Economic trends

Applications. Carpet undedayment as just descdbed is a substantial market. Most furniture cushioning is made from blocks of slab-produced polyurethane foam in the density range of 16 to 29 kg/m (1.0—1.8 lbs /fT). A minor portion of the market, 9—14 thousands of metric tons (20—30 million pounds) uses 40 kg/m (2.5 lbs/fT) high resident (HR) foam for higher pnced furniture cushions. The furniture market for polyurethane foams grew strongly until saturation occurred around 1979. Market use now tends to reflect the current economic trends. 

Residential and commercial fuel demands represent about 24% of total U.S. LPG consumption. Although this market demand is weather dependent, it has assumed the characteristics of a mature market. Growth is related to the general economic trends. 

Composition usually reflects the level of development of the metallurgical technology and the economic trends at the time when, and at the place where the coins were struck. 

Mathematics allows us to expand our consciousness. Mathematics tells us about economic trends, patterns of disease, and the growth of populations. Math is good at exposing the truth, but it can also perpetuate misunderstandings and untruths. Figures have the power to mislead people. 

Direct and indirect costs are compared public and private costs are estimated at 3.5-4 times those for EPA in 1981. Among the former is loss of innovation. While several studies of this factor have been made for the industry, their reliability is questioned, due in part to lack of sound data prior to 1976. No mention was made of economic trends affecting corporate expenditures for research and development, or of trends in the maturation of industrial chemistry itself. Other indirect costs, such as concentration of manufacture within the industry, may result from costs of compliance, especially for smaller manufacturers. These factors were not compared with extrinsic factors, such as shifts in feedstock supply and commodity manufacture from the United States to other countries. 

Wilson showed the increased movement of African Americans in white-collar jobs and attendant life styles similar to their white peers however, he speaks to the issue of career mobility and final positions commensurate with their education and career experience. Wilson s primary concern focused on the plight of the black underclass-whose life chances could not be attributed solely to race. Furthermore, economic trends that changed the structure of work limited the socioeconomic positions of the very poor regardless of race or ethnicity (Cose, 1993). 

Solutions to America s interrelated problems of scarce energy, clean environment, and price inflation require a comprehensive analysis of the economic consequences of policy alternatives before policy is changed. Major policy changes, in the face of resource scarcities, are greatly modifying the structure of the economy. Structural changes are resulting in totally new economic trends in supplies, demands, and prices.

During the last 40 years, industrial and technological development has greatly increased, mainly due to the development of the world economic status and the population increase. These factors result in increased demand for more materials—and increased wastes. The production and utilization of materials follow a certain life cycle, which is determined by the economic trends prevailing in that certain period. Industrialized, developed countries mostly determine the market trends and consumption rules, as well as the economic cycle of products.
