Literal question
If yes, when establishments like this one do business with the government, what percentage of the contract value would typically be paid in informal payments/gifts to secure the contract?
Interviewer instructions
1) Percent of the contract value. The question is designed to get at the size of the unaudited or unreported payment that is made to a government officials that directly aided in granting a government contract, in part or in whole, or expanded the size of the contract to include the establishment's business.
Again, notice the wording (phrasing) of the question: it asks for the respondent to answer for the “typical” establishment, rather than the establishment being interviewed.
