Write a 6-8 page essay
Seldom-Break Inc. (SBI) has just entered the power tool market. SBI is not actually a manufacturer of power tools. Instead, SBI buys surplus Soviet-era Russian power tools, puts its own name on them, and sells them to construction outfits and consumers in the United States. SBI plans to sell the surplus tools quickly and switch to other ventures (under a new name) once all of the tools are sold. SBI knows of two major defects associated with the power tools. First, the power tools are coated with a paint that has been shown to cause cancer in a significant number of persons who are exposed to it for more than one hundred hours. Second, the circular saws that SBI sells have a high probability of throwing their blades after about 200 hours of use. Both workers using the saws and pedestrians walking by worksites may be injured seriously by the flying blades. Although the SBI corporate board knows about these problems, the consuming public and SBI's investors do not. SBI has few of its assets in the United States and no employees in the United States. SBI sells only to distributors in Florida and Georgia. The only SBI investors in the United States are in Florida. The headquarters and bank accounts for SBI are in the Cayman Islands.
