In a process for the manufacture of chlorine by direct oxidation of HCl with air over a catalyst to form C12 and H2O (only), the exit product is composed of HCI (4.4%), CZ (19.8%), 02 (4,0%), and N2 (52.0%). What was? a) The limiting reactant? b) The percent excess reactant? The degree of completion of the reaction? d) The extent of reaction

The price of a 10-year bond can decline by approximately 9% if interest rates rise by 1% point. To
illustrate this, suppose you own a 10-year U.S. Treasury bond that has a bond rate of 2% per year. How
much money will you lose if the value of the bond today is $10,000 (face value of the bond) and the
yield increases to 3% within the next few months?

A company is considering constructing a plant to manufacture a proposed new product. The land costs
$300,000, the building costs $600,000, the equipment costs $250,000, and $100,000 additional working
capital is required. It is expected that the product will result in sales of $750,000 per year for 10 years, at which time the land can be sold for $400,000, the building for $350,000, and the equipment for
$50,000. All of the working capital would be recovered at the EOY 10. The annual expenses for labor,
materials, and all other items are estimated to total $475,000. If the company requires a MARR of 15%
per year on projects of comparable risk, determine if it should invest in the new product line. Use the
AW method.

"The higher the MARR, the higher the price that a company should be willing to pay for equipment that reduces annual operating expenses." Do you agree with this statement? Explain why.
