From Rajwant Engineering case study

Question 1.0:

ClientCo has imposed an unhealthy financial request for a "kick-back" on REPL which, if pursued, would likely result in a project award which will mitigate the short-term financial distress for Rajwant Engineering. The options are to acquiesce with some compliance or withdraw from the ClientCo relationship! After due consideration of REPL's circumstances, and in consideration of his personal values of honesty and integrity, what decision should Sokhi make with respect to his ClientCo dilemma, and why?
