38-1 Limited Liability Companies

John, Lesa, and Tabir form a limited liability company John contributes 60 percent of the capital, and Lesa and Tabir each contribute 20 percent. Nothing is decided about how profits will be divided. John assumes that he will be entitled to 60 percent of the profits, in accordance with his contribution. Lesa and Tabir, however, assume that the profits will be divided equally.

How could this dispute have been avoided in the first place? Discuss fully. (See The Limited Liability Company.)
