Malaya Redfield is a salesperson for Ludicris Lollipop Ltd., a Canadian public corporation. The company produces various sweets such as candy and chocolate bars.

It has been a stressful time for Malaya these last 18 months. In the summer of 2020, her spouse passed away. Malaya has two children: Ryan who is 13 and Julie who turned 18 on April 30, 2021.

Malaya's 2021 employment contract states that she will be paid an annual base salary of $50,000 plus a commission of 1.5% of her annual cash sales. Her 2020 sales totaled $3,200,000, with $200,000 of this total collected by the company in 2021. Her 2021 sales amounted to $2,800,000, but the company had yet to collect $300,000 of these by December 31, 2021.

In September of 2020, her employer transferred her from Montreal to Toronto. She thought the change would be beneficial after the death of her spouse a few months earlier. Her employer paid for all her moving expenses. Unfortunately, due to the quick sale of her Montreal home, she incurred a $30,000 loss on its sale. Ludicris Lollipop agreed to reimburse her $20,000 of the $30,000 loss, but only in January of 2021. The $20,000 was actually received on January 14, 2021.

In April of 2020, Malaya's employer granted her the right to purchase up to 5,000 shares of the company for $17 per share under the employee stock option plan. At the time the option was granted, the shares were trading for $15. On February 1, 2021, when the shares were trading at $20 per share, she exercised her option on 3,000 shares. She sold 2,000 shares at $22 per share with a settlement date of December 30, 2021.

In order to purchase the 3,000 shares, Malaya negotiated an interest free loan from her employer for the purchase price. The loan was received on February 1, 2021. Malaya repaid the loan in full on December 31, 2021.

Throughout 2021 her employer provided her with an automobile, which it leases for $450 per month. The automobile was available for her personal use. During the year, Malaya drove a total of 35,000 kilometers, 8,000 of which were personal and 27,000 of which were for employment purposes.
