As per rules I am answering the first 4 subparts of the question
1: All the factors should be considered
(In the formation of business we should consider the reporting requirements which are more stringent in the case of company. Ease and cost of formation is lesser in case of proprietorship and higher in case of company. Complexity of management is higher in case of company but lesser in other forms)
2: Family proprietorship
Family Limited Partnership is one in which the family members contribute money. C corp and S corp are popular forms of corporation.
3: Ease to sell business assets
A sole proprietor can sell off the business assets without complex procedures. He has unlimited liability and Business income is subject to self-employment tax, hence options 2 and 3 are incorrect.
4: FLP
FLP can guarantee that there will be continuous family ownership of the business and the business passes from one generation to the other. LLC and sole proprietorship do not pass the assets to the younger generations.
