Introduction: Partnership forms when two or more persons thrive to achieve the same objective as a business. The only difference between a partnership and a corporation is that later will enjoy benefits of limited liability but faces dual taxation first at the corporate level and second at the shareholders level, whereas partners are taxed only at partners level.
