a) No

B) Maybe

c) yes

Explanation:

a) There would be no ethical issues between the employees as the prejudice existing since ages has been sorted by providing equal wages to all.

b) Yes, there may be an ethical issue between some of the notorious employee groups and the Acme management regarding the sudden raise of wages of the deserving employees who were facing injustice since ages.

c) Definitely there will be an ethical clash between the Acme management and its shareholders as this step would lead to higher outflow of money thereby adding to the operational cost of the company
