Question

"An automotive company was looking to expand internationally and selected three possible countries in which to build a factory. All three of the potential counties had government officials who made it clear that for a little extra kickback, they would be willing to make the process much smoother to build a plant. In one country, the government official indicated his brother-in-law had the perfect piece of land to use as well. This company has run into what type of common ethical challenges?"

Answer 1

Answer: bribery and conflict of interest

Step-by-step explanation: In simple words, bribery refers to the act under which one individual tries to persuade the behavior of another individual for his benefit by offering him or her monetary benefits.

Whereas, conflict of interest refers to a situation when someone has the authority to make decisions that benefits himself more than the entity he is working for.

Hence we can conclude that the above case depicts bribery and conflict of interest.
