Scenario: Tom and Rich each earn $70,000 a year as general partners in a successful landscaping business. This has been a good choice for them because they prefer to make their own decisions and they enjoy the sense of freedom that comes from working outdoors. Their business employs 25 people. Some of these employees drive company trucks and equipment trailers to job sites. Tom and Rich are considering incorporating. They have asked for your input. Question: What type of corporation (S-corporations or C-Corporation) would work best for their situation? What are the advantages of this type of corporation? What are the disadvantages? Would you recommend that Tom and Rich form a corporation? Why or why not?

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
