Description
The appellants, a firm of accountants, brought suit in the lower court on an oral contract for services performed for the respondent corporation, Blue Flame Gas Company. After a trial before the court sitting without a jury, the appellants were awarded a judgment for a sum less than they sought in their complaint; and they appealed. Appellants are a two-man certified public accounting partnership. One of the partners, J. Robert Jackson, had done some accounting work for respondent for several years prior to 1961. These services were terminated by respondent because Jackson's charges were purportedly too expensive. From June 1, 1961, the accounting work for respondent had been handled by another accountant who was a bit tardy in supplying respondent with the accounting information desired at times; so on or about February 8, 1962, Chester Kaufman, an officer of respondent, accompanied by Dean Rundell, plant manager of the respondent's gas plant at Kamiah, Idaho, called at Jackson's office in Caldwell, Idaho, and advised him respondent was considering changing accountants for two of its plants -- one at McCall and the other at Kamiah, Idaho. Kaufman informed Jackson he wanted to know just how much it was going to cost the company per month per plant for all the accounting work done on a quarterly basis and told Jackson the sum of $100 per month was excessive. The respondent was interested in determining on a budget basis just how much would be necessary for the accounting work in each of its two plants. Jackson could not give them an answer at that time but indicated he could do so at a meeting to be held the following day.
