Question Question 6 of 80 (worth 2.5 points) Save The investment demand curve suggests: A. that changes in the real interest rate will not affect the amount invested. B. there is an inverse relationship between the real rate of interest and the level of investment spending. C. that an increase in business taxes will tend to stimulate investment spending. D. there is a direct relationship between the real rate of interest and the level of investment spending.

Many companies are undergoing server virtualization. This is the concept of putting multiple "virtual" servers onto one physical device. The payoffs can be significant: fewer servers, less electricity, less generated heat, less air conditioning, less infrastructure and administration costs, increased flexibility, less physical presence (that is, smaller server rooms), faster maintenance of servers, and more. There are costs, of course, such as licensing the virtualization software, labor costs in establishing the virtual servers onto a physical device, labor costs in updating tables, and access. But determining the return>on investment can be a challenge. Some companies have lost money on server virtualization, while most would say that they have gained a positive return on investment but have not really quantified the results.>How might a company really determine the return on investment for server virtualization?

1. For a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell that uses hydrogen as fuel, calculate the maximum energy output possible at 800°C. 2. For a methanol fuel cell with total reaction equation and AG given, calculate the open circuit voltage. CH3OH + 3/2 02 2H2O + CO2 AG = -698.2 kJ/mol 3. H2O is electrolyzed using an SOEC reactor. Inlet of the cathode has 30ml/min H2O, outlet of anode has 5ml/min 02, and applied current is 2A. Calculate the H2O conversion and Faradaic efficiency (both in %). (Flow rates are given for gas phase in STP)

Assume that you measured the length of an object as 50 mm using a digital caliber. The measurement was made at 300 + 5 K. What is the actual measurement result? (Resolution of the digital caliber: 0.04 mm, coverage factor: 3, linear thermal expansion coefficients of the digital caliber and the sample are 14*10-6 KP)

Receivables amount to P150,000. Receivable turnover is \( 10 \mathrm{x} \) and inventory is maintained at a level equal to 15 days' sales. Selling price per unit is P100 and has gross profit ratio of \( 40 \% \). A proposal has been made to change the term credit to \( \mathrm{n} / 60 \) to result to an increase in sales volume by one-third or by 5,000 units. Under this proposal, bad debts losses are estimated at \( 1 \% \) to \( 3 \% \) of sales but inventory turnover shall remain the same. How much is the increased accounts receivable? How much is the increased inventory? Compute for the increased operating income.
