What They Never Told You About Mistakes Is perfection really obtainable? Can we reach this abstraction without first falling and lending ourselves into the hands of failure? Thomas takes the controversial, misinterpreted concept of mistakes and parallels it with a hope so empowering that it yields progress. Most people tend to correlate mistakes with falling short and the incapability to achieve success on a level that offers satisfaction. However, Thomas rightfully and sufficiently sheds…

Japan has been experimenting with negative interest rates as a new way to boost their economy. I will be using two articles to talk about this current event, in this paper. My main article that I will be using is “Japan’s Negative Interest-Rate Experiment Is Floundering” and my second article is called, “Everything You Need to Know About Negative Rates” will help supplement the first article so that we can a better understanding of negative rates. I believe that this subject relates to a lot of…

create an animated sequence. Each frame is created and photographed (or digitized) independently.” The independent frames are then put together in a sequence which creates the illusion of movement. In this particular stop-motion animation, the frame rate is relatively low which creates a retro-like choppy feeling similar to that of Norman McLaren’s pixilation films from the 1950s. To me, this further enhances the feeling of…

(k-g) Whereby D1 = Expected dividend per share for the next year k = Required rate of return (can be estimated using the CAPM or Dividend Growth Model) g = Expected dividend growth rate • Multi-Stage Growth Model In cases where dividends are not expected to grow at a constant rate, the investor must evaluate every year’s dividend separately. However, this model does assume that dividend growth…

social, economic and political factors. Changes to the government policies cause an effect or influences systematic risk. There are different types of systematic risk such as interest risk which refers to a risk that is cause by the fluctuation in the rate or the interest from time to time and affects interest bearing securities like debentures. Another is inflation risk is referred to as purchasing power risk and it affects the purchasing power of an individual. The last is market risk which is…

Basing on the efficient frontier MA shows that it is possible to reduce the standard deviation (risk) via the combination of the two stocks as a portfolio. The standard deviation result of the portfolio in the attached excel (d) reveals a lower rate than original risk within Nike and Timberland respectively. In the other writing, the portfolio of the two stocks takes with a lower risk. Subsequently, the expected return also has a change in the portfolio. The expected return of the minimum…

Content Stoichiometry is the relationship of the masses of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction. For a given mass of a substance in a reaction, the mass of any other substance in the reaction can be obtained using the coefficients of the balanced chemical equations and the molar masses of the substances involved. The amounts obtainable from a balanced chemical equation are called stoichiometric amounts (Villamar Jr., 2004). As what was said in the introduction, the first topic that…

HALDANE RELATIONSHIP AND ONE-WAY ENZYMES  INTRODUCTION: Most of the enzyme catalyzed biological reactions are reversible in nature. However, an enzyme may prefer to catalyze the reaction more efficiently in one direction over the other under given physiological concentrations of substrate or product (substrate in the reverse direction). An enzyme favouring a virtual unidirectional catalysis of an overall reversible reaction can’t escape the laws of thermodynamics. As a catalyst doesn’t change…

is a widespread if rather flawed assumption which underpins much of mainstream macroeconomics. Political economists disagree with this assumption due to the endogenous nature of monetary supply, encompassing reverse causation and exogenous interest rates. It would be inappropriate to discuss neutrality of money or the rejection thereof without first discussing money itself. At its most basic, money is something deemed by an economy to have consistent numeraire value suitable for exchange and…

be the most feasible. Although the interest rates in Switzerland are relatively low compared to those in Australia, by issuing these bonds overseas, Rip Curl are inherently taking in risks associated with the market that may include: - Foreign currency risk - Inflation risk By relying on the exchange rate staying constant through the term of the bond, Rip Curl is taking on the risks of the foreign exchange market. For example, say that the exchange rate is $1 AUD is equal to $1 CHF, and that Rip…
