Subject:Quick question on the word Incorporation/Incorporated, etc, From:"Parker, Cassandra M. (EXCH)" <CMPARKER -at- INTERMEDIA -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 9 Mar 1998 15:24:07 -0500
Hi to all,
A Quick question:
I'm trying to find out if the following is correct:
1. There should always be a period preceding the word incorporation at
the end of a company name?
EXAMPLE: Fictitious Name, Inc.
2. Is incorporation and incorporated considered the same?
3. There should not be a period preceding the word corporation?
EXAMPLE: A division of Microsoft Corporation
Thanks in advance for your help.
