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.

What is the expected value when a $1 lottery ticket is bought in which the purchaser wins exactly $10 million if the ticket cont
Nadusha1986 [10]

We expect to lose $0.37 per lottery ticket

<u>Explanation:</u>

six winning numbers from = { 1, 2, 3, ....., 50}

So, the probability of winning:

P(win) = \frac{ no of favorable outcomes}{no of possible outcomes}

P(win) = \frac{1}{^5^0C_6} \\\\P (win) = \frac{6! X (50 - 6)!}{50!} \\\\P(win) = \frac{6! X 44!}{50!} \\\\P(win) = \frac{1}{15,890,700}

The probability of losing would be:

P(loss) = 1 - P(win)

P(loss) = 1 - \frac{1}{15,890,700} \\\\P(loss) = \frac{15,890,699}{15,890,700}

According to the question,

When we win, then we gain $10 million and lose the cost of the lottery ticket.

So,

$10,000,000 - 1 = $9,999,999

When we lose, then we lose the cost of the lottery ticket = $1

The expected value is the sum of the product of each possibility x with its probability P(x):

E(x) = ∑ xP(x)

= 9,999,999 X \frac{1}{15,890,700}  + ( -1 ) X \frac{15,890,699}{15,890,700} \\\\=- \frac{5,890,700}{15,890,700} \\\\= - \frac{58,907}{158,907} \\\\= - 0.37

Thus, we expect to lose $0.37 per lottery ticket

hoa [83]

Answer:

Journal Entry

Dr. Contingent Consideration Liability $500,000

Cr. Goodwill $500,000

Explanation:

It is assumed that the decline in the fair value is the correction of the acquisition entry. It means due to this event the consideration liability and goodwill are overstated we need to rectify the balances.

Hence,

The contingent consideration liability will be debited to reduce the liability and goodwill will also be decreased by crediting the goodwill account.
