Arborista, Inc. plants trees and shrubs for homeowners. The trees are
purchased from and delivered by a sister company, Trees-R-Us, Inc.;
Arborista specializes in planting. Arborista obtained capital from family
members in exchange for common stock, which provides an ownership
interest to the family members. On December 1, a total of $50,000 was
raised by issuing 10,000 shares of stock.
An additional $20,000 was borrowed from their hometown bank, also on
December 1. The principal must be repaid at the end of two years, along
with 6 percent interest annually, which accrues as time passes.
Also on December 1, Arborista took delivery of, and began using in the
business, two previously owned Ford F-250 pick-ups for which it paid cash
of $7,000 each. These trucks areexpected to last for five more years, and
the best guess is that each will be worth $1,000 at the endof the five-year
period.
Arborista hired two employees to do the planting: Frank and Francois.
Frank is extremely knowledgeable, but a bit taciturn. Francois is generally
ebullient and has a lovely accent, and so his services were in high demand
by the customers of his former employer. As a result of his popularity,
Francois negotiated a deal with Arborista that he will be paid in advance for
every job (i.e., at the time the job is scheduled). Frank is happy to follow the
more generally accepted method of being paid after he does the work. The
employees furnish their own tools (i.e., shovels and picks).
Arborista decides to charge $75 for planting each tree. The worker planting
the tree (i.e., Frank or Francois) will receive $20 per tree as his wage.
On December 18, two clients came into the office to arrange to have trees
planted on their property. The first client, Ms. Imaprimadonna, was
insistent that her 20 trees/shrubs be planted the next day, as it was critical
that the work be completed before the holidays. Furthermore, she insisted
that Frank do the planting, as she had heard Francois was the chatty type
and she did not want to pay someone to chat. In addition, she insisted that
Frank must arrive at her house before the clock truck 8:00 a.m., or the
order was cancelled. Finally, Ms. Imaprimadonna insisted that she be billed
for the job and allowed to pay in three weeks.
2
The second client, Ms. Bonappetit, wanted 30 trees/shrubs planted. She
was flexible about when the work would be completed, as long as it was
scheduled after the first of the year. However, she did ask that Francois do
the work, as she had heard wonderful things about his charming manner
from her friend. Ms. Bonappetit insisted on paying in advance, and
immediately wrote a check for the total amount. Arborista scheduled
Francois to do the work in four weeks and, per their
agreement, paid him immediately.
Frank arrived at Ms. Imaprimadonna’s home at 7:59 a.m. on December 19
and completed the planting to her satisfaction. His next payday is January
5. Ms. Imaprimadonna paid promptly on January 8. Francois performed
the work for Ms. Bonappetit on January 15. Both customers promised to
recommend Arborista, Inc. to their friends.
