d. First names are likely to be used in the office because the ideal is equality.

Explanation:

In a lower power distance culture the level of power distribution inequality from the superior members of the society to the inferior members of the society is very low, unlike in a high power distance culture where the level of power distribution is very high.

In a low power distance culture, members of the society value equality, and it is acceptable for those in lower ranks (junior) to question those in higher ranks (senior), therefore in an organisation or office, the opinion of every worker is put into consideration when making decisions.
