One of the first rules that is taught when learning Calculus is L’Hospital’s rule. The rule provides an easy technique to solve for a limit that has the indeterminate form 0/0. To get past this roadblock, L’Hospital’s rule allows for the individual differentiation of the numerator and denominator, and taking the limit of the result. If after the first application of the rule the limit once again produces the indeterminate form, it is possible to apply L’Hospital’s rule again. There is mystery…

capital base compared to the 7.94% group average. This was confirmed by the firm’s tier 1 ratio, that is the ratio of equity capital to risk-weighted assets: with a value of 16.10% Goldman Sachs would be classified as well-capitalised according to Basel III regulation (Bis.org, 2011). In terms of assets quality, Goldman Sachs’ ratios raised some concerns in 2016. Impaired loans to gross loans ratio was the group highest at 4.26%. Furthermore, loan loss reserve appeared to be inadequate, being…

nations, the Dutch, the Danes, and the English succeeded in colonial expansion. Andrea Strubind in a staff research paper on “Reformation Identities” rightly said that The discovery and conquest of the new worlds did not remain unknown to Luther, but they did not provoke him to any theological response. Not only Lutheranism, but all of Protestantism, remained aloof from the world missionary zealotry throughout the 16th century. Within Lutheranism, the rejection of the targeted missions until…

Recommendation Policy makers are actually making a trade-off on the way to create and expand a GSE. This off-budget vehicle that funnels government subsidiaries to favorable motive was, in turn, bringing risks for the government. Effective accountability and supervision are a must-have to limit the risks. Stanton (2007) had few view points on the matter of accountability. The author believes that effective operations and balance between flexibility and accountability are vital. Failure…

My person is Leonhard Euler. He was born in Basel, Switzerland, on April 15, 1707. His parents were Paul Euler and Marguerite Brucker. Euler had 2 sisters.

A balance sheet is a financial statement that shows the assets (what the company owns), liabilities (what the company owes) and equity (stockholders contributions plus retained earnings or losses) of an institution at a given point in time. The balance sheet formula is: Assets = liabilities + shareholder’s equity. The balance sheet formula of a bank is: Bank Assets = Bank liabilities + Bank’s capital The difference between the two is the way assets and liabilities are recorded and on the…

Markovits. The couple moved to Switzerland, where they would live out the remainder of their years together. Throughout the years, he wrote two books, “Love, Otto: The Legacy of Anne Frank” and “A Tribute to Anne Frank.” Unfortunately, Frank died in Basel, Switzerland in 1980. He was the last one of his family to survive the Holocaust and it was depressing to go out and search for a family that isn’t alive anymore. Though through the search he was given an opportunity, a chance to do one last…

Personal Statement of Melanie Ayllon Three years ago I had to decide where my focus for the next three and a half years would lie. I needed to choose between languages, science, arts or economics and law. I decided to take economics and law as part of a bilingual program (German and English) at my school. My decision was not primarily based on my interest in economics and law, but rather on the opportunity to take half of the syllabus in English. To participate in the bilingual program you could…

As shown by a large-scale study by a research team at the University of Basel, gsing fMRI data from 696 test subjects, the researchers were also able to show that stronger appraisal of negative emotional image content by the female participants is linked to increased brain activity in motoric regions. One researches…
