Assume that the following hold true for the US and China, and assume that the growth rate listed will remain the same over the next century and a half. (The numbers given are fairly close to the current values, but the assumption that the growth rates will remain constant for the next 150 years is pretty ridiculous. Still, go with it.)
| US | China | |
| annual growth rate of nominal GDP | 3.5% | 6.5% |
| annual inflation rate | 1.5% | 2% |
| annual growth rate of pop | 1% | .5% |
| current real GDP per capita | $57,000 | $8,000 |

Kurt Helfter graduated with a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering and joined Andrew Consulting, a firm specializing in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) for small to medium-size business structures. Kurt is knowledgeable in the use of CAD (computerassisted design) and was pleased during his initial employment to find Andrew Consulting a leader in the use of CAD software. During Kurt's third year at Andrew, he felt a sense of unease with the firm's slow pace in updating computer hardware and software. Although not directly involved in budgeting for the firm, Kurt has been satisfied with the resources that Andrew provided for his use. Kurt felt the need to detail his concerns in a memo to his superior, in which he requested significant investment in computer resources to "allow us to respond to clients' needs, both in quantity and quality." Kurt was surprised and hurt when he received his superior's response, which suggested that resource allocation in the firm is decided at a higher administrative level. "But all I wanted to do was help keep our firm competitive," Kurt responded to his boss when visiting him about the rejection memo. "Sorry, Kurt," his boss said, "That's how things get done in this firm." Kurt now feels lost, wondering if it's time to look for another job. Does this situation suggest what type of budgeting process the company is using? Is there a problem with individual and company goal congruence in Andrew Consulting? If so, how might Kurt's supervisor have prevented the problem?

An unlevered company with a cost of equity of 15% generates $7 million in earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) each year. The decides to alter its capital structure to include debt by adding $2 million in debt with a pre-tax cost of 8% to its capital structure and using the proceeds to reduce equity by a like amount as to keep total invested capital unchanged.

For those who are trying to make moral decisions,
|
it is impossible to make progress on controversial ethical issues unless everyone shares the same moral theory. |
||
|
endorsing a moral principle doesn't require you to apply it in all similar situations. |
||
|
moral judgments don't have to be related to some general moral principles. |
||
|
in a moral discussion, clarifying the facts and spelling out the principles to which people are appealing can help us to reach a solution. |
