The data included purchase price, electrical feedrequirements, lumens emitted, and electricity consumed in operation.The second step was accomplished by introducing the cost of an employee to the employer, inthis case the fictional municipality. The costs introduced were salary

Often, the students’ cost estimates come back up in the process of the companiesselecting the projects for inclusion in their work load.A topic of discussion with some of our industry partners has been in regards to the economicanalysis students have provided on their projects. Many of the projects showed that our studentsare technically competent to perform the design analysis required for the projects but thestudents’ costs and estimates of the work required have not always been complete. Because theeconomic data from the senior projects was not controlled, two of the junior design courses wereselected to evaluate how the students performed on the economic analysis, both from deciding ondesign criteria as well

academic achievement and student retention, other factors such as self-concept in music and family socioeconomic status play a prominent role. 3. At the present time, success on a musical instrument cannot be predicted on the basis of student physical characteristics, possibly due to difficulty in identifying the characteristics to be measured and the lack of a appropriate measuring instrument. 4. Retention of students can be predicted with much more accuracy than student dropout. 5. The validity of predicting performance achievement after less than one school year of instruction may be questionable.[31] Todd Hoover,[23] in his paper entitled, “Performance Prediction

annual reportsAnnual 10K reports are the source of historic information. Since cashflow from assets is not avalue reported, students will calculate this value by adding earnings to the interest (Equation 2above). These values are always available in the report for the consolidated company, but inorder to perform a detailed forecast it is best for each division’s cashflow to be collected. Allcompanies report some kind of division in their earnings or revenues. Figure 3 has the detailsthat are available for Nike from their 10K. Nike does not report earnings by division, but doesreport revenues. This distribution of revenue is used as a proxy for the distribution of earnings.Of course this assumes that expenses are proportionate across divisions

, our college undertook a review[3] of the curriculumrelated to engineering economics to more fully understand the topics typically encompassed inthe subject area of engineering economics[3]. The review consisted of an internal review of theengineering programs offered at our institution, a review of engineering textbooks commerciallyavailable, an environmental scan of the fifteen most research-intensive universities in Canada(termed the U15 universities), and survey of industry representatives. The result of this studywas a list of recommended topics that should be included in an engineering economics course,including some areas where new resources would need to be developed.

The financial model was completed for the students to first run baseline designconditions and analyze the Capital and Operational Expenditures, CAPEX and OPEX (see Fig. 2for CAPEX) to help determine which unit operations should be chosen for sensitivity analysis ofkey engineering design parameters. One key parameter was the weight fraction of water in thefeed. Students then did a sensitivity analysis for weight fraction of water in the feed generatingthe graphs in Fig. 3. A desired Internal Rate of Return of 20% was given and from the sensitivityanalysis students determined that the water content must be less than 67% in the pulp feed stream
