The need to build a new infrastructure to utilize digital technology is constantly increasing, but it is difficult to secure new infrastructure by increasing the number of system resources required indefinitely. If the cost of IT infrastructure is calculated by adding up (1 )fixed and (2) operational costs, what difference will each cost show before and after the introduction of the cloud?

Prepare a statement of stockholders' equity for Oakwood for the year ended December 31, 2016 based on the following information:
Oakwood Inc. is a public enterprise whose shares are traded in the over-the-counter market. At December 31, 2015, Oakwood had 6,000,000 authorized shares of $10 par value common stock, of which 2,000,000 shares were issued and outstanding. The shareholders' equity accounts at December 31, 2015, had the following balances: Common stock $20,000,000 Additional paid-in capital on common stock 7,500,000 Retained earnings 6,470,000 Transactions during 2016 and other information relating to the shareholders' equity accounts were as follows: On January 5, 2016, Oakwood issued at $54 per share, 100,000 shares of $50 par value, 9%, cumulative convertible preferred stock. Each share of preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into 2 shares of common stock. Oakwood had 600,000 authorized shares of preferred stock. On February 2, 2016, Oakwood reacquired 20,000 shares of its common stock for $16 per share. Oakwood uses the cost method to account for treasury stock. On April 27, 2016, Oakwood sold 500,000 shares (previously unissued) of $10 par value common stock to the public at $17 per share. On June 18, 2016, Oakwood declared a cash dividend of $1 per share of common stock, payable on July 13, 2016, to shareholders of record on July 2, 2016. On November 9, 2016, Oakwood sold 10,000 shares of treasury stock for $21 per share. On December 14, 2016, Oakwood declared the yearly cash dividend on preferred stock, payable on January 14, 2017, to shareholders of record on December 31, 2016. On January 18, 2017, before the books were closed for 2016, Oakwood became aware that the ending inventories at December 31, 2015, were understated by $300,000 (the after-tax effect on 2015 net income was $210,000). The appropriate correcting entry was recorded the same day. After correcting the beginning inventory, net income for 2016 was $4,500,000. Required: 1. Prepare a statement of stockholders' equity for Oakwood for the year ended December 31, 2016. Assume that only single-period financial statements for 2016 are presented.

Problem 8.045 SI
Consider a regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater
heaters, a closed one and an open one, and reheat. Steam enters the
first turbine stage at 12 MPa, 560°C, and expands to 2 MPa. Some
steam is extracted at 2 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater heater.
The remainder is reheated at 2 MPa to 520°C and then expands
through the second-stage turbine to 0.3 MPa, where an additional
amount is extracted and fed into the open feedwater heater
operating at 0.3 MPa.
The steam expanding through the third-stage turbine exits at the
condenser pressure of 60 kPa. Feedwater leaves the closed heater at
210°C, 12 MPa, and condensate exiting as saturated liquid at 2 MPa
is trapped into the open feedwater heater. Saturated liquid at 0.3
MPa leaves the open feedwater heater. Assume all pumps and turbine
stages operate isentropically.
Determine for the cycle:
(a) the heat transfer to the working fluid passing through the
steam generator, in kJ per kg of steam entering the firststage
turbine.
(b) the percent thermal efficiency.
(c) the heat transfer from the working fluid passing through the
condenser to the cooling water, in kJ per kg of steam entering the
first-stage turbine.

If the pipe is open at both ends , determine the locations along the pipe (measured from the left end) of the displacement nodes for the fundamental frequency.
Part B
If the pipe is open at both ends, determine the locations along the pipe (measured from the left end) of the displacement nodes for the first overtone.
Part C
If the pipe is open at both ends, determine the locations along the pipe (measured from the left end) of the displacement nodes for the second overtone.
Part D
If the pipe is closed at the left end and open at the right end , determine the locations along the pipe (measured from the left end) of the displacement nodes for the fundamental frequency.
If there is more than one value, separate your answers with commas.
Part E
If the pipe is closed at the left end and open at the right end , determine the locations along the pipe (measured from the left end) of the displacement nodes for the first overtone.
If there is more than one value, separate your answers with commas.
Part F
If the pipe is closed at the left end and open at the right end , determine the locations along the pipe (measured from the left end) of the displacement nodes for the second overtone.
If there is more than one value, separate your answers with commas .

Consider a regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater
heaters, a closed one and an open one, and reheat. Steam enters the
first turbine stage at 12 MPa, 560 °C, and expands to 1.5 MPa. Some
steam is extracted at 1.5 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater
heater. The remainder is reheated at 1.5 MPa to 440 °C and then
expands through the second-stage turbine to 0.3 MPa, where an
additional amount is extracted and fed into the open feedwater
heater operating at 0.3 MPa. The steam expanding through the
third-stage turbine exits at the condenser pressure of 10 kPa.
Feedwater leaves the closed heater at 220 °C, 10 MPa, and
condensate exiting as saturated liquid at 1.5 MPa is trapped into
the open feedwater heater. Saturated liquid at 0.3 MPa leaves the
open feedwater heater. Assume all pumps and turbine stages operate
isentropically. Determine for the cycle:
a) The rate of heat transfer to the
working fluid passing through the steam generator, in kJ per kg of
steam entering the first-stage turbine.
b) The thermal efficiency.
c) The rate of heat transfer from
the working fluid passing through the condenser to the cooling
water, in kJ per kg of steam entering the first-stage turbine.
