Answer to Question 1
Answer: C
Explanation: Ethics is concerned with the evaluation of actionswhether they are right or wrongrather than the conditions of good and evil that often underlie those actions. This indicates that principles that define right and wrong is the correct choice for this question and rules that define good and evil is incorrect. Questions of whether acts are legal or illegal are also related to ethics, but legal and illegal refer to formal written laws covering a wide array of issues while ethics generally refers to more basic moral principles that always focus on right and wrong. Standards of decency are also related to ethics, but they are more concerned with what is socially acceptable rather than what is right and wrong.
Answer to Question 2
Answer: B
Explanation: A rights view of ethics is concerned with protecting the rights of individuals to enjoy individual liberties such as free speech and due process, so both rights and individual liberties are not correct responses for this question. A theory of justice view of ethics is concerned with issues like a living wageemployees are entitled to be paid enough to live on no matter what the law says or other circumstances dictate. The theory of justice view stands in direct contradiction to the utilitarian view, the correct response here, that states that productivity is all that matters with regard to pay and that abstract ideas such as justice or fairness should not be considered for this issue.
