[WSBARP] PR Compensation

[Ken Luce]

A will provides that "neither my executor or alternate should receive any compensation as I have provided for them in this will".  The will also says, "I give to my Executor the sum of $5,000 for his or her service as my executor".

My question is if the administration of an estate is complicated and time consuming is an executor limited to the  provision in the will limiting their compensation or would they be entitled to compensation for the numerous hours it actually took?
