Folder Permissions Changed After Moving to a New Location

In the process of purging our file system, my boss recently took an
ex-employee's folder and moved it into a subfolder of her protected folder.

The folder was initially setup to inherit permissions from the top level of
the shared drive and was open to everyone. The folder it was dragged into was
created under a folder that is restricted to my boss and the administrator.

Somehow, after it was dragged over, we were completely locked out of it. I
remedied the problem by taking ownership and adding the correct permissions,
but am wondering if anyone knows why this happened and how we can avoid it in
the future?
