    D) S corporation.

    Explanation:

    S corporations do not pay any income taxes. Instead, shareholders pay individual taxes over their dividends.

    In this case, the three shareholders are not thinking about getting any dividends for the first few years, they want to reinvest all profits, therefore, their company would not pay any taxes, and neither would they individually.
