Answer:

The correct option is (d)

Explanation:

Ethics is considered above law as law requires just compliance of laws, rules and regulations. Ethics on the other hand establishes a standard of moral conduct. Being mere legal does not mean that something is ethical. Ethical responsibilities are not codified as it is expected from businesses to follow the same.

Here, Marshall, though complied with legal frameworks, he failed to fulfill his ethical obligations by using low-grade products that could harm the general public in future.
