Public choice This work assumes a group of individuals who aim to form a government, then it focuses on the problem of hiring the agents required to carry out government functions agreed upon by the members.

Public choice According to Brennan and Lomasky, the paradox of voting can be resolved by differentiating between expressive and instrumental interests.

Public choice Buchanan in 1986, reportedly summarized the public choice view of politicians by saying, "embodies the homely but important truth that politicians are, after all, no less selfish than the rest of us."

Public choice For example, from the viewpoint of rational choice theory, the expected gains of voting depend on (1) the benefit to the individual if their candidate wins, and (2) the probability that the individual's vote will determine the election's outcome.

Mathematical optimization (alternatively spelt "optimisation") or mathematical programming is the selection of a best element (with regard to some criterion) from some set of available alternatives.

Mathematical optimization While a local minimum is at least as good as any nearby elements, a global minimum is at least as good as every feasible element. Generally, unless the objective function is convex in a minimization problem, there may be several local minima. In a convex problem, if there is a local minimum th... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=52033 |

Universal Product Code The (UPC) (redundantly: UPC code) is a barcode symbology that is widely used in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and other countries for tracking trade items in stores.

Universal Product Code In 1973, a group of trade associations from the grocery industry formed the Uniform Product Code Council (UPCC) which, with the help of consultants Larry Russell and Tom Wilson of McKinsey & Company, defined the numerical format that formed the basis of the Uniform Product Code. Technology firms ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code In late 1970, Heard Baumeister provided equations to calculate characters per inch achievable by two IBM bar codes, Delta A and Delta B. In February, 1971, Baumeister joined Laurer. In mid 1971, William "Bill" Crouse invented a new bar code called Delta C. It achieved four times the characters pe... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code In the spring of 1972, Baumeister announced a breakthrough. He proposed a label with bars that were slightly longer than the distance across all bars that needed to be read in a single pass. This label could be scanned with a simple "X" scanner only slightly more complex than the straight line la... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code The guard bars also provided identification for half label discrimination and training bars for the scanner threshold circuits. Laurer had a complete label definition and proceeded to write his proposal. Previously Crouse had an idea for a simple wand worn like a ring and bracelet. He decided to ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code It was decided that the two halves of the label should have a different set of numeric characters. The character set Laurer derived from the Delta C patent used seven printable increments or units where two bars and two spaces would be printed. This yielded twenty combinations of characters, but ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code David Savir, a mathematician, was given the task of proving the symbol could be printed and would meet the reliability requirements, and was most likely unaware of Baumeister's equations.

Universal Product Code The width of each bar (space) is determined by multiplying the x-dimension and the module width (1, 2, 3, or 4 units) of each bar (space). Since the guard patterns each include two bars, and each of the 12 digits of the UPC-A barcode consists of two bars and two spaces, all UPC-A barcodes consist... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code The total width for a digit is always 7 modules; consequently, UPC-A 12-digit number requires a total of 7×12 = 84 modules. A complete UPC-A is 95 modules wide: 84 modules for the digits (L and R sections) combined with 11 modules for the S (start), M (middle), and E (end) guard patterns. The S (... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code When confronted with an upside-down symbol, the scanner may simply ignore it (many scanners alternate left-to-right and right-to-left scans, so they will read the symbol on a subsequent pass) or recognize the digits and put them in the right order. There is another property in the digit encoding.... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=53700 |
Universal Product Code The check digit equation is selected to have reasonable error detection properties (see Luhn algorithm). UPC in its most common usage technically refers to UPC-A.

IS–LM model Income is at the equilibrium level for a given interest rate when the saving that consumers and other economic participants choose to do out of this income equals investment (or, equivalently, when "leakages" from the circular flow equal "injections").

IS–LM model Mathematically, the LM curve is defined by the equation formula_4, where the supply of money is represented as the real amount "M"/"P" (as opposed to the nominal amount "M"), with "P" representing the price level, and "L" being the real demand for money, which is some function of the interest rate and the l... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=54057 |
IS–LM model This raises the equilibrium interest rate (from i to i) and national income (from Y to Y), as shown in the graph above.

Tariff A tariff is a tax on imports or exports between sovereign states.

Tariff A boom would generate enough revenue for tariffs to fall, and when the bust came pressure would build to raise them again.
