Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: Jossleman is exhibiting a socioeconomic view rather than a classical view of social responsibility. She is showing a concern for social welfare beyond profits by choosing the alternative that is less profitable but better for the society. Jossleman is clearly adhering to all laws, so neither social obligation nor no social obligation describes her position.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: Sustainability gives a company a positive image in the public's mind, making it seem ethical and avoiding the potentially disastrous fallout of taking a socially irresponsible position. Efficiency is one thing that is not generally associated with sustainability. In fact, many sustainability measures actually decrease company efficiency slightly, a price most responsible managers are willing to pay.
