Price wars are bad, especially with high fixed costs. They reduce current profits and erode customers' perception of product quality. Price wars are not inevitable. For example, the French and the Germans fight every fifty years but not every year. But collusion is illegal

Investment Business fixed investment Equipment and structures that businesses buy to use in production Residential investment New housing that people buy to live in and that landlords buy to rent out Inventory investment Goods that business put aside in storage, including materials and supplies, work in process, and finished goods

The economic emergence of a fixed exchange rate periphery in Asia has reestablished the United States as the center country in the Bretton Woods international monetary system. We argue that the normal evolution of the international monetary system involves the emergence of a periphery for which the development strategy is export-led growth supported by undervalued exchange rates

Chapter3 Integral Relations(积分关系式) for a Control Volume in One-dimensional Steady Flows 3.1 Systems(体系) versus Control Volumes(控制体) System: an arbitrary quantity of mass of fixed identity. Everything external to this system is denoted by the term surroundings, and the system is separated from its surroundings by it's boundaries through which no mass

In lecture D2 we introduced the position velocity and acceleration vectors and referred them to a fixed cartesian coordinate system. While it is clear that the choice of coordinate system does not affect the final answer, we shall see that, in practical problems, the choice of a specific system may simplify the calculations considerably. In previous lectures, all the vectors at all points in the trajectory were expressed in the

When conducting monetary and fiscal policy, policymakers often look be- yond their own country's borders Even if domestic prosperity is their sole ob jective, it is necessary for them to consider the rest of the world. The international flow of goods and services and the international flow of capital can affect an economy in profound ways. Policymakers ignore these effects at In this chapter we extend our analysis of aggregate demand to include inter- national trade and finance. The model developed in this chapter, called the Mundell-Fleming model, is an open-economy version of the IS-LM model. Both models stress the interaction between the goods market and the money market. Both models assume that the price level is fixed and then show what

CEL is an interpreted, declarative language which enables users to enhance simulations without recourse to external fortran routines. It uses mathematical expressions for physical quantities as opposed to using fixed values. Access to CFX-5 internal variables (including solution variables)

Why Cost Estimation? Critically important part of system design Too high – lose the contract award Too low – over-run cost plus contracts, company loss on fixed price contracts
