Bonus is something in addition to what is expected or strictly due. In worker's compensation, bonus is a pay plan that rewards employees for recent performance rather than historical performance. In a legal partnership, bonus is a payment by a new partner or, vice versa, to a new partner.
Definitions
According to Organizational Behavior by Robbins and Judge (17th edition),
- Bonus. A pay plan that rewards employees for recent performance rather than historical performance.
According to College Accounting: A Practical Approach by Slater (13th edition),
- Bonus. When a new partner is admitted, he or she may pay more or less than equity interest. If the new partner pays more, the old partners share a bonus in the profit and loss ratio. Of course, the opposite could result, and the new partner could receive a bonus if he or she invests less than equity interest.
