The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The sale of counterfeit products through its sites can be damaging to Alibaba because it directly affects its name and reputation.

Alibaba is the largest online site to buy products. We could say it is the competitor of Amazon. Alibaba sells millions of dollars yearly. So its customers would get a negative impression if they realized that some products sold in the Alibaba platform are counterfeited. Its image could be affected negatively and the company would have to spend a lot of money on marketing and public relations campaigns to overturn the bad perception.

Reputation.

If a company has a bad reputation of allowing the sale of counterfeit goods, buyers will not trust the site and will not buy from it.

You plan to invest in bonds that pay 6.0%, compounded annually. If you invest $10,000 today, how many years will it take for you

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The answer is 16 years.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by:

$V(n)=(1+R)^nP$

Where:

$n$ is the number of years the investment is compounded,

$R$ is the annual interest rate,

$P$ is the principal investment.

We know the following:

$25000=(1+0.06)^n \times 10000$

And we want to clear the value n from the equation.

The problem can be resolved as follows.

First step: divide each member of the equation by $10,000$ :

$\frac{ 25000}{10000}=(1+0.06)^n \times \frac{ 10000}{10000}$

$2.5=(1.06)^n$

Second step: apply logarithms to both members of the equation:

$log(2.5)=log (1.06)^n$

Third step: apply the logarithmic property $logA^n=n.logA$ in the second member of the equation:

$log(2.5)=n.log (1.06)$

Fourth step: divide both members of the equation by $log1.06$

$\frac{log(2.50)}{log (1.06)} =n$

$n= 15.7252$

We can round up the number and conclude that it will take 16 years for $10,000 invested today in bonds that pay 6% interest compounded annually, to grow to $25,000.
