ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.30 : (a)(i) First year : Y = C = $240k, Z = 0 (since C < B). (ii) Second year : Y = B - C = $300k - $240k = $60k, Z = C + D - B = $240k + $180k - $300k = $120k [ since (C + D) > B ]. (iii) Third year : Y = 0, Z = E. (b) E = A - C - D = $500k - $240k - $180k = $80k.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.30 : A biochemical engineering sales contract adopts Cost Recovery Method in its company accounting. Gross profit is realised only when cash collections exceed the total cost of goods sold. Let Y = Original Cost Recovered, Z = Gross Profit Realised. Its property was sold at A = $500k with cost of B = $300k. Its engineering accountant receives cash of C = $240k in first year, D = $180k in second year and E in third year. (a) Find the values of Y and Z in : (i) first year; (ii) second year; (iii) third year. (b) What is the exact value of E if all cash has been fully received from sales?

PROCESS DESIGN - EXAMPLE 21.1 : According to rules of thumb in chemical process design, consider the use of an expander for reducing the pressure of a gas when more than 20 horsepowers can be recovered. The theoretical adiabatic horsepower (THp) for expanding a gas could be estimated from the equation : THp = Q [ Ti / (8130a) ] [ 1 - (Po / Pi) ^ a ] where 3 ^ 3 is 3 power 3 or 27, Q is volumetric flowrate in standard cubic feet per minute, Ti is inlet temperature in degree Rankine, a = (k - 1) / k where k = Cp / Cv, Po and Pi are reference and systemic pressures respectively. (a) Assume Cp / Cv = 1.4, Po = 14.7 psia, (temperature in degree Rankine) = [ (temperature in degree Celsius) + 273.15 ] (9 / 5), nitrogen gas at Pi = 90 psia and 25 degree Celsius flowing at Q = 230 standard cubic feet per minute is to be vented to the atmosphere. According to rules of thumb, should an expander or a valve be used? (b) Find the outlet temperature To by using the equation To = Ti (Po / Pi) ^ a.

X is strong but has a very low density (1% of traditional earth materials.) and hence light weight. It is a recyclable material. The compression behaviour of X is strain rate dependent. Higher strain rates result in higher initial modulus and higher compression strength. It can also withstand unlimited number of cycling loading provided the repetitive loads are kept below 80% of the compressive strength. The internal structure of the material includes air-traps which make it poor heat conductor. X is non- biodegradable and chemically inert in both soil and water. Most acids and their water solutions do not attack it; however strong oxidizing acids do. Solvents which attack X include esters, ketones, ethers, aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons and their emulsions, among others. It does not support bacterial/fungal growth as well .It also has significant acoustic properties and effectively reduces the transmission of airborne sound. X is combustible and should not be exposed to open flame or other ignition sources. Combustion products are carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water and soot. Long-term exposure to sunlight causes yellowing and a slight embrittlement of the surface due to ultraviolet light. X is able to withstand the rigours of temperature cycling, assuring long-term performance.
