Exercise 194
Harris Timber Corporation uses a machine that removes the bark from cut timber. The machine is unreliable and results in a significant amount of downtime and excessive labor costs. The management is considering replacing the machine with a more efficient one which will minimize downtime and excessive labor costs. Data are presented below for the two machines:
| Old Machine | New Machine | ||||||||
| Original purchase cost | $340,000 | $370,000 | |||||||
| Accumulated depreciation | 230,000 | — | |||||||
| Estimated life | 5 years | 5 years | |||||||
It is estimated that the new machine will produce annual cost
savings of $85,000. The old machine can be sold to a scrap dealer
for $8,000. Both machines will have a salvage value of zero if
operated for the remainder of their useful lives.
Determine whether the company should purchase the new machine.
(Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign
preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). Do not
leave any field blank. Enter 0 for the amounts.)

For each element:
Write the complete electron configuration the neutral atom
Draw out orbital box diagram showing the distribution of electrons in the atom
Characterize the neutral atom as either paramagnetic or diamagnetic.
write quantum numbers for the electrons in the highest energy level of the atom
Write the four quantum number last electron added to the atom according to the Aufbau principle order discussed in class.
A complete electron configuration does not abbreviate closed electronic shells below the valence level using the a noble gas's element symbol in square brackets.

Based on the following set of quantum numbers:
A. Is this set of quantum numbers valid? Yes or No B. Using appropriate letter designations, what sublevel does this describe? C. How many total orbitals are in the shell described? D. How many degenerate orbitals are in the subshell described? E. What is the total number of electrons that can potentially be found in this energy level? F. Assuming the numbers shown represent the highest energy electron in the atom, which element does this set of quantum numbers represent? |

Exercise 2
The cost of producing one teddy bear is 10 PLN. At the price of 15
PLN per teddy bear the sales volume is 1000 pieces per year. Each
time the price is raised by 1 PLN, the sales decrease by 50
pieces.
PROFIT = (FINAL PRICE - PRODUCTION COST) * number of units
sold
(a) Determine the formula of the square function describing the
annual profit depending on the price x PLN per unit.
b) Set such a price for one teddy bear that the annual profit of
the company is the highest. What will be the sales volume and what
profit?

For a recent "Smartest State in America" article, a journalist wants to know how many people with a bachelor's degree or higher are in each state. The journalist finds that there are an average of 5,000,000 people in each state with a bachelor's degree or higher, with a standard deviation of 450,000 people, normally distributed.
To further analyze her data, she wants to identify the amount of people that separates the lowest 12.5% of the means of the population with a bachelor's degree from the highest 87.5% in a sampling distribution of 25 states. Use Excel to find this amount of people.
Round x¯ to the nearest whole number.

Determine the number of lanes required according to Highway Capacity Manual 2010 methodology to achieve a target Level of Service (LOS) of C for a section of a freeway. The section characteristics are the following: rolling terrain, 15% trucks, 2% RVs, PHF = 0.90, AADT = 30,000 veh/day, 50% traffic in the design direction, 12 ft wide lanes, 5 ft right shoulder clearance, 4 ramps in 6 miles. Use 30th highest hourly volume for design hour volume assuming that the value will be exceeded in 15% of similar locations.

Give your answer as a whole number but do not round your calculations until you get to the final answer.
Jole uses the high-low method of estimating costs. Jole had total costs of $12,373 at its lowest level of activity, when 2,597 units were sold. When, at its highest level of activity, sales equaled 6,091 units, total costs were $28,081. Jole would estimate fixed costs as: _______
