Explanation:

Legally, a corporation is a distinct entity separate from its owners. It has commercial rights to transact businesses, enter into contracts, and own properties. A corporation is a legal person and is subject to taxation; it can sue or be sued.

One distinctive aspect of a corporation is that its owners have limited liability to the debts of the business. If the company is unable to meet its obligations, the personal properties of owners cannot be attached to the debts. The owners of Relaxant Inc. will be exposed to less liability when they are shareholders as compared to when they were partners.  The liability of an individual shareholder is limited to the amount of their capital contribution
