You have just completed a grueling 10-day business trip calling on two dozen accounts in Latin America. There were even business meetings combined with social events late into the night and on the weekends. On the flight back home at the end of this marathon, you are tired and feeling as if you have not seen your family for a month. As you work on completing your expense report, you say to yourself, "The company does not pay me enough for the work that I do." For more than a few moments, you think about padding your expense report to make up for all the extra hours and time away from your family. Would it be okay to add "extra expenses" to compensate for the hardship of the trip?

1/List all the stakeholders who are involved in this scenario. For each stakeholder, briefly explain how they are involved and impacted by the scenario.

2/List and briefly describe any assumptions, potential problems, or questions raised by your analysis that are NOT mentioned in the textbook's description of the scenario. Examples might include "Are company policies clear?",

"How well do you know this person who is asking you for a favor?", etc.

3/List at least three possible alternative solutions to this problem.

4/ Analyze each of the solutions you listed in the previous question in detail. Be sure to include potential problems you might encounter, unanticipated consequences of each alternative, etc.

5/Indicate which alternative you chose and briefly explain why you decided that it was the best solution for this problem.

6/Briefly evaluate how your decision turned out. To answer this question, you may have to recall a similar incident within your own experience and relate what happened. Another way would be to speculate how you think this scenario may have turned out given your solution.
