You must analyze the forecasted risk and cash flows of a project at your firm to determine if it is a smart investment.  The cost of the project is $120 million today.  The forecasted cash flows at the end of each of the next 6 years are $30 million.  The project’s beta is 1.8.  Assume the risk-free rate is 3% and the expected return on the market is 13%.  a)  What is the net present value of the project? (5 points) b)  You recognize that your forecast of project beta could be in error, so you perform some additional analysis.  Determine how high the beta could be and still generate a zero NPV.  (5 points)

What is the molarity of glucose C6H12O6 if 360 grams of glucose is dissolved in 200 mL of water? (molar mass: C = 12 g/mol, H = 1 g/mol, and O = 16 g/mol)

Describe what happens to the average kinetic energy of ideal gas molecules when the conditions are changed as follows.  If the kinetic energy remains the same it will be marked with an S, if the kinetic energy increases it will be marked by an I and if the kinetic energy decreases it will be marked by a D.  Choose the correct grouping. (a) The pressure of the gas is increased by reducing the volume at constant temperature.(b) The pressure of the gas is increased by increasing the temperature at constant volume.(c) The average velocity of the molecules is increased by a factor of 2.

Suppose you drove east to a grocery store and returned home in half an hour. Your car’s odometer showed the total distance traveled at 20 km. What was your average speed?
