PLEASE HELP!!!

Discuss the ethics of what Amy is doing. Are there any consequences to her actions? How does the stor account for Amy's returns?

Amy Martinez is a student who plans to attend approximately four professional events a year at her college. Each event necessitates a financial outlay of $100-$200 for a new suit and accessories. After incurring a major hit to her savings for the first event, Amy developed a different approach. She buys the suit on credit the week before the event, wears it to the event, and returns it the next week to the store for a full refund on her charge card.

Required:
Comment on the ethics exhibited by Amy and possible consequences of her actions.
How does the merchandising company account for the suits that Amy returns?
