- BEASLEY, Justice

. This appeal arises out of a compensation and intellectual property dispute between Robert Paul Morris (“plaintiff”) and his former employer Scenera Research, LLC and its CEO Ryan Fry (collectively , “defendants”). In 2004, S tanley Fry , defendant Ryan Fry’s father, hired plaintiff as Scenera’s first e mployee. The parties did not sign a written employment agreement. They did, however , have several discussions concern ing the details of plaintiff’s employment. Plaintiff expressed interest in invent ing, but testified at trial that he had no obligation to invent. According to plaintiff

, inventing was not part of his regular job duties for which he received a base salary. Plaintiff participated in Scenera’s patent bonus program (the “bonus program”) , under which he receive d $5 000 for every patent application submitted to the United States Patent and Trademar k Office (“PTO”) and another $5 000 if and when the patent issued. D efendant Ryan Fry became concerned with the bonus program’s viability and suspended Scenera’s bonus program for all employees effective 1 January 2008

. Plaintiff testified that Scenera owed him $210,000 i n patent bonuses at this time. Plaintiff voluntarily suspended receipt of payments beginning in January 2008 , believing tha t defendant Fry had promised to re instate the original bonus program if Scenera did not create a new compensation plan and , thereafter, provide plaintiff a written employment contract.M ORRIS V

- As of 2009, the parties had not been able to agree on a new compensat ion plan and plaintiff still had no written contract

. Frustrated with this lack of progress, plaintiff hired a lawyer and threatened to sue under the North Carolina Wage and Hour Act (“WHA”) for the $210,000 in bonuses owed. The parties dis pute the event s that followed. Plaintiff claimed that Scenera fired him in retaliation for his threatening to bring a lawsuit, thereby violating the North Carolina Retaliatory Employmen t Discrimination Act (“REDA”). Defendants counter ed that plaintiff clearly intended to leave the company and that his lawyer indicated the only option

was to negotiate a severance package

— thus, plaintiff “ effectively resigned ” and defendants me rely accepted the resignation. Defendants tendered plaintiff a check for $210 ,000 on the condition that he acknowledge Scenera’s ownership of patent applications filed and patents issued between 1 January 2008 and 17 June 2009. P laintiff did not accept defendants’ offer

. Plaintiff filed a complaint against defendants alleging bre ach of contract, fraud ulent inducement , unjust enrichment, and WHA and REDA violations

. On 1 April 2011, the Chief Justice designated this action as a complex business case and assigned it to the North Carolina Business Court

. D efendants asserted a
count erclaim for declaratory judgment that (1) Scenera owns all inventions plaintiff devel oped during his employment, and (2) plaintiff was not entitled to bonuses for patent applications filed or patents issued any time after January 2008

. Both parties moved for summary judgment . The trial court granted defendants’ motion in part, concluding that plaintiff was “hired to invent ,” and that ownership of the patents presumptively rested with Scenera, with the onus on plaintiff to prove that an agreement between the part ies vested ownership with him. The trial court also granted defendants ’ summary ju dgment on plaintiff’s claims for fraudulent ind ucement and unjust enrichment. The trial court denied the remainder of plaintiff’s and defendants’ motions for summary judgment. Trial began on 30 January 2012

. At the close of the evidence, the trial cour t granted defendants’ motion for a directed verdict with respect to the issue of patent ownership, but denied defendants’ motion for a directed verd ict on the WHA and REDA claims. The trial court submitted the rest of the issues to the jury, and the jury awarded plaintiff (1) $210,000 in patent bonuses under the WHA for applications filed or patents issued between 1 January 2008 and 17 June 2009, (2) $675,000 under the WHA in patent issuance bonuses for patent applications pending as of 17 June 2009, (3) a nd $390,000 for REDA violations. Plaintiff then requested liquidated damages and attorneys’ fees under the WHA, and treble damages a nd attorneys’ fees under REDA. The trial court denied plaintiff’s request to treble damages, awarded $450,000 in attorneys’ fees, and awarded $210,000 in liquidated damages for pat ents that have already issued.

- patents that had not yet issued. The trial court further ruled that Scen era owned all of the inventions, patents, and patent applications listed in plaintiff’s complaint, required plaintiff to assign any unassigned patent applications to Scenera, and ruled that Scenera could not recover damages under its counterclaims. Defend ants moved for judgment notwithstanding the verdict ( JNOV ) , and the trial court denied the motion. All parties appealed. The Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s ruling on the motions for directed verdict and JNOV, liquidated damages, WHA damage s, and REDA damages. The court reversed, however, the trial court’s ruling that plaintiff could not pursue rescission. Morris v. Scenera Research LLC , 229 N.C. App. 31, 747 S.E.2d 362 (2013). All parties appealed. I A Defendants contend that the trial court should have granted their motions for directed verdict and JNOV as to whether plaintiff was entitled to patent issuance bonuses for patents still pending when his employment with Scenera ended. To survive a motion f

or directed verdict or JNOV, the non

. The WHA provides:

Employees whose employment is discontinued for any reason shall be paid all wages due on or before the next regular payday either through the regular pay channels or by mail if requested by the employee.

- 25.7 (2015 )

. At trial, plaintiff testified that he, like other Scenera employees, had a uniqu e bonus plan, and that he was never informed that continued employment with Scenera was a prerequisite for receiving patent issuance bonuses. Plaintiff confirmed in his testimony that “the issuance bonus . . . was earned at the time the patent application was filed.” He further testified that after a patent was filed and he assigned the corresponding rights to Scenera, “I was entitled to $5,000. . . . There was nothing as far as work with respect to the patent that I needed to do in order to earn that bonus.”M ORRIS V
. S CENERA R ESEA RCH , LLC Opinion of the Court

- Moreover, Mona Singh, an inventor and witness for Scenera, confirmed that “whatever bonuses applied t o [her] agreement became earned and due at the time the patent was filed.” Singh also testified that she had received five or six issuance bonuses after leaving Scenera. We hold that plaintiff has carried his minimal burden of presenting more than

a sc intilla of evidence supporting his WHA claim. While defendants cite conflicting evidence (some of which we discuss below), in the context of a directed verdict and JNOV, the trial court must resolve these conflicts in plaintiff’s favor. Accordingly, we af firm the Court of Appeals’ holding that the trial court properly submitted the question of whether plaintiff was entitled to the issuance bonuses to the jury and properly denied defendants’ directed verdict and JNOV motions. B Defendants further argue that the Court of Appeals erred in construing the term “calculable” under the WHA to mean capable of being estimated. As a preliminary matter, we address the Court of Appeals’ holding that the question of whether a wage is “calculable” under the WHA is one of fact, not law, and that therefore the trial court could properly submit the question to the jury. The Court of Appeals explained that determining whether a wage is calculable “ requires a weighing of the evidence and, thus, falls in a jury trial within th e exclusive purview of the jury. ” Morris , 229 N.C. App. at 44 , 747 S.E.2d at 370 (citations omitted)

. A s we have explained, it is for the trial court “ to determine whether the evidence

- sufficient to permit a legitimate inference of the facts ess ential to recovery; and it is the province of the jury to weigh the evidence and to determine what it proves or fails to prove. ” Sn eed v. Lions Club of Murphy, N. C., Inc. , 273 N.C. 98, 101, 159 S.E.2d 770, 772 (1968) (citations omitted)

. “ It is still for the jury if reasonable [minds] may differ as to its truth or if conflicting inferences may reasonably be drawn from ” the evidence. Cutts v. Casey , 278 N.C. 390, 421, 180 S.E.2d 297, 314 (1971) (citations omitted)

. Because determining whether a wage is ca lculable involves a weighing of the evidence, we affirm the Court of Appeals’ holding that this issue presents a question of fact. At trial, plaintiff argued that the value of the patent issuance bonuses for patent applications still pending with the PTO could be calculated using the following formula: 150 outstanding patents x $5,000 for each successfully issued patent x 90 % patent issuance success rate = $675,000. The trial court instructed the jury to determine whether it could calculate the issuance bonuses owed, and if so, to c ompute that amount

. The Court of Appeals first noted that neither the WHA nor case law define the term “calculable.” The court therefore consulted the American Heritage College Dictionary , which defined calculable as “ ‘[t]hat [which] can be calculated or estimated .’ ” Morris , 229 N.C. App. at 45, 747 S.E.2d at 371 (quoting The American Heritage College Dictionary 198 (3d ed. 1997) (emphasis added) ). The court concluded that plaintiff’s proffered formula “was at least one reasonable way to calculate ” theM ORRIS V
. S CENERA R ESEA RCH , LLC Opinion of the Court

- 9

- bonuses and therefore held that the trial court did not err in submitting this question to the jury

. Id. at 45, 747 S.E.2d at 371. Defendants again argue that “calculable” does not mean capable of being estimated because this interpretation would allow impermissible speculation as to future wages. Defendants cite the rule that “the party seeking damage s must show that the amount of damages is based upon a standard that will allow the finder of fact to calculate the amount of damages with reasonable certainty.” Olivetti Corp. v. Ames Bus. Sys., Inc. , 319 N.C. 534, 547

- 48 , 3 56 S.E.2d 578, 586 (1987) (cit ation omitted)

. Plaintiff’s formula, they contend, does not allow for the reasonably certain determination of issuance bonuses associated with pending patent applications. We disagree. In other contexts in which a party seeks to recover lost profits, that party must show “ both the amount and [the] cause of his loss. Absolute certainty, however, is not required, but both the cause and the amount of the loss must be shown with reasonable certainty. ” Cary v. Harris, 178 N.C. 624, 628, 101 S.E. 486, 488 (1919) (quoting Nance v. W

. Union Tel. Co., 177 N.C. 314 , 317, 98 S.E.

- We further note that defendants presented no evidence at trial challenging the adequacy of plaintiff’s formula

. Because defendant s offered no other formula, t his Court need only be concerned that the result reached, based on the evi dence presented, is reasonable

. See Jenrette Transp. Co., 236 N.C. at 539

- 40 , 73 S.E.2d at
485. We therefore a ffirm the Court of Appeals’ holding that determining calculability of wages under the WHA is a question of fact to be submitted to a jury

. II We next address plaintiff’s argument that the Court of Appeals erred in affirming the trial court’s decision to refrain from awarding plaintiff liquidated damages on the jury’s award of issuance bonuses associated with unissued patents. First, we must determine the appropriate standard of review. Plaintiff contends that de novo review applies, while defendants contend that we should apply a three

- tiered standard as used by federal co urts addressing claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”). In Kornegay v. Aspen Asset Gr oup , LLC , the Court of Appeals adopted the latter approach.

[T] he traditional standard of revie w that applies to a trial court’ s factual findings

— in federal court, the “clearly erroneous” standard and in North Carolina, the “competent evidence” standard

— applies to findings of fact made by a trial court in addressing a claim for liquidated damage s. In reviewing the trial court’ s conclusions of law, the courts have held that review is de novo, including on the issue whether the findings of fact support the conclusions of law.M ORRIS V

- 11

- 204 N.C. App. at 245, 693 S.E.2d at 745. The trial court’s final decision to award or refrain from awarding liquidated damages is then reviewed for abuse of discretion. Id. at 244 , 693 S.E.2d at 744. We adopt the Court of Appeals’ reasoning in Kornegay and review the trial court’s decision to not award plaintiff liquidated damages for an abuse of discretion. We hold that the tr ial court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that plaintiff was not entitled to liquidated damages. The WHA provides:

In addition to the amounts awarded pursuant to subsection (a) of this section, the court shall award liquidated damages in an amount equal to the amount found to be due as provided in subsection (a) of this section, provided that if the employer shows to the satisfaction of the court that the act or omission constituting the violation was in good faith and that the employer had r easonable grounds for believing that the act or omission was not a violation of this Article, the court may, in its discretion, award no liquidated damages or may award any amount of liquidated damages not exceeding the amount found due as provided in subs ection (a) of this section. N.C.G.S. § 95

- 25.22(a1) (2015)

. Plaintiff argues that defendants committed a per se WHA violation that was unreasonable as a matter of law when they did not notify him that he would not receive the issuance bonuses when his employment ended

. The trial court held, however, that defendants had reasonable grounds for believing that the ir act or omission was not a violation of the WHA. We agree with the trial court. InM ORRIS V
. S CENERA R ESEA RCH , LLC Opinion of the Court

- 12

- considering the evidence, defendants had reason to believ e that they did not owe plaintiff issuance bonuses. Therefore, we hold that defendants acted reasonably in not notifying defendant that he would not receive those bonuses. Plaintiff’s own testimony and complaint strongly support the conclusion that defendants acted reasonably. At his deposition, plaintiff stated that he was entitled to receive the issuance bonus “when the patent issue d from the U.S. Patent Office. ” When asked at trial if “Scenera’s obligated to pay an issuance bonus only if the pate nt issues,” plaintiff responded, “Under the agreement that I had, yes.” Plaintiff also testified that “[t]he issuance bonus w as due when the patent issued.” Finally, plaintiff’s complaint alleged that the issuance bonus became due “when a patent issued.” We thus affirm the Court of Appeals’ holding that the trial court properly denied plaintiff’s request for liquidated damages on the jury’s award of patent issuance bonuses. III We next address whether the Court of Appeals erred by affirming the trial

c ourt’s decision not to treble the jury’s award of REDA damages. The REDA provides that if “ the court finds that the employee was injured by a willful violation of [the section prohibiting discriminatory or retaliatory action by an employer] , the court sha ll treble the amount awarded.” N.C .G.S. § 95

- 243 (c) (2015 ). But REDA does not define the term “willful , ” and we have not addressed the term in this context. TheM ORRIS V
. S CENERA R ESEA RCH , LLC Opinion of the Court

- 13

- Court of Appeals adopted the standard used by federal courts in addressing the Fair Labor St andards Act ( FLSA ) , holding that a willful FLSA violation is “one in which the employer ‘ either knew or showed reckless disregard for the matter of whether its conduct was prohibited by [the] statute. ’ ” Morris , 229 N.C. App. at 51 , 747 S.E.2d at 375 (quoting McLaughlin v. Richland Shoe Co., 486 U.S. 128 , 133, 100 L. Ed. 2d 115 , 123 (1988) )

. Again looking to federal law for guidance, the Court of Appeals held that the determination of willfulness is a question of fact, i d. at 52, 747 S.E.2d at 375 (citing Formby v. Farmers & Merchs

. Bank, 904 F.2d 627, 632 (11th Cir. 1990) ( per curiam ) (determination of willfulness under Age Discrimination in Employment Act is a question of fact)), and adopted the competent evidence standard used in bench trials , i d. at 52, 747 S.E.2d at 375 ( citing In re Estate of Archibald, 183 N.C. App. 274, 276, 644 S.E.2d 264, 266 (2007) ). Finally, the Court of Appeals held that a determination of “willfulness” under REDA is “for the jury to decide, not for the judge.” Id. at 52, 747 S.E.2d at 375. 1 We agree with the Court of Appeals’ definition of “willfulness,” as well as its determination that whether defendants ’ violation of REDA was willful is one of fact. But , we disagree with its decision that the determination o f willfulness is one for the jury. The statute clearly establishes that damages shall be trebled under REDA if

1 Nonetheless, the court recognized that a party can waive its right to have a jury determine questions of fact and that plaintiff did so here by “explicitly concur[ring] with the business court’s suggestions that . . . Scenera’s ‘willfulness’ under REDA wa s for the court to decide.” Id. at 52, 747 S.E.2d at 375.M ORRIS V

- 14

- “ the court finds that the employee was injured by a willful violation .” N.C .G.S. § 95

- 243 (c) (emphasis added). Thus, the trial court must make the finding of willfulness, and a reviewing court must uphold the trial court’s finding of willfulness if there is competent evidence to support that finding. The record supports the trial court’s finding that defendants did not willfully violate REDA. P laintiff was the first party to suggest that he and Scenera “part ways” and “negot iate a termination agreement.” Plaintiff speculates that defendants’ retention of counsel is evidence that defendants attempt ed to conceal their REDA violations ; h owever, plaintiff cites no speci fic evidence indicating the existence of a

cover - up, and the record shows none. Defendants’ retention of counsel may simply demonstrate that they wished to comply with REDA. We thus hold that proving a willful violation of N.C .G.S. § 95

- 241 requires a showing of the accused party’s knowledge or reckless disregard of whether an action violated the statute and affirm the Court of Appeals ’ holding that competent evidence supported the trial court’s decision to not treble plaintiff ’s REDA award. I V Finally, we address defendant s ’ argument that plaintiff is not entitled to rescission. Defendant s argue that plaintiff is not entitled to rescission because monetary damages provide plaintiff with an adequate remedy , and because resciss ion would return plaintiff to a status quo that never existed . We agree.M ORRIS V

- Rescission is an equitable contract remedy that differs from its legal counterparts. While legal remedies generally compensate the non

. Brannock v. Fletcher , 271 N.C. 65, 73

. “R escission is not merely a termination of contractual obligation. It is abrogation or undoing of it from the beginning. ” Id. at 74, 155 S.E.2d at 542 ( cit ing Dooley v. Stillson , 46 R.I. 332, 335, 128 A. 217, 218 (1925) ). As with all equitab le remedies, rescission “ will not lend its aid in any case where the party seeking it has a full and complete remedy at law.” Jefferson Standard Life Ins. Co. v. Guilford C ounty , 225 N.C. 293, 300, 34 S.E.2d 430, 434 (1945) (citations omitted)

. A party may pursue rescission only if “there is a material breach of the contract going to the very heart of the instrument.” Wilson v. Wilson , 26 1 N.C. 40, 43, 134 S.E.2d 240, 242, 243 (1964). The Court of Appeals incorrectly applied the test for rescission. The court held that Scenera’s failure to pay plaintiff his patent bonuses was prima facie evidence of a material breach , and, b ecause defendants breached the contract materially, pl aintiff could pursue rescission. But , r escission cannot be the remedy for every material breach

. A party may pursue rescission only when a material breach occurs and all legal remedies falls short of compensating the injured party for its loss. Id. at 43, 134 S.E.2d at 243, see Jefferson Standard Life Ins. Co. , 225 N.C. at 300, 34 S.E.2d at 434

- Here, although defendants materially breached their contract with plaintiff, monetary damages sufficiently compensate plaintiff for his loss. Plaintiff’s entire claim is that defendants owe him $5,000 to $10,000 for each patent he created while employed at Scenera. Defendants owed plaintiff no other obligation under the
contract , and mo netary damages provide plaintiff with a full and complete remedy

. To hold otherwise would seriously undermine the rationale of the hired

invent doctrine. 2 As this Court explained in Speck , an employer takes a risk when hiring an employee to invent, because the employer has no guarantee of a return on its investment. 311 N.C. at 686, 319 S.E.2d at 143 ( in which this Court adopted the hired

- invent doctrine, holding that if the employee succeeds in inventing , “then the invention belongs to the emplo yer even though the terms of employment contain no express provision dealing with the ownership of whatever inventions may be developed.” ( quoting Nat’l Dev. Co. v. Gray , 316 Mass. 240, 247, 55 N.E.2d 783, 787 (1944) ) . If an employee is hired to invent bu t could later rescind that agreement and claim ownership of inventions made during his or her employment, the employee would end up in a far better position, and the employer in a far worse position, than when the parties reached their original bargain. T he employer’s risk would increase exponentially, thereby discouraging businesses and universities from undertaking
