You are a production manager for a medium$-$sized business that is seeking to grow. To cut costs and increase profits,

the CEO thinks production should be outsourced to another country where wages are much lower. Outsourcing

production, however, would mean firing at least $50\%$ of the employees in your division, many of whom are very close

friends of yours. Additionally, businesses in the country where production would be outsourced sometimes use child

labor and $$sweatshop$$ working conditions that offer very low pay; while these practices appear to be generally

accepted in the country under consideration, they do not align with the values your company espouses. The CEO says

that outsourcing production is essential for continued growth and would allow the business to have a much greater

positive impact on the world by offering the product at a more affordable price to customers
