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

OPTIONS:

A. economic feasibility

B. legality

C. ethicalness

D. practicality

E. functionality

C. ethicalness

Explanation:

Ethicalness as to do with the quality of how morally right a a course of action is. It borders on principles of morality. As stated in the question above, it is already a known fact that the toy has  a risk of malfunctioning which could most likely cause injury to the user. Going ahead to launch s toy that can cause injury is morally not right, even though the toy met the set industry standards. We can imply that ethicalness was ignored by the company executive in the decision making.
