- Problem 13-5 (Algo) Bonus compensation; algebra [LO13-3] Sometimes compensation packages include bonuses designed to provide performance incentives to employees. The difficulty a bonus can cause accountants is not an accounting problem, but a math problem. The complication is that the bonus formula sometimes specifies that the calculation of the bonus is based in part on the bonus itself. This occurs anytime the bonus is a percentage of income because expenses are components of income, and the bonus is an expense.

Division income in 2024 before the bonus and income tax was $125,000. The tax rate is 30%. Required: 2. Calculate the amount of the bonus. 3.

One side argued that recognizing revenue upon project completion was preferable because it was analogous to recognizing revenue at the point of delivery. This side was represented by let’s say Karl. The other side disagreed and supported recognizing revenue over time, stating that it was analogous to accruing revenue as a performance obligation was satisfied.
