As this is a Research Paper, it must be written in third person.

Research topic: The influence of business ethics on purchase intention: Do consumers really careabout a firm's behavior?

Rationale: There has always been a lot of discussion about how firms should behave, and whetherthere should be repercussions for crossing certain lines in their professional conduct. This researchis aimed at discovering whether consumers really care about the actual behavior of firms, or justfor the products they give.

You will also create an Annotated Bibliography. The Annotated Bibliography must be in current APA format, and a 100-word description (of the reference(s) itself and its contribution to the paper) must be included.

The annotated bibliography is simply a document that lists the sources you plan to use in your final research paper and why each one is relevant to your research topic. So, for each source, you show it as it will appear in the references section of the final paper and then just below that you tell me why you selected it and how it contributes to the research. You will do this for each source.
