MID- TERM FIN 515/Managerial Finance 1. (TCO A) Which of the following statements is CORRECT? (Points : 10)   It is generally more expensive to form a proprietorship than a corporation because, with a proprietorship, extensive legal documents are required.   Corporations face fewer regulations than sole proprietorships.   One disadvantage of operating a business as a sole proprietorship is that the firm is subject to double taxation, at both the firm level and the owner level.   One advantage of forming a corporation is that equity investors are usually exposed to less liability than in a regular partnership.   If a regular partnership goes bankrupt, each partner is exposed to liabilities only up to the amount of his or her investment in the business. 2.
