Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Legal Briefcase box emphasizes the close involvement of top executives in their companies, including their knowledge and responsibility for ethical behavior and financial decisions.

Choice B is also incorrect, as courts can and do hold top executives accountable for their actions, regardless of their technical knowledge.
