I need help with this case study. This is for my Mangement information systems class at Keller University.

Phil is employed by Boudon Enterprises (BE). BE hired him began employing him in 2015 to workon the redevelopment of their computer system.Phil is paid an hourly wage and received a W2 from BE at the end of each year.BE also provides Phil with healthcare insurance.

One day, Phil decides to go out for lunch at Joe's Bar and Grill with some co-workers to celebrate his birthday.His Boss Jim pays for everyone's lunch and buys 6 rounds of beers which Phil drinks each of the 6 beers.Jim pays for lunch including the beers with a BE corporate credit card.Jim tells eveyrone at lunch, don't tell anyone at work that BE paid for everything.

As Philis pulling out of Joe's Bar after a good 2 hour lunch where heconsumed 6 beers, he does not see Nicole pulling into the Bar's parking lot.A car accident occurs and Nicole breaks her wrist and suffers a concussion where she misses a month of work.

1.At the time of the accident, is Phil in the scope of employment?Why or why not?

2.Does Respondeat Superior come into play here?

3.Is BE liable for Nicole's injuries?Why or why not?

4..Does it matter who paid for the beers?Why or why not-
