Each was to receive $300 per week plus half of the net profits. The business continued under this arrangement for four years until the building was taken over by the Salt Lake City Redevelopment Agency.

- Kathy Wintz formed a lawn service business as a summer job. To start the corporation on May 1, 2018, she deposited $1,000 in a new bank account in the name of the business.
