consumption rates. These approaches may be limited in effectiveness because of the relatively low variable cost of medical care. Variable costs (for medication and supplies) are saved if a facility does not provide a service while fixed costs (for salaried labor‚ buildings‚ and equipment) are not saved over the short term when a health care facility reduces service. OBJECTIVE: To determine the relative variable and fixed costs of inpatient and outpatient care for a large urban public teaching hospital

Limitations Our experiment consisted of numerous limitation and uncontrolled variables which impacted on the validity of the outcome. These limitations include: the lack of repetition resulting in possibilities of outliers‚ inadequate temperature range and limited sample size at each group. The experiment also existed two other uncontrolled variables which are the size of liver and the amount of Hydrogen Peroxide‚ hence altering the authenticity of the practical result. At each of the five experimental

Three Month Treasury Bills and The Variables That Affect the Rates Abstract This paper attempts to create two models that can predict fluctuations in three-month US Treasury Bill yields. Using both simple and multiple regression analysis‚ we analyze the independent variables traditionally associated with risk free U.S. money market interest rates including the Consumer Price Index‚ the Industrial Production Index‚ and the Unemployment rate over two periods‚ July 1990-March 2001 and March 2001-December
