Answer:

The correct option is B, a conflict of interest

Explanation:

Conflict of interest refers to a situation where one has two competing  business relationships contesting  for one's loyalty and patriotism.The company is well aware that if the executives sit on  HP's  board or any other related organizations, their objectivity may be impaired in making business decisions involving it and any of the other companies cited.

The question is not about trade secrets as trade secrets most times reside with the lower level managers who are involved in the day to day activities of the organization not non-executives as portrayed in the scenario.

Explanation:

<u>Journal Entries</u>

Debt: Legal services (4,100 hours × $100 per hour)  = $410,000

"Common stock" and "paid in capital in excess of par" has been credited as this issuing company issuing common stock.
