... MV = PY, by lowering both M and V, P and Y can stabilize if they are increasing too rapidly. The Fed does this by selling securities on the open market. This, in turn, reduces bank's reserves and forces the interest rate to rise so the banks can afford to make loans. People seeing these rises in rates will tend to sell their low interest assets, in order to acquire additional money, they tend move toward higher yielding accounts, also further increasing the rate. Soon this small change by the Fed affects all aspects of business, from the price level to interest rates on credit cards. Rises and falls in the interest rate can reflect many changes in ...
... for Great Britain? Below are discussed the pros and cons of monetary union from a British perspective, and the choice for Britain. ARGUMENTS 'AGAINST' THE UK JOINING THE EMU TRANSITIONAL COSTS The most significant economic cost involved in the transition to the EMU will be the expense and dislocation involved in replacing national currencies with the Euro. The UK decimalization in 1971 took almost 5 years to complete, yet this involved a change in only one currency compared with up to 15 if the EMU goes ahead. Apart from producing and distributing the new currency, IT systems, tills, slot machines and accountancy systems will have to be changed. These will als ...
... tobacco to be inspected as it moves along the top conveyor. As tobacco falls to the bottom conveyor, the pile is flipped and the bottom of the pile is inspected. Damaged and foreign material is removed from the tobacco piles at this point. In order to regulate the flow, material is blended and entered on the line into bulk feeders. A weighing belt system helps maintain a consistent even flow rate through the process. The ordering cylinder is the next step in the automation process. Here steam, heat and/or water depending on the brand and quality of the crop is applied. This conditioning process helps to make the tobacco easier to handle while reducing breakage. ...
... money, or lives. Workers on drugs are not alert and uncoordinated. Uncoordinated workers on an assembly line have a higher percentage of error than their sober counterparts making for defective parts and merchandise which will be returned by irate customers. This will cost a company in worthless merchandise and unhappy customers who most likely will not use their products again. A worker with a drug problem also misses more days, on sick leave, compared to a worker without a drug problem. The most logical reason for drug abuse is the accessibility of drugs at work and in society. If drugs are so accessible then of course there are going to be abusers. The go ...

... many scientists. Science and the world as they knew it would never be the same again. A brief look at a timeline of events for Genentech would show that FDA (Food & Drug Administration) approvals for lifesaving drugs took a lengthy amount of time. The FDA gives approval to market the products in the United States (other countries have analogous regulatory agencies). Genentech received over 15 FDA approvals from 1985 to 1999. FDA approval is based on the official data resulting from Genentech’s clinical trial system. The system is divided into three phases (refer to Products). The first is Phase I clinical trials which are designed to examine the safety of t ...

... to use was an AKAI VSG745, and was in fact available from both stores. The computer was the most difficult part of the system to match, as the Dixons systems came with some added bonuses such as extra multimedia software and Internet capability. I therefore reduced the price of the Dixons machine to account for these differences, by deducting the price that it would cost to upgrade on the Tandy machine. So, to give the Tandy computer Internet capability would cost £150, so that was deducted, and the multimedia software would have cost £50, so that was deducted. The computer specification I aimed to have as a common platform was an Intel Pentium 120MHz machine, ...
... down to the job of ruling China. Its main goal was essentially nationalist: a prosperous modern economy. While here continued to exist substantially economic inequalities, distribution of wealth was probably a bit more equal than in most Western countries. ( Moise 171 ) While there were great variations in income between different villages, and between different jobs in the urban sector, the overall averages showed a clear pattern: the cities were much richer than the countryside. Most capital investments were going into urban industries. The urban workers, using considerable amount of heavy machinery, had a much higher average level of productivity compared to ...
... America. The economic miracle started in South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore then Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines. These countries achieved very remarkable rates of growth and development. They built high quality manufacturing industries from clothes to computers. (What went wrong? Hoover Digest 1998 No.3 William McGurn) In the paper written by William McGurn "What went wrong?", he explained that the people's minds in Asia only understood the word miracle and the banks failed to recognize the risks and credits of the bloom. The banks also failed to realize that they were only being used as policy arms by the government. The only word that ...
