Ethical dilemma: Sunflower Manufacturing has applied for a $10 million working capital loan at The Democrat Federal Bank (known as The Democrat). But the person who is evaluating the loan application, Sheli, has determined that the bank should lend the company only $2 million. Sheli’s analysis of Sunflower suggests that the company does not have the financial strength to support the higher loan.
