QUESTIONS

Should Aydin let someone else complete the transaction because he knows that if he doesn't sell to the North Koreans, someone else will?

What are the total costs given in the case of moving via Romania?

What are the total costs given in the case of moving via Syria?

Which option should Aydin recommend? Why?

What other costs and risks are involved in these proposed transactions, including those not mentioned in the case? How, if at all, should bribes be incorporated into the supply chain? What are their functions?

Is Aydin acting ethically if he organizes this transaction? Discuss.

What do you think should be done to bring moral values into the situation so that developing countries are more in line with Western standards? Keep in mind that the risks of doing business in such environments are much higher than the risks of doing business in Western markets. It's also worth noting that some cultures see bribery as a way to better distribute wealth among their citizens.
