A diesel engine uses Type A filter and a high grade lubricating oil costing P55.00 per liter. With this filter, the oil and the filter have to be changed every 500 hours of operation, and 5 liters of oil have to be added every 100 hours. This filter costs P1480.00 a piece. Eighty liters of oil fill the engine. Another type, filter B, costing P1200.00 may be used with a lower grade of oil costing P48.00 per liter. However, if this filter is used, the oil and filter have to be changed every 300 hours & 10 liters are added after each 150 hours the engine is used. Which type of filter & oil would you recommend?
United Oil Company is attempting to develop a reasonably priced unleaded gasoline that will deliver higher gasoline mileages than can be achieved by its current unleaded gasolines. As part of its development process, United Oil wishes to study the effect of two independent variables—x1, amount of gasoline additive RST (0, 1, or 2 units), and x2, amount of gasoline additive XST (0, 1, 2, or 3 units), on gasoline mileage, y. Mileage tests are carried out using equipment that simulates driving under prescribed conditions. The combinations of x1 and x2 used in the experiment, along with the corresponding values of y, are given below.

The octane number of a gasoline was determined using a mixture of iso-octane and n- heptane with the same knocking tendency as gasoline. If the liquid fuel is burned in 50% excess air, with a product gas molal ratio of CO, to CO of 6:2 and H, to CO of 2:1, what Orsat analysis is expected? Assume an octane number of 85. Density of iso-octane is 0.6918 and n-heptane is 0.684 g/ml. 1. Determine the Orsat analysis of the stack gas. 2. Determine the Complete analysis of the stack gas. 3. Determine the octane number of the gasoline.
A) A boat has a diesel fuel tank capacity of 100 L. A particular gas station near the Bridge charges a service charge of $6.00 plus $1.80 per liter of diesel. In this case, we can model the cost of diesel by C(n) = 1.80n + 6.00, where C is the cost of the diesel in dollars and n is the number of liters. If the sailboat uses the gas station to fill up, what would be the domain for the equation, the range of costs, and the independent and dependent variables? B) If one birchbark canoe can travel up to 16 km/h, then the equation for distance versus time would be s(t) = 16t, where s is the distance traveled in km and t is the time in hours. Is this a linear or non-linear relationship? How far does the canoe travel after 3 hours? 5 hours? C) One particular game sells for $60 and there is a monthly fee of $8 for playing the game with other players online. Make up variables for the independent and dependent variable and explain their meaning. Then create an equation that can represent the…

Pyson company produces air-purifier fan B177 model. This model is the best seller with expected annual sales of 20,000 units. Each B117 fan has a thermostat component which enables the fan to automatically work upon a pre-set temperature. The company has always produced the thermostat component internally, but the general manager is considering purchasing this component from an external supplier. The purchase decision would eliminate all variable costs but some of the fixed costs. Allocated costs will have to be absorbed by other production departments. Variable manufacturing costs to produce each thermostat component were: Direct materials per unit: $6Direct labour per unit: $4.80Indirect labour per unit: $0.66Utilities per unit: $0.60Fixed manufacturing costs to produce each thermostat component were: Cost item Direct Allocated Depreciation $3,300 $2,700 Property taxes $1,500 $600 Insurance $2,850 $1,350 Pyson currently receives an offer from Flurry Ltd. to purchase a similar…
A consulting engineer is considering two pumps to meet a demand of 15,000 gallons/minute at 12 feet total dynamic head. The specific gravity of the liquid being pumped is 1.50. Pump A operates at 70% efficiency and costs $12,000; pump B operates at 75% efficiency and costs $18,000. Power costs $0.015/kilowatt-hour. Continuous pumping for 365 days/year is required (i.e., 24 hours/day). Using a MARR of 10% and assuming equalsalvage values for both pumps, how many years of service are required forpump B to be justified economically? (Note: Dynamic head times gallon/ minute times specific gravity divided by 3960 equals horsepower required. Horsepower times 0.746 equals kilowatts required.)
Continental Engineering Ltd manufactures three types of ceramic coffee percolator; the Silver, Gold and the Platinum models. The maximum market demand and resource requirements of each of these products are shown below. The percolators are made from an advanced heat-resistant material that gives the firm a competitive advantage. An email from the purchasing manager has informed you that, because of a problem with the supplier, it should be assumed that the half year’s supply of this special material is limited to 90,000kg. Continental operates on a just-in-time production (JIT) method so that opening and closing inventory levels are zero. The sales director has already accepted an order for 5,000 Gold percolators that, if not fulfilled, would incur a financial penalty of £10,000. This order is included in the Gold’s maximum market demand figure. Continental’s directors need to know whether they should go ahead and satisfy the contract and then prioritise production in the…

Alderon Enterprises is evaluating a special order it has received for a ceramic fixture to be used in aircraft engines. Alderon has recently been operating at less than full capacity, so the firm's management will accept the order if the price offered exceeds the costs that will be incurred in producing it. You have been asked for advice on how to determine the cost of two raw materials that would be required to produce the order. A) The special order will require 800 gallons of Endor, a highly perishable material that is purchased as needed. Alderon currently has 1,200 gallons of Endor on hand, since the material is used in virtually all of the company's products. The last time endor was purchased, Alderon paid $5.00 per gallon. However, the average price paid for the endor in stock was only $4.75. The market price for the Endor is quite volatile, with the current price at $5.50. If the special order is accepted, Alderon will have to place a new order next week to replace the…
