You are the buyer for a retail-clothing store. Your store has a policy of not accepting gifts from clients or salesmen. However, over the years, salesmen have offered, and other employees have accepted lunch, theater, and baseball tickets. You arrive home from the office and find a new TV and DVD player on your doorstep with a note that says: "A personal gift for our long-standing friendship. Enjoy it with your family in good health. The Jones Clothing Company."

How would you answer the three ethical questions?

• Is it legal? Explain why or why not.
• Is it balanced? Explain why or why not
• Describe how this situation makes you feel?
