Under U.S. law, it is illegal for a U.S. firm operating in a foreign country to pay bribes to get what it needs. Natives of some of those same countries consider the payment of bribes to be perfectly acceptable. Which of the following influences may account for this difference?a. Cultural differences
b. Economic influences
c. Religious influences
d. Educational systems
e. All of these choices

The reason is that cultural differences are more prominent when we travel across the globe. It is an open debate in United Nations that what must be the implications of the politicians who take their money to the other nations which affects the country. This curruption causes more destruction which is far behind the destruction of war. The country fails in many perspectives. So accepting bribes is culture in many nations which are mostly under developed countries and this acceptance of bribe affects the lives of people of that countries more severely which means that the nation will get affected due to this type of business practices.

So US which is more developed nation has laid regulation for safeguarding the people of under developed countries and avoid a cultural difference.

For example, if slavery is accepted in any country then will you permit US company to enslave people over there and use them?

Ofcourse not because its a cultural difference which is unethical and can not be justified though it is acceptable in a culture.
