Teletech Corporation‚ 2005 Kyle Fortin My recommendation for Teletech Corporation is to change from a constant hurdle rate to the use of two risk-adjusted hurdle rates‚ one for each segment. Teletech’s performance is evaluated based on economic profit calculations. Through this measure‚ the risk-adjusted hurdle rates return a higher amount of profit compared to a single corporate hurdle rate. Currently‚ the firm has been using 9.30% as their hurdle rate‚ and as a result the firm’s share prices

Fluid Mechanics Report Instruction Water turbine is a very common used throughout the world to generate power. Although the concept of the Impact of a Jet is essentially simple‚ and it can has a highly hydraulic efficiency‚ the factor of how can produce a powerful reaction force back is also has to be considerate truly. If we can manage well‚ we can determine the best situation and the optimum deflection angle out‚ for getting the optimum force that the impact can produce. But first of all‚ we

EXAM 1 NOTES The actual pressure at a given position is called the absolute pressure‚ and it is measured relative to absolute vacuum (i.e.‚ absolute zero pressure). Most pressure-measuring devices‚ however‚ are calibrated to read zero in the atmosphere (Fig. 3–2)‚ and so they indicate the difference between the absolute pressure and the local atmospheric pressure. This difference is called the gage pressure. Pgage = Pabs - Patm The pressure at a point in a fluid has the same magnitude in all
