KN: They have to register with the authorities.
APP: For instance, it will be Companies House in UK.
AN: Due to this, the company will be legal and able to gain the trust of more investors, increasing capital and finance raised, which can be used to offer a wider variety of goods, which attracts more customers.
AN+: This will increase the amount of revenue and profit margins earned, thus, ensuring the long term survival of the business.

KN: They have to prepare legal documents.
APP: Such as Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association.
AN: These documents contain the details about the business and this makes it easier for the banks to trust the business due to which they can gain larger amounts of loans with lesser interest charged, due to which the amount saved from the interests can be allocated elsewhere like improving working conditions.
AN+: This will motivate the employees, therefore, improving efficiency.

( Formality 1)
(KN)
A business must prepare a memorandum of association which explains the company name ,aims and share capital.
(APP)
For example when a company like Engro Foods Ltd was created in Pakistan it needed a memorandum to legally state its objectives.
(AN)
This ensures the government and investors know the basic details of company before it begins trading.

(Formality 2)
(KN)
A business must also complete an Articles of Association which sets the internal rules for running the company.
(App)
For instance nestle Pakistan Ltd uses its article to guide how directors are elected and how dividends are shared.
(AN)
This gives share holders and managers clear rules helping the business avoid conflicts and run smoothly.
