Average winning bid price
According to collusion theorists, the mean winning bid price in the “rigged” market will exceed the mean winning bid price in the competitive market for each year in which collusion occurs. In addition, the difference between the competitive average and the “rigged” average tends to grow over time when collusionary tactics are employed over several consecutive years.

    Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions

    The Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions sparked great controversy throughout the United States during 1798 and 1799. The resolutions were manifestos that protested against the Federalist Alien and Sedition Acts. The authors of the resolutions remained anonymous, but were written by James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, who were upset with how the Federalists were ruling the nation. These two republicans knew something needed to be done for the central government to be limited and the states to gain more power.…

    Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions

    During the late 18th century, political and social disagreements between the American colonies and Britain led to the most significant event in American History, the American Revolution. The American Revolutionary War lasted from 1775 to 1783. It is the reason as to why we became the United States. The original thirteen colonies did not agree with the Parliament of Great Britain governing them without representation so they rejected and expelled royal officials and Provincial Congress. Two major political parties formed the Federalists and the Republicans. These two parties were always at great competition with each other to gain public popularity. At the same time tension started between the United States and France and an undeclared war was ensuing with France. These were the two causes that led to the administration of John Adams passing out the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1978. There were four acts in total, the first three were regarding the rights of immigrant. The Sedition Act however, was perhaps the most controversial. It was deemed unconstitutional because it violated the right of speech and allowed the prosecution of anyone who voiced or printed their opinions if it went against the government or the president of the United States. In response to the Sedition Act Thomas Jefferson drafted the Kentucky Resolutions of 1798 and James Madison drafted the Virginia Resolutions of 1798 with the help of Thomas Jefferson.…

    Kentucky Virginia Resolutions

    Throughout the early days of the United States of America, when the nation was beginning to take structural form, the power of the national government increased greatly. Much of this is due to the Federalist ideas present by our first President George Washington, and other prominent founding fathers such as Alexander Hamilton and John Jay. The Federalist position, which supported a strong central government favoring power to the national or federal government, was very prominent in the early days, however it was not unopposed. With the growing power of the national government, those known as Anti-Federalists entered the picture. Anti-Federalists favored power to the states, and sought a weak central government in order to ensure the right of individuals in the nation. Later Anti-Federalists formed the Democratic-Republican Party headed by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. It was through the actions of the members of the Democratic-Republicans, through events including The Whiskey Rebellion of 1794, and the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798, that they were effective in decreasing the size of the federal government, ensuring individual rights to the people of the U.S. and stealing power away from the Federalist Party.…

    Kentucky v. King case brief

    Facts: In Lexington, Kentucky, police officers followed a suspected drug dealer to an apartment building where he went. When they arrived outside of the door to the apartment where the suspect was they reportedly could smell marajuana. The police then knocked and shouted they they were there and in return they could hear what sounded like people destroying the evidence and running around. The police then knocked down the door and saw the respondent as well as drugs laying out without having to look anywhere. later the police found more drugs and paraphernalia doing a more in-depth search. “The Circuit Court denied respondent’s motion to suppress the evidence, holding that exigent circumstances—the need to prevent destruction of evidence—justified the warrantless entry. Respondent entered a conditional guilty plea, reserving his right to appeal the suppression ruling, and the Kentucky Court of Appeals affirmed.” The Supreme Court of Kentucky also assumed that there was an exigent circumstance but it still invalidated the search. The court stated that the police should have foreseen that their conduct would most likely result in the tenants attempting to destroy the evidence therefore they should have had a warrant before going there.…

    Georgia Tech Case

    Technology transfer is the process by which research universities transform their discoveries to products and services that reach the general public. Translational research has grown so much since the late 1970’s that every major research university in the United States now has a technology transfer office (TTO). (Valdivia, 2013) Among these is the Office of Industry Engagement (OIE) at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). To garner a deeper understanding about the commercialization of research, I reviewed the mission, vision, and objectives of the OIE and interviewed Dr. Terry Bray, Directory of Technology Licensing. In this paper, I will summarize my findings, including the OIE’s measures of success and their biggest challenges.…

    Exponential growth occurs when the growth rate of the value of a mathematical function is proportional to the function's current value. Exponential decay occurs in the same way when the growth rate is negative. In the case of a discrete domain of definition with equal intervals it is also called geometric growth or geometric decay (the function values form a geometric progression). The exponential growth model is also known as the Malthusian growth model.…
