This involves adding a new record for each employee in the pay period that reflects the employee’s gross pay, tax deductions, and other withholdings for the period.

It had been the policy of the firm to provide a holiday bonus equal to two weeks’ salary to all employees. The firm’s new management team announced on November 15 that a bonus equal to only one week’s salary would be made available to employees this year. Tonya thought that this policy was unfair because she and her coworkers planned on the full two-week bonus. The two-week bonus had been given for 10 straight years, so it seemed as though the firm had breached an implied commitment. Thus, Tonya decided that she would make up the lost bonus week by working an extra six hours of overtime per week over the next five weeks until the end of the year. Kennedy and Kennedy’s policy is to pay overtime at 150% of straight time.Tonya’s supervisor was surprised to see overtime being reported, because there is generally very little additional or unusual client service demands at…arrow_forwardEmily Turnbull, president of Yoga Equipment Corporation, is concerned about her employees' well-being.
