molecules (or atoms) in a gas are separated by large distances and are in constant‚ random motion. When dealing with gases‚ the Ideal Gas Law equation is the most famous equation used to relate all the factors in dealing and solving the problem. The four factors or variables for gas are: pressure (P)‚ volume (V)‚ number of mole of gas (n)‚ and temperature (T)‚ and the constant in the equation is R‚ known as the gas constant. The Ideal Gas law equation which is pV=nRT is obtained by combining the

In hopes of acquiring deserved freedom‚ slaves had the right to kill their masters. But while justified‚ violence was futile‚ leading to execution rather than freedom. Constant victims of injustice‚ slaves were dehumanized and dominated by their master. They were unable to conduct their own actions without the permission‚ incapable of traveling without slave passes‚ and often separated from their family. Slaves were treated as livestock and traded at their master’s will. Masters regarded their slaves

THE EXCHANGE OFFER6EVALUATION OF THE TRADE-OFF7REFERENCES10INTRODUCTIONA firm’s decisions about dividends are often mixed up with other financing and investment decisions. Some firms pay low dividends because management is optimistic about the firm’s future and wishes to retain earnings for expansion. Other firms might finance capital expenditures largely by borrowing. All the above are examples of dividend policies which can be defined more precisely as the trade-off between retaining earnings on the

Lab: Electrostatic Coulomb Constant Rylee Rose Date: 1/28/13 Abstract: This experiment was done to study electrostatic and Coulomb’s law. Objective: The objective was to demonstrate the veracity of Coulomb’s Law. This was done by observing different equilibrium conditions of two pith balls that were equally charged. They were then constructed into a pendulum using strings. Calculations were done to determine the charge on pith balls‚ calculate the mass of the pith balls and to calculate

issues with Cohen’s calculation‚ and then analyze an new WACC to decide whether we should invest in Nike Inc. Many issues should be addressed regarding Joanna Cohen’s WACC calculation. First‚ to calculate the debt cost of capital‚ Cohen divided the total interest expense by the company’s average debt balance. This is an issue because she did not take into account the current yield on publicly traded Nike debt. Another issue that should be addressed is the calculation of the equity cost of capital. Using

Joanna Cohen’s WACC calculation because she mistakenly used historical data to estimate the future cost of debt. Joanna calculated the cost of debt by taking the interest expense for 2001 and dividing it by the average debt balance. The cost of debt for Nike is the effective rate that it pays on its current debt‚ meaning the yield to maturity of bonds should be used to make an estimate instead of the average debt balance. Through the use of past data‚ the average balance of debt‚ the 4.3% before-tax cost

Nike was formed by $1000 and the handshake of 2 men. Those 2 men were Bill Bowerman‚ the University of Oregon track coach and Phil Knight‚ a University of Oregon accounting student and a middle-distance runner under Coach Bowerman. Bill brought jogging to America‚ and then built an unrivaled track and field program at that university. Bowerman taught his athletes to seek the competitive advantage everywhere - in their bodies‚ their gear and their passion. In 1962 Knight had this you’re-crazy-it-will-never-work-
