For this essay, I will be reviewing a case where dishonest business examination procedures were performed by a company. This specific business was unquestionably captivated in immoral research performance. This is a pharmaceutical corporation that operated with a university professor that supplied the required research linked to the medication of flu (Dominick & Wimmer, 2010). Throughout the course of their agreement, the professor was requested to maintain the research information secretly and not to divulge any information to other people. The business did not want the professor to divulge information because the company was holding back important information, thus arbitrating the company as unethical. The pharmaceutical company wanted to ensure that the company received high rates, regardless if the investigation was accurate at the rate of shared interests. Understandably, the inmates who are infected with the flu were extremely frustrated and upset with the circumstances as they are. The pharmaceutical company had no plans to give the earnings of the investigation to developing countries. The pharmaceutical corporation was supposed to provide factual data to developed countries, then to developing countries. The purpose was to ensure financial growth for the company. However, the examination was not going to be provided to developing countries preventing others from being spared or treated from the flu. Had the information been provided, many people may have been aided if the information accessible to residents remaining in developing countries. Unfortunately, the
