Absorption

1. The difference between absorption and variable costing is in how they mange fixed manufacturing overhead. Under absorption costing, fixed manufacturing overhead is treated as a product cost, therefore, is an asset until products are sold. Under variable costing, fixed manufacturing overhead is treated as a period cost and is immediately expensed on the income statement. Both methods threated all other costs the same way. 2. Selling and administrative expenses are treated as period costs under…

It is divided into three sections: the duodenum, the jejunum, and the ileum. The duodenum is the first section in which solutes pass through for absorption and the ileum is the final place for absorption in the small intestine. The inner surface of the small intestine appears to be folded, but is lined with finger-like projections called villi (Crane 1979). Along the villus one will find microvilli, tiny projections lined…

This experiment is used to understand polymers and how they are altered to get a specific product. Polymers are long chain molecules with repeating sequences of large atoms1. Polymers are important in the field of organic chemistry, because they can be changed to create different compounds used in everyday life. Polymers can be found in nature, such as starches, proteins, and cotton. They can also be man-made, such as plastics, Kevlar, and Teflon1. Polymers can be linear, branched,…

suggesting the antibody concentration required for full coupling was higher in ABT particles than CSS. However, we cannot claim 2 and 3-5 mg/ml were the concentrations required for full coupling due to the existence of passive absorption. An investigational experiment about passive absorption was then performed on these…

the pulmonary epithelial cells to metabolise B(a)P thereby facilitating its absorption and clearance from the lungs (IPCS, 1998). Occupational studies have inferred that inhaled PAHs are absorbed by humans, as urinary metabolites were present in workers exposed to PAHs (ASTDR, 1998). The absorption of B(a)P following inhalation is highly dependent on the type of particles onto which it is adsorbed. Pulmonary absorption often occurs in parallel with mucociliary clearance, by which PAHs that are…

thermal energy. If a color absorbs lots of energy, It makes lots of thermal energy (Morton, J. L. "Color and Heat Absorption"). Scientists believe that darker colors absorb better, and lighter absorb worse (Morton, J. L. "Color and Heat Absorption"). When heat enters an object, visible or invisible, it warms it to produce thermal energy. This process is called “Heat Absorption” (Heat Absorption." KidsGeo.com. Web). If an object is exposed to heat for a long time, it will absorb more energy.…

sold out of 6000 products produced, £11 each) but however still makes a loss of £6,102 in the gross profit (absorption system) which is -10.27% gross profit margin. In comparison to the gross profit (marginal system), it achieves a total contribution of £17,820 with a C/S ratio of 30%. If Pecan can achieve a sales of 5,955 units then it can breakeven with the cost of sales for the absorption…

intestines are unable to appropriately absorb nutrients. Additionally, it can occur diffusely where several nutrients are not absorbed, or partially causing nutrient-specific malabsorption. Normally, three steps are involved in absorption: luminal processing, intestinal mucosal absorption and transport into circulation1; failure at any one of these steps can lead to malabsorption. Fat Malabsorption Hydrophobicity of phospholipids, triglycerides and cholesterol creates a challenge due to their…

The purpose of the Light, Color, and Solutions experiment was to determine how to use a spectrophotometer, understand the relationship between a solution’s visible color and its color absorption, and to derive, understand, and use Beer’s Law. Some background information that would be helpful included that the color of a solution was determined both by the colors it absorbed as well as the colors it transmitted. For example, if a solution was viewed as the color red, then red light was…

Diffuse Optical Tomography is non invasive, non ionizing functional imaging modality used for detection of brain tumor and breast cancer. A forward model design depicts the placement of laser source and photo-detector around the tissue boundary. The light propagation on the phantom takes place in Near-Infra-Red wavelength. The incident light on the tissue boundary was absorbed and scattered. The scattered rays are detected by the photo-detector and scattered voltage of the tissue was measured.…
