Question：What is the name given to an approach to ethical decision-making which considers the 'right' decision to be the one which results in the greatest good to the greatest number of people in a given situation?
A. Virtue ethics
B. Utilitarianism
C. Deontology
D. Corporate social responsibility
The correct answer is: Utilitarianism
Rationale: Utilitarianism is based on 'usefulness': the greatest good of the greatest number.
Deontology is an alternative approach based on absolute moral principles (or categorical imperatives): what is morally 'right' in a situation.
Virtue ethics is a belief in pursuing positive moral qualities, which flow out into behaviour.
CSR is an entirely different concept, to do with the obligations of an organisation towards its secondary stakeholders.
