A cooperative (also co-operative; often referred to as a co-op) is a business organization owned and operated by a group of individuals for their mutual benefit. Cooperatives are defined by the International Co-operative Alliance's Statement on the Co-operative Identity as autonomous associations of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations through jointly-owned and democratically-controlled enterprises. A cooperative may also be defined as a business owned and controlled equally by the people who use its services or by the people who work there. Cooperative enterprises are the focus of study in the field of cooperative economics. The Cloyne Court Hotel, a student housing cooperative in Berkeley, California, United States.

Asked by amleht - Wed Oct 31 02:36:48 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Ignorance of the law excuses no one. A person or group who ventures into a business has to have the initiative to know this. They may seek professional help to ensure compliance to BIR regulations. Should there be anything vague in the regulation, you can send a letter to the bureau asking for a ruling to clarify things. If we wait for the government to disseminate it well, it will take years before it can be implemented. There are just a few government representatives versus a lot of working citizens.
