    The correct answer is letter "C": Moral Minimum Standard.

    Explanation:

    In the corporate world, Moral Minimum Standards refers to the lowest ethical level a company must meet at the moment of conducting its operations. It involves how the firm treats its employees and how it takes care of the immediate environment that surrounds its plants. Besides, it includes the social responsibility of the firm in the community.

    In the case, Brad's company failed to cover the moral minimum standards by polluting its surrounding society because of a smokestack and even after complaints the association did not eliminate the issue by installing a stack scrubber. It is clear Brad's company is focused on its interest without taking care of what could happen to society or the environment.
