A scenario and a question
here is a scenario with a question :

If my company assessed its shareholders fees to cover improvements or repairs that is reasonable, right?
That is, if the improvements and repairs were explicable and the costs were clear.

Now, if my company were to assess the shareholders for these extra costs but the company had done the damage themselves – what’s more, most of the shareholders objected to the actions that caused the damage in the first place - that’d be a bit more iffy, right?

Finally, if my company was run by someone who had previously worked for a major service provider/vendor – and in fact was still on the payroll of that vendor – and awarded all the repair and improvement contracts to that vendor whilst insisting that the shareholders keep paying the fees, but without ever explaining how much the fees will amount to, what repairs are being done, how long the process is to take...


My question is:

Would my company be guilty of:
Embezzlement?
Extortion?
Other(please specify)?
