Ethical dilemmas have always surrounded businesses. For example, Jeffrey is a Senior Auditor working for a large commercial bank. He just realized Bob, the company’s vice president of marketing, has been using his expense account to purchase salacious materials online using his office computer; in addition, there are hotel bills charged to the account that cannot be explained by travel receipts. Jeffrey suspects the VP is having an affair with someone in the company. Jeffery is a CPA and the company where he works is publically traded. The CPA code-of-ethics and company policy requires Jeffrey to report the violation. Nevertheless, Bob is Jeffrey’s first cousin! Reporting the violation could destroy relations between Jeffrey’s mother and his aunt, Bob’s mother. What can Jeffrey do as a senior auditor to set the ethical standards in the company that he is working in? Which of the ethical theories best explains Jeffrey’s moral dilemma? How can one of the six theories you learned about in this chapter help Jeffrey to justify whistle blowing or help him to rationalize not whistle blowing?

'Higher than usual demand' for toilet paper in NSW supermarkets

Premier Gladys Berejiklian has asked shoppers to remain calm after reports of bare toilet paper shelves in NSW following the reinstatement of product limits in Victorian supermarkets.

Toilet paper was in short supply at Coles and Woolworths at Roselands in Sydney's south-west on Thursday, the Herald has been told.

Posting on social media, shoppers also complained of empty shelves at Coles Merrylands and Woolworths Leichhardt in Sydney, as well as Coles Toronto in Lake Macquarie.

On Wednesday afternoon Coles, Woolworths and IGA said they would reinstate product limits for toilet paper, hand sanitiser, paper towels, flour, sugar, pasta, minced meat, long-life milk, eggs and rice at all their Victorian stores.

Coles, on Friday, reintroduced one-pack purchase limits for toilet paper and paper towels across all of its stores, including Coles online.

"We ask that customers continue to shop normally so that everyone can have access to the food and groceries they need," a spokesperson said.

Costco, which has stores at Marsden Park, Crossroads and Auburn, has also reintroduced a one-per-person limit on its toilet paper packs nationwide.

It is believed the panic buying, which was witnessed earlier in the pandemic, is being caused by an uptick in coronavirus cases in Melbourne over the past week.

Victoria reported its ninth day of double-digit case growth on Thursday, with 33 new cases.

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said on Friday that shoppers need to "stay calm" as there was no need for items to be stockpiled.

"Please continue to maintain your calm; continue to do what you've been doing – NSW is doing incredibly well," Ms Berejiklian said, adding that she didn't "blame" people for being concerned as product limits were reintroduced in Victoria amid an uptick in cases.

"We all have to be on our guard, but we certainly, certainly don't need to change our normal buying habits. So please continue with your normal buying habits, there's nothing to worry about."

A Woolworths spokesperson said they had seen "higher than usual" demand for toilet paper in parts of NSW, and were monitoring the situation.

“We’ve seen pockets of higher-than-usual demand for toilet roll across parts of NSW [on Thursday], but not anywhere near the levels we saw in Victoria," the spokesperson said.

"We’ll keep a close eye on demand over the coming days. We continue to ask customers to buy only what they need, as there is plenty of stock to replenish our shelves.”

Question :

1. Evaluate the outcomes in the market for toilet paper in terms of Pareto efficiency, fairness, and the effect on the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if:

(a) no restrictions are imposed by supermarkets.

(b) purchase-limit restrictions are imposed by supermarkets.

Include appropriate diagrams to illustrate your answers.

2. Suggest and explain two other ways the problem in this market could be solved. Evaluate these alternative solutions in terms of Pareto efficiency and fairness.
