Engineer Sally is a U.S. engineer working in Country X. She wants to import some chemicals into Country X that are essential to her business in Country X. The customs official in Country X requires a very substantial "fee" of \$250,000 before Sally can import the chemicals, saying the chemicals violate the environmental laws in Country X . Which of the following statement[s] is/are true about this situation? If importing the chemicals is indeed in violation of the laws of Country \( X \), then the fee is a bribe. If importing the chemicals is not a violation of the laws of Country \( X \), then the fee is an extortion payment. This should best be considered an excessive gift because in Country \( X \), business and personal relationships may be intertwined. Regardless of whether the chemicals violate the laws of Country \( X \), Sally is being exploited. If the fee does not violate the laws of Country X, it is best considered a "grease payment."
