What is the DuPont equation‚ and how does it capture the nature of expense control‚ efficiency of asset management‚ and financial leverage (or debt) of a firm? If you were the CFO of your firm (or a hypothetical firm)‚ what variable would you concentrate your efforts on and why? The DuPont equation is a method of measurement that was started by the DuPont Corporation in the 1920s. In this method of measurement the assets are measured at their gross book value rather than at their net book value which

Visual Perception Pictorial depth cues are what we use to create depth and distance on a 2D canvas or paper. Linear perspective is used when two parallel lines converge together and are perceived to come to a point into the distance. We perceive this in straight roads‚ railway tracks or hallways. This image displays linear perspective on the left side on the box as it is perceived to come together despite the fact that the lines are parallel. Interposition is used when an object sits in front

Scranton Engineers Club. This formula is given as Where σp is pillar strength‚ σ1 is uniaxial compressive strength of a cubical specimen (w/h = 1)‚ and w and h are pillar dimensions. According to Obert and Duvall‚ this equation is valid for w/h ratios of 0.25 to 4.0‚ assuming gravity-loading conditions. Through back calculations from mining case histories and utilization of laboratory rock properties‚ safety factors of 2 to 4 were derived for short- and long-term pillar

Application of linear functions in Economics (or) Application of straight lines in Economics The linear function is one in which ‘y’ is the first degree expression in ‘x’‚ i.e.‚ y = ax + b. The graph of this function is a straight line. The co-efficient of x represents the slope of the line. If a > 0‚ then the lines are upward sloping‚ and if a < 0‚ then the lines are downward sloping Let us explain certain linear equations used in Economics and business. 1. Linear cost curves

Coefficient of Linear Expansion Introduction With few exceptions materials expand somewhat when heated through a temperature range that does not produce a change in phase (i.e. melting‚ freezing‚ boiling etc.). The added heat increases the average amplitude of vibration of the atoms in the material‚ which increases the average separation between the atoms. Although this effect is small‚ it is very important in any application that involves using different materials in an environment where they

Sir Arthur Evans Essay How has the work of Sir Arthur Evans contributed to our understanding of the past? The work of Arthur Evans in exploring Ancient Minoan civilisation on the island of Crete has significantly contributed to our understanding of the past. In examining his work‚ three observations may be made about Evans archaeological examinations. The interpretation and reconstruction of a site should not be influenced by archaeologist’s preconceived ideas‚ in investigating the past it is important
