Relational rent

Based on the ERBV (Lavie 2006), collaborative advantage can be understood as a function of the combined value and rarity of all shared resources among supply chain partners (i.e., relational rents) while competitive advantage of a firm depends on the total value and rarity of the firm s own shared and non-shared resources (i.e., internal rents) and resources interactions with partners (i.e., appropriated relational rents and spillover rents). When collaboration is formed, each partner endows a subset of its resources to the collaboration with the expectation of generating common benefits from the shared resources of both hrms (Lavie 2006). 

Collaborative advantage is based on the relational view, which elaborates on the mechanisms of joint value creation (i.e., interfirm rent generation). It argues relational rents accrue at the collaboration level for mutual benefits. Unlike studies that acknowledge the role of both private and common benefits (Hamel 1991 Khanna et al. 1998), the relational view emphasizes common benefits that collaborative partners cannot generate independently. 

In contrast, collaborative advantage is joint competitive advantage and come from a relational rent, a common benefit that accrues to collaborative partners (Dyer and Singh 1998). This type of rent cannot be generated individually by either collaborative partner. In addition, Lavie (2006) model extends prior research on joint value creation in dyadic alliance by considering unilateral accumulation of spillover rents that produce private benefits. 

According to the relational view and the ERBV (Dyer and Singh 1998 Lavie 2006), the link of SCC CA (i.e., H5) focuses on the joint value creation process. Firms generate common benefits (i.e., relational rents) through supply chain collaboration. The link of CA->FP (i.e., H7) focuses on the value appropriation process. Firms improve their performance by appropriating relational rents. The direct link of SCC FP (i.e., Hs) focuses on the spillover rents (and internal rents) that generate private benefits to the focal firm, which is not related to collaborative advantage. Such private benefits directly impact firms performance. 

Cost Calculation. The main elements determining production cost are identical for fine chemicals and commodities (see Economic evaluation), a breakdown of production cost is given in Table 2. In multipurpose plants, where different fine chemicals occupying the equipment to different extents are produced during the year, a fair allocation of costs is a more difficult task. The allocation of the product-related costs, such as raw material and utiHties, is relatively easy. It is much more difficult to allocate for capital cost, labor, and maintenance. A simplistic approach is to define a daily rent by dividing the total yearly fixed cost of the plant by the number of production days. But that approach penalizes the simple products using only part of the equipment.

You should also faithfully record redundant relationships and views. Your client sometimes speaks of the renter of a Video, which is a Customer, as shown in Figure 5.4. But you may also be told, We record the date a video went out, whether a deposit was paid, when it is due back, and who rented it That is called a rental. So the renter of a Video is the Customer named on the Rental this is a derived relation (see Figure 5.5).

Curves 4 and 4 in Fig. 5.6 show an example of the current-potential relation obtained for an irreversible electrode process. For a reversible electrode process, the reduction wave appears at the same potential as the oxidation wave, giving an oxidation-reduction wave if both Ox and Red exist in the solution (curves 1, 2 and 3 in Fig. 5.6). For an irreversible process, however, the reduction wave (curve 4) is clearly separated from the oxidation wave (curve 4 ), although the limiting currents for the two waves are the same as those in the reversible process. The cur-rent-potential relation for the irreversible reduction process can be expressed by...

Special attention should be drawn to the complicated problems existing in the Russian-Ukrainian relations in the Black Sea. The most acute for the Ukrainian side is the problem of the presence of the Russian Black Sea Navy on its territory. Regardless of the treaty concluded between these countries, under which the Russian Navy is entitled to rent navy bases on the territory of Ukraine in Crimea until 2017, the Ukrainian side advances newer and newer demands concerning actual location of forces and means of the Russian Navy on its territory. Such a policy pursued by the Ukrainian side and spearheaded to sharpening of bilateral relations in the region is an attempt to consolidate its cooperation with EU and the USA at the expense of the relations with Russia. In its relations with the EU, Ukraine sees the perspectives of political cooperation overlooking here the issues of political stability in a wider geopolitical context. 

In the first case, characteristic viscosity of the fraction, r ], with the known molecular mass in ideal -solvent was measured. This method is based on the known Flory-Fox relation [38], The second method represents measurements of the fraction [r ] in good thermodynamic solvents and extrapolation of experimental data in accordance with the known techniques [39 - 41], Because in the cur-rent work [36] all measurements were performed in good thermodynamic solvent, unperturbed di-mensions of macromolecules, , were determined by graphical extrapolation in accordance with the Shtockmayer-Fixman, suggested by the authors for flexible macromolecules, in [t ] M1/2-M12 coordinates (Figure 6). 

The coefficients are caUed the Onsager s phenomenological red procity coefficients. Type (2.4) relations are applicable, for example, to concurrent processes of matter diffusion and heat transfer, or electric cur rent and ion diffusion, as weU as to the case of several concurrent chemical reaction in the system (see Section 2.3.4). 

There are two flow regimes corresponding to sonic (or choked) flow for liigher pressure drops and subsonic flow for lower pressure drops. The transition between the two flow regimes occurs at tlie dimensionless critical pressure ratio, rent, which is related to tlie gas heat capacity ratio y via... 

With this, the dealer has the guarantee that he is selling products that fulfill existing standards and for the farmer it is important to use machines that fiilfill existing standards too. It is well known that despite the EU Directive and national regulations, dealers are, in some cases, selling or renting machines that are not up to standard. In addition, the test report offers useful information for the best choice of machines in relation to his real needs.
