7.1 Case Study -1 
1.0 Birkenfeld is adamant that his prison sentence is unfair when compared to the fact that no one else (Olenicoff, UBS bankers) went to jail. Does he have a point?
We know the fact that if someone is helping the government for protecting the interest of the society and government, we have to help them or we have to treat them differently. While analysing the case of Birkenfeld we can understand that prison sentence was unfair, from the case study it is clear that Birkenfeld helped the government for getting more income as tax and Birkenfeld also helped the government for catching the fraudulent bankers and other related parties. 
2.0 Why did UBS elect to settle with the U.S. government?
The company does not want to lose its access to a large market. We know the fact that for every company their main objective to gain maximum income from the profitable market (Burke et al 2019). The company also wants to remain as a global banking institution and they do not want to lose its reputation and customers.
3.0 Given that there was an immunity agreement in place, what did the Justice Department gain from prosecuting Birkenfeld?
The only reason Birkenfeld was prosecuted was that he withheld the information about Igor Olenicoff. It was said that if he had turned in Olenicoff, Birkenfeld would not have been prosecuted. 
By prosecuting Birkenfeld the Justice Department understood the various facts and information about Igor Olenicoff (Californian based real estate billionaire).
