[SOLVED]You’re a sales manager the Andrews Company and it’s time to decide annual bonuses for your sales force.

You’re a sales manager the Andrews Company and it’s time to decide annual bonuses for your sales force. One normally good salesperson completely failed in the fourth quarter dropping his overall sales percentage one point below what is required to earn a bonus. After receiving the news of his overall sales percentage, he reported to you that he didn’t feel good about his fourth-quarter performance because he’s been very distracted with the new knowledge that his mother had been diagnosed with an advanced cancer. Given this information, you decide to award the salesperson with an annual bonus. Which of the following arguments bests captures a Universalist perspective on this decision?
