The determination of the amount of damages commensurate with the factual findings upon which it is based is primarily the task of the trial court. [45] The Court of Appeals may modify that amount only when its factual findings are diametrically opposed to that of the lower court,[46] or the award is palpably or scandalously and unreasonably excessive.[47] However, exemplary damages that are awarded by way of example or correction for the public good,[48] should be reduced to P50,000.00, the amount correctly awarded by the Court of Appeals. Concomitantly, the award of moral damages of P100,000.00 was excessive and should be likewise reduced to P50,000.00. Similarly, attorneys fees that should be granted on account of the award of exemplary damages and petitioners evident bad faith in refusing to satisfy private respondents plainly valid, just and demandable claims, [49] appear to have been excessively granted by the trial court and should therefore be reduced to P25,000.00. WHEREFORE, the instant petition for review on certiorari is DENIED. The partnership among petitioners and private respondent is ordered dissolved, and the parties are ordered to effect the winding up and liquidation of the partnership pursuant to the pertinent provisions of the Civil Code. This case is remanded to the Regional Trial Court for proper proceedings relative to said dissolution. The appealed decisions of the Regional Trial Court and the Court of Appeals are AFFIRMED with MODIFICATIONS, as follows --- 1. Petitioners are ordered to submit to the Regional Trial Court a formal account of the partnership affairs for the years 1987 and 1988, pursuant to Article 1809 of the Civil Code, in order to determine private respondents ten percent (10%) share in the net profits of the partnership; 2. Petitioners are ordered, jointly and severally, to pay private respondent five percent (5%) overriding commission for the one hundred and fifty (150) cookware sets available for disposition since the time private respondent was wrongfully excluded from the partnership by petitioners; 3. Petitioners are ordered, jointly and severally, to pay private respondent overriding commission on the total production which, for the period covering January 8, 1988 to February 5, 1988, amounted to P32,000.00; 4. Petitioners are ordered, jointly and severally, to pay private respondent moral damages in the amount of P50,000.00, exemplary damages in the amount of P50,000.00 and attorneys fees in the amount of P25,000.00.
