Refusing to return client records, even if a CPA is owed unpaid fees, if these records are needed by the client to prepare its tax return is clearly discreditable as it violates the fundamental principle of confidentiality and undermines the trust between the CPA and the client. The other options may not necessarily be discreditable but may be unprofessional or inappropriate. A may be considered unprofessional, C may be considered inappropriate or sexist, and D may be misleading but not necessarily discreditable as long as the statement is true and not used to deceive or misrepresent the CPA's qualifications or expertise.
