) Assume that you have successfully completed the R&D phase of a new product development project; this phase took several years and cost an estimated $14.75 million but resulted in a successful prototype product. You and your company are now ready to start the market development and research phase of your new product development project. It is estimated that the market development and research phase of this project will take two years and cost $11.5M per year. There is an eighty percent probability that the market development and research phase will indicate that a viable market exists for your new product.
Before your company can begin the market development and research phase, however, a long-time rival announced that it plans to market a similar product in one year that will directly compete with your newly developed product. Your company feels that there is a 60 percent probability that your new product will be superior to your competitor’s product.
If your company’s product is superior to your competitor’s product and the market development phase indicates that a viable market exists, you will earn a net profit of $10 million per year for ten years. If your product is inferior to your competitor’s product, you will terminate the project. Assuming a discount rate of 14 percent, calculate the expected NPV of your new product assuming that you proceed immediately with the marketing development and research phase.
In analyzing this problem, you should make the following assumptions. First, if you learn that your competitor’s product is better than your product after one year of market development, you will terminate the project and not incur the market development cost ($11.5M) for the second year. Second, assume that all cash flows occur at the end of the year.
Compare your results to the case when you decide to wait for one year (to learn more about your competitor’s product) before proceeding with the market development and research phase. If you postpone the market development phase by a year, however, and your product is superior to your competitor’s project (and a viable market exists), it will only have a nine year life span. What do you think is your best strategy? Why?

Generate a Personal Web Page:
Write a program that asks the user (you) for the following information:
Once the user has entered the requested input, the program should create an HTML file, write the html file utilizing the tags below, and display the user entered text in the placeholder of the red text for a simple Web page.
Your program should include the following functions:
, the name of your web page that will show in the browser tab, and closing title tag

Problem) Write a program that reads 20 integers and stores them
in two arrays of 10 elements
each. Then, the program should check if the two arrays have common
elements, if yes,
the program should displays the value of each common element and
its position in both arrays. Otherwise,
it should display a message and that their elements are
different.

You want to determine the concentration of Fe2+in a solution. You decide to determine the Fe2+ concentration by means of a redox titration with potassium permanganate. You use 50 mL of the Fe2+ solution and adjust the pH to 1. You need 26.78 mL of a 0.0179 M KMnO4solution to reach the endpoint.
a. What is the reaction that takes place? Write the balanced chemical equation.
b. What is the concentration of Fe2+ in your original solution?
c. What is the balanced chemical equation for the titration of Fe2+with potassium dichromate? What volume of potassium dichromate (c=0.0148 M) would you have needed for this titration (the pH is acidic)?
d. Provide at least two methods to determine the endpoint of the titration with permanganate. Explain exactly how you would determine the endpoint. Do not just state the method

QUESTION 14
You have a small plastic chamber with a semipermeable cellulose membrane running down the middle. This membrane contains pores that allow molecules with sizes under 10,000 daltons (Da) to pass freely. You fill one side of your chamber with water (18 Da) and the other side with an equal volume of solution containing bromophenol blue dye (670 Da) at a concentration of 4 mg/mL in water. After allowing your experimental chamber to stand overnight, you would expect to find ____________________.
|
that all the water in the chamber had moved to the side you added dye to, which was hyperosmotic |
||
|
4 mg/mL bromophenol blue solution on both sides of the membrane due to diffusion of the molecules. |
||
|
that all the dye had moved to the opposite side of the membrane, which was hypoosmotic |
||

C++ langugae only
The first phase of compilation is called scanning or lexical analysis. This phase interprets the input program as a sequence of characters and produces a sequence of tokens, which will be used by the parser.
Your job is to write (in C++) a simple scanner for source code that obeys the language described below. You may assume that the input is syntactically correct.
Your program simply needs to read each token and then print out what type it is, based on the following language rules:
keyword -> if | then | else | begin | end |
function | return identifier -> character |
character identifier
integer -> digit | digit integer
real -> integer.integer
special -> + | - | = | < | >
digit -> 0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9
character -> a|b|c ... |z|A|B|C ... |Z
