A cylinder with a volume of 10 liters contains 1.32 kg of carbon dioxide at a pressure of 75 atm. The carbon dioxide has a molecular weight of 0.044 kg / mol and its molecule has 2 free rotations.

a) Calculate the gas temperature in the cylinder. If the temperature is increased by 50 degrees, how much will the pressure increase? Do not take into account the thermal expansion of the cylinder

b) Calculate the number of molecules in the cylinder and the internal energy of the carbon dioxide before heating

c) Calculate the internal energy of the gas after heating and the amount of heat given to the gas.

(d) Determine the mass of the carbon dioxide molecule and its average rate before heating

A manufacturer of fabricated metal products has acquired a new plasma table for $37,000. It is projected that the acquisition of this equipment will increase revenue by $10,000 per year. Operating costs for the machine will average $2,600 per year. The machine will be depreciated using the MACRS method, with a recovery period of 7 years. The company uses an after-tax MARR rate of 10% and has an effective tax rate of 30%.

2. Now, suppose that the duration of the project is six years and that an estimate of the value of the equipment cannot be obtained from the marketplace.

2.2. Find the before-tax PW, IRR and discounted payback period (before-tax MARR = 10%). Can the acquisition be economically justified? Why or why not?

1. Filing an Extension for your individual tax return before April 15th provides for what ability?

C. 6 month delay of tax reporting of tax Form 1040 calculation

D. 6 month delay of tax due

E. 6 month delay of tax penalties

2. The constructive receipt doctrine:

A. causes income to be recognized after it is actually received.

B. causes income to be recognized before it is actually received.

C. is particularly restrictive for accrual-basis taxpayers.

D. applies equally to income and expenses.

Stanton inc is considering the purchase of a new machine that'll reduce before tax cash operations cost by 5000 annually and increase sales by 10000 annually. It will use marcs method to deprecate machine and will sell machine at the end of 5th yr for 15000 before tax. Marginal rate 21% and uses 10% cost of capital . Machine has marcs class life of 5 yrs. Dep rates 20% 32% 19.2% 11.52% 11.52% and 5.76 for years 1-6. Machine cost 600000. What is after tax cash flow of new machine t=4 (cf4)? T=5 (cf5) and npv of new machine?

After years of playing the lottery, you just won $10,000,000. Now, you have to figure out how you want it paid to you. You can take a lump sum now before tax, (yes, Uncle Sam will eventually get his part), or you can take annual payments at the end of each year (also before tax). The interest rate is 4% and if you do take the payments, they will be paid over 20 years.


1) What is the lump sum payment that you would receive today?


2) How much would you have received in total at the end of the 20 years if you took the payments?

You are a consultant to a mid-sized manufacturing corporation that is considering an investment project. The project requires an initial investment of $100 million and will generate an after tax cash of $20 million in the first year and the cash flow will increase 5% thereafter every year (Please note that this is a constant growing cash flow).The project’s beta is 1.5. Assuming that rf=5% and E ( rM ) = 12%, Please answer the following questions.

What is the net present value of the project ?
What is the highest possible discount rate for the project before its NPV becomes negative ?
What is the highest possible beta estimate for the project before its NPV becomes negative ?
