    E). A conflict of interest.

    Explanation:

    As per the given description, the given situation can give rise to a 'conflict of interest' as the incompatibility between the responsibility and the aim that exists here (because the land is owned in Tupelo and the distribution center is required to be set up in Mississippi). If either of them is chosen, it may work against the another and thus, such a situation leads to a clash of interests.
