The majority of long-term assets consist of property, plant, and equipment and intangibles. These assets are capitalized on the balance sheet and depreciated on the income statement over their estimated useful lives.

Refer to the annual report of the company you’ve selected to analyze. Research and answer the following:

1. What are the balances of net property, plant, and equipment at the company’s year-end for the two most recent years you are researching?
2. Referring to the notes to the financial statements, what depreciation methods did the company use? What were the estimated useful lives of the assets? What kinds of intangible assets does the company own?
3. Calculate the percent of net fixed assets compared to total assets for the company for the two most recent years you are researching? The formula for this calculation is Net Fixed Assets divided by Total Assets.

Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document.

Construct the circuit shown in Figure 1 below in Multisim with R1 = 2.2 KΩ and R2 = 1.8 KΩ. Use a 10% tolerance for the resistors. Assume an ideal diode.

Part (A)

1. Calculate current (i) for the circuit. Show work.
2. Calculate the voltage drops across R1 and across R2.
3. Measure total current for the circuit and compare it to your calculated value in step 1. Be sure to provide a screenshot displaying the measured result.
4. Measure the voltage drops across R1 and across R2, and compare it to what you calculated in step 2. Include a screenshot.

Part (B)

Reverse the polarity of the diode and construct the circuit.  Repeat steps 3 and 4 above.

1. Tabulate all your data, both calculated and measured, using units and headings as appropriate.
2. Explain differences, if any, between your calculated and measured results in Part A. In detail and in words, explain the differences in results for Part B in relation to Part A.

Create a professional document including all the information above. Save the document as Lab1YourGID.docx (ex: Lab1G00050331.docx), or in another relevant document format.
