Hartman also earns a bonus each year, which is computed as a percent of net income. Required 1. Will Hartman’s bonus depend in any way on the classification of the debt securities? Explain. 2. What criteria must Hartman use to classify the securities as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale? 3. Is there likely any company oversight of Hartman’s classification of the securities? Explain.
