Can a licensee give or accept a gift from a client or a relative of a client valued at more than $50?

  1. YES

  2. NO

  3. Maybe

  4. Depends on the value

The correct answer is: NO

In general, a licensee should not give or accept gifts valued at more than $50 from a client or relative of a client. Doing so may create a conflict of interest and undermine the licensee's duty to act in the best interest of their client. Options A and C are incorrect because they suggest that a licensee can accept gifts of any value, which is not the case. Option D is also incorrect because the value of the gift is not the determining factor in whether or not it is appropriate to accept it. Option B is the best choice because it accurately reflects the restrictions placed on licensees in regards to accepting gifts from clients or their relatives.
