Amanda works at a retail store in the mall. She has recently been promoted and now is in charge of opening and closing the store, which involves handling money. After counting the money from the register at the end of the day, she comes up with an extra $25 that somehow wasn't accounted for. Since the money isn't officiallyrecorded, she wonders whether it would be okay to take the money or whether she should put the money in the bank and explain the situation to her boss in the morning. She decides that she deserves the extra money for her hard work and pockets the $25. Which of the following describes Amanda's actions?A. Identity theftB. Conflict of interestC. Ethical dilemmaD. Whistle-blowingE. Ethical lapse

An ethical lapse is an error or mistake in judgement that an individual commits which brings about a harmful outcome. It is usually as a result of an oversight as it really doesn't mean that the individual lacks integrity.

The scenario in the question is an ethical lapse. This is because the extra $25 she pocketed wasn't accounted for as it was an oversight and it wasn't that she intentionally stole the $25 or didn't account for it intentionally.
