Summary Introduction

Case study:

E incorporation is a small company founded by Person T and Person J. They are the manufacturers of integral circuits to capitalize on the complex mixed-signal design technology. Recently, the company decided to include motherboards, PC peripheral devices, and other digital consumer electronics.

In addition to T and J, Person N who provided the capital of the company, became the third primary owner. Each of them owns 25% of 1 million shares outstanding.
