true
false

Explanation:

Analyze the statement's core concepts

Using the Business Ethics and Ethical Dilemmas knowledge points

The statement asks whether a car dealer who fails to disclose that a car has been in an accident is considered "hiding or divulging information."

Evaluate the terminology

"Hiding" and "divulging" are antonyms:

• Hiding means concealing or withholding information.
• Divulging means making private or sensitive information known to the public.

Failing to disclose a past accident is a clear act of withholding (hiding) information, rather than sharing (divulging) it. Because the statement uses the disjunctive phrase "hiding or divulging information," the act of non-disclosure falls under the "hiding" portion of this ethical classification. Therefore, the statement is conceptually accurate.

Answer:

• True (Correct answer)
• False
