<span>The total equivalent warming impact (TEWI) takes into consideration both the direct and indirect global warming effects of refrigerants.
In addition to the direct impact of the refrigerant (which is conveniently estimated by GWP), any system or process, which requires energy input, indirectly affects the environment. This impact is originated from CO2 emissions from the energy production processes.
TEWI can be calculated using the equation below:
TEWI = direct emissions + indirect emissions = (GWP×L×N)+(Ea×β×n),
where
L – annual leakage rate in the system, kg (3% of refrigerant charge annually),
N – life of the system, years (15 years),
n – system running time, years (based on weather data, 4910 hours),
Ea – energy consumption, kWh per year (modelled for each refrigerant),
β – carbon dioxide emission factor, CO2-eq. emissions per kWh (165 g CO2/kWh).</span>
Answer:
a. the current level of interest rates
Explanation:
The current interest rate represent the factor that does not based upon the rate of interest as it does not modify on the frequentyly basis such as the price of the stock or the current price. In the case when we do the trasing in the stock market so the standard deviation would be used in order to get to know the stock volatility
Hence, the option a is correct
Answer:
Demand forecast.
Demand forecast is the process a business embarks on so that it can predict its future sales and demand of a product.
Explanation:
A demand forecast will assist the company to come up with decisions as regards the number and nature of people they need. The demand forecast will also help to determine the amount of workers they need for staffing a new facility so that it can operate efficiently and at it optimum.
Answer:
Declaration date:
Dr retained earnings $26400
Cr dividends payable $26400
Payment date:
Dr dividends payable $26400
Cr Cash $26400
Explanation:
Total dividend declared is the number of shares multiplied by cash dividend per share
total dividend=$3*8,800=$26400
On the record date no entries are required since record date, is just about verifying the bonafide shareholders.
On declaration date,dividends payable would be credited with $26,400 while retained earnings is debited.
On payment date,dividends payable is debited and cash credited
Answer:
10.70%
Explanation:
NPER = 12*2 = 24
PMT = 40
PV = -820
FV = 1000
Pretax Cost of Debt = Rate (NPER, PMT, -PV, FV) * 2
Pretax Cost of Debt = Rate(24, 40, -820, 1000) * 2
Pretax Cost of Debt = 0.0535 * 2
Pretax Cost of Debt = 5.35% * 2
Pretax Cost of Debt = 10.70%
