In building their plant, the officers of the International Leather Company had the choice between alternatives: One alternative is to build in Metro Manila where the plant would cost P2,000,000. Labor would cost annually P120,000 and annual overhead would be 40,000. Taxes and insurance would total 5% of the first cost of the plant. The second alternative would be to build in Bulacan a plant costing P2,250,000. Labor would cost annually P100,000 and overhead would be P55,000. Taxes and insurance would be 3% of the first cost. The cost of raw materials would be the same in neither plant. If capital must be recovered within 10 years and money is worth at least 20%, which site should the officers of the company choose using the Present Worth Method and what is the difference of its present worth? a. 56,764.897 (in metro manila) b. 56,345 (in Bulacan) c. 92,782.297 (in metro manila) d. 76,564 (in Bulacan)
Alcoa Corporation (from Aluminum Company of America) is an American industrial corporation. It is the world's sixth largest producer of aluminum, with corporate headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Alcoa is a major producer of primary aluminum, fabricated aluminum, and alumina combined, through its active and growing participation in all major aspects of the industry: technology, mining, refining, smelting, fabricating, and recycling. In a casting R&D trial of a certain aluminum alloy which performed in Alcoa Co, Ltd., by using a particular sand mold, it took 5 mins for a rectangular-prism shaped casting part (length=6 in, width=8 in, height=10 in) to solidify. Calculate the minimum solidification time of the cylindrical riser so that the riser will be effective by using Chvorinov's Rule. Use the following table for the dimensions of the cylindrical-shaped riser. diameter=10 in height= 8 in n (constant) = 2

A contractor needs 3715 m³ of aggregate base for a highway construction project. It will be compacted to a dry unit weight of 18.9 kN/m³. This material is available in a stockpile at a local material supply yard at a water content of 7.75%, but is sold by the metric ton and not by cubic meters (ton 3 1000kg). a. How many tons of aggregate should the contractor purchase? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. b. A few weeks later, an intense rainstorm increased the water content of the stockpile to 14%. If the contractor orders the same quantity for an identical section of the highway, how many cubic meters. of compacted aggregate base will he produce?
