QveST [7]

Answer: In order to answer this, we must first add the options. They are as follows:

A. Am I acting fairly?

B. Is it balanced?

C. How will it make me feel about myself?

D. Will it help me further my career?

E. Is it legal?

The correct option is D. Will it help me further my career. This is a question that should NOT be asked when facing an ethical dilemma.

Explanation:

Ethics are moral principal that guide one's actions and attitudes. Now, all the options above can be properly weighed using ethical standards.

An Ethical dilemma is a situation in which a choice must be made between two options, neither of which will resolve the situation in an ethically acceptable manner.

We will analyze the options one after the other.

Let us start with option A. Am I acting fairly?

When faced with an ethical dilemma, one good question to ask is if an individual is acting fairly, that is, are they acting according to accepted ethical standards? If one's actions go contrary to ethics, then they should probably not undertake such an action. Therefore, this question SHOULD BE ASKED.

Option B. Is it balanced?

Balance here talks about equality. In this case this question looks at whether the action will favour one party over another, or if it will favour everyone equally. Therefore, this question SHOULD BE ASKED.

Option C. How will it make me feel about myself?

This question looks at the after effect of an action, if the action will make you feel good or bad about yourself later on. If the action will make you feel good, then it should be undertaken, but if it will make you feel bad, it should not be undertaken. Therefore, this question SHOULD BE ASKED.

Option D. Will it help me further my career? (Correct option)

This is a wrong question to ask when experiencing an ethical dilemma because it is not a question about ethics or morals, only career advancement, and it does not focus on the right or wrong of an action. Also, this is a selfish question to ask and it does not take into consideration the effect that the action will have on others. This question should therefore, NOT BE ASKED, because it is not a proper reflection of one's ethics.

Option E. Is it legal?

This question looks at the legality of an action, therefore illegal actions should not be undertaken, while legal actions should be pursued. This is a question that SHOULD BE ASKED.

I am trying to understand the Opportunity cost. Can anyone help me please? I can't seem to get Economics, I really need help. Yo

sesenic [268]

<span>Basically "Opportunity cost" is what you're going to lose (or have a potential to lose) if you chose a different action than what you're presented with. In the example, you're working for $15 an hour, but if you decide instead to skip a pratrice to go to the fair you're losing out of the $15 an hour you'll be paid and have to pay $9 to go to the fair. All total, you're opportunity costs for that will be $24 (fifteen you would have made plus the nine dollar fee.) This is also assuming, of course, they don't fire/dock you for just skipping work.</span>

Two firms, A and B, each currently dump 50 tons of chemicals into the local river. The government has decided to reduce the poll

vitfil [10]

Answer:

d. Firm A will spend $4,000.

Explanation:

Since Firm B cost of Cleanup before it gets the the river is less than the cost of pollution permits, it will choose to clean up its pollution.

However, since Firm A cleanup cost per ton ($100) is greater than the cost of the pollution permit, it will choose to buy permits.

Maximum Allowable Number of Permits=40

Therefore, Firm A will clean up 10 Tons and dump 40 Tons of Waste.

Cost =(10 Tons *$100)+(40 Tons * $75)

=$(1000+3000)

=$4000.

Firm A will spend $4000.
