Answer: A. deep-seated disparity in the distribution of wealth

Explanation:

Systematic inequality arises when there is a deep-seated difference in how wealth is distributed in an economy system. When looking at it from a global point of view, it is shown with the disparity in income between the first and third world countries.

Systematic inequality on a global scale can largely be attributed to colonialism as most first world nations colonized the rest of the world and took a lot of their resources when doing so. Even today, they engage in neo-colonialist practices that continue to increase the wealth disparity.

What are the issues of integrity, ethics and law posed in the case study? What options does the woman have, and what should she
Dovator [93]

The integrity, ethics, and law issues raised in the case study are illegal and unethical conduct.

The woman must reject the economic proposal made by the company and maintain her complaint so that the executive is judged for what she did because she would avoid future harm to other employees.

<h3>What is ethics?  </h3>

Ethics is a term that refers to moral philosophy. This focuses on the study of human behavior based on right and wrong according to duty. Contemporary ethics is usually divided into three branches which are:

  • Metaethics studies the origin, nature, and meaning of ethical concepts.
  • Normative ethics seeks norms or standards to regulate human conduct.
  • Applied ethics examines specific ethical controversies.

According to the above, it can be inferred that the situation presented is an example of an unethical and illegal act because the company and the executive want to bribe the employee to prevent the executive from being removed from his position and the company from being judged for endorsing that conduct of the executive.

Note: The question is incomplete because the information is missing. Here is the complete information:

Case study 4

A woman is sexually harassed by a top-level senior executive in a large company. She sues the company, and during settlement discussions she is offered an extremely large monetary settlement. In the agreement, the woman is required to confirm that the executive did nothing wrong, and after the agreement is signed the woman is prohibited from discussing anything about the incident publicly. Before the date scheduled to sign the settlement agreement, the woman's lawyer mentions that she has heard the executive has done this before, and the settlement amount is very large because the company probably had a legal obligation to dismiss the executive previously. The company however wants to keep the executive because he is a big money maker for the company.

What are the issues of integrity, ethics and law posed in the case study? What options does the woman have, and what should she do and why?

Lecturer Guidelines

Some of the issues raised by this case study include initial issues of unethical and unlawful conduct, by the executive and the company; whether the company should allow the executive to continue working because of the revenue he generates, in view of his propensity to harm co-workers, and whether this action is ethical or reflects integrity; whether the company should require the woman to state that the executive did nothing wrong as part of the settlement agreement; whether the woman should agree to this settlement in view of the harm future employees are being exposed to; and whether the woman is prioritising justice for herself over harm to future employees in an acceptable way.

vfiekz [6]

Variable costs per unit:

        Direct materials                                                                         $ 165

         Direct labor                                                                                $ 72

         Variable manufacturing overhead                                            $ 8

Fixed Overheads per unit:

       Fixed manufacturing overhead ($535,500/10,500)                  $ 51

Unit product cost                                                                                $296

Part b. Compute the unit product cost under variable costing.

Variable costs per unit:

        Direct materials                                                                         $ 165

         Direct labor                                                                                $ 72

         Variable manufacturing overhead                                            $ 8

Unit product cost                                                                                $245

Explanation:

Part a. Compute the unit product cost under absorption costing.

Absorption costing treats fixed overheads as part of product cost and hence fixed manufacturing overheads are included in unit product cost at their absorption rate

Part b. Compute the unit product cost under variable costing.

Variable Costing System treats fixed overheads as a Period Cost and not part of product cost hence fixed manufacturing overheads are excluded in unit product cost

The 20% off sale is a better deal than the $200 rebate or $150 coupon for the $1,500 dining set. The Porters budgeted $1,250 for
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:20% off is better and it is the only offer which is under the budget.

Explanation:Given,

The original cost of the dining set = $ 1,500,

If there is a off of 20%,

Then the discount on dinning table = 20% of 1500

= $ 300

So, the final amount of the dinning table after 20% off = 1500 - 300 = 1200 < 1250

Thus, it under the budget.

Now, in $ 200 rebate,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 200 = $ 1300 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.

While, In $150 coupon,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 150 = $ 1350 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.
