You have been working on some financial projections manually for two days now. It seems that each time you think you have them completed your boss shows up with a new assumption or another "what if" question. If you only had a copy of a spreadsheet software program for your personal computer, you could plug in the new assumptions and revise the estimates with ease. Then, a colleague offers to let you make a copy of some software that is copyrighted. What would you do?

Respuesta :

Answer:

I would reject the copy and advise my colleague not to make a copy as this action violates the copyright law.

Explanation:

Copyright gives the originator the exclusive (or intellectual property) right to make copies of the software.  To make a copy, one needs to obtain the permission of the originator.  The law aims to protect the originator or creator of the intellectual property from illegal use and abuse.
