Answer: option 3
Explanation:
Background to the case:
The cases involving the explosion of Ford Pinto's due to a defective fuel system design led to the debate of many issues, most centering around the use by Ford of a cost-benefit analysis and the ethics surrounding its decision not to upgrade the fuel system based on this analysis.
Basis of analysis:
Should a risk/benefit analysis be used in situations where a defect in manufacturing could lead to seriously bodily harm and even worse death, such as in the Ford Pinto situation?
Rule of the court:
There hasn’t really been a definite decision about the case and arguments both for and against such an analysis have been made. It is an economically efficient method which has been accepted by courts for numerous years, however, juries may not always agree, so companies should take this into account.
Discretion is expected to be used.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
I agree with the owner of the company
Explanation:
The overall losses are $40,000 per month and the fixed costs are $30,000 per month.
The company should stop production because the losses are over fixed cost and this tells us that the company is not even able to recover the variable costs and because the variable costs are not at least recovered, there would be no point for the company to continue in the business as it would keep on making a loss and the logic might be wrong regarding sunk costs but the decision must be taken in favour where production should be stopped.
 
        
             
        
        
        
The appropriate response is Affective. This part manages sentiments or feelings that are conveyed to the surface about something, for example, dread or despise.

Answer:
Project S = $672.48
Project L = $11,500
Explanation:
Net Present Value (NPV) Is Calculated by Taking the Present day (Discounted) Value of all future Net Cash flows based on the Business Cost of Capital and Subtracting the Initial Cost of the Investment.
Using a Financial Calculator NPV calculations will be as follows:
Project S
CF0 = ( $11,000)
CF1  = $3,400
CF2  = $3,400
CF3  = $3,400
CF4  = $3,400
CF5  = $3,400
i = 14 %
NPV = $672.48
Project L
CF0 = ( $23,000)
CF1  = $6,900
CF2  = $6,900
CF3  = $6,900
CF4  = $6,900
CF5  = $6,900
i = 14 %
NPV = $11,500.
