Norway‚ is a small company that manufactures specialty heavy equipment for use in North Sea oil fields. (The Norwegian currency is the krone‚ which is denoted by Nkr.) The company uses a sob-order costing system arid applies manufacturing overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year‚ the following estimates were made for the purpose of computing the predetermined overhead rate: manufacturing overhead cost‚ Nkr360‚000; and direct labor-hours‚ 900. The

Companies borrow at low rates‚ but don’t spend At present‚ a lot of households and small business in economy are rejected to be loaned because some large corporations borrow a large amount of dollars for next to nothing. This phenomena happens a lot. Such as Microsoft‚ it issues bonds at low interest rate‚ whereas few of them invest the money to new equipment‚ technology‚ labours or jobs. Instead‚ they are waiting for the economy improving with depositing the cash. This sort of situation

Report 1.0 Introduction Throughout the production of this report I will aim to explain an analysis of the costs and benefits of foreign direct investment for New Zealand both in theoretical and empirical terms. When it comes to defining FDI different countries may define it differently and because of this it is arbitrary‚ but foreign direct investment can be described as: "Foreign Direct Investment is the purchase by the investors or corporations of one country of non-financial assets in another

Green computing can be thought of as an environmentally conscious effort to make long-term computing sustainable by using energy efficient methods. The goals of green computing are similar to those of green chemistry‚ which try to minimize hazardous material use‚ maximize efficiency and enhance recyclability. Yet all this extra effort put into designs has a negative impact on system throughput. Therefore the question is posed‚ is the extra overhead involved in designing superior data centers‚ optimizing

Abstract Green computing is the study and practice of using computing resources efficiently. The goals are similar to green chemistry; that is reduce the use of hazardous materials‚ maximize energy efficiency during the product ’s lifetime‚ and promote recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory waste. Taking into consideration the popular use of information technology industry‚ it has to lead a revolution of sorts by turning green in a manner no industry has ever done before
