And prices began dropping as much as 20% to 40%, as specials and advertised sales became more widespread.

10. Are business practices becoming more unethical? There is no easy answer. In America, bribery, price fixing, embezzlement, monopolizing, and other illegal practices cost consumers more than $40 billion a year in higher prices and taxes. A spokesperson for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce says that the extent of bribes, kickbacks, and payoffs is “pervasive”. A recent study of 3,000

executives by the American Management Association found that most employees felt pressure from their companies to compromise their personal values. Another study by the Opinion Research Center of 531 top and middle managers reported that 48% felt that it would be all right to pay bribes to foreign officials if that were an accepted way of doing business in that country.
