Benefits of S Corporations
The owners of any business, irrespective of the size, can benefit from incorporating. With the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the S Corporation became a highly desirable entity for corporate tax purposes. An S Corporation is a special tax designation granted by the IRS to corporations. Many small business owners and entrepreneurs prefer S corporation because it combines many of the advantages of a sole proprietorship, partnership and the corporate forms of business structure.

A traditional 10' log wall will settle upward of 6 to 8 inches depending upon the moisture content of the logs. Special construction methods must be employed to counter the effects of settling.
