Question 5
5. In computing the 13th month pay of its employees, Liwayway Company (LC)

vacation and sick leaves. LC had been implementing this method for two years
when it suddenly announced that the method was erroneous and would therefore
be discontinued. May LC lawfully discontinue using this method? Discuss.
