ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.30 : A biochemical engineering

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.30 : A biochemical engineering sales contract adopts Cost Recovery Method in its company accounting. Gross profit is realised only when cash collections exceed the total cost of goods sold. Let Y = Original Cost Recovered, Z = Gross Profit Realised. Its property was sold at A = $500k with cost of B = $300k. Its engineering accountant receives cash of C = $240k in first year, D = $180k in second year and E in third year. (a) Find the values of Y and Z in : (i) first year; (ii) second year; (iii) third year. (b) What is the exact value of E if all cash has been fully received from sales?

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.30 : (a)(i) First year : Y = C = $240k, Z = 0 (since C < B). (ii) Second year : Y = B - C = $300k - $240k = $60k, Z = C + D - B = $240k + $180k - $300k = $120k [ since (C + D) > B ]. (iii) Third year : Y = 0, Z = E. (b) E = A - C - D = $500k - $240k - $180k = $80k.

Question 39 - Acetone and ethanol are separated using a distillation column with a partial condenser and partial reboiler. An equimolar, sub-cooled liquid feed enters at 100 kmol / hr and condenses 1 mole of vapor for every 6 moles of feed. The separation requires a distillate vapor that is 95 mol % acetone and bottoms liquid that is 5 mol % acetone. The reflux is returned from the condenser to the column as a saturated liquid and the operation is run at (L / V) = 1.4 * (L / V) min. Assume constant overflow conditions. (a) Feed operating line is y = [ q / (q - 1) ] x - z / (q - 1) where z = 0.5 for equimolar liquid mixture of 2 components, q = (L’ - L) / F where L’ = L + F + (F / 6) for condensation of 1 mole of vapor / 6 moles of feed. What is y = f(x)? (b) The rectifying operating line is y = (L / V) x + (D / V) (xd) where (L / V) min goes through the points A (0.95, 0.95) and B (0.53, 0.69), V = L + D. What is y = f(x)? Let xd = 0.95. (L / V) min is the slope of the 2 points A and B.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.15 : Based on Time Discounting of Money, let y = x / (1 + r) ^ n, where ^ = power, r = interest rate for the period in decimal value, n = number of periods, y = current value, x = future value. According to Present Value Addition Rule, the present value of a set of future payments is equal to sum for present value of each of the payments. In an engineering business, 3 future payments are to be made : $100 after 1 year; $500 after 2 years; $200 after 3 years. (a) Form an equation of y as a function of r. (b) Find the value of y in 5 decimal places if r = 8 %.
