Honestly, I'm just glad I don't have to worry about this code of ethics stuff. I'll stick to my day job flipping burgers, where the only ethical dilemma is whether to put extra pickles on the customer's sandwich.

I'm torn between B and D, but I think D might be the way to go. Competitive bidding keeps things fair and above board.

Haha, can you imagine the accountant being like, 'Hey boss, I found the money you were looking for! Show me the cash!'. That's definitely not allowed.

I'd have to go with option B. A fixed quotation in advance seems like the safest way to avoid any ethical issues.

Option C is clearly a violation of the Code of Ethics. You can't accept a fee based on a specific outcome - that's just unethical.
