Mobey and Oak are family practice physicians, and Chesterfield is a general surgeon. Chesterfield receives many referrals for surgery from his family practice partners. Upon the partnership’s original formation, the three doctors agreed to a two-part formula to share income. Every month, each doctor receives a salary allowance of $3,000. Additional income is divided according to a percent of patient charges the doctors generate for the month. In the current month, Mobey generated 10% of the billings, Oak 30%, and Chesterfield 60%. The group’s income for this month is $50,000. Chesterfield has expressed dissatisfaction with the income-sharing formula and asks that income be split entirely on patient charge percents. Required 1.

Helen Hunt and Cory Coates, two salespersons in adjoining territories, regularly compete for bonuses. During the last month, their dollar volume of sales, on which the bonuses are based, was nearly equal. On the last day of the month, both made a large sale. Both orders were shipped on the last day of the month and both were received by the customer on the fifth of the following month. Helen's sale was FOB shipping point, and Cory's was FOB destination. The company "counts" sales for purposes of calculating bonuses on the date that ownership passes to the purchaser. Helen's sale was therefore counted in her monthly total of sales, Cory's was not. Cory is quite upset. She has asked you to just include it, or to take Helen's off as well. She also has told you that you are being unethical for allowing Helen to get a bonus just for choosing a particular shipping method. Write a response to Cory. Explain your position.arrow_forward
