Return to Nature: Biodiversity Loss and Global Stock Returns

We examine whether biodiversity risk is priced in global equity markets using two new firm-level biodiversity risk measures: an environmental cost-based measure grounded in the IPBES drivers of biodiversity loss and a geospatial measure that links firms' asset locations to key biodiversity areas.

Tax-Loss Carry Forwards and Returns

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
Tax loss carry forward (TLCF), the accumulated corporate losses that can be applied to future or past taxable income, form an important asset in the corporate portfolio. In our sample (1964 - 2014) TCLF was on average equal to 17% of pretax income with considerable cross sectional variation. We show that a firm’s TLCF is a complex contingent claim that

Impedance and return loss performance

Electrical Engineering, 1958
THE DESIGN of intercity trunks under conditions of nation-wide dialing and the greater number of permissible links between terminal offices has required a reappraisal of transmission objectives, including terminal return losses.

High-Definition Cabling and Return Loss

SMPTE Journal, 2001
Return loss is signal attenuation caused by impedance variations in the structure of a cable or associated connection parts. These variations cause the signal to reflect (return) back to the source. At lower frequencies, return loss is a minor effect; at frequencies above 50 MHz, it can have a significant effect; and at frequencies used for high ...

Return loss in twisted pair cables

Proceedings. 9th IEEE Workshop on Signal Propagation on Interconnects, 2005., 2005
Modeling of twisted pair cable (TPC) and simulating return loss (RL) is discussed and verified experimentally. A graphical user interface allows entering cable design data including materials, plating, stranding, twisting, and wire naming. A realistic 3D model of a twisted pair cable is calculated.

Optical receiver design for high optical return loss

Applied Optics, 1992
A new fiber pigtailed optical receiver design using a single gradient-index rod lens with a beveled exit face achieved a broadband optical return loss of > 65 dB, which was limited by the diffuse reflection from the photodetector front surface. By contrast the optical return loss for a receiver with an unbeveled lens exit face and an on-axis optical ...

Return on Assets Loss from Situational and Contingency Misfits

Management Science, 2002
We develop a rule-based contingency misfit model and related hypotheses to test empirically the Burton and Obel (1998) multi contingency model for strategic organizational design. The model is a set of “if-then” misfit rules, in which misfits lead to a loss in performance; they are complements to the strategy and organizational contingency theory fit ...

Design of a flexible MIMO antenna with return loss compensation

2015 7th International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control Systems and Workshops (ICUMT), 2015
This article suggests a method for the return loss compensation for flexible antennas. MIMO-antenna with nine patches and its model were designed with operating frequency of 5.33 GHz. The antenna was measured and simulated in different states, and for compensating the return loss increase during bent state of antenna the all-capacitance matching ...

Equity Returns with a Stop-Loss

Wilmott
The author derives an explicit analytical formula for the expected return of an equity with a stop-loss. The author shows that under certain conditions on the drift, there can be an optimal level for a stop-loss, and that the expected return can exceed that of the buy-and-hold strategy.
