## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the correct statement about corporations. The options provided are:- The owners of corporations have unlimited liability- Company stockholders have limited liability- All corporations have limited liability- Some corporations have limited liability, but others have unlimited liability## Step 2We need to understand the concept of liability in the context of corporations. In a corporation, the owners are the shareholders. The shareholders have limited liability, which means they are not personally responsible for the corporation's debts and obligations beyond their investment in the corporation.## Step 3Based on this understanding, we can eliminate the first option, which states that the owners of corporations have unlimited liability. This is not true because shareholders have limited liability.## Step 4The third option, which states that all corporations have limited liability, is also not entirely accurate. While most corporations do have limited liability, there are exceptions.## Step 5The fourth option, which states that some corporations have limited liability, but others have unlimited liability, is also not accurate. All corporations, by definition, have limited liability.## Step 6The second option, which states that company stockholders have limited liability, is the correct answer. This is because, in a corporation, the shareholders (stockholders) have limited liability, meaning they are not personally responsible for the corporation's debts and obligations beyond their investment in the corporation.
