The document discusses two ethical scenarios. In scenario 1, a charity auction held in the office was deemed ethical by the professional ethics model since it had support from other employees. Scenario 2 examines misleading the public for a good cause where repairing a police station now provides tangible immediate benefits, but could damage trust in the future, making the downside deferred.

A.
Scenario 1 - Holding Charity Auctions in the Office
- Based on the given scenario, the most appropriate ethical decision model that can be applied to Angela’s situation is the Professional Ethics Model since other bank employees (Roland, Joven, Janeth) expressed their support to the auction and convinced Justin to give permission showing “the approval of a broad cross-section of professional peers.”
B. Scenario 2 - Misleading for Good Purpose
- The disparity between the belief and and behavior in Vince’s situation is tangible or intangible, immediate or deferred. In the case of Vince, if he is willing to do what his boss ordered, there will be a direct benefit that is both intermediate and tangible. The police station will have a huge amount of money for repair and renovation. The downside is that maybe at some point in the future, people are going to find out about this and lose the trust of the people and the government. The benefit in this situation is immediate; the downside is deferred.
