with convergence‚ we start by defining a similar expression when the sum is finite. Definition. A Fourier polynomial is an expression of the form [pic] which may rewritten as [pic] The constants a0‚ ai and bi‚ [pic]‚ are called the coefficients of Fn(x). The Fourier polynomials are [pic]-periodic functions. Using the trigonometric identities [pic] we can easily prove the integral formulas (1) for [pic]‚ we have [pic] (2) for m et n‚ we have

CONSUMER DEMAND AN ECONOMETRIC IN HONG KONG ANALYSIS 1 E. R. LIM * Introduction The objectives of consumer demand analysis are first‚ to isolate a few major variables from the many and complex factors influencing consumer behaviour‚ and second‚ to verify empirically that this relatively small number of parameters gives a reasonable explanation of a wide range of observations on consumer behaviour. The quantitative knowledge thus obtained is necessary for the study of economic development

Students will benefit by reviewing Chapter 3’s demand and supply analysis prior to reading this chapter. Depending upon the course outline used in the micro principles course‚ this chapter could be taught after Chapter 3. Both the elasticity coefficient and the total receipts test for measuring price elasticity of demand are presented in the chapter. The text attempts to sharpen students’ ability to estimate price elasticity by discussing its major determinants. The chapter reviews a number of

stadium on a local economy is insignificant compared to the costs of the stadium. However‚ the literature has ignored the welfare gain generated by a stadium. The annual consumer surplus generated by a stadium is calculated from a simple demand curve for baseball games using 1972 to 1991 data on ticket prices and attendance. Estimates of the consumer surplus are in the range of $2.2 million to $54.1 million per season. Further‚ the annual net benefit of a stadium exclusive of any induced economic

CONSOLIDATION Abstract The aim of this experiment was to explain how to use two type of oedometer to calculate compression index (Cc) and re-compression index (Cr)‚ measuring the pre-consilidation (s’vc)‚ and to predict the coefficient of consolidation (Cv). The soil used in this experiment is Kaolinite clay‚ which has Cv = 8.69 sqm/year at 300 kPa (hydraulic result) and Cv = 2.98 sqm/year at 288 kPa (manual result). This result then would be compare with some theoretical calculation
