答案 A

解析 The sentence is in order as it stands; the best answer choice is option A. The other four answer choices have significant errors.
A    Correct. This choice is the best answer. It contains neither the errors in the other choices nor any other errors.
B    The placement of the adverbial phrase in the past creates redundancy because have already indicates a past tense. Placing the phrase in the past preceding might, as in choice A, indicates that the adverbial phrase correctly modifies the entire verb might have led. But likely will... is common in speech and somewhat informal; in a formal writing context, are likely to, as in choice A, is better.
C    This construction appears to make it the subject and which the object of the verb led, but the pronoun it has no logically plausible referent. Liable is sometimes used informally as a synonym of likely, but in formal written English, it is typically used only where the potential outcome is undesirable. In this sentence, likely is rhetorically a better choice.
D    The phrase the business is inappropriate given that no business has, by this point, been mentioned. The verb plague is too far removed from its subject conflicts, making the sentence awkward and difficult to read.
E    The possessive adjective its is meant to refer to a small company and could only do so if a company had already been mentioned. The verb plague is too far removed from its subject conflicts, making the sentence awkward and difficult to read.
The correct answer is A.
