Business
A business, also known as an enterprise, agency or a firm, is an entity involved in the provision of goods and/or services to consumers.
 Businesses are prevalent in capitalist economies, where most of them are privately owned and provide goods and services to customers
 in exchange for other goods, services, or money. Businesses may also be social not-for-profit enterprises or state-owned public enterprises
 targeted for specific social and economic objectives. A business owned by multiple individuals may be formed as an incorporated company
 or jointly organised as a partnership. Countries have different laws that may ascribe different rights to the various business entities.

Business can refer to a particular organization or to an entire market sector, e.g. "the music business". Compound forms such as agribusiness 
represent subsets of the word's broader meaning, which encompasses all activity by suppliers of goods and services. The goal is for sales to be
 more than expenditures resulting in a profit.


Basic forms of ownership
Forms of business ownership vary by jurisdiction, but several common forms exist:

Sole proprietorship: A sole proprietorship, also known as a sole trader, is owned by one person and operates for their benefit. The owner may 
operate the business alone or with other people. A sole proprietor has unlimited liability for all obligations incurred by the business, whether from 
operating costs or judgements against the business. All assets of the business belong to a sole proprietor, including, for example, computer infrastructure,
 any inventory, manufacturing equipment and/or retail fixtures, as well as any real property owned by the business.
Partnership: A partnership is a business owned by two or more people. In most forms of partnerships, each partner has unlimited liability for the debts 
incurred by the business. The three most prevalent types of for-profit partnerships are general partnerships, limited partnerships, and limited liability partnerships.
Corporation: The owners of a corporation have limited liability and the business has a separate legal personality from its owners. Corporations can be either
 government-owned or privately owned. They can organize either for profit or as not-for-profit organizations. A privately owned, for-profit corporation is owned
 by its shareholders, who elect a board of directors to direct the corporation and hire its managerial staff. A privately owned, for-profit corporation can be either

 privately held by a small group of individuals, or publicly held, with publicly traded shares listed on a stock exchange.
Cooperative: Often referred to as a "co-op", a cooperative is a limited liability business that can organize for-profit or not-for-profit. A cooperative differs from
 a corporation in that it has members, not shareholders, and they share decision-making authority. Cooperatives are typically classified as either consumer
 cooperatives or worker cooperatives. Cooperatives are fundamental to the ideology of economic democracy.
