1. Preferred stocks get priority if the company is liquidated. For other differences — do a search online!
2. The structure of a business would depend on what the business is doing. While the first three can apply to almost anything, something that’s a non-profit is not likely to be in the same line of business as a for-profit. The different types generally provide different (if any) legal protection. Do a search!
