Profitability Ratios: How Profitable is the Company? Net sales/Net profit after taxes The information necessary to determine a company’s profit as a percentage of sales can be found in the company’s income statement. 1. Magnetronics’ profit as a percentage of sales for 1999 was $1‚307 divided by $48‚769‚ or 2.68%. 2. This represented a decrease from 3.6% in 1995. 3. The deterioration in profitability resulted from a decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales‚

ABSTRACT The flow measuring apparatus is designed to study which the most preferable flow meter from different typical methods of measuring the discharge of an incompressible fluid. This can be identify by measuring the flow rate and the head loss with later to be compared to the different flow meter which is venture meter‚ orifice meter and rotameter. INTRODUCTION The objectives of this experiment are to demonstrate the characteristics of some various commonly used methods of measuring fluid flow rates

Pipe Flow Experiment Purpose The purpose of the experiment is providing an opportunity to students of experience to familiarize with some key aspects of fluid flow in pipe‚ notably friction losses and verify theory. In this experiment‚ required equipment are a water tank‚ piezometric tubes‚ pump‚ a stop watch‚ empty bucket and a digital weight scale. By operating the pump to keep the water is full in the water

Lab 7: The Kidney’s Role in Fluid Balance Introduction The renal system performs a vital role in homeostasis. The kidneys’ ability to retain valuable constituents and expel metabolic wastes from the body enables this system to regulate the volume‚ osmolarity‚ and pH of body’s internal fluid environment (Sherwood‚ 2007‚ p. 511). The functional unit of the kidney‚ referred to as the nephron‚ is composed of both tubular components—Bowman’s capsule proximal tubule‚ loop of Henle‚ the distal tubule

Fluid Mechanics Flow Past a Circular Cylinder The behaviour of flow around and past bodies that are circular in the crosssection is very important‚ mainly because there are so many matching scenarios out there. Golf balls‚ over head cables and underwater supports are just a few examples of circular cross-sections and how studying flow in this case is important. Let us take golf balls for example‚ they have been engineered in such a way from them being perfectly round‚ to having small indents
