Occupational stress is a problem for law enforcement officers because of the effects on job performance, health, alcoholism, drug abuse and suicide as well as family issues. It is important to identify and combat the sources of stress to improve the lives of the officers. The Early Warning system is a very good tool in foreseeing and combating some of these very issues.

Bob is contemplating paying $10,000.00 to each of the twelve shareholders/employees or giving each a new boat that cost the company $10,000.00 but retails at $15,000.00. (which is considered a reasonable price by most consumers and deemed the fair market value (FMV)). However, the distributions will cause the receivers to possibly incur additional taxation such as net investment income tax and other hardships contingent on their personal tax bracket.
