Three students in a business faculty created a computer program that compared various retirement plans. They decided to go into business together to offer their services directly to the public. After doing a feasibility study, they felt there were profits to be made. For tax reasons, they decided not to incorporate. Each contributed $15,000 and Wayne, one of the three, contributed a computer. In a short written agreement, they agreed that all three would be actively involved in the management of the business, that all three would work to update the program, that they would share the profits equally, and that they should not be viewed as partners. Based on these facts, explain if there are any anomalies in their agreement. How would the court of law view their agreement?
