Question 4

 

BE18-2 Stengel Co. enters into a 3-year contract to perform maintenance service to Laplante Inc. Laplante promises to pay $100,000 at the beginning of each year (the standalone selling price of the service at contract inception is $100,000 per year). At the end of the second year, the contract is modified and the fee for third year of service, which reflects a reduced menu of maintenance services to be performed at Laplante locations, is reduced to $80,000 (the standalone selling price of the ser- vices at the beginning of the third year is $80,000 per year). Briefly describe the accounting for this contract modification.

Question 7

 

Some organizations have a practice of using temps as a source for permanent employment and use the temporary employment period as a “trial” period for consideration of permanent employment. Is this an ethical practice in your opinion or should permanent employees be recruited through a separate source and serve a probationary period after being employed? Which is more sound from a legal perspective?

 

Question 8

 

Some may question the “ethics” of the instability of contract or temporary employment and how those employees can be let go with little or no warning based upon the employer’s needs. However, don’t most individuals who accept these types of “contingent” positions know and understand the “rules of the game” and that there is no long term security in this type of employment relationship? It is interesting that with the state of the current economy there may be more individuals accepting temporary employment as a “gap filler” while seeking full-time employment. How may this change the status of temporary or contract employment or will it change it at all?
