Case Study: FF Facial Defense

Great Essays
My business which would be called the FF Facial Defense. This company would be designing a better SCBA, Self Containing Breathing Apparatus, face mask and would be located in the state of Pennsylvania As a firefighter I have seen turn out gear that was able to withstand up to five hundred degrees for five minutes or 1,200 degrees of heat for 8 minutes. However, I have learn from my fire academy instructor and from pictures that our face mask is not able to withstand 450 degrees of heat, but will start to bubble and holes will start to form. Which for any firefighter is pretty much a death sentence. The market is continuing to make turn out gear better, lighter, and able to withstand the rising heat surrounding us, but no one is doing …show more content…

    LIT1 Task A SOLE PROPRIETORSHIP: • LIABILITY – The owner and the business are considered as one and so the owner has unlimited liability for the business. Therefore the all of the owner’s personal assets, the business’s assets and the business’s future earnings may be at risk. • INCOME TAXES – All income for the business goes on the owner’s personal income tax returns whether federal, state or local.
