Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Instrumental values prescribe desirable standards of conduct or methods for attaining an end. Terminal values prescribe desirable ends or goals for the individual.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Ethical dilemmas arise because management decisions are not simple cases of choosing between right and wrong. Organizations have duties and aspirations both in the economic and social arenas. Social responsibility cannot be an organization's only motivating influence; without solid fiscal performance an organization cannot usually be successful. On the other hand, neither can profit or production be the only motivator. Managers must therefore make tradeoffs.
