B)   does not need to inform her employer of the arrangement because the commissions her brother charges the firm are the lowest possible.

C)   must inform her employer of the arrangement because it provides her with additional compensation.

Correct answer is C)

Members are required to disclose to their employer in writing all monetary compensation or other benefit they receive in addition to the employer’s compensation. The discounting of West’s commissions is a benefit that must be disclosed.

B)   does nothing with respect to this.

C)   delivers a typed memo to her supervisor about the vacation home the first time she uses it.

Correct answer is A)       

Standard IV(B) requires that members disclose to their employer in writing all benefits that they receive in addition to their regular compensation for services they perform on behalf of their employer. E-mail messages qualify. As long as the agreement is in effect, she must inform her employer even if she has yet to use the potential benefit.
