In order to preserve independence, Michael must "Remove himself from the engagement as he considers the offer." (Option B). It is to be noted that this is an internal control problem.
<h3>
What is Independence in this case?</h3>
The absence of situations that jeopardize the internal audit activity's capacity to carry out internal audit tasks objectively is called Independence.
Practically, independence is achieved by ensuring that the internal audit activity has no management control for any of the organization's non-audit functions that are subject to internal audit assessments, and by distancing the internal audit activity's management from the functional oversight of the organization's senior management.
