Should Selling Tickets At A Higher Price Than The Actual Cost Be Illegal?

That's all the money you need for concert tickets, this money could be going for other things. This is why it is important to go against these prices and not purchase any tickets until prices are lowered. This is an idea Sanci should have stated but instead she says she will continue to purchase these tickets, no matter how expensive because “she is a loyal fan”. This is what throws off the whole article,Sanci’s last sentence. Even tho she wants tickets prices to go down, she will still purchase if prices stay the same. If Sanci can’t support her own argument than why would anyone that reads this paper support

Ticket prices can have a major impact on professional sports. The difference in ticket prices are what helps and hurts attendance at professional sporting events. When it comes to ticket prices there are many factors that can affect the price per ticket. In this review there are three main categories that are being focused on: (a) attendance, (b) pricing strategies and (c) ticket sales. Each category has different factors that affect ticket prices differently. In attendance, there was the economic crisis that started in late 2007. Strikes can happen at any time in professional sports. There is also the probability about the opposing team and its affect on ticket prices for those events. For pricing strategies, there are two main

The recent Time Magazine article "Post-Sandy Price Gouging: Economically Sound, Ethically Dubious," evaluates the recent price gouging by businesses during Hurricane Sandy (Futrelle). Examples of price gouging include raising prices on batteries and gas to astronomic levels, with the knowledge that the captive public audience will purchase the products regardless of the price. Businesses that have raised prices include bodegas, supermarkets and gas stations. Although such price gouging is undeniably an economically profitable business measure, the article argues that it is ethically dubious since it takes advantage of the public.

The state agency: The state agency’s reputation could be at stake, although the company were doing unethical practices but they were having a good intention of helping those in need. The state agency could be facing bad publicity against the case. The state agency’s funding is at stake, as the scandal spreads there might be people who does not want to continue the donation. Also, state agency’s ability of distributing funds could be doubt during the process.

Events that are in high demand would be subject to higher fees than those with lower demand. This would be beneficial to StubHub cause the lower fees could help stimulate the user into purchasing the event tickets purely because psychologically they feel as if they 're receiving a good bargain. In addition, StubHub could look to its parent company, eBay, for a unique pricing model to attract customer. If StubHub were to introduce an auction style selling system, they could help boost the sales of tickets by having users bid for thickets causing the price to increase accordingly. This unique action style selling of tickets would give them a large competitive advantage over any other online ticketing site, that doesn 't have a feature similar to this. The implementation of these new pricing models would be an ERP improvement step. By controlling and presenting the service fees and prices of tickets, they are able to control their supply cain of ticket and have lower demanded tickets selling even if its for a lower fee. Overall, StubHub would see higher ticket sales and customer satisfaction because users would be inclined to purchase more if they 're paying less and feel happier when evaluating the purchase post-sale.

There is always a conductor of corruption, an authority figure who knowingly exploits the mind of others. They look at what they perceive is right versus what is actually right. In the case

I personally would consider the president of United Way, William Aramony’s expenditures unethical. The money

Each of these jurisdictions works together to keep aspects of FCPA from being violated. This law is not always prohibiting all payments to the foreign officials. The FCPA has an exception for anti-bribery prohibitions and that is called “ routine government action.” This exception is also given the names “facilitating” or “ grease payment.” The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act defines this “routine government action” as for a foreign official to perform in obtaining permits, licenses, or other official documents that enable then to do business in that country, processing government papers such as visa and work orders, protection services and conducting inspections, and anything that has similar nature (6). The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) has two affirmative defenses and they consist of assertion that payment in question was lawful under the laws of the foreign country, and the assertion that the payment was valued a bona fide expenditure (6). This affirmative defense is aimed to be for the issuer, domestic concern, or other person. In this affirmative defense there must be some type of written law authorizing or supporting the payment. The penalties for violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act are different from the provision that they fall under. For an individual and it is from the anti bribery

Thankfully, according to the article, the officials did contain all these fans that were acting out. But there shouldn’t have even been an opportunity for these fans to have access to performing this action. As an event planner, I would never undervalue my guests for an event and be prepared for the worst but hope for the best. This crowd control difficulty was a major safety issue that initiated from the poor planning from ticket sales. If there was a pre registration for this free event then officials could have predicted and planned more adequately in regards to the amount of security to have on board for the duration of the event. As a bonus for taking the time out to preregister, those attendees will be mailed a complimentary t-shirt prior to the event for their assistance in helping making the event a safer, more enjoyable celebration. I enjoyed that the planners took into account the seriousness of crowd control and strategically brainstormed with the idea of be proving physical tickets for people that attend this occasion. In addition, for the tragedy of the fifteen year old that was stabbed, this will be an incident a little more difficult to contain. Again, more security will be needed in order to diffuse situations as severe as these or lesser such as verbal or

Is it ethical for the Colombian government to use foreign aid to enhance its military technology while investing little in social and economic programs?

Ethical Issues prevail in every condition no matter how official or personal it is. Some of the ethical problems that may involve in this situation are fraudulent in financial accounting, misappropriation of assets and a tremendous amount of

Yes, I think that the payments outlined on pages 12 and 13 should be considered corrupt practices because of the way they were registered in the company’s books -it was in compliance with the FCPA because of the anti-bribery provision and the books and records provision.

The FCPA explicitly state that it is illegal for foreign business entities and individuals to engage in unlawful practices that include, making payments to foreign officials in an effort to attaining or retaining business (DOJ.gov, 2016). This is the United States law and holds true for Chinese government healthcare officials who worked under the reformed Healthcare system.

On one hand, it is obviously unethical to break the law and bribe but more importantly from a utilitarian perspective, this action will hurt the greater good or “stakeholders” who are the whole society. Bribing corrupt authorities will only perpetuate the corruption in those countries and once a company or individual has gone down that road it is very difficult to return. Bribery also encourages unfair competition that hurts the economy which eventually affects the whole

As stated before no two people are the same, and now two people’s thoughts are the same. But at the end of the day everyone’s views on ethics boils down to knowing right or wrong. For example, if someone were to rob a bank that person knows for a fact that is it wrong and that he may go to jail. There would be no “Maybe it was right for him to rob the bank.” This is the same for FIFA. Allowing bribes to be placed on the next place that should hold the world cup
