Sole proprietorships and partnerships are generally taxed as pass-through entities, meaning that the income is reported on the owners' personal tax returns, avoiding corporate taxation. In contrast, corporations are taxed separately at the corporate tax rate, and any dividends distributed to shareholders may be subject to additional taxation, resulting in double taxation.
