Type 2D: You are a consultant to a firm evaluating an expansion of its current business. The cash-flow forecasts (in millions of dollars) for the project are as follows. Year 0: initial outlay of 100, Years 1 to 8: 18 each year. On the basis of the behavior of the firm’s stock, you believe that the beta of the firm is 1.0. Assuming that the rate of return available on risk-free investment is 4% and that the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10%, what is the (risk-adjusted) net present value of the project?

Find the error in each of the following code segments and explain how to correct it.

1. x = 1;

while ( x <= 10 );

x++;

}

2. for ( y = .1; y != 1.0; y += .1

System.out.println( y );

3. switch ( n ) {

case 1:

System.out.println( “The number is 1” );

case 2:

System.out.println( “The number is 2” );

break;

default:

System.out.println( “The number is not 1 or 2” );

break;

}

4. The following code should print the values 1 to 10.

n = 1;  

while ( n < 10 )

System.out.println( n++ );

An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 7.6 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 140 engines and the mean pressure was 7.8 pounds/square inch. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 1.0. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Enter the value of the test statistic.

F2(g) + 2Cl2O(g) = 2FClO2(g) + Cl2(g)

Expt. #                  [F2] (M)                [Cl2O] (M)                                 Initial rate (M/s)

Calculate the order of the reaction, determine the k, determine t 1/2, how long will it take for the reaction to complete 50% if we double all the reactant concentration.

In the gas phase, N2O5 decomposes according to the following reaction

2N2O5 (g) --> 4NO2 (g) + O2 (g)

We put some N2O5 (g) in a container and it has a pressure of 0.154 atm. After the reaction proceeds for 103 seconds, the total pressure has increased to 0.260 atm. Assuming constant temperature and volume, the average rate of disappearance of the N2O5 (g) during this time interval is

answer is: 1.0 x 10^-3 atm/s

Please show work :D

Pure iridium metal is one of the densest elements at 22.6 g/cm3 . Compute the settling velocities of spherical iridium particles of the given diameters, d_p, in the given fluids.

(a) d_p = 2 μm in air (T = 293 K, P = 1 atm, ρ_a = 1.2 kg/m3 , μ_a = 0.0181 g m^-1 s^-1 )

(b) d_p = 100 μm in water (ρ_w = 1.0 g/cm3 , μ_w = 0.010 g cm^-1 s^-1)

Earnings Per Share is $5.25, and over the next 5 years they expect a payout ratio of 20% and ROE of 15%. During this high-growth period, beta is estimated at 1.20, with a risk-free rate of 1.0% and a market risk premium of 5%. At the end of the 5-year high growth period, estimate their stable beta will be 1.05, with ROE of 12% and growth of 2.0%. Risk-free rate and market risk premium stay the same. Determine the per-share value for the company with calculations.

You are a scientist at a reputable lab researching how different polyprotic acids affect the pH of a solution. How many equivalence points would be visible on the titration curve if you fully titrated a given a solution of 1.0 M sulfurous acid (H2SO3)?

A buffer is made by adding 0.600 mol HC2H3O2 and 0.600 mol NaC2H3O2 to enough water to make 4L of solution. The pKa of the buffer is 4.74. Calculate the pH of solution after 0.035 mol of NaOH is added. (assume the volume doesn
