Joint Stock Company
TYPES OF COMPANY:
2. High taxation: Joint stock companies have to pay tax at higher rates
compared to other forms of organizations.
3. Excessive government controls: A company has to submit many
statements and returns to the government. There are many inspections
and formalities of submission of records, especially in the case of
manufacturing companies. Excessive government control leads to waste
of time, money and loss of freedom.
7. Social evils: Joint Stock Company system has encouraged the growth of
monopolies. In many cases monopolies have exploited consumers,
workers and suppliers.
CONCLUSION
From the above discussion of the merits and drawbacks of the corporate
form of organization, it may be concluded that the advantages of this form
of organization outnumber its weaknesses. Most of the evils enumerated
above arise either from management or from the misuse of this otherwise
desirable form of organization. It is also clear that despite its weaknesses
the company form of organization is best suited to those lines of business
entity which require huge capital outlay and maximum stability. For those
lines of business that call for prompt decisions, personal interest and
initiative on the part of the proprietor or proprietors and do not require
very large investment for long periods, individual proprietorship and
partnership will generally be more suitable. In fact it is this which accounts
for the fact that these forms of organizations co – exist with the company
organization even though the latter is undoubtedly superior to them.
