Chapter 2, Problem 1DQ
Summary Introduction

Interpret:The range and inclusiveness of the coverage of the value statement by an organization.

Introduction:A value statement of an organization reveals to the members of society with whom it interacts; the standards and practices it will follow during the course of its operations.
