Who are typically the number one and two in a company/corporation?

admin — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 06:26:17 +0000

I ask this because there are so many corporate titles that it gets confusing. I know that their is a chairman of the board then CEO…..but some companies have titles of President and Vice President and sometimes the chairman is also president and the CEO is vice president. Please help me out.

Truth is that you can call the CEO/President the Headman, the Bambambam or what have you. I don’t know if you get my drift, but it means it’s arbitrary. Check CEO in Wikipedia about it; it WILL help you in clearing this.

Will there be a corporation tax for the year if a company has no profit but loss?

admin — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 02:54:22 +0000

Most companies pay corporation tax to the government because they gain profit from their operation which is I think 20% of the profit. Am I right for me to say that companies who incurred loss has nothing to pay?

I would agree to that, there are prophets in the bible and then there are profits in business.

What do you people think of this China company Agria Corporation?

admin — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 22:15:16 +0000

This company just launched a new corn seed which will sell well to much of mainland China. The stock (GRO) went up more than .30 cents today.

Can anyone give me some feedback as to how they think this stock will fare? It’s currently at 1.88 a share and was once close to $16 a share.

Corn is massively over planted in China at the moment and there are new brands of seed coming onto the market all the time. Once one person does something in China, you can reasonably expect half the population to follow shortly. That often leads to an over surplus and a drop in price.

If a company/corporation invested on your company would your business be automatically be on the stock market?

admin — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 15:13:35 +0000

Just curious if your business automatically enters in the stock market?

No, unless the below happened, no

Getting your company on the stock market requires a process called underwriting. Underwriting is when an investment bank goes out and attempts to get investors to purchase the securities (stock) of your company. It is through this underwriting procedure that a company goes from being private to being publicly traded on one of the stock markets.

What does a "recruiting corporation/company " do?

admin — Mon, 09 May 2011 05:00:21 +0000

have heard of a Recruiting Company..and was curious what this is and what it does? how profitable?

when this idea came about? and why?

anything can explain appreciated.

They are an outsourced (contracting out) service for HR department. I.e, you don’t have to employ a HR Manager in your firm. You just have to specify what you need (in terms of employee) to the recruiting company, and they do it for you. The service include job advertisement, selection, interview, .. the whole process.

Of course, there is a fee to pay. Initially, the fee may seem huge; but in the long term, you’ll save in terms of the salary not paid to a HR Manager.

Besides, you can concentrate more on your own production/service.

Another advantage, is that the recruiting companies have high-calibre professionals. These companies have access to a wider population, therefore recruiting the best for you.

More and more firms prefer to outsource than to have their own HR Dept, as this is cost saving. As a result, the market for recruiting companies are becoming larger; therefore increasing revenue and profitability.

whats the difference between a firm, company, corporation?

Firm is a relative term. A Corporation is its own taxing entity. A Company can be a Corp. but does not have to be so.

How does a corporation make money through an IPO if 100% of the company is already owned?

admin — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 18:28:23 +0000

I still don’t understand how a company or corporation raises capital through issuing shares.

For example: If I own 100% of the company and it makes $100 million dollars a year but I want to expand the company globally and need capital to do so, how does issuing share or having the company go public bring money into the company? Don’t I, as owner of 100% of the company collect on any shares sold to others?

I still dont understand how the company gets some of that money.

You ask a great question. There are a number of reasons that companies go public: get liquidity for owners, raise additional capital in public markets, have public stock as a currency for acquisitions, etc.

In the situation you describe, you wouldn’t raise any additional capital if you’re only selling shares you already own in the public offering. Only you, the owner, would receive capital from the IPO.

In most IPOs, however, additional shares are issued to raise additional capital. Let’s say your 100% ownership is 10 million shares ($10 a piece). In an IPO, you want to raise $25 million. You would issue 2.5 million additional shares in the IPO at $10 a share to receive $25 million when they are issued. You could also sell some of your own shares, but that money would come directly to you rather than into the company.

The $25 million raised would come in as cash to the company and would be used to create more value for the company. Here is more detail on how the process plays out:

What is the life span of an australian corporation/company?

An Australian company ‘lives’ until it is closed down (voluntarily or due to liquidation). As long as everything goes well an Australian company can live forever.

What subjects should I do at school and university if I want to become the CEO of a corporation/company?

admin — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 13:23:33 +0000

School and University courses if you know them.

CEO’s are elected by the board of directors – you can’t just walk in and apply for it

For future preparation and a good background along with lots of experience would be

BS (or Masters) in Business Administration + going to law school would certainly be

an asset in qualifications – EXPERIENCE is the most valuable determination –

a CEO consideration would be 10 15 years down the road

Shareholder buys a computer for a firm, computer company found out that no corporation exists?

admin — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 14:51:18 +0000

Lorraine, Tandy, and Dean decide to incorporate their detective agency, but fail to follow proper procedure. They sell stock to Darrell and persuade him to become a corporate officer. Darrell purchases a computer for thr firm. When the computer company discovers that no corporation exists, it attempts to hold lovett liable for the amount due, What doctrine may Darrell use to protect himself?

He is on weak ground. He can claim that the shareholders employed him as an officer of the company and he carried out his duties in good faith. However he should have had good reason to believe the company actually existed to justify his position.
