Questions 155-157 refer to the following article. Manufacturer Celebrates Milestone MINNEAPOLIS (August 13)—Lindgren Machinery, a manufacturer of precision machine parts, recently celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of its founding. The company was started by Jona Lindgren, who began his career as an apprentice at a metal parts firm in Sweden. He eventually immigrated to the United States and settled in the outskirts of the city of Minneapolis. Mr. Lindgren established a modest enterprise that grew, generating most of its revenue from the production of custom machine parts. Thirty years ago, Lindgren Machinery was purchased by James Wallin. Today, the firm continues as a family-owned and family-directed operation. In recent years, current president and CEO Mary Wallin has gradually assumed the leadership role from her father. Lindgren Machinery makes parts for airplanes, exercise equipment, and healthcare devices. According to Ms. Wallin, the company is planning to expand its facility and add capacity as its product list grows and diversifies. |

Search: Machine for trench digging Results: | 45-cm trencher | 60-cm trencher | 4-hour rental | $166 | $194 | 24-hour rental | $237 | $275 | | To: Sharia Stanton <sharla@stantonacres.ca> From: Ralph Fitzpatrick <rfitzpatrick@fitzgreenways.ca> Date: 6 April Subject: Trencher machine Hi Sharia, You had mentioned the other day that you anticipate needing to dig an irrigation trench on your property, just as I do. I wanted to let you know that I did some searching on the Zolio Rentals Web site, and 1 have decided that tomorrow I am going to rent the smallest trencher that is available. I will need the machine only for a couple of hours, but since the closest rental location is 45 minutes away in Durham, and it will take time to load it onto my truck both for the trip home and back to Durham again, I have decided to rent the machine for a full day. Would you want to use the machine while I have it? If so, we can coordinate our schedules, and I can bring it to you after I finish. Then I can return the trencher to Zolio Rentals the next morning. I will gladly cover the entire rental fee. It is my way of returning the favour for your help with my lawn mower last autumn. Please let me know. Regards, Ralph |

Questions 196-200 refer to the following e-mails and Web page. To: Kristof Szasz <kszasz@budaceramics.com> From: Anouk Ayala <aayala@ayala.net> Subject: Solar power options Date: January 25 Dear Mr. Szasz: Thank you for your recent e-mail requesting recommendations for solar power options for your ceramics company. Before I make a recommendation for which company would best serve your needs, could you answer these questions? 1. How flexible is your budget for solar panel purchase and installation ? 2. What is your time frame? The government plans to provide financial incentives toward the cost of installing solar power that will take effect in about two years. 3. What is the configuration of your property? If you have the space, you could choose to install solar panels in a parking area or on the ground. The first choice consists of canopies over your parking lot, while the second choice is great for large, unused areas. 4. What kind of roof do you have? A flat roof is not ideal. Neither is a roof that has a lot of equipment on it, as there is not enough room for large solar panels. 5. Are you planning on expanding your business in the future? I look forward to hearing back from you soon. Anouk Ayala | To: Anouk Ayala <aayala@ayala.net> From: Kristof Szasz <kszasz@budaceramics.com> Subject: RE: Solar power options Date: January 27 Dear Ms. Ayala: Our company headquarters is located outside of the capital city. The ceramics factory occupies approximately one-half of our property. To ensure sufficient cooling, much of the roof space is taken up by industrial-sized air-conditioning units and venting silos for our ovens. The rest of our property contains a sizeable parking lot, because there is no public transportation in the area, and our 150 employees must drive to work. The solar power business we choose should be well established. We have an inflexible deadline for our current project, so I am willing to sacrifice money to get the panels installed as soon as possible. I hope these answers help you with your recommendation. Kristof Szasz | http://www.solarinsider.com Based on a recent customer survey, these four solar power companies in the capital city area are rated the most successful. Company | Specialty | Comments | AKX Solar | Rooftop | Very low cost; a very stable company | Sun365 | All types | Superior quality; very thorough; but a bit slow | Beranek Systems | Parking areas | Fast turnaround; but quite expensive | Plutosolar | Ground installation | Cannot begin until March | |
