After reading the A7D Affair (p. 31-34), post a response to the following question. Who was to blame for what happened at BF Goodrich and why? Also, are there any similarities between what happened at BF Goodrich and what happened at Enron? Which of Christopher Stone's aspects of corporate culture do you think contributed to what happened at both corporations? What sort of advice would Solomon give to both companies?

Peppy knows a lot about marketing, but not much about the legal or financial aspects of starting a new business. he wants to consult with a lawyer and accountant, but his budget is tight with all of the expenses involved in getting peppy's pizzazzeria up and running. peppy should: trust his basic instincts and try to put it together without the advice of lawyers and accountants. delay talking with a lawyer and accountant until the business has established a positive cash flow for at least one year. immediately hire full-time lawyers and accountants for his staff. consult with a lawyer and accountant even though the budget is tight.
