Answer 1

Indeterminable

Step-by-step explanation:

Q- Vivian's company is considering building a huge new department store in a small town. The community argues that the store will disrupt local commerce and harm local business owners. Vivian argues that the store will save money for customers and bring more jobs to the community. Assume both arguments are true. "

A- Indeterminable because assuming both arguments are true. We can not determine who is right because building a new department store creates job opportunities and saves money, but it also harms local business owners.

NOTE-But if Vivian's argument is true then it is stakeholder moral theory.

Select Indeterminable if both arguments are true assumed.
