      Person Account is used for B2C & Business Account is B2B model in Salesforce. In real life, headquarter or head office of business Account can never be person Account. Therefore we cannot choose Person Account as parent Account for Business Account. It will throw error –Parent Account may not be a person account.

      "I can't choose a Person Account as a Parent Account of another Account. Please help!" ... You can, however, use Contacts to Multiple Accounts to create indirect relationships between a person account and another person account, business account, or contact
