*Applied to Work in Process during the period.
The company's manufacturing overhead cost is applied to production on the basis of direct labor-hours. All of the materials purchased during the period were used in production. Work in process inventories are insignificant and can be ignored.
Required:
1. How many units were produced last period?
2. How many pounds of direct material were purchased and used in production?
3. What was the actual cost per pound of material? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
4. How many actual direct labor-hours were worked during the period?
5. What was the actual rate paid per direct labor-hour? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
6. How much actual variable manufacturing overhead cost was incurred during the period?

A.) What is the pH of a buffer prepared by adding 0.607 mol of the weak acid HA to 0.406 mol of NaA in 2.00 L of solution? The dissociation constant Ka of HA is 5.66×10−7. ANSWER IS: 6.072
B.) What is the pH after 0.150 mol of HCl is added to the buffer from Part A? Assume no volume change on the addition of the acid. ANSWER IS: 5.776
C.) What is the pH after 0.195 mol of NaOH is added to the buffer from Part A? Assume no volume change on the addition of the base.

An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is modified to include a counterflow heat exchanger, as shown in the figure below. Ammonia leaves the evaporator as saturated vapor at 1 bar and is heated at constant pressure to 5°C before entering the compressor. Following isentropic compression to 18 bar, the refrigerant passes through the condenser, exiting at 40°C, 18 bar. The liquid then passes through the heat exchanger, entering the expansion valve at 18 bar.
If the mass flow rate of refrigerant is 16 kg/min,
determine:
(a) the refrigeration capacity, in tons of refrigeration.
(b) the compressor power input, in kW.
(c) the coefficient of performance.
(d) the rate of entropy production in the compressor, in
kW/K.
(e) the rate of exergy destruction in the compressor, in kW.
Let T0 = 20°C

Client and Server Online Game Jumble: In this assignment, you need to use socket programming to implement an online game Jumble. Generate a random work in server and send it to client and ask for input and then client send the guessed word to server and server check whether its in a word.txt file and reply Win or lose.

Test your code and make sure the server can serve multiple players simultaneously. Note the words should be generated independently for each client, so that normally different clients are guessing different words

Case Summary
Microsoft is the world’s largest supplier of computer software. It has dominant market share of PC operating systems with its Windows system. High barriers to entry prevent significant competition in the operating systems market. The primary barrier is that a large number of software programs must be able to interface with any operating system to make it attractive to end users. It would be extremely difficult for any competitor to create a new operating system and create or encourage the creation of completely new software to compete with Windows. However, the development of Internet Browser programs, specifically Netscape, threatened this barrier, by allowing software developers to create software that could run using the browser software as a platform for the program. Therefore, software could be created that could still be used with Microsoft Windows, but would not have to be.
Microsoft recognized this development as a threat to its operating system monopoly. Initially Microsoft attempted to divide the market with Netscape, but Netscape refused. To defend its operating system, it set about to overtake Netscape with its own internet browser, Internet Explorer. To defeat Netscape, Microsoft leveraged its operating system monopoly to gain market share in the internet browser market. Microsoft forced computer manufacturers to include Internet Explorer and strongly discouraged them from including competing browsers with the bundled software. It also leveraged its operating system power to encourage Online Service Providers (AOL, etc.), Internet Content Providers, and Internet Service Providers to use Internet Explorer and discourage them from making competing browsers available. The actions by Microsoft were effective in taking market share away from Netscape and protecting the Windows Operating System.
