The answer is option C.

Standard I(C) of ethics states about not misrepresenting any research or investment analysis by CFA institute members. In fact, he/she should appropriately mention the source from where the data aur study has been taken.

In the above context the study read by Jim Wonder is published in the financial journal which should be given an acknowledgement in his report. Also, the original author of the study who wrote it for the financial journal should also be acknowledged by Jim Wonder in his report.
