What is considered a mitigating factor in administrative violations?

High profit margins
Documented training of licensee and employees
Having a large premises
Serving exotic drinks

The correct answer is: Documented training of licensee and employees

Administrative violations are penalties imposed by the government for violating certain laws or regulations. In this context, mitigating factors refer to anything that can help reduce or lessen the penalties imposed. Option B is considered a mitigating factor because having documented training of the licensee and employees shows that they have taken steps to comply with the laws and regulations, therefore reducing the severity of the violation. Option A, having high profit margins, is unrelated and does not address the violation itself. Option C, having a large premises, may not necessarily have any impact on the violation. Option D, serving exotic drinks, is potentially exacerbating the violation and not reducing it. Overall, option B is the most appropriate answer as it directly addresses the violation and shows efforts to comply.
