Current ratios are determined by dividing a company’s current assets by their current liabilities. As of December 31, 2013 Starbucks current ratio is 1.273 vs. 1.847 on December 31, 2012. Current ratio determines whether a company will be able to meet their short-term obligations like paying their creditors and purchasing raw materials for its production and indicating the company’s efficiency. When a company’s current ratio is higher than a 2.0 it indicates that their current assets are larger than

fertilisers can lead to salinity affecting the soil quality. With climate change, adverse implication could also be because of activities outside the production process. At any given time, for given prices, the allocative efficiency (AE) is the ratio of ‘marginal value of product per unit input’ to ‘marginal cost per unit input’ (i.e. AE = MVP/MC). AE is optimal at unity. The overall economic efficiency (EE) is a product of technical efficiency and allocative efficiency (EE = TE*AE). If the latter

HYSYS Assignment 1 Exercise 1 From the article Process Selection and Optimisation Studies – North Rankin ‘A’ by K.R. Gammie, we are told that the operating temperature for a 1 year flowing condition, the temperature is 76°C and has a pressure of 24.2 MPa. At this flowing condition, we can see that we have a point far above the saturation dome; therefore the fluid is single phase. For a 10 year flowing condition, the temperature is given as 96°C and has a pressure of 13.2 MPa. At this flowing

and water binder ratio has been considered as one of the control factors. So the effects of water/binder ratio, fly ash, coarse sand, and stone dust on the performance characteristic are analyzed using signal–to–noise ratios and mean response data. According to the results, water/binder ratio and stone dust play the significant role on the compressive strength of the brick. Furthermore, the estimated optimum values of the process parameters are corresponding to water/binder ratio of 0.4, fly ash of

Project 1 WTO= 357,100 WF used= 106,722 WOE TENT=188,008 WE TENT=185,197 WE= 185,240 Procedure Step 1: The Temperature ratio (φ) has to be found so that σ can be determined. The pressure ratio (δ) is found using the atmospheric table with an altitude of 1500 ft. T= 98 °F Stofl: 5300 ft Temperature Ratio (φ): (T + 459.7)/518.7 = 1.0752 Pressure ratio (σ)= δ/φ = .822/1.075=0.765 Step 2: From observing Table 3.1 a range of values for CLmaxTO for the take-off flaps are found to

with portfolio upside deviations being divided by a market’s upside deviations to so show the resulting ratio and how it facilitates other tests for positive or negative skewness. The article discusses how CAPM is inappropriate for the evaluation of portfolios given that is not only assumed that the returns on distributions are symmetrical, but that the beta (performance and return-to-risk ratios) underestimates the risk of larger numbers of mutual funds. Kochman and Badarinathi needed to answer two

Hula Hands Thesis/Main Points/My Opinion: According to this letter written by Haunani Kay-Trask, she expresses her feelings about the tourism here in Hawaii. She states that tourists have outnumbered the Hawaii residence with a ratio of 6 to 1, and had the ratio of 30 to 1 when comparing the tourists to the Native Americans. She also found facts that showed Hawaii residence why we should dislike tourists. One of the quotes she has found says “tourism has been the single most powerful factor

humerus ratio being from the desert and ones with longer femurs to be from the rainforest. We measured the lengths of the femurs and humerus in centimeters. Then we made a table with all fifteen individuals’ femurs and humerus lengths plus a table with the ratio of femurs lengths to humerus lengths. We found the average standard deviation of these measurements and made scatter plot showing humerus length against femur length and a bar graph to represent the femur to humerus length ratios of the

There are several aspects suggesting that they need to improve their financial budget. a) Asset-utilization ratios As we can see from the Exhibit 4 of the case, Ratio Analyses of Historical and Projected Financial Statements, the sales growth rate and the assets growth rate are not change consistently. As the ratio in Table 1 shows, from 1997 to 2000, when the sales growth rate increased significantly, the assets growth rate declined or maintained stable. Therefore
