• AssociateProfitSplitter.sol -- Level 1
• TieredProfitSplitter.sol -- Level 2
• DeferredEquityPlan.sol -- Level 3

To Note

• Before developing and testing the contracts, I have my blockchain network running in Ganache and MetaMask extension connected and pointing to Localhost:8545.

• In the Deploy tab in Remix IDE, I connected to my local Ganache chain by selecting Injected Web3 in the Environment column.

• For each contract, I filled in the constructor parameters with the designated employee addresses before transacting and deploying.

Level One: AssociateProfitSplitter.sol Contract

This contract accepts Ether and divides it evenly between Associate-level employees. This allows the Human Resources department to pay employees quickly and efficiently.

Compile AssociateProfitSplitter.sol

Deploy AssociateProfitSplitter.sol

Level Two: TieredProfitSplitter.sol Contract

In this contract rudimentary percentages are calculated for different tiers of employees (CEO, CTO, and Bob). The incoming Ether is distributed at different levels: CEO – 60%; CTO – 25%; Bob – 15%.

Compile TieredProfitSplitter.sol

Deploy TieredProfitSplitter.sol

Level Three: DeferredEquityPlan.sol Contract

In This contract 1000 shares are automatically distributed over 4 years to the employee, deployed by HR.

Compile and Deploy DeferredEquityPlan.sol

For testing purposes, I created a new variable uint fakenow = now; and utilized the function to fast forward by 100 days:

   function fastforward() public {
       fakenow += 100 days;
   }
