While the S corporation is not taxed separately, a Form 1120S is the S corp filing form used to report to the IRS on what profits and losses occurred in the business. S corporations are required to file annual reports with the states they operate in, and pay franchise taxes to maintain good standing.
For other uses, see Brix (disambiguation). Degrees Brix (symbol Â°Bx) is the sugar content of an aqueous solution. One degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution and represents the strength of the solution as percentage by mass. If the solution contains dissolved solids other than pure sucrose, then the Â°Bx only approximates the dissolved solid content. The Â°Bx is traditionally used in the wine, sugar, carbonated beverage, fruit juice, and honey industries.
Some plants, such as sugar cane and sugar beet, accumulate high levels of sucrose and as such are used as commercial sources of sugar. A stalk of the cane plant contains about 14% sugar and sugar beets contain about 19%. Sucrose is a disaccharide, made up of the two sugar units, glucose and fructose (monosaccharides). It is present in honey, maple syrup, fruits, berries, and vegetables. It is also added to food products as crystalline sucrose (granulated, brown sugars) or in liquid form.
