Introduction: When making an investment in a company‚ investors want to make sure the company is well managed. Because the differences between effective tax rates of companies of equal size that perform similar functions in the same geographical region are generally due to managerial decisions‚ a company with the lower effective tax rate could have the better administration and therefore be a better investment. The statutory corporate tax rate is the rate that is imposed on taxable income of corporations

He could not see the gleeful memories they once made together. All he could see now was an individual that he had once cherished‚ and now detested. Although she betrayed his trust‚ he believed that the only reasonable choice of payback‚ was to return the favor in the most beastly way possible. Little did

friction loss along a smooth pipe shows that there are existence of laminar and transitional flows as stated in Graph 2.0 and Graph 2.1. It is proven that the higher velocity along the smooth bore pipe‚ the higher is the head loss of water. As shown in Table 3.0‚ when the Reynolds’ number increases‚ the value of pipe coefficient friction‚ f decreases along the decreasing stead laminar line. On top of that‚ there are energy loss from the water to the surface of the pipe and therefore‚ the temperature

Frozen Pipe Repair in Frederick Gaithersburg and Rockville‚ MD Two of the most catastrophic plumbing disasters you can encounter is a burst and frozen pipe. Though the root causes of these problems are different‚ their outcome can end up being the same. A burst pipe is a result of a clogged sewage system. When there’s hair‚ soap residue‚ or clumped up toilet paper blocking the pipes‚ water has a difficult time flowing down the drain. This creates a lot of pressure‚ causing the affected pipe to expand

Experiment 1 Fluid Flow In A Smooth Pipe Abstract In this experiment‚ three variable flow meters are used to alter the flowrate. Changes in pressure drop due to the change in flowrate are then observed from the three pressure gauges that can measure pressure at different range and recorded. The shift from laminar flow to turbulent flow is seen from the results recorded‚ but it is observed more clearly from the water-soluble dye experiment that was carried out by the demonstrator. Laminar flow

Maybe you’ve seen these in a movie? At a club? At a party? Or if you’re from the city like I am‚ maybe you’ve driven past one of these bars or lounges. Still not ringing a bell? I’m talking about the water pipe commonly used to smoke tobacco called the Hookah. The hookah has become very trendy over the years‚ but most people still do not know much about it. The origin‚ how much it has evolved over time through society‚ or even the health risks. The hookah originated during the Safavid Dynasty in

Flue Pipe Experiment Abstract The wind instrument I will be researching in this experiment will be the pipe organ‚ commonly used in cathedrals and churches. Pipe organs produce sound by pushing pressurized air through a set of flue pipes. Flue pipes usually have a circular cross section and are mostly made of wood or metal. One pipe can only produce one pitch‚ so to produce a range of pitches an organ will have multiple sets of pipes called stops. Organs can have as little as 12 pipes to as

The Chanupa pipe might not sound too familiar but its shape has created the mold that most of today’s smoking pipes take after. The Chanupa pipe is a very sacred utensil to the cultures that use it. It’s most common use is for conveying prayers to the “creator”. The pipe itself isn’t just one piece‚ its multiple pieces added on to each other. Each of these pieces hold a different symbolic meaning‚ finding these symbolic details would be very hard to members not included in a specific culture because
