Fund Charges

An income statement or profit-and-loss account gives the net annual profit A vp before tax. In order to assess the annual cash income Ac, as a source of funds from the value of the net annual profit A vp given in the income statement, it is necessary to add back all noncash expenses such as the balance-sheet annual depreciation charge Abd-This practice sometimes erroneously suggests that depreciation is a source of funds, whereas cash income is the only source of funds. 

Because of increased funding, and expansion of the Clinical Research Department, a reorganization took place in early 1963. The reorganizers created a separate Psychopharmacology Branch and placed me in charge. 

Other Capital Items Paid-up royalties and licenses are considered part of the capital investment since these are replacements for capitd to perform process research and development. The initial catalyst and chemical charge, especially for noble metal catalysts and/or in electrolytic processes, is a large amount. These materials are considered to have a hfe of 1 year. If funds must be borrowed for a new facility, then the interest on borrowed funds during the construction period is capitalized otherwise, the interest is part of the operating expense. 

In business, money is either borrowed or loaned. If money is loaned, there is the risk that it may not be repaid. From the lender s standpoint, the funds could have been invested somewhere else and made a profit therefore, the interest charged for the loan is compensation for the forgone profit. The borrower may look upon this interest as the cost of renting money. The amount of interest charged depends on the scarcity of money, the size of the loan, the length of the loan period, the risk that the lender feels that the loan may not be repaid, and the prevailing economic conditions. Engineers involved in the presentation and/or the evaluation of an investment of funds in a venture, therefore, need to understand the time value of money and how it is applied in the evaluation of projects. 

Much, though not all, of the scientific knowledge produced around the globe has traditionally been handled in this fashion. One thinks here of the scientific research performed by government research facilities or of academic research funded either by government or by private donors who wish the product of that research to be shared, free of charges as widely as possible, on a global basis. One occasionally sees proposals to apply this approach also to pharmaceutical research. Various models could be used to that end. 

Frequently asked questions by purchasing are Why do you include an allocation for R D costs, when we already have funded your R D expenses through a milestones payment agreement or Why do you charge 5% for marketing sales, when all what you need to do is to ask your commercial assistant to call off a truckload once a month ... 

Phase 2 Business initiation. 3.000 are being charged for individual analysis and evaluation at which the Ministry of Life bears halfof the amount (support fund). If user decides FOR the implementation of chemical leasing, all costs at this phase will be ceased to apply. 

This is a form of Sand s equation and dates from the remarkably early time of 1901. It reminds us that there was much progress made in the early days of electrochemistry with diffusion-related situations one might call it the macrophase of the subject. (Hie Warburg impedance was derived even earlier it deals with impedance due to diffusion. See Section 7.5.13.5.) Consideration on a microscale (the things that happen during charge transfer over 5 A at the interface) had another 50 years before it became a funded research topic. 

Careful research has weakened assertions that environmental chemicals are endocrine disruptors and major causes of cancer. Environmental organizations still tout the risks to raise the public s awareness—they say—and to solicit contributions. Government officials, in charge of programs to investigate the risks, continue to provide funds to scientists who look for evidence to support the assertions and to programs that test chemicals for effects that have little, at best, and more likely, no, relationship to human health. Environmental organizations publicity and gov-...
