What must a salesperson not do according to the accountability clause in the Code of Ethics Regulations?

  1. Reject any business deal proposed by the dealer

  2. Work extra hours without additional pay

  3. Cause the dealer to break law or the Code of Ethics

  4. Discuss vehicle pricing strategies publicly

The correct answer is: Cause the dealer to break law or the Code of Ethics

The accountability clause in the Code of Ethics Regulations states that a salesperson must not cause the dealer to break the law or the Code of Ethics. This means that options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not pertain to this specific clause. Rejecting business deals, working extra hours without pay, and discussing pricing strategies are not prohibited by this clause. However, they could potentially still be considered unethical behavior and violate other parts of the Code of Ethics. It is important for salespeople to adhere to all aspects of the Code of Ethics, not just the accountability clause.
