ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.23 : (a) Income = 10000 units x $10 / unit = $100000. (b) Overall cost of production = overall variable cost + overall fixed cost = 10000 units x $2 / unit + $30000 = $50000. (c) Percentage of gross profit = 100 x [ answer (a) - answer (b) ] / [ answer (a) ] = 100 x ($100000 - $50000) / ($100000) = 50 %. (d) Let N units x $10 / unit = $50000 = answer (b) where N = units successfully sold = $50000 / ($10 / unit) = 5000 units. (e) Let contribution margin = (selling price - variable cost) / unit = $ (10 - 2) = $8. M x (contribution margin) = overall fixed cost = $30000. M = ($30000) / ($8) = 3750 units need to be produced at minimum.

COMPUTER PROGRAMMING FOR ENGINEERS - EXAMPLE 17.3 : (a) The byte is the basic building block of computer data used in chemical engineering process simulation where 16 bits make a word, 4 bits make a nibble, 32 bits make a quad word and 8 bits make a byte. Then how many nibbles are there in a megabytes? (b) In computer data items, let : 1 bit - counts from 0 to 1, 8 bits - counts from 0 to 255, 16 bits - counts from 0 to A. What is the value of A? (c) In a binary system of 4 bits, if 1100 = 12, 1101 = 13, 1110 = 14, 1111 = 15, B = 16, then guess the value of B. (d) By using any form of tools, find the exact value of 2 power 64 or 2^64.

Question 36 - For a mixture of benzene (B), toluene (T) and xylene (X), the equation applies where x for B, T and X will sum up to 1. The equation of x for each component is x = (L / V + 1) (F) / (L / V + K). The data of F for each component are : 0.5 for B, 0.35 for T, 0.15 for X. The data of K for each component are : 1.98 for B, 0.76 for T, 0.24 for X. When x for B + x for T + x for X = 1, find the values of (a) L / V; (b) x for each component of B, T, X respectively. You may use Excel program - Data : What-If-Analysis for Goal Seek to perform the iterative calculations.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.22 : An engineering company intends to produce a small piece of biochemical instrument for sales. Let A = overall fixed cost of production, B = variable cost of production per unit, C = selling price per unit, D = quantity of unit produced. Breakeven Analysis is used where revenue = cost. (a) Explain the role of Breakeven Analysis by using A, B, C and D. (b) Find the value of Contribution Margin in term of A, B, C and / or D. (c) At the breakeven point where revenue = cost, derive an equation of D as a function of A, B and C.

QUANTUM BIOLOGY - EXAMPLE 33.8 : (a) Let ^ be the symbol of power where 1 ^ 2 = 1 x 1 = 1, 2 ^ 2 = 2 x 2 = 4. Let the number of electrons in a human body to be 10 ^ 28 = A, the number of all of the grains of sand on Earth planet to be 7 x (10 ^ 20) = B, the number of all the stars in the visible sky to be 8 x (10 ^ 3) = C. By assuming that every star in the visible sky has the same number of grains of sand as on Earth planet, prove by mathematical calculations that there are more electrons in one human body compared to the number of all of the grains of sand on the stars in the visible sky. (b) The incoming solar radiation to the Earth's surface is mainly from sun. Around 51 % of the radiation is absorbed by Earth's surface. Around 19 % is absorbed by atmosphere and clouds. In term of reflection, 4 % of the radiation is from surface of Earth, 6 % is reflected by atmosphere and the rest is reflected by clouds. Find the percentage of radiation absorbed by and reflected by biological beings on Earth, with reason for your response.
