Abstract: This experiment explores the technique of absorption spectroscopy. The procedures deal with the wavelengths and absorption of dyes in a sample of grape Kool-aid. The use of Beer’s Law helps to determine values of absorption. Introduction: This experiment demonstrates another technique used in the analysis molecules with light. The study of light absorbed my molecules is known as absorption spectroscopy. This is very easily the opposite of emission spectroscopy because it occurs when

If direct materials are $8.00 per unit‚ direct labor is $4.00 per unit‚ variable manufacturing overhead is $6.00 per unit‚ and fixed costs are $12‚000 for the units produced‚ then what would be the cost assigned to 2‚000 of units in ending inventory? If direct materials are $8.00 per unit‚ direct labor is $4.00 per unit‚ variable manufacturing overhead is $6.00 per unit‚ and fixed costs are $12‚000 for 6‚000 units produced‚ what is the total cost per unit under throughput costing? Under throughput

"Exxon Corporation and the lack of a true Mission Statement” Abstract Exxon didn’t have a true mission statement and it may have been less of a catastrophe if they had one and followed it. The Johnson and Johnson Mission statement would have been beneficial and also helped lessen the crisis. There are changes that could have been made in both the way they operated‚ performance measures and even incentive payments. If Exxon had a true mission statement and followed it in their business model

current product costing system requires a lot of research and pre-planning. In order to determine the most effective product costing system management must decide which costs should be included in the product costs‚ at what level will direct costs be tracked‚ how indirect costs will be structured‚ and when to capture the indirect costs. Once all the costs have been identified and organized into fixed‚ variable‚ or overhead categories‚ management must then decide which product costing system would provide

Introduction Activity Based Costing (ABC) is a methodology that identifies activities in an organization and assigns the cost of each activity with resources to all products and services according to the actual consumption by each. By using ABC to assign the overhead costs to each activity‚ the following steps should be followed: 1. Identify and define activities using interviews and surveys. Then build a list of activities. • Activity name-usually consists of an action verb and an object.

Activity-based costing (ABC) is a costing model that identifies activities in an organization and assigns the cost of each activity resource to all products and services according to the actual consumption by each. It also assigns more indirect costs (overhead) into direct costs. In business organization‚ the ABC methodology assigns an organization’s resource costs through activities to the products and services provided to its customers. It is generally used as a tool for understanding product and

mineral salts‚ dissolve in water and they can then be moved within the plant to the cells that need them. Plants obtain water from the soil through their roots. The roots are adapted to absorb large volumes of water by having many tiny root hairs‚ which increase the surface area of the roots. Each root hair is an extension of an individual cell on the outside of a root‚ called a root hair cell. Water enters the root hair cell by osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water from a dilute solution to a

INTRODUCTION Vapour absorption refrigeration system is one of the oldest methods of producing refrigerating effect. John Leslie in 1810 kept H2SO4 and water in two separate jars connected together. H2SO4 has very high affinity for water. It absorbs water vapour and this becomes the principle of removing the evaporated water vapour requiring no compressor or pump. H2SO4 is an absorbent in this system that has to be recycled by heating to get rid of the absorbed water vapour‚ for continuous
