What are the ethical dilemmas of the main characters in this case and explain why. Ehtical dilemmas include: taking things that dont belong to you, saying things you know are not true, giving or allowing false impressions, buying influence or engaing in conflict of interest, hiding or divulging information, taking unfair advantage, commiting acts of personal decadence, perpetrating interpersonal abusepermitting organizational abuse, violatin rules, condoning unethical actionsand balancing ethical dilemmas. Case: Tenron, INC large energy company is comprised of an exploration division, a development division, a transportation division, marketing division. The transportation division purchased natural gas from the company’s own gas development division, but the majority of the transportation division’s purchases were smaller private gas producers. The contracts called for the transportation division to take and pay for gas, regardless of whether or not it has resold the gas. Energy prices dropped dramatically, and the transportation division found that for every ten units of natural gas it was forced to take and pay for them the private gas producers, it could sell only one unit. At some point, the transportation division will not be able to continue this money-losing practice caused by its contracts with these gas producers. If the transportation division refuses to take delivery of the gas, the producers will sue (and they probably would win) Tenron, which has sufficient assets to pay these judgments. Or, Tenron could protect its assets by selling the transportation division. Then the new owner could threaten the gas producers that if they do not renegotiate the contracts, the new owners will put the new transportation company – which would have far fewer assets than Tenron had – into bankruptcy to protect the new company from paying the producers’ judgments. (The Bankruptcy Judge will discharge (cancel) all the debts, even court judgments, of the now bankrupt new company.)

The ethical dilemma is with the transportation division of Tenron Inc. which is forced to buy gas from private manufacturers who have contracts with the division. These contracts compel the division to buy the gas even if it has lose money on account of not being able to sell the gas. If it dicontinues this practice, it is liable to be sued by the gas producers for breach of contract. Other alternative is to sell the division to someone else, who might re negotiate the contracts with gas producers, forcing them to sue the division, file bankruptcy and get cleared of dues.
Te Parties to the case – Tenron Inc. and smaller gas producers.
Dilemma – To continue bearing the losses or to sell the unit to someone who would file bankruptcy and get cleared with dues and the binding contracts wit te producers.
