    Permanent employees below step 10 in their grade normally earn step increases after serving a prescribed period of service in at least a satisfactory manner. The normal progression is 52 weeks (one year) between steps 1–2, 2–3, and 3–4, then 104 weeks (two years) between steps 4–5, 5–6, and 6–7, and finally 156 weeks (three years ...

  3. Endogenous growth theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endogenous_growth_theory

    The endogenous growth theory primarily holds that the long run growth rate of an economy depends on policy measures. For example, subsidies for research and development or education increase the growth rate in some endogenous growth models by increasing the incentive for innovation.

  4. Relative growth rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_growth_rate

    RGR is a concept relevant in cases where the increase in a state variable over time is proportional to the value of that state variable at the beginning of a time period. In terms of differential equations , if S {\displaystyle S} is the current size, and d S d t {\displaystyle {\frac {dS}{dt}}} its growth rate, then relative growth rate is

  5. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    For example the function () = grows at an ever increasing rate, but is much slower than growing exponentially. For example, when =, it grows at 3 times its size, but when = it grows at 30% of its size. If an exponentially growing function grows at a rate that is 3 times is present size, then it always grows at a rate that is 3 times its present ...

  6. Growth accounting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_accounting

    Growth accounting decomposes the growth rate of an economy's total output into that which is due to increases in the contributing amount of the factors used—usually the increase in the amount of capital and labor—and that which cannot be accounted for by observable changes in factor utilization. The unexplained part of growth in GDP is then ...

    An example diagram of Profit Maximization: In the supply and demand graph, the output of is the intersection point of (Marginal Revenue) and (Marginal Cost), where =.The firm which produces at this output level is said to maximize profits.

  8. Malthusian growth model - Wikipedia

    r = the population growth rate, which Ronald Fisher called the Malthusian parameter of population growth in The Genetical Theory of Natural Selection, [2] and Alfred J. Lotka called the intrinsic rate of increase, [3] [4] t = time. The model can also be written in the form of a differential equation: =

  9. Control function (econometrics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_function...

    The function h(V) is effectively the control function that models the endogeneity and where this econometric approach lends its name from. [4]In a Rubin causal model potential outcomes framework, where Y 1 is the outcome variable of people for who the participation indicator D equals 1, the control function approach leads to the following model
