positive. Secondly, purchasing one additional dryer would cost $60,000. Then, the process capacity would increase to 800 bbls/hr. The dry berries (375bbls/hr) and the wet berries (800bbls/hr) would now sum up to 1175 bbls/hr, which will increase the utilization rate of separators to 97.91%. The resulting increase in flow rate could reduce the overtime labor as much as $78,000 (assuming 12,000 over time hours of all workers * $6.5/hr) and the return on the investment would be 0.3 (18,000/60,000).

steel products in North America. The worldwide industry in which Nucor competes had record years of crude steel production in 2010 and 2011. Steel making capacity worldwide was approximately 2,090 million tons in 2011, resulting in a 2011 capacity utilization rate of 80 percent versus just 75 percent in 2010. The demand for steel mill products had grown 5.5 percent annually since 2000, but between 2000 and 2011 there have been periods of both strong and weak demand.

Furthermore, the Industrial Production and Capacity Utilization are used to predict if inflation will occur. The industrial production measures how many manufactured goods are produced and the capacity utilization figure uses this information to create a ratio that determines whether there is a supply shortage or not. These figures can help me to find out if it is a good time to seek a job in a particular industry. For instance, right now the capacity utilization rate is at 81.9% in the mining industry which
