5. A business owned by one person, and the owner has unlimited liability, meaning the owner can lose more than they invested in the business.
8. A legally binding document that outlines the rights, responsibilities, and obligations of the individuals involved in a partnership.
11. A corporation with the purpose of explicitly including public benefit in their decisions, versus only considering maximizing shareholder value.
13. A “franchisee” pays a fee to a “franchisor” that allows the franchisee to use the franchisor’s brand name. There are generally two types of franchises: business format franchise and product trade name franchise.
17. A type of corporation that serves some public service and therefore gets special tax treatment under the law. The United Way charity is an example.
19. The legal responsibility of an individual (or entity) for business actions, debts, and obligations.
21. This type of corporation has a small group of owners, does not sell its stock to the general public, and does not report its financial information to the public.
23. A hybrid business structure where all the partners have decision-making and management power, and have limited liability, meaning they can’t lose more than they invested, and, they can’t be held responsible (liable) for any of their partner’s actions.
24. A business where a retail franchise operates inside of another, larger “host” facility.
26. When two or more companies cooperate by pooling together resources for the purpose of performing a specific task, like developing a product, selling a certain product, or combining certain business activities.

1. A business where all the partners have decision-making and management power, and have unlimited liability.
2. Similar to a C Corp in that owners’ losses are limited to their investment. However, it is different from a C Corp in that it is limited by the number of owners it can have. And it avoids double taxation by passing the tax liability directly through to each owner (like an LLC or other form of partnership) based on the level of ownership each owner has in the company. Owners are called stockholders.
3. A “licensee” pays a royalty to a “licensor” that allows the licensee rights to use certain intangible property, like trademarks, patents, formulas, processes, designs, and copyrights. For example, Nike might license the use of the NBA trademark in order to sell certain branded apparel.
4. A hybrid business structure, where it combines the operational characteristics of a sole proprietorship or partnership while limiting the liability of the investors to the amount they invested.
6. When two companies, often competitors, join together to form one company. Most often one of the two companies gives up its brand identity. In other cases, the two brand names are shared; ExxonMobil is an example.
7. The liability that extends beyond an individual’s financial investment into a company.
9. A business where individuals make commissions selling goods and services directly, and also make commissions from sales made by their network of recruited distributors.
10. A franchise relationship where the “franchisee” can sell a “franchisor’s” specific line of products. An example would be an independent car dealership selling cars made by, for example, a Ford dealer.
12. A business owned by two or more people.
14. A franchise relationship that gives the “franchisee” access to the “franchisor’s” proprietary knowledge base, systems and processes, training programs, and trademarks and allows the franchisee to operate and sell the franchisor’s product or service under the franchisor’s brand name. Examples include McDonald’s and Subway.
15. A business where one or more of the partners are not active, have no decision-making power, and are limited in their liability to the amount they invested.
16. A corporation that can sell unlimited shares to the general public, is heavily regulated by the government, reports its financial information to the public, and is double taxed.
18. Bringing together multiple companies or multiple parts or business units from multiple companies to form one larger company.
20. A form of multi-level marketing that is illegal to operate, where most of the focus is on collecting large up-front fees and recruiting more members to pay more up-front fees, and to sell low quality products with very little effort on actually selling the products.
22. The liability restricts an individual’s potential loss to the total amount of their investment in a company.
25. A legal entity that is separate from its owners and controlled by a board of directors; the entity has most of the same rights and responsibilities that individuals possess, but offers limited liability.

3. Seat License A paid license that affords the buyer the right to buy season tickets for a specific seat in a stadium. The license is transferable and seat rights may be sold to another person once the owner decides not to purchase season tickets.
4. Many venues use electronic and paperless ticket delivery systems so that delivering the tickets is more convenient for fans. There are different ways to get tickets and they often have to confirm that you are the purchaser of the ticket when you receive the email or other ticket reception software.
5. A number of teams include money-back guarantee terms in their single-game tickets or seasonal ticket packages. Money-back guarantee is an agreement between the ticket seller and ticket buyer that the buyer will receive a full refund if the event does not meet a standard of satisfaction for the patron. Examples of this include the Arena Football League team Jacksonville Sharks implementing a money-back guarantee to season ticket holders after a successful season in which they won their division and the Phoenix Suns guaranteeing a good time for all guests or a complete refund of the ticket price. The trade-off of having to refund ticket prices vs. adding revenue benefits the vendor because it's been proven that fans are unlikely to ask for a refund. Additionally, money-back guarantee is an effective way to market season tickets to new potential buyers.
7. Differences in pricing of a seat based on quality, time, and place. Quality refers to reputation, strength, and draw of the opponent. Time corresponds to the day of the week, time of day, or part of the season. Place is determined by location of seat.
8. The luxury box or skybox and club seating constitute the most exclusive class of seating in arenas and stadiums, and generate much higher revenues than regular seating. Club ticket holders often receive exclusive access to an indoor part of the venue through private club entrances, to areas containing special restaurants, bars, merchandise stands, and lounge areas of the venue that are not otherwise available to regular ticket holders.
9. Stored-value tickets have become commonplace at MLB stadiums. The stored value is accessible via a barcode scanned at the venues. They estimate that patrons with power tickets spend 70 percent more on concessions and merchandise.

Down

1. Preventing brokers or scalpers from selling and reselling tickets on the secondary ticket market has been a challenge for venue owners. How do you make revenue off of the secondary ticket market? In the 2000s the Giants decreased no shows by reselling tickets through their ticket exchange at a 50 percent reduction and generated half a million dollars in revenue. Ticket exchanges offer season ticket holders to resell their tickets in a safe and legal way. StubHub is now the official secondary ticket sales market of MLB. Ticketmaster operates secondary ticket exchanges for the NBA,NHL and NFL.
2. Many teams offer ‘flexible ticket packages’ that can include any amount of tickets to games determined by the team. Tickets that are included in the package are often popular games so that the customers are more likely to buy extra tickets to less desirable games. These packages often include various benefits such as discounts or priority purchasing on other tickets not included in the package.
6. A fee paid for a seat in an unreserved searing or standing area ina public assemble facility.
