ENGINEERING ECONOMY - ANSWER 7.3 : (a) For Choice 2, A$15000 x 1.05 = A$15750 after 1 year, A$15750 x 1.05 = A$16537.50 after 2 years, A$16537.50 x 1.05 = A$17364.375 after 3 years, A$17364.375 x 1.05 = A$18232.6 after 4 years. (b) The gain of Choice 2 > Choice 1 with A$18232.6 > A$18000, then Choice 2 is preferred.

FOOD ENGINEERING - QUESTION 23.3 : (a) In the measurement of the browning (optical density) of fruit juice at 10 day interval, the following pairs of data are obtained with time t in days and browning or optical density (OD) : t = 0, OD = 0.05; t = 10, OD = 0.071; t = 20, OD = 0.089; t = 30, OD = 0.11; t = 40, OD = 0.128; t = 50, OD = 0.149; t = 60, OD = 0.17. (i) By using Excel or other programs, determine if such browning reaction can be characterised by pseudo zero order kinetics, with strong correlations between the data pairs of t and OD. (ii) When OD = 0.24, the shelf life T of such juice is expired. Calculate the value of T. (b) Let food cost percentage = ( food cost / food sales ) x 100. If total food cost of bread and butter are $25, food cost percentage of bread is 50 % and for butter is 50 %, find the total food sales of bread and butter.
