Q1. Gradually varied flow of water in a wide rectangular channel with a per unit width flow rate of 1 m3 /s-m and a Manning coefficient of n = 0.02 is considered. The slope of the channel is 0.001, and at the location x=0.0, the flow depth is measured to be 0.80 m. (a) Determine the normal and critical depths of the flow and classify the water surface profile, and (b) calculate the flow depth y at x=1000 m by...

True or False Indirect costs are usually included in the costs that are allocated to activity cost pools in an activity-based costing system In the first-stage allocation in an ABC system, some costs may be allocated to a special cost pool that are not subsequently allocated to products or customers. The activity variance for revenue is favorable if the revenue in the flexible budget exceeds the revenue in the static planning budget. A favorable spending variance occurs when the cost...
