The marketing manager of ToyBiz indicated that due to manufacturing efficiencies and market buzz, a new toy they were about to launch was likely to generate revenue beyond original projections. The lead designer reported that lab tests showed a risk that the toy could malfunction, possibly injuring a user, but that the design met required industry standards. By deciding to launch the toy as designed, what criterion of decision making were company executives ignoring

Ethicalness

Ethics as to do with moral principle, empathy to recognize feelings of others and opting to stick with morally good or acceptable choices and avoiding the opposite irrespective of standard laws or financial gains.

With ToyBiz choosing to ignore the potential injury posed to users of it's new launch and sticking to decision which offers a higher profit as long as it doesn't violate standard design principle, Ethicalness has been ignored in their decision.

a naked warrant, also known as a covered warrant, is a derivative that allows the holder to buy or sell a security, such as a bond or share. unlike a normal warrant, it is not attached to a newly issued bond or preferred stock.

unsecured bonds: they are not secured by a specific asset, but rather by "the full faith and credit" of the issuer. in other words, the investor has the issuer's promise to repay but has no claim on specific collateral. debt, such as unsecured bond debt, is said to be “subordinated,” or junior, to secured debt.

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
