 Michelson was chairman of the board and chief executive officer of a computer manufacturing company. When considering to purchase CompuPrint, the manufacturer of computer printers, Michelson examined CompuPrint's financial records, consulted with legal and financial experts, and conducted an in-depth study of the marketplace and decided that it would be profitable for his corporation to purchase CompuPrint. If this turns out to be a poor investment, is Michelson liable for the losses that his corporation has suffered? What would be his best defense?
