If so, this is arguably insider dealing on a grand scale with the benefit of inside specialist knowledge of the business and resources of the firm not shared with outsiders like politicians and members ( and, perhaps, regulators ).

If the compromise was a rebuke to the most radical vision of the liberty of the Church, on at least one point its implication was firm and unmistakable: The king, even an emperor, was a layman.

If the firm is a perfect competitor in all input markets, and thus the per-unit prices of all its inputs are unaffected by how much of the inputs the firm purchases, then it can be shown that at a particular level of output, the firm has economies of scale if and only if it has increasing returns to scale, has diseconomies of scale if and only if it has decreasing returns to scale, and has neither economies nor diseconomies of scale if it has constant returns to scale.

If, however, the firm is not a perfect competitor in the input markets, then the above conclusions are modified.

If the roots are not firm and healthy, the tree will not survive-but the roots only form the foundation of the tree.

If the MRP is greater than a firm's Marginal Cost, then the firm will employ the worker since doing so will increase profit.

* If the price is between average total cost and average variable cost at the profit-maximizing output, then the firm is said to be in a loss-minimizing condition.

* If the price is below average variable cost at the profit-maximizing output, the firm should go into shutdown.

If the firm lowers price P < MC then it will be losing money on every unit sold.

If the revenue the firm is receiving is greater than its total variable cost ( R > VC ) then the firm is covering all variable cost plus there is additional revenue (" contribution "), which can be applied to fixed costs.

If the firm decides to operate, the firm will continue to produce where marginal revenue equals marginal costs because these conditions insure not only profit maximization ( loss minimization ) but also maximum contribution.

If R < VC the firm should shut down.

This is because each point on the supply curve is the answer to the question " If this firm is faced with this potential price, how much output will it be able to and willing to sell?

" If a firm has market power, so its decision of how much output to provide to the market influences the market price, then the firm is not " faced with " any price, and the question is meaningless.

If the seller is a competitive firm, the tax burden is distributed over the factors of production depending on the elasticities thereof ; this includes workers ( in the form of lower wages ), capital investors ( in the form of loss to shareholders ), landowners ( in the form of lower rents ), entrepreneurs ( in the form of lower wages of superintendence ) and customers ( in the form of higher prices ).

" If the firm " actually copied code from a GPL'd program, such a suit would be a perfectly ordinary assertion of copyright, which most private firms would defend if the shoe were on the other foot.

If trying to decide between alternative investments in order to maximize the value of the firm, the corporate reinvestment rate would probably be a better choice.

If the firm also pollutes the atmosphere when it makes steel, however, and if it is not forced to pay for the use of this resource, then this cost will be borne not by the firm but by society.

If the second theory is correct, this raises the further question of why the Persians, having hesitated for several days, then attacked.

If a player knows he has a freeroll, he can raise the pot with impunity, and often a less-skilled opponent with a good hand who does not realize that he is on the wrong end of the freeroll will continue to put in raises with no possible hope of gain.

If no other hardware responds, the CPU raises an exception, stating that the requested physical address is unrecognized by the whole computer system.

If the hardware raises a page fault exception, the paging supervisor accesses secondary storage, returns the page that has the virtual address that resulted in the page fault, updates the page tables to reflect the physical location of the virtual address and tells the translation mechanism to restart the request.

If Yahweh was not a Canaanite god, this raises the question of where he originated and how he became the national god of Israel and Judah in Iron Age II ( 1000-586 ).

* If a person is lying on his / her stomach with arms stretched in front and another person raises his / her arms about 2 feet off the ground and holds them there for approximately one minute, with the person on the ground having his / her eyes closed and head hanging, then slowly lowers the arms to the ground, it will feel as if the arms are going below the level of the rest of the body.

If a player's table image is that of an aggressive bluffer, slow playing is less important because his opponents will be more willing to call his usual bets and raises.

If Heracles was Alexander ’ s illegitimate child, then it also raises the pointed question as to why he, as Alexander ’ s only living son at the time of his death, was not immediately drawn into the succession disputes, and why he was passed over in favour of Philip Arrhidaeus-himself illegitimate-who was only a son of Alexander ’ s father Philip, and thus a more distant claimant than Heracles.

If the first credit card company raises the limit to $ 2, 000 ; the ratio lowers to 30 percent ; which could boost the FICO rating.

If the CPU finds no valid entry for the virtual address in the page tables, it raises a page fault exception, which the operating system must handle.

If a single driver raises his hand to indicate that he can't start, the marshall for that row will wave a yellow flag, then after a few seconds, both the red and orange lights will extinguish and the green lights will come on to indicate another formation lap.

If they are successful, this raises the costs faced by their employers.

If the group decision was 0 or 1 and a voter raises a vote from − 1 to 0 or 1 or from 0 to 1, the group decision is 1.

If, however, firms achieve higher sales per worker the more they invest per worker, they will try to increase investments per worker as long as this raises their rate of profit.

If the chassis of the vehicle contacts the ground when the suspension was at its ' off road ' height, the system senses the reduction in load on the air springs and raises the vehicle an extra inch.

If it is indeed possible that a gas giant could form as a star does, then it raises the question of whether such an object, even one as familiar as Jupiter or Saturn, should be considered an orbiting low-mass star rather than a planet.

If one of the shimpan disagrees or is unsure about the decision then he raises his hand and the five of them climb into the ring, or dohyo to hold a mono-ii.
