Jeremy owns a muffler shop in a large city. He provides services such as muffler repair, replacement, and minor car repair work. Last week Harold came into his business driving a 1957 Belair Convertible and told Jeremy that he wanted to convert it to a street-rod. He asked Jeremy if he would adjust the muffler so it would emit 125 decibels to give it a "muscle" sound. Harold told Jeremy he would pay an extra $1,000 in cash to get the work done. The legal limit for exhaust system noise is 95 decibels. Jeremy could do the work in a few hours and knows that no one would know that it came from his shop. His business has been slow lately and he is having a difficult time meeting his financial obligations; in addition, his son was just diagnosed with cancer. Which of the following is most
