Corporate enterprises are formed, as a rule, by the decision of several founders. They unite their assets, engage in one activity, manage their affairs together, distribute risks and incomes. Among corporate distinguish the following types of enterprises:

- those that are created in the form of an economic society;

- those that are based on the private property of two or more persons.

A unitary enterprise has one founder. He allocates the property necessary for the development of his business, forms a charter that does not contradict the law. The founder does not depend on anyone in deciding whether to restructure the enterprise or liquidate it. He can distribute income himself and form a team, or he can appoint a leader for this. There are the following types of unitary enterprises:

1) Communal. On the basis of a part of communal property, they are created by competent state authorities.

2) The state. On the creation of these orders state authorities. They are formed on the basis of some part of property, separated from the state. The state bodies are governed by the authorities themselves.

3) Enterprises based on the basis of religious organizations.

4) Enterprises formed on the basis of the private property of their founders.

Depending on the number of employees involved and the volume of annual income from products that were sold, there are the following types of enterprises:

1) small;

2) the average;

3) large.

The first include those whose number of employees does not exceed fifty people for the financial year, and the volume of income from services, works or products sold does not exceed five hundred thousand euros at the rate of the National Bank, taken on average for the year. Types of small businesses are determined not by the way they are created, not by those who are their founder, but only by the size and number of employees.

Large enterprises are those in which the number of employees per year (accounting) exceeds a thousand people, and the annual income from the sale of services, works or products exceeds five million euros at the rate of the National Bank, taken on average for the year.
