Extracted text: Many bonus plans are based upon the attainment of some specified short-term goal. For example, sales personnel at Metal Crafters are given a bonus of 5% of the amount by which their sales exceed $100,000. Sometimes the attainment of these goals is achieved by methods detrimental to the long-term needs of the company. Sales representative Sara Crown, for example, finds herself tempted to court certain customers that place large orders, even though she knows they may not be able to pay. She complains that the bonus system itself is unethical Required: Is a bonus system like the one at Metal Crafters unethical? Explain.
