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.

What is the Investment in Mopsy Co. balance as of December 31, 2020, if the equity method has been applied

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

$1,609,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the Investment in Mopsy Co. balance as of December 31, 2020, if the equity method has been applied

First step is to calculate the Unrecorded Patents Amortization

Unrecorded Patents Amortization

=$1,400,000-[($6,400,000 - $3,000,000)×30%] /10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization

=$1,400,000- ($3,400,000 × 30%)/10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization

=$1,400,000 - $1,020,000/10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization = $380,000 / 10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization= $38,000

Now let determine the Investment

Investment=$1,400,000 + $180,000 + $225,000 - $60,000 - $60,000 - $38,000 - $38,000

Investment= $1,609,000

Therefore the Investment in Mopsy Co. balance as of December 31, 2020, if the equity method has been applied is $1,609,000

Sloan [31]

Answer:

$16,394.26

Explanation:

using a loan calculator we can determine the amount of interest paid in both loans:

n = 30 years n = 30 years

principal = $200,000 principal = $200,000

APR = 4% APR = 3.6%

monthly payment = $954.83 monthly payment = $909.29

total interest paid = $143,739.01 total interest paid = $127,344.65

the difference in total interest paid between both loans = $143,739.01 - $127,344.65 = $16,394.26

the difference in monthly payment between both loans = $954.83 - $909.29 = $45.54
