An income-sharing agreement provides flexibility and fairness. Without an income-sharing agreement, each member would be credited with an equal proportion of the total earnings, or one-third each. However, the members provide different capital and effort to the LLC. WLKT is a large contributor of capital (funds), while Madison Sanders is providing ongoing effort and expertise. These separate contributions should be acknowledged in the income-sharing formula. Thus, the agreement credits member equity for both interest on capital and a salary allowance for Sanders. Any remaining income is credited to capital according to a negotiated allocation, which in this case is not an equal amount to each member.
