Answer:
1. Reputation.
Apple and IBM are big companies which is why their reputation was able to survive the bribery charges. You are most likely not as big as either of these companies so if you are charged with bribery, your reputation might not be able to recover like theirs did.
It is always best to be associated with a good reputation. A good reputation gives you customers who will be loyal because they appreciate the integrity you have. You should not throw this away by bribing people.
2. Consequences.

So what this means is that this act is committed when an unequal behavior is shown to a person because of some characteristics possessed by the person for example gender-based or demographic considerations.
