employees are motivated by preserving the environement, and suppliers are not "squeezed". Finally for the profit parts Natura doesn't necessary loose his competitivness on the contrary and claim that his aim it's not about raking a profit at any costs, or the green image of natura is not just a marketing strategy. Actually it pay to be green because consumers support the Ekos products (the company increased its sales volume by 38% between the years 2000 and 2002. Natura’s net profits went up from

had an effect on the patient decision-making process.17 In addition, patients may not only consider monetary costs, but they may also take other costs into consideration, such as the amount of work missed due to the treatment.18 Patients’ perceptions of costs and benefits may thus affect the decisionmaking process as well. Concretely, it could be pre- dicted that the higher the financial costs, the more time involved in recovery, and the more pain that is expected to result, the less likely a patient

the outputs from investment = exported. FDI enables oil companies to secure their downstream activities (refinery..) located outside the country of extraction. Other resources = cheap un-/semi/skilled good for investors from country with high labor costs. +location-bound resource-seeking investments mainly tourism and construction = resources or attributes that are immobile. * Market-seeking investment invest in a country, not as an export platform, to supply G&S to it.

trade-off between a given traffic and the cost [9]. The main concern is to optimize the number of these transceivers because they are expensive devices whose cost depends on their wavelength tuning range. There are three types of lasers with different costs, from the cheaper to the more expensive: wavelength-specific lasers which emit only one wavelength, wavelength-tunable lasers which can generate multiple wavelengths but only one at a time, and multi-wavelength lasers which emit multiple wavelengths

of processes by both analyzing sources of waste and reducing waste. Lean Six Sigma provides organizations the tools to define, measure, analyze, improve, and control their processes. The Department of Defense is implementing Lean Six Sigma to cut costs, reduce waste, and speed up processes. The Department of the Army is utilizing Lean Six Sigma to revolutionize a variety of processes, including manufacturing, repairs, and administrative and human resource tasks. Lean Six Sigma allows the Department

It is a high proportion we are spending on promotions but we feel that launching a new lifestyle and product requires a high initial investment. But in the future, there will be gradually less advertising, which would cut the initial costs involving wider distribution would not be necessary. Hence our

has the possibility to transform assets by means of production possibilities. We propose a specic concept of arbitrage for such portfolios and extend some results of Rásonyi [Rásonyi 10] in discrete time for markets with proportional transaction costs. This allows to show the closedness property and corollaries such as portfolio optimization problem or a super-hedging theorem. We then study such portfolios with nancial possibilities in continuous time, with or without frictions. This framework
