Rare earths were discovered at Europium on 17th January 2020. In April 2020 after a review of the prospects for the Gadolinium site it was decided to abandon operations there. Exploration was still a work in progress at the Terbium site, but no decision had been made about the commercial potential of that site. Development of the Europium site had continued during the year and at 30th June 2020 $36 million had been incurred. These costs are to be written off on a production basis.
This cost relates to the construction of plant and equipment. It is estimated that there are 150,000 tonnes of rare earth which has a current sale price of $3,500 per tonne. By the 30th June 2020 15,000 tonnes had been extracted at a production cost of $6 million of which 12,000 tonnes were sold.

Very personal questions about family background, age, marital status and religion are asked at the interviews.
Preference is given to anyone who has family already working for the company. A person with good credentials but no connections through family or close friends to the company will not be hired.
Religion creates rank. People of one religion would only be hired for menial positions while people of the other main religion could be hired for any position.
Women are paid 2/3 the salary of men for doing the same job and married women can only work at this company if they have their husband’s permission.
Employees are promised one wage at the interview but paid a lower wage in reality.
Please answer the following questions:
All of the differences are legal and normal in Country H. Does that make them ethical? Why or why not?
What would you do? Would you go along with their practices? Would you try to change the minds of the people you supervise and change the ethics of this company? Would you give up the job because of ethical concerns and fly home?
Choose whether it would be better to use ends-based thinking, rule-based thinking, or care-based thinking to make a decision as to what course of action to take in this situation, and say why.

Vaughn Company began operations late in 2019 and adopted the
conventional retail inventory method. Because there was no
beginning inventory for 2019 and no markdowns during 2019, the
ending inventory for 2019 was $13,869 under both the conventional
retail method and the LIFO retail method. At the end of 2020,
management wants to compare the results of applying the
conventional and LIFO retail methods. There was no change in the
price level during 2020. The following data are available for
computations.
