Question:
In the first occurrence, an auditor came by to analyze all of their financials, so Larry gave the auditor the numbers, and Larry was later told by the company owner to basically alter the numbers to make it look like they didn't make as much money as they actually had to avoid higher insurance premiums.
In the second scenario, To prevent the employees from collecting unemployment, the company paid employees for hours they didn't actually work kind of like they loaned them hours. When the spring came around the business was booming, employees would "pad back" those hours they collected in the off-season.
Question: 1) Given the ethical dilemma that Larry described, would you have handled the situation differently?
2) Discuss possible, alternative courses of action to handling/addressing this ethical dilemma.
