ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.8 : Cash flow agreement where the sign + or - of the amounts are start negative and at a point switch to positive and stay positive is referred to has an investment. The cash flow could be denoted by the symbol of [a, b, c ...]. Consider the following two cases in a biochemical factory : (a) You pay $1 today. You receive $1.05, one year from now. (b) You pay $3 today. You receive $5, one year from today. You pay $2, two years from today. Determine if cases (a) and (b) are an investment or a business transaction with cash flow symbol. Find the interest rate r in the cash flow in both cases (a) and (b).
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.8 : Case (a) : An investment [-1, 1.05]. Let 1.05 = 1 (1 + r), r = 0.05 or 5 %. Case (b) : A business transaction [-3, 5, -2]. Let 5 (1 + r) = 2 + 3 (1 + r) ^ 2, 3 (1 + r) ^ 2 - 5 (1 + r) + 2 = 0. Let s = 1 + r, then 3s ^ 2 - 5s + 2 = 0 = (3s - 2) (s - 1). Then s = 2 / 3 or 1. When s = 2 / 3, r = s - 1 = 2 / 3 - 1 = - 1 / 3 or - 33.33 %. When s = 1, r = s - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0 %. Let ^ be the symbol of power.

FOOD ENGINEERING - QUESTION 23.1 : (a) According to United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) (http://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/search/list, accessed 12 August 2016), 100 g of potatoes generate 77 kcal of energy. For raw tomatoes, 111 g have 18 kcal of energy. Question : How much energy will one gain if 150 g of heated potatoes are eaten with 200 g of raw tomatoes? (b) If 1 Calorie = 1 food Calorie = 1 kilocalorie and 1000 calories = 1 food Calorie, then how many Calories are there in 9600 calories? (c) According to a food package of potato chips, 210 Calories are produced per serving size of 34 g. In actual experiment of food calorimetry lab, 1.75 g of potato chips, when burnt, will produce 9.6 Calories. For each serving size of potato chip, find the difference of Calories between the actual experimental value and the value stated on the food package. (d) The specific heat of water is c = 1 cal / (g.K) where cal is calorie, g is gram and K is Kelvin. Then what is the temperature rise of water, in degree Celsius, when 150 g of water is heated by 9600 calories of burning food?
