A freight company has to transport a container by road from Amsterdam to Tabriz. There are two routes that are viable. Route A is longer but less dangerous than Route B. If the container reaches its destination successfully the company will receive a fee of €15,000. Fuel and other direct costs incurred amount to €6000 on Route A and €4500 on Route B. The probability that the container is hijacked on Route A is put at 0.2; on Route B it is estimated to be 0.5. If the container is hijacked the company will receive no fee but anticipates it will only have to meet twothirds of the fuel and other direct costs. The company will not be insuring the container because of the prohibitive cost of cargo insurance for such a journey.
(a) Draw a decision tree to represent the situation the company faces.
(b) Calculate the Expected Monetary Value for each route and use these to advise the company which route they should take.
(c) There are reports of armed incursions across a border at a critical point on Route A. As a result, the probability of the container being hijacked on Route A must be revised to 0.4. Explain what effect, if any, this has on the advice you gave in your answer to (b).
Wet air containing 4.0mole% water vapor is passed through a column of calcium chloride pellets. The pellets adsorb 97.0% of the water and none of the other constituents of the air. The column packing was initially dry and had a mass of 3.40kg, fol..
The thermal design of a heat exchanger to recover heat from a kerosene stream by transfer to a crude oil stream was carried out in. Make a preliminary mechanical design for this exchanger. Base your design on the specification obtained from the CA..
The feed contains 10 mol% acetone. Acetone of at least 95 mol% purity is wanted, and the aqueous effluent must not contain more than 1 mol% acetone. The feed will be a saturated liquid. Estimate the number of ideal stages required.
In an experiment to determine specific gravity of a soil sample, the following data is obtained:Mass of empty pycnometer 20.4 g Mass of pycnometer with soil sample 51.6 g Mass of pycnometer with soil sample filled with water 88.6 g Mass of pycnome..
Is rusting a moderate reaction? Rusting is an example of what reaction?
A human being (75 kg ) consumes about 6000 Kj of food per day. Assume that the food is all glucose and that overall reaction is- C6H12O6 +6O2 ------à 6CO2 +6H20 , Δ H= -2816 KJ
Figure P6.1.39 shows a full adder with the idea of adding Ci to the partial sum S' , which is the same logic process as addition with pencil and paper.
Large blooms of algae result from high nutrient loading in rivers and lakes, for example, as a result of runoff of fertilizers from agricultural fields.
If a patient with thyroid disease consumes a sample of Na131I containing 10 of 131I, how long will it take for the amount of 131I to decrease to of the original amount?
What's an appropriate rule of thumb for dealing with "magic numbers" (empirical parameters) in the development of an image analysis algorithm?
The reflux ratio is set at 4.0:1. Calculate the kg mol/h distillate D and bottoms W and their compositions. Also, calculate the number of theoretical plates required.
Steam at 2100 kPa and 533.15 K (260°C) expands at constant enthalpy (as in a throttling process) to 125 kPa. What is the temperature of the steam in its final state and what is its entropy change? What would be the final temperature and entropy ch..
