Imagine you and three friends start a lemonade stand. You contribute the money for supplies, one friend makes the lemonade, another friend attracts customers, and the last friend keeps track of the money. How should the profits be divided? Should everyone get the same amount, or should some people get more? Why? Write a short response (2–3 sentences) explaining how they think the money should be shared. When finished, comment on one classmate's post! by Izayah Parks

Some people should get more money because some jobs may be more difficult. Certain skills may be required and some jobs can take alot.

The profits should be divided based on each person's contribution. Since I provided the money for supplies, I could receive a larger share to cover my investment, while the others split the remaining profit based on their efforts. However, if we agreed beforehand to split evenly, that would also be fair as everyone contributed in different but important ways.

The profits should likely be divided based on the contributions each person made. Since you provided the money for supplies, you might receive a larger share of the profits, while the others should receive a fair portion based on the effort they put into making lemonade, attracting customers, and managing the money. It's important to ensure that everyone feels valued for their role.

yes they should split the money because although everyone did not have the same job everyone did have todo something and it was all their ideas

I think the four should receive the same amount of money because even though the four have different functions, the four functions are important but first they should put a little part to pay the initial money that I provided at the beginning.

i think the profits should be divided equally to each person because. Everyone is doing one thing to help provide for the lemonade stand.

The profit should be divided by the person that contributes the money for the supplies should get more then the both, because supplies are not cheap and the other two should get paid equal or the person that is making the lemonade should get paid a little more then the other.

i would divide the profits separately, some people get more money than others because so people or doing more than others, like the one providing the supplies and the ones making it are doing more than the others.

I believe that everyone should receive the same amount because it was everyone's idea. Even though even though they had different positions they put in the same effort.

yes because everybody played a part in it and it would only be fair .

If think that everyone's pay should be split up evenly. Although some aspects may be more impactful, everyone contributed and played a part.

I think the people who contributed the money and the one who makes the lemonade should get a higher pay. They provided more than the others.

I feel like they should split the money equally because everyone had a job and it work out.

the profits should be split 4 ways, evenily due to the fact there are four people contributing to the success of this lemonade stand.

I think everyone should get the same amount of profits because everyone did something.

I think two people people should earn more, the one who spends on the suplies for the lemonade and the one who makes them because the one who spends money is providing the money to create the lemonade and without the money they couldn’t sell, and the person who makes them because he puts a lot of effort into making them.

split the money

The profits should be shared based on the contributions each person made. Since one person provided the money for supplies, they might deserve a larger share, while the others should receive compensation based on the work they did (making lemonade, attracting customers, and managing money). However, everyone should still receive something for their efforts.
