S-A E 221 (Ethics)
Joe Laramie owns and operates Joe's Burgers, a small fast food store, located at the edge of City
College campus in Newton, Ohio. After several very profitable years, Joe's Burgers began to
have problems. Most of the problems were related to Joe's expansion of the eating area in the
restaurant without corresponding increases in the food preparation area. Joe does not have the
cash or financial backing to expand further. He has therefore decided to sell his business.
William Sheets is interested in purchasing the business. However, he is located in another city
and is unfamiliar with Newton. He has asked Joe why he is selling Joe's Burgers. Joe replies that
his elderly mother requires extra care, and that his brother needs help in his manufacturing
business. Both are true, but neither is his primary reason for selling. Joe reasons that William
should not have asked him anyway, since profitable businesses don't come up for sale.
Required:
1. Identify the stakeholders in this situation.
2. Did Joe act ethically in not revealing fully his reasons for selling the business? Why or why
not?

Mary Baroni is a friend of yours from high school. She decided to become a beautician after
leaving high school, rather than to attend college. She recently opened her own shop, and has
contracted her services to a local hospital. She is paid a monthly fee for her services, and
receives a small gratuity from each of the patients.
She has just received her first set of financial statements from her accountant. She is quite upset.
The statements show a cash balance of $3,600 at the end of the month, but a net income of only
$500. She has written you a letter, asking you whether such a situation is possible, or whether
she should find another accountant.
Required:
Write a short letter to your friend. Use proper form. Answer her question completely, but briefly.
