First off, you do not need to separate "business's ethics" from "ethics". All ethics are some sort of business ethics, it's just a matter of what business you are in. (this includes dating, family etc. "business" is interchangable with "desires")
Ethics are strategies based on the expected consequences of an action. There are short term strategies for gain (theft) and there are long term strategies for gain (honest business). The chronologically longer the scope of the strategy, the more ethical it is.
Becoming a threat to another (especially your target demographic) will increase the chances of your demise.
Finding mutually beneficial relationships will increase the chances fo your prosperity.

Complicated at first, simple as hell once you get the basics.

An ethical business enjoyes:
Repeat business
Sound reputation
Staff contentment
Recognised in industry and marketplace as a company safe to deal with
All the above will lead to increased earning capacity

Business is as honest as the market allows it to be.
