The concept of business-to-business is quite ubiquitous in todays business world. It pertains to the commercial transactions between businesses. The transactions between a manufacturer and a wholesaler or between a wholesaler and a retailer are instances of business-to-business (B2B) commerce. A typical supply chain is characterized by a large number of B2B transactions in comparison to any other type of commercial transaction in the same supply chain. Going by the example of an automobile manufacturer that makes multiple B2B transactions, it procures tires, glass for windshields and other bits and pieces for its vehicles.

Owning a business in a competitive world needs more things than just courage to go ahead. First and foremost, the entrepreneur needs to understand the various formats of business, its investments requirements, implications, the taxation factors as well as returns expected. Business can be in the form of a sole proprietorship, a Limited liability company, an S Corporation or a C Corporation (which includes publicly-held companies).

One of the major advantage of organizing ones business as a Limited Liability Company (LLC) or an S corp. is that ones personal assets are protected from the creditors. Secondly, both LLCs and S corps help to avoid paying both personal and corporate taxes. However, the type of business determines the taxes and the payment methods. Business taxes in general are of four types- Income Tax, Self-Employment Tax, Employment Taxes and Excise Tax.

Sole proprietorships do not file a separate business tax return. The expenses and income (profit or loss) from the business are shown in the individual’s income tax return.
