Abstract
The following paper critically analyzes the Limit Pricing Model, which uses limit pricing which is when companies form collusion or a cartel and try to maintain price levels which may or may not not maximize their profits or stop the entry of new firms in the market. One of the major limitations of the model discussed in this paper is that the model assumes collusion. Another limitation examined is that the model assumes the products to be homogeneous. The writer concludes, after discussing eight limitations of the model, that it is completely inappropriate.
From the Paper
"In an oligopoly there are a few entrepreneurs who are in tight competition with each other and due to this the market price is sticky or we can say downward rigid. Oligopolists do not usually decrease price (?sticky downward prices?), and tend to change prices together. Rivals match each others price decrease which leads to a ?price- war? and obviously they do end up losing in it and form a cartel. Cartels are an example of a collusive industry. Collusion occurs when firms in an industry agree to fix prices, divide the market among themselves, or otherwise restrict competition in some way."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the Capital Asset Pricing Model, describing some of its numerous benefits. With the CAPM, traders can avoid much of the risk they incur through diversification. Therefore, only unavoidable risk should be compensated. Nevertheless, even after a trader diversifies his portfolio, some risk remains. Because some risk is associated with the market as a whole, this risk cannot be neutralized through diversification, and CAPM explains that.

Abstract
This paper tells us that the asset pricing model evaluates a stock's rate of return based on a specific formula. The formula, rate of return = risk free interest rate + Beta x 8.7, is then explained by the paper.
From the Paper
"1.A project cost $100,000 and offers you a beta-of-two expected return of $150,000 in one year; risk premium = 8.5%; the "Wall Street Journal" reports that the riskless rate is 5.0%; the appropriate discount factor is thus 22%; 150,000/(1.22) = $123,000 (approximately) - thus the project has a net present value of $23,000."

Abstract
This paper presents an evaluation and summary of the processes used by Merrill Lynch in the late 199's in designing, implementing, and integrating a new series of business objectives and products in its sales mix. The paper explains that, at the time, Merrill Lynch was an organization that was in the precarious position of offering products and a business philosophy that were still relatively successful and not actually broken. Yet, as technology and various legal and regulatory aspects of the industry changed, the future of the company required drastic new approaches so as not to fall victim of the shifting business climate and culture. To reduce risk, Merrill Lynch implemented "Pricing Analysis Modeling" and detailed data analysis as its tools of choice to assist senior management in their decision making and in product and services roll-outs. This paper, therefore, is based on a case study focused on the integration of the new business paradigm in the presence of new business requirements.
From the Paper
"Merrill Lynch cannot haphazardly create new products or services without understanding the business impact of those new products or services. Merrill Lynch as an organization has historically followed very precise and logical steps prior to implementation of any new product or service. Senior management has historically been required to always develop business goals, identify the current or existing business process, identify flaws if any in that process, create new business processes to address these identified flaws, recreate or simulate the new process.
Only after this extensive series of steps can Merrill Lynches' senior management team develop both the business and technological requirements and specifications to implement any new process, product or service. Business Modeling has become an essential step in any new product's implementation because of the need to simulate how the new process will affect the organization in regard to customers, partners, internal revenue streams and the employees."

The concept of the statute of limitations is deceptively simple. In the popular mind, the term refers to the amount of time during which a plaintiff may pursue a cause of civil action in court or, in criminal law, the amount of time that must elapse before a defendant is legally excused from the criminal liability associated with a crime. It is of course a truism of television court...."

The Role and Limitations of Consumerism, 2006.
A study on consumerism that evaluates the problems of mass markets and the global problem of consumer exploitation.

Abstract
In a discussion on the role and limitations of consumerism, the author of this paper argues that we need to be smart (and strong) enough to know when to say no, while teaching the same to our children and more impressionable members of society. Only by assessing the root of the urge to consume can we free ourselves, thereby worrying less about surface matters. By advocating education and rational analysis of the advertised products now before us, perhaps a less greedy and more humane society will emerge.
From the Paper
"To say advertising is everywhere is to say something all consumers can agree on. Sports events, movies, even the God-given right of ad-free cable television has been trampled over. So if you cannot escape spots pushing shakes that will make you slimmer and sugar-based cereals that will make your kids fatter, the appropriate (and most realistic) role of the consumer is being true to one's self by supporting companies for human and environmental standards as much as quality control."

Double Jeopardy and Legislative Limitations, 2002.

Abstract
The legal concept of ?Double Jeopardy? is a rather simple one to define and to understand; but .application of the Double Jeopardy standard is anything but easy or simple. The paper describes Double Jeopardy as a limitation in court proceedings that the same person cannot be tried for the same crime twice, regardless of the verdict or outcome of the first trial. But, as with all legal procedures and rules of order, there are exceptions to the rule. The paper shows that in cases where new evidence is found that can demonstrate a person?s innocence, a trial is considered warranted because the outcome could not adversely affect the person already convicted. If, however, the new evidence could prove an already determined innocent person guilty, then Double Jeopardy rules start being applicable. The paper concludes that Double Jeopardy actively prevents multiple prosecutions and overlapping punishments for the same crime.
From the Paper
"The key issue in our modern application of Double Jeopardy is whether or not it was intended to just limit the actions of the executive and judicial branches, or whether it was meant to include actions of the legislative branch. The Court's seeming unwillingness to decide if the Clause protects against legislative incursions upon Double Jeopardy values accounts for most of the confusion in Double Jeopardy jurisprudence. By this, it is meant that the Double Jeopardy Clause either does or does not limit Legislative ability to create new and additional punishments for the same crime. For example, does Double Jeopardy prevent Congress from making a law that allows for a person to be given additional punishments for every person secondarily affected by a murder (while current practice is to punish the crime itself, this hypothetical law would allow for the same crime?s punishment to be based upon the number of people in the family and community directly affected by the crime and to add additional years of punishment)."

Descartes and the Limitations of the Senses, 2002.
Critical analysis of Descartes' "Meditations on First Philosophy" and its strict adherence to the concept of Cartesian dualism.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
Rene Descartes, in his Meditations on First Philosophy, addresses a wide variety of questions, from nature of the self and perception, to the demonstration of the existence of the world and of God. However, his argument in these Meditations begins at a point of radical scepticism concerning the existence of the universe and the nature of reality. Central to this argument is the idea of Cartesian dualism, or the separation of rational intellect from the body and the senses. In this context, this paper will argue, through a examination of various facets of Descartes' argument, that in the final analysis Meditations on First Philosophy retains a measure of this scepticism in its refusal to accept the position that knowledge may be acquired by the senses. 4 pgs. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Judicial Powers and Limitations, 2003.
A discussion regarding Article III and Amendment XI of the United States Constitution.

Abstract
This paper takes an in-depth look at Article III and Amendment XI of the United States Constitution. The paper reviews the history of this article and the events and issues leading to Amendment XI. According to the paper, Article III of the Constitution of the United States laid the foundation of the American judicial system. Article III is defined by this paper as a simple description of the judicial branch of the United States Government.
From the Paper
"Nevertheless, much of Article III remains vague, as does the precise meaning of the Eleventh Amendment. While making clear the existence of the Supreme Court, and Congress's control over inferior federal courts, the United States Constitution provides no guidance whatsoever on the arrangement of these lesser courts. By the same token, Amendment XI does not clarify which cases of "law and equity" remain within the jurisdiction of the states and their courts. The modern system of federal district courts and courts of appeals represents Congress' interpretation of Article III's "inferior courts." Still, the scope of these courts is debated even today. One need only look to the recent proposals by certain members of Congress to eliminate the Ninth Federal Circuit Court of Appeals to find a contemporary example of an enduring controversy. The present-day concern over whether federal judges exercise too much power and influence over national law and policy - the ability of federal judges to "legislate from the bench" - is a matter hotly debated by many elements in today's Congress, and a significant part of the nation's overall political landscape. The Supreme Court's decision in Bush v. Gore (2001) - the decision that effectively awarded the presidency to George W. Bush - is but one of many cases that, opens up questions in regard to the decision's wider application. "

Hobbes:" The Limitations of Absolute Sovereignty", 2002.
A discussion of collective sovereignty versus individual freedom.

Abstract
This paper analyzes Hobbes' philosophy of collective sovereignty versus individual freedom: Should you follow your own own beliefs and risk harming the collective or not? It uses a modern-day example of two workers who are asked to perform a non-ethical task that could jeopardize the company they work for.
From the Paper
"The first moral dilemma occurs in the collision of Ted and Margaret?s duty to their company and their duty to their own honor. While?and Hobbes agrees?it is the chief duty of ?subjects? to obey without question the authority of their sovereign (in this case, the company) in order to maintain the peace and order of the collective, there are certain limitations. Indeed, this ?law? of obligation should more correctly read, subjects must obey the authority of the sovereign provided that it does not require them to sacrifice their lives or their honor for an end that does not utterly support the collective"
