Tehra has a good relationship with her supervisor, and he simply “signs off” on Tehra's expense reimbursements. Tehra suspects that he knows that she is submitting personal expenses for reimbursement and is “looking the other way” because Tehra has not received a raise in the past three years.  Are Tehra and her supervisor acting in an ethical manner? Why?
