dollars invested in or benchmarked to capitalizationweighted market indexes such as the S&P 500 Index or the Russell 1000 Index. Many academic papers‚ however‚ have rejected the idea that cap-weighted indexes are good CAPM market proxies‚ which is equivalent to rejecting the mean–variance efficiency of those indexes.1 It also suggests that more efficient indexes exist. The effort to identify a better index may be moot‚ however‚ if ex ante identification is impossible or if cap-weighted equity market

Refractive Index: Refractive Index formula is use to find the change of speed of light as it travels from air into glass. It measure how much light slows down when it enters denser medium such as glass. The formulae is written as: To find out the refractive index‚ substitute these into the equation; The speed of light travels in air is 3 x 10^8-1 The speed of light travels in glass is 2 x 10^8 ms^-1 Refractive Index (Glass): 3 x 10^8 / 2 x 10^8 = 1.5 When light enters glass‚ its reflective index is 1

To compare the Shannon Diversity index between the Riparian and Coastal Sage Scrub community‚ acquiring the actual value of the Shannon Diversity index from both of these communities needs to be done first. This can be done through the assistance of these materials: a 50m Fiberglass Metric Long Tape Measure with a Pumpkin color‚ GPS Tracker‚ lab notebook with a reasonable amount of paper‚ black-inked pen‚ and a functioning calculator. First‚ in either the Riparian or Coastal Sage Scrub community

Inaccuracies of the Consumer Price Index(CPI) Aman Aggarwal Sept. 28‚ 1996 The Consumer Price Index is a measure of the prices of a fixed market basket of some 300 consumer goods and services purchased by a "typical" urban consumer. The 1982-1984 period serves as the base period so analysts can compare other year’s changes with this base period. The composition of the market basket is fixed in the base period and is assumed not to change from one period to another. The reason for the assumption

Introduction There are distinct non-sequential file structure models in the computer system‚ generally‚ the file structure can be subdivided into two major types which are the random (hashed) file and the index file. This will compare the both types of file structure models and its advantages and disadvantages. The random (hashed) file It is quite useful of this type structuring system while the files are non-sequential that can be depicted as data storage spaces and which are subdivided into

Dr. Justin Schmidt‚ an entomologist who came up with the Schmidt Sting pain Index describes the pain of being stung by a bullet ant as a local pain reaction that is characterized by crescendo of searing pain that lasts up to 24 hours. Their sting is rated a "4_+" in the Schmidt Sting Pain Index. The excruciating pain‚ he describes‚ comes in waves that recede and peak causing untold misery to the afflicted party. Bullet ants also known as Conga ants claim their fame form the searing pain they inflict

the lack of oxygenation it provides to the muscles. To test this theory we will compare the time it take for the index finger and the muscles around it to reach fatigue after a variation of excises. We will compare these results in Mann (2014) to see how our results vary. Methods: As per lab Manual‚ Wright‚ W. and Nankervis‚ S. (2016) Over a course of a minute‚ we will test the index finger fatigue levels by the intensity of the amount of resistance it had to carry‚ in this case an elastic band
