not have a legal status and exists because the proprietor exists and will cease to exist once the proprietor cease to exists
- Since there is only one owner of the company therefore the capacity to raise funds and take complex decisions becomes limited.
- If there were loses then to meet those loses, a owner has to sell off his personal properties, since it's a unlimited liability firm.
- The income is always clubbed with the income of individuals and hence proprietor has to pay more taxes.
