3. Profit sharing refers to various incentive plans
introduced by businesses that provide direct or indirect
payments to employees that depend on company’s
profitability in addition to employees’ regular and
bonuses. In publically traded companies these plans
typically amount to allocation of shares to employees.
The basis for profit sharing distribution to employees are
performance and job levels.
All employees’ compensation outside of salaries and
wages , such as employee’s benefits are already considered
part of the employee’s 50% profit shares. These are not
part of operating expenses.

4. Suppose the profit are “x” which might be a random
variable. Before knowing the profits, the profits, the
principle agent might agree on a sharing rule s(x).
Here, the agent will receive s(x) and the principle will
receive the residual gain x-s(x).

5. If and when the company incurs a loss or when the
employees in a particular year, the losses ( which
include the inflation factor) will be a receivable of
the company from the employees’ profit share in the
next profitable year (s).
A maximum of 50% of the profit share for
distribution shall be used to pay for the losses of the
previous year (s).

profit share , of the highest and the lowest ranking
employees should be reasonable.

owner should use the company’s recourses only for
legitimate business related purposes and there should be
