Quoted price

Equipment Costs. Equipment costs include the purchased cost of process and materials handling equipment, storage faciUties, waste treatment equipment, stmctures, and site service faciUties. Installation costs such as insulation, piping, painting and finishing, foundations, process stmctures, instmmentation, and electrical service connections are estimated or factored separately. Actual quoted prices from suppHers are the best data, but these are not usually available when estimates are made. The quick, inexpensive cost estimates are based largely on personal cost files, internal company cost data, or pubUshed cost correlations. 

Purchase and Sale of Equities Stockholders usually reqmre an adequate return on their investment, and the quoted price of the stock reflec ts the consensus opinion of investors as to the current health of the company. Purchases or sales are normally made through stockbrokers.

When the detailed-estimate design indicates that the proposed project should be a commercial success, the final step before developing construction plans for the plant is the preparation of a firm process design. Complete specifications are presented for all components of the plant, and accurate costs based on quoted prices are obtained. The firm process design includes blueprints and sufficient information to permit immediate development of the final plans for constructing the plant. 

From the text of the order placed by the Central Construction Management ( Ship 10 gas detectors immediately, as discussed [...] quote price later ) it also becomes clear that after a discussion with the firm of Topf and Sons the Central Construction Management was in a position to expect that the devices would be shipped without delay and that the price would be up to Topf. Both, however, could only have been the case for products that were part of Topf s standard stock, and thus not possibly for hydrogen cyanide residue detectors. The latter is also clearly apparent from Topf s reply, which indicates the necessity for laborious research to locate the manufacturers of these detectors. 

We conclude this chapter with a few brief notes about the availability of fullerenes for research applications. The Budty bibliography database, described in the introduction, lists several commercial suppliers of fullerenes. As of this writing, the quoted price is around 250 per gram of purified Ceo- There are also several detailed descriptions of the construction and operation of fullerene soot reactors and solvent-reflux purification systems in the literature.[Ko91, Kh92]. 

The economic utility of the direct esterification process depends, of course, upon cheap acetic acid (if acetates are being sought). For the process to compete with the present method for esterification which uses calcium acetate of about 85 per cent purity a source of cheap acetic acid will be necessary. Although a price considerably lower than the present quoted price for acetic arid is necessary, it seems possible that it could be made from acetylene at a satisfactory price.82... 

Recycled resins (all commodity and some engineering ones) are commercially available. A comparative list of prices of the virgin and recycled resins is shown in Table 16.5. The prices of recycled plastics are quite competitive. Evidently, while the quoted prices of commodity resins are reasonably close to these of virgin materials, the situation vis-a-vis condensation polymer is atrocious. The only way to make profit on the latter materials is to upgrade them by the recyclers ABC and supply compounds with well-defined and reproducible set of properties to a specific market niche. As it will be discussed later, the addition-type polymers can be reused after restabilization and compounding, whereas the condensation-type ones may require molecular repair to bring up... 

There is an active market today in spodumene concentrates. The quoted price is 11 to 12 per unit, with a unit defined as 1 ton of ore multiplied by the percentage of lithia (lithium oxide) contained in the ore. For example, an ore of 5% lithia content would be sold at 55 to 60 per ton. 

The cost of ferric chloride on treatment is determined by consumption of FeCl 3. The cost of ferric chloride depends on location of the treatment plant (transport cost), quality of the ferric chloride (solid/liquid/imported/purity) and quantity purchased. Quoted prices (per kg FeCl 3) ranged from about 0,29 US /kg for a 20 ton local delivery of liquid FeCls to US 7.10/kg for imported, high purity and low quantity FeCl3. It should be noted here that experiments in this smdy were performed with analytical grade FeCls. The impurities in FeCls produced from spent pickle liquor from iron and steel production may not be of concern when used for conventional treatment, but for membrane applications this effect should be investigated. For this reason both ends of the range are used for comparison. 

This is really the story of the beginning of alkali silicate manufactured in North America. The volume grew slowly. In 1893 Thomas wrote to Curtin, Hughes and Kellogg of Boston that the commerical papers were unlikely to quote prices for alkali silicates. He kept only small stocks for "outside... 

Again this may be a negotiable figure because price is what determines the profit and viability of the organization. It is easy to make the supplier stick to the quoted price but it must be remembered that changes may cost money and make the product a nonprofitable item for the supplier that could then be discontinued. Care needs to be taken in this area so that a supply of material will remain available. 

In all major bond markets the convention is to quote price as a clean price. This is the price of the bond as given by the present value of its cash flows, but excluding coupon interest that has accrued on the bond since the last dividend payment. As all bonds accrne interest on a daily basis, even if a bond is held for only one day, interest will have been earned by the bondholder. However, we have referred already to a bond s all-in price, which is the price that is actually paid for the bond in the market. This is also known as the dirty price (or gross price), which is the clean price of a bond plus accrued interest. In other words, the accrued interest must be added to the quoted price to get the total consideration for the bond. 

The bond s quoted price is in real terms. Settlement values and cash flows are arrived at using the following formulas ... 

Index-linked gilts, like all other linkers covered in this chapter, are known as capital indexed bonds, where the income and principal are adjusted for changes in a consumer price index, subject to a lag. In the United Kingdom, the index is the RPI and the lag is eight months. The market trades on a clean price basis, with the quoted price a cash price (not a real price), including inflation accretion. 

Consider the 10.5% UK Treasury 1992. The quoted price for this bond was 97-1 compared to the 10.5% Exchequer 1997 quoted at 93-10. 

The pricing problem for the firm is to decide what spot prices to post for each product and how the spot prices should be changed from one period to the next. At a point in time, the firm has information about previous demand expressed by all of its customers, certain customer characteristics, the current backlog on its order books, its own production plans, expectations regarding future demand and the characteristics of the markets in which its products are sold. Historically in the semi-conductor industry, customers were quoted prices according to their size (the total dollars spent in the semiconductor market) and... 

The papers discussed so far assume that once the firm quotes a customer a lead time (and price), the customer immediately makes a decision as to whether to accept or reject the offer. In reality, customers might shop around , i.e., request quotes from multiple firms, and/or need some time to evaluate an offer. Hence, there might be a delay before a customer reaches a decision on whether or not to accept an offer. Easton and Moodie [32] study DDM-P in the face of such contingent orders, which add variability to the shop congestion and hence to the lead time of a new order. In their model, the probability that the customer will accept a quoted price/due-date pair (i ,Z) follows an S-shaped logit model...
