D
Explanation :
The four major forms of business entities discussed in this chapter are sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, and limited liability company (LLC). Subchapter S corporation is a specific type of corporation that elects to be taxed as a pass-through entity, and is therefore a subset of the broader category of corporations.
