IVB. There are four factories in the city of Gotham that are polluting the waterways. Each firm is currently producing 4 pounds of pollution; Managers will continue to pollute unless the local government intervenes. Managers will prefer to maximize economic profit by avoiding paying any costs to reduce or prevent pollution created by their business. The table below shows the marginal cost of cleaning up each pound of pollution. For example, the Gamma’s cost of cleaning up the third-pound of pollution is $180. Beta’s cost of cleaning up the first pound of pollution is $30. If Alpha cleaned up all four pounds of pollution, the total cost will be $320 (=40+40+80+160) i.e. add up the marginal cost.

7. Would you lie to save your Company? “I’m at my board meeting,” begins the CEO of a $20 million toy manufacturer, “and I get this fax from our largest customer saying that our Rupert the Robot, our biggest seller, was self-destructing. The customer said that it was considering removing all Ruperts from the shelf and returning them to us. “Within a couple of hours,” he continues, “I get another call saying that another major customer stated the same problem. Then an hour later, another call. And then another. In all, our biggest selling product would be returned by our major customers. If we have to refund money to our customers for returns, we would be facing a $40 million loss. Put delicately, the company would be ruined.” For us as a business, returns of this magnitude would have been the end. The CEO could imagine only what might happen once word of this reached all of his lenders. “I had short-term loans with about eight banks for an amount of money equal to my equity in the…
Your boss believes the company's power plant is producing too much air pollution on a typical island. Your boss gives you three choices for dealing with this problem because he/she does not want to deal with it: You can pay a pollution tax (Carbon Offsets) one time of $13,000,000 immediately. You can close the plant and install a power cable from the mainland to the Island. That will cost you $1,000,000 at the end of this year, $3,000,000 at the end of next year and then $750,000 forever for maintenance. You can retrofit the plant with scrubbers to reduce the emissions to make the plant green. That will cost $7.5m at the end of this year and $100,000 for 50-years for maintenance. Assume that the cost of generating power on the mainland is approximately the same as the cost of generating power at the Island's plant. Assume, this comes as a surprise to you and you, have not saved any money in reserves, and you need to raise capital. Additional information is that market has a…

4 Ethical Challenge One of the most complex ethical challenges facing for-profit organizations today is balancing their goal of being socially responsible with their obligation to shareholders to earn a profit. Firms generally hire executives to increase profits. No matter how much good a firm does in its community, if it doesn’t have a healthy bottom line, the executive may not be seen as a success. This is not unlike a college football coach who makes sure his players graduate every year, but consistently has a losing record. Odds are he won’t remain the coach very long, even though he does a number of socially responsible things. Executives at privately held companies have the right to make socially responsible decisions that might sacrifice revenue. Executives at publicly held companies have to answer to their shareholders, who expect profits and share prices to grow. Marketing executives at public companies frequently face situations that force them to choose between responsible…
