In June, Armando decided to refurbish his office. This project was completed and the assets placed in service on July 1. Armando’s expenditures included $8,000 for new office furniture, $6,000 for new dental equipment (seven-year recovery period), and $2,000 for a new computer. Armando elected to compute his cost recovery allowance using MACRS. He did not elect to use §179 immediate expensing, and he chose to not claim any bonus depreciation.

Lourdes’s mother, Maria, died on July 2, 2011, leaving Lourdes her entire estate. Included in the estate was Maria’s residence (325 Oak Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45211). Maria’s basis in the residence was $30,000. The fair market value of the residence on July 2, 2011, was $155,000. The property was distributed to Lourdes on January 1, 2012. The Gonzaleses have held the property as rental property and have managed it themselves. From 2012 until June 30, 2016, they rented the house to the same tenant. The tenant was transferred to a branch office in California and moved out at the end of June. Since they did not want to bother finding a new tenant, Armando and Lourdes sold the house on June 30, 2016. They received $140,000 for the house and land ($15,000 for the land and $125,000 for the house), less a 6 percent commission charged by the broker. They had depreciated the house using the MACRS rules and conventions applicable to residential real estate.

Problem 10-01A

On January 1, 2022, the ledger of Sandhill Co. contained these liability accounts.

During January, the following selected transactions occurred.

During January, the company’s employees earned wages of $60,000. Withholdings related to these wages were $4,590 for Social Security (FICA), $5,200 for federal income tax, and $1,560 for state income tax. The company owed no money related to these earnings for federal or state unemployment tax. Assume that wages earned during January will be paid during February.

For the past decade, your company has encouraged sales teams to work together in a cooperative and cohesive manner. This initiative is closely aligned with one of the company’s core values: “Together, we achieve more.” To motivate sales associates to cooperate with one another in their respective teams, at the end of each fiscal year, team managers evaluate their respective teams by rating them on a number of behavioral dimensions related to cooperation and cohesion. Teams that receive high marks on their evaluations receive year-end bonuses, and this bonus program accounts for 10% of compensation for those working as salespeople; the remaining 90% of compensation is distributed in the form of a base salary. Thus far, the company has found this pay-for-performance system to be quite effective, as team cooperation and cohesion have improved demonstrably. Lately, your company has lost some of its top sales associates to competitors, and exit interviews revealed that some sales associates believed that they were not recognized and rewarded for their unique, individual contributions to the organization—namely, their sales productivity. To address this issue, the company has decided to implement a new pay-for-performance program designed to reward individual sales associates for their sales productivity; specifically, the company plans to implement a sales commission program. This new variable-pay program constitutes 40% of their compensation, and the remaining 60% will be distributed in the form of a base salary (50%) and a team bonus based on manager ratings of team cooperation and cohesion (10%). Ultimately, the organization wants to incentivize team cooperation and cohesion as well as individual sales productivity in an effort to encourage collaboration and individual contributions. Consider the entire compensation package from a systems perspective.

Do you have any concerns regarding the implementation of the new sales commission program? Do you think there will be any unintended consequences? Consider this decision using the following criteria. Please provide the rationale for your answer to each of the questions below.

Is the compensation package legal, ethical, and fair?

Is it evidence based/evidence informed?

Does it foster healthy employee–employer relationships?

Is it time and cost effective?

Does it take a systematic stakeholder perspective?

Considering your analysis, overall, do you think this would be an effective decision? Why or why not?

What, if anything, do you think should be done differently or considered to help make this decision more effective?
