I would like to make 3.8 M of Perchloric acid and, i have no idea how to do it since it is not my field of study.

But have to make 3.8 M of Perchloric acid because we need to make sampling fluid with it.

Sampling fluid contains 0.11~0.13 grams of 2,4-DNPH+1L of Acetonitrile+0.15 mL of 3.8 M Perchloric acid.

The Perchloric acid that i have right now is 70%, 99.999% trace metals basis, Cas:7601-90-3 HCIO4, MW:100.46 g/mol, in a bottle of 50 mL.

My colleague told me that it contains 2009.2 M of HCIO4 in 50 mL from the calculation; 100.46/0.05 L = 2009.2 M HCIO4

If this it right, how do i make 2009.2 M of HCIO4 to 3.8 M HCIO4 ???

please help.

Quarter 2: 7,000        Quarter 3: 7,500          Quarter 4: 9,000

Sky High’s selling price is $400 per parachute. All sales are credit sales. Sky High collects 85% of its sales in the quarter in which it made the sales and the remaining 15% in the following quarter.

You own a company that sells high-end motorcycles. You are considering launching a new marketing campaign in an attempt to increases sales but you are unsure of when you should start it. You believe it makes the most sense to market more when the fewest number of people typically buy motorcycles. So, you decided to use your quarterly sales data from the past 2+ years to test to see if there is a difference in sales between the quarters and if so, which quarter had the lowest sales.

For this question, you will need to download the Sales Data and then use the data analysis tool pack in Excel to run an Anova: Single Factor Test. Note, you will need to install the data analysis tool pack on your computer. How to do this differs based on the type of computer you are using, but instructions can be found on google for both Mac and PC.

Sales Data: https://arizona.grtep.com/core/uploadfiles/components/283631/files/Sales%20Data.xlsx

How many pair-wise comparisons or Fisher’s confidence intervals would you need to calculate in order to compare all of the quarters versus one another? (i.e. Quarter 1 versus Quarter 2 is one pair. Quarter 1 versus Quarter 3 is another pair.)

From the ANOVA output, enter the following. Round your answers to 4 decimals.

January $

407,000

February $

604,000

March $

319,000

April $

215,000

  1. Sales are 20% for cash and 80% on credit. All payments on credit sales are collected in the month following sale. The accounts receivable at December 31 are a result of December credit sales.

  2. The company’s gross margin is 40% of sales. (In other words, cost of goods sold is 60% of sales.)

  3. Monthly expenses are budgeted as follows: salaries and wages, $37,000 per month: advertising, $59,000 per month; shipping, 5% of sales; other expenses, 3% of sales. Depreciation, including depreciation on new assets acquired during the quarter, will be $45,620 for the quarter.

  4. Each month’s ending inventory should equal 25% of the following month’s cost of goods sold.

  5. One-half of a month’s inventory purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid in the following month.

  6. During February, the company will purchase a new copy machine for $3,200 cash. During March, other equipment will be purchased for cash at a cost of $81,000.

  7. During January, the company will declare and pay $45,000 in cash dividends.

  8. Management wants to maintain a minimum cash balance of $30,000. The company has an agreement with a local bank that allows the company to borrow in increments of $1,000 at the beginning of each month. The interest rate on these loans is 1% per month and for simplicity we will assume that interest is not compounded. The company would, as far as it is able, repay the loan plus accumulated interest at the end of the quarter.

Complete the cash budget. (Cash deficiency, repayments and interest should be indicated by a minus sign.)
