Each was to receive $300 per week plus half of the net profits. The business continued under this arrangement for four years until the building was taken over by the Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency. The agency paid $30,000 to Bowen as compensation for disruption. The business, however, was terminated after Bowen and Cutler failed to find a new suitable location.

For the past 10 years, the firm has given employees a year-end bonus equal to two weeks' salary. On November 15, the firm's management team announced that there would be no annual bonus this year. Because of the firm's long history of giving a year-end bonus, Tonya and her co-workers had come to expect the bonus and felt that the CPA firm owed the money to the employees. Tonya decided that she would make up for the lost bonus by working an extra six hours of overtime per week for the rest of the year because overtime hours are paid at "time and a half" rates. Tonya's supervisor was surprised to see overtime being reported, because there's usually not an increase in client service at the end of the calendar year. However, the overtime was not questioned, because employees are on the "honor system" in reporting their work hours. What are your thoughts on this situation?arrow_forward
