Probability theory

volatility: Time can play an important role in the valuation of warrants and certificates. Time is always against the purchaser of a warrant. Gradually as one approaches the deadline, a warrant forfeits value: the market conditions unchanged, the probability that the underlying evolves favourably decreases… which has a negative effect on premium of the warrant. For certificates, according to the different profiles, time effect is neutral or even positive for some products. The leverage can work against

that results in regular non-compliance. F lexibiliTy in Trade agreemenTs Governments have good reasons for signing trade agreements, but effective agreements must strike an appropriate balance between flexibility and commitments. Economic theory offers two main explanations why governments sign trade agreements. First, they allow parties to escape from mutually destructive beggar-thy-neighbour behaviour – or terms-of-trade conflicts – where trade restrictions may be used to change the prices

atmospheric modeling of ExternE. Experts have been asked to evaluate the approach taken by ExternE. Upper and lower bounds on the calculations of the dispersion module have been established by means of a Monte Carlo analysis, taking into account the probability distributions of the uncertain input parameters. EcoSense calculations have been compared with a recent and more detailed model, and for a few cases where measured data were available, they have been compared with EcoSense calculations; in all cases

conclude by summarizing the results and outlining some implications for school administrators and public policy makers. of incentives as interventions follows from behavior modification theories that find that a reward increases the rate or probability of the behavior on which the incentive is contingent (e.g., Skinner 1953). Overall, the literature on incentives suggests that incentives can increase healthful eating choices among children. Thus: H1: Providing incentives increases healthful food
