dividend add value to the shares of a firm. The turning point in theoretical modeling of dividend was the brilliant paper of Modigliani and Miller (1961) of dividend Irrelevance. Since the postulation of dividend irrelevance‚ financial economists have argued via two major schools of thought; those who believe dividend is relevant and those that believe dividend is not relevant. Despite the theories by academics to examine dividend policy‚ the dividend picture is still puzzling. The objective of this paper

Aggregates is a major part of concrete‚ it is of urgent need that we look into the influence of aggregate on the fresh as well as hardened properties of concrete. Better grading of aggregate not only will show better results in the properties of the concrete but will also help in saving expensive materials such as cement‚ fly ash and admixture. In the comparative study of influence of the aggregate on high strength concrete‚ here is an attempt to study strength characteristics of cubes and cylinders

Aggregates for Concrete Aggregates are inert granular materials such as sand‚ gravel‚ or crushed stone that‚ along with water and cement‚ are an essential ingredient in concrete. Aggregates are the most mined materials in the world. For a good concrete mix‚ aggregates need to be clean‚ hard‚ strong particles free of absorbed chemicals or coatings of clay and other fine materials that could cause the deterioration of concrete. Aggregates‚ which account for 60 to 75 percent of the total volume

Diana Gaita Economics FB1 Discuss how changes on aggregate demand influence price levels‚ output levels and employment. The meaning of “aggregate” is added together. All of the elements introduced in microeconomics are totaled in macroeconomics. Aggregate demand and supply analysis brings together the amount that consumers wish to consume and firms wish to produce at any price levels. Aggregate demand (AD) is the total demand for final goods and services in the economy (Y) at a given

TYPES OF GROUPS Categories‚ Aggregates‚ and Groups Social Category - people who share a social characteristic‚ such as a taxpayer‚ a woman‚ or a college student. Social Aggregate - people who happen to be at the same place at the same time‚ such as students waiting in line for concert tickets. ● A group is sometimes confused with a social category and a social aggregate. Although neither categories nor aggregates are groups‚ some of their members may form groups by interacting regularly

Jeron April 8 2013 Assignment #7 Determinate sentencing vs. Indeterminate sentencing First of all‚ choosing amongst the two types of sentencing‚ indeterminate or determinate‚ really depends on the questions‚ what the crime is and is the crime violent or non-violent? If the crime is only non-violent such as fraud‚ then determinate sentencing would be the right fit for the suspects but if the crime that had occurred is murder‚ kidnapping‚ or other violent crimes‚ then the suspects would fall under

Application of Supply and Demand Concepts to Current H1N1 Vaccine Shortages R.Mate According to a recent article‚ the United States faces problems of H1N1 vaccine shortages as the swine flue epidemic spirals out of control. Even though the supply is increasing steadily‚ so is the demand for it. “The first estimates called for 40 million doses by the end of October and 190 million doses by year ’s end” (ACJ). Although production has been delayed several times the gap between supply and demand is closing

In determining the SSD and oven-dry weights needed for calculation of specific gravities‚ a conical mold was used to reach an SSD condition and the sample was later dried in an oven. Sieve analysis determined the particle size distribution by sifting the aggregate through a series of eight sieves of different sixes

We go through life dealing with these situations‚ but not knowing how they really affect us and the world around us. I had some ideas of how these principles worked‚ but was I taken for a loop when I tried to balance out the equations. This is what I learned
