Answer:

escalation of commitment bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Escalation of commitment bias is a situation that involves an individual knowing that he is wrong and being aware of the consequences his actions have caused but at the same time being adamant and refusing to change such behavior/action.

Dale being committed to making the used copier even after several warnings from his employees about the issues it has explains him exhibiting an escalation of commitment bias.
