Answers how much to order when to order. Reduced price when item is purchased in larger quantities.The first model we will present is called the economic order quantity EOQ. We will discuss two types of quantity discount contracts: all units discounts and.buy the lowest total cost quantity, save the buyer money and, in some cases, receive more goods. quantity discount model example When we buy ...

In this paper we seek to account for scalar implicatures and Horn’s division of pragmatic labor in game-theoretical terms by making use mainly of refinements of the standard solution concept of signaling games. Scalar implicatures are accounted for in terms of Farrell’s (1993) notion of a ‘Neologism-Proof’ equilibrium together with Grice’s maxim of Quality. Horn’s division of pragmatic labor is...

AIM To compare the diagnostic accuracy of a consolidated method (i.e.gastrografin) and a new one (i.e.radiopaque markers) in detecting complete intestinal obstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-one patients with suspected small bowel obstruction were enrolled and received at admission orally 100 ml of Gastrografin and 10 radiopaque markers at the same time. A series of plain abdominal radi...

The level of the neutral glycolipid, Galnac beta 1 leads to 4 Gal beta 1 leads to 4Glc leads to Cer (asialo GM2), in BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts transformed by Kirsten murine sarcoma virus (3T3KIMSV) was greatly increased compared to the nontransformed parental cells (3T3). This elevated chemical quantity was found to be localized on the surface of intact cells and accessible to external reage...

Abstracts are well-accepted as the clarity and fidelity of language in any article assists the readership to get the central points of the research in a brief l but effective manner. Meanwhile, as a significant feature of any piece of discourse, meta-discourse markers can effectively render article abstract texts more reader-friendly and coherent. The present study aims at investigating the ext...

Marker-based XROMM requires software tools for: (1) correcting fluoroscope distortion; (2) calibrating X-ray cameras; (3) tracking radio-opaque markers; and (4) calculating rigid body motion. In this paper we describe and validate XMALab, a new open-source software package for marker-based XROMM (C++ source and compiled versions on Bitbucket). Most marker-based XROMM studies to date have used X...

The number of marker loci required to answer a given research question satisfactorily is especially important for dominant markers since they have a lower information content than co-dominant marker systems. In this study, we used simulated dominant marker data sets to determine the number of dominant marker loci needed to obtain satisfactory results from two popular population genetic analyses...

Increased quantity of neutrophils in peripheral blood, which play an important role in reperfusion damage of myocardium, attracts attention among prognostic markers of risk cardiac death in these decades [10, 13]. In experiment it has been shown that, activation of formation, the oxygen radicals at neutrophils at myocardial ischemia/reperfusion was accompanied by accumulation malonylaldehyde an...

The quantity of c-myc mRNA was measured during the retinoic-acid-induced differentiation of the pluripotent human teratoma cell line, Tera-2 cl. 13. As the cells were exposed to retinoic acid for longer periods of time the duration of the cell cycle progressively increased (measured by the rate of S phase entry) until the cells were effectively quiescent and expressed characteristic differentia...
