If I had a dollar for every time I saw 'Incorporated' as a confusing answer option, I'd be a rich man. D) Incorporated is definitely a basic business structure.

Haha, I bet someone is going to choose 'Incorporated' thinking it's a different structure from a Corporation. Nice try, test-makers!

No, that's actually incorrect. 'Incorporated' is another term for 'Corporation'.
