    Here are the possible answers:

    a) making the best possible ethical choice.

    b) going to make a terrific President of the United States some day.

    c) none of these.

    d) ultimately going to be rewarded by having the most profitable car

    The answer is: c) none of these.

    Explanation:

    Ethics in industries related to manufacturing things that are of critical importance to public safety and security is very important.

    The behavior of a manager like Lee is deemed as highly unethical, as he puts the marketing and design need in front of an essential need such as safety compliance.

    Regardless of the ethics perspective, it is also irrelevant to state that this kind of car would be the most profitable. That could be possibly true in the short-run (due to intensive design and marketing efforts), but on the other hand, a critical dose of bad PR when an accident occurs (due to low safety improvement efforts) can be devastating for the company's profit in the long run.
