The chalcogens (/ËkÃ¦lkÉdÊÉªnz/) are the chemical elements in group 16 of the periodic table. This group is also known as the oxygen family. It consists of the elements oxygen (O), sulfur (S), selenium (Se), tellurium (Te), and the radioactive element polonium (Po). The chemically uncharacterized synthetic element livermorium (Lv) is predicted to be a chalcogen as well.
An S corporation, for United States federal income tax purposes, is a closely held corporation (or, in some cases, a limited liability company or a partnership) that makes a valid election to be taxed under Subchapter S of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code.
A big difference between an S corporation and a C corporation is the way that each entity gets taxed. S corporations are treated as pass-through entities, where taxation passes through to the company's owners, who report their share of profits and losses directly on their personal income tax return. C corporation, also referred to as a regular corporation, is automatically formed when a business decides to incorporate. S corporations must file paperwork with the Internal Revenue Service, which is not a requirement for C corporations.
