C-Corporation Taxation
Double Taxation Explained
C-Corporations face what is known as “double taxation.” The corporation itself pays taxes on its profits at the corporate tax rate (currently 21% federal). When profits are distributed to shareholders as dividends, those dividends are taxed again at the individual shareholder’s tax rate.
This differs from pass-through entities like S-Corporations and LLCs, where profits are only taxed once at the individual level.
Tax Advantages
- Lower corporate tax rate (21% federal)
- Deductible business expenses reduce taxable income
- Ability to retain earnings for future growth at lower corporate tax rates
- Fringe benefits for employees are tax-deductible
- Potential for income splitting between corporation and shareholders
- Qualified Business Income Deduction may apply in some cases
Disadvantages
Double Taxation: Profits taxed at corporate level and again as shareholder dividends
Complexity: More paperwork and formalities than other business structures
Cost: Higher formation and ongoing maintenance costs
Regulations: Subject to more government regulations
Less Flexibility: Must follow corporate formalities like board meetings
Potential for Conflict: Possible conflicts between shareholders and management
