Explanation of Solution

A limited liability company(LLC) would be liable to pay tax as a partnership firm unless it itself declares to be taxed as a corporation. Any LLC which consists of at least two members have the option to choose between a corporation or a partnership taxation.

In this case, both parties have not declared to be taxed as a corporation. Therefore, they will be taxed as a partnership. In a partnership agreement, the profits are transferred through the partners or members who are laible to pay taxes on the profit generated.
