  • Taxation
  • Production (Economics)
CONT

A tax on production is a tax incurred as a result of engaging in production and is payable irrespective of the profitability of the entreprise or the number of units of any good or service produced; they include payroll taxes but no social security taxes and business and professional licences but only if unrequited.

CONT

In Canada... a tax paid by producers is not collected for exported goods; furthermore, the tax is levied as an excise tax on imports as well as on domestic production. Thus, the production tax--or, in Canada, the [manufacturers’] sales tax--would almost certainly have the same effect on the pattern and volume of trade as a retail sales tax.

CONT

... in theoretical literature, a production tax means a tax on all production, whether sold domestically or in foreign markets. But this is seldom, if ever, the case in practice.

Subject field(s)
  • Electrochemistry
DEF

An experimentally observable effect (on rates of reaction, etc.) of the transmission of charge through a chain of atoms by electrostatic induction.

OBS

Although the term has been taken by some authors to include the field effect, there is a theoretical distinction between these two effects as models for the coulombic interaction between a given site within a molecular entity and a remote pole or dipole within the same entity, and various methods of experimental distinction have been discussed. Some effects called inductive in the older literature are now considered to be field effects.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Électrochimie
DEF

Effet de la transmission de charges, par induction électrostatique le long d'une chaîne d'atomes, sur une grandeur expérimentale (vitesse de réaction, etc.).

OBS

Bien que certains auteurs considèrent que cette expression englobe l'effet de champ, il existe une différence théorique entre les deux effets: ce sont des modèles différents d'interactions électrostatiques entre un site donné d'une entité moléculaire et une charge (ou un dipôle) séparée du site au sein de la même entité. De plus différentes méthodes ont été proposées pour les distinguer expérimentalement. Certains effets, appelés «inductifs» dans la littérature plus ancienne,sont maintenant considérés comme des effets de champ.

CONT

The substantial genetic correlation of size and timing of return that we observe ... could have consequences for harvest management. Alexandersdottir (1987) reviewed evidence that selection with respect to timing has had detrimental effects on pink salmon productivity in some fisheries. Our data suggest that selection against later returning fish could have the correlated effect of reducing the individual size of fish in the population.

CONT

A central objective of population ecology is to understand how populations are spatially structured. An informative way of looking at this is to describe how species abundance varies temporally and spatially and then to identify the mechanisms that can cause synchrony.... Two principal mechanisms have been identified as the possible cause of spatial synchrony. First, dispersal between spatially structured populations... and second, the correlated effect of density independent factors that synchronise populations with the same density dependent structure...

In Ontario, the ["Land Titles] Act"specifically provides that a transfer to a volunteer is subject to the unregistered interests that the donor was subject to but upon registered dealings by the transferee, the transfer is to have the same effect as if made for valuable consideration. The other jurisdictions do not have similar provisions and hence it would appear that in those jurisdictions a voluntary transferee receives the same protection from the legislation as a transferee for valuable consideration.(Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 1616).

While there is difference of opinion as to what constitutes privity of estate in relationships outside of that of landlord and tenant, the weight of authority is to the effect that there is privity of estate when the fact of succession is found to have taken place between covenantor and covenantee, as in a grant of an estate in land made by one of the parties to the other. The modern rule seems to be that either mutuality or succession of interrelationship to the same rights of property creates that privity of estate necessary to enable a covenant to run with the land.(Cartwright, 1972, p. 729).

A joint and several covenant is now usually made by the words "jointly and severally" but it will arise from any other words which have the same effect, such as we and each of us covenant; or A and B covenant for themselves and each of them.(12 Hals., 4th ed., p. 1555)

Green procurement is the procurement of products and services that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose.

OBS

green purchasing; environmentally preferable purchasing: The term "purchasing" is actually a part of the procurement process. Therefore, it is not always interchangeable with the term "procurement" even though it is often used in this sense.

L'approvisionnement écologique consiste à opter pour des produits et services ayant un impact moindre sur la santé et sur l'environnement, par rapport à d'autres produits et services semblables.

achat écologique : Le terme «achat» ne représente en fait qu'une partie du processus d'approvisionnement. Il n'est donc pas toujours interchangeable avec le terme «approvisionnement», bien qu'il soit souvent utilisé dans ce sens.

OBS

achat écologique : Bien que plusieurs auteurs utilisent le terme «achats» comme synonyme d'«approvisionnement», il serait plus juste d'utiliser le terme «achat» qui désigne l'action d'acheter. «Achats» désigne plutôt un ensemble de biens ou de services.

If [we] look at the phenomenon of labour supply and the people already working in the labour force, it is true that the taxes levied on them do not have much effect on their incentive to work. We are not able to explain much of their behaviour or the economic phenomena as a result of changes in incentives. However, incentives still do matter for various sub-segments of the labour force.

One of the recommendations of the panel that has attracted the attention of attorneys is that fingerprinting tests showing a phenomenon called band shifting be declared "inconclusive" until laboratories have performed adequate studies on the effect. Band shifting can make two forensic samples from different biological sources appear the same; private companies that perform DNA fingerprinting and the Federal Bureau of investigation have already made attempts to correct for it. But the McKusick panel was not convinced that such attempts protect those accused : a suspect could be wrongly convicted if the "correction" was itself in error.

Close-out clauses do not have the same effect as a netting agreement and are not recognized for purposes of calculating the risk-based ratio at this time. Close-out as defined in this context refers to a bilateral contract that provides that, if one of the counterparties is wound up, the outstanding obligations between the two are accelerated and netted to determine the counterparty's net exposure.

In most cases, the dopamine-releasing cells make symmetric contact with the spines-that is, the cell projections on either side of the synaptic cleft show roughly the same density. Such symmetric contacts are thought to have an inhibitory effect.

Généralement les cellules qui libèrent la dopamine forment des synapses symétriques avec les épines dendritiques : de part et d'autre de l'espace synaptique, les projections cellulaires ont une densité analogue. On pense que ces synapses ont un effet inhibiteur.

During delignification, there is also a corresponding reduction in pulp viscosity.... If pulp viscosity is allowed to fall below a critical level, the pulp strength drops dramatically. Maintenance of pulp viscosity is the principal reason that the kraft cook must be terminated at a point where a substantial level of residual lignin remains with the fibers. A derivation termed the G-factor(exactly analogous to the H-factor) can be applied for viscosity reduction, i. e., combinations of time and temperature that give the same G-factor can be expected to produce pulp with the same viscosity. Since the G-factor increases more rapidly with temperature than the H-factor, it follows that higher cooking temperatures have a proportionally greater effect on viscosity reduction.

Optoacoustic detector. Light which is absorbed by a molecule is generally reradiated from the molecule in the form of heat. If a laser, at an absorbing wavelength of a gas of interest, is passed through a closed cell, the temperature of the entire gas in the cell will rise and thus the pressure of the gas in the cell will rise. If the laser is turned on and off at a frequency of 100-20000 Hz, the resulting pressure rises and drops can be picked up as a signal by sensitive microphones. This somewhat odd combination of optics and acoustics turns out to have several advantages over systems which measure the absorption directly. The absorption will be quite small and thus the change in intensity of the laser beam is nearly impossible to detect. Because pressure in the cell rises more quickly for small length cells, this effect exactly cancels out gains in overall absorption by making the cell longer. Thus, a small optoacoustic cell will accomplish the same as a larger cell making its size a great asset.... The device is being tested as a sniffer for bomb vapours and for ambient air analyses.

"Ergogenic drugs" are often included when one refers to "ergogenic aids" though "ergogenic aids" should, more precisely, designate procedures such as electric stimulation of muscles and transfusion of a concentration of red blood cells, that are not drugs as such but that have the same ergogenic effect.

Les risques associés à l'utilisation de certains aides ergogéniques (drogues). Même si les études scientifiques suggèrent que plusieurs substances (1. amphétamines; 2. anabolisants (y compris la testostérone); 3. narcotiques analgésiques (ex. : morphine, héroïne); 4. corticoïdes (ex. : cortisone par voie orale) ou procédés (5. transfusions sanguines; 6. stimulation des muscles au moyen d'appareils électriques) n'augmentent que de peu ou pas du tout la performance, ceux-ci [...] peuvent engendrer des effets secondaires, particulièrement lorsqu'ils sont consommés à fortes doses, et sur de longues périodes de temps.

OBS

On désigne les substances numérotées de 1 à 4 dans le contexte ci-dessus comme des «drogues ergogéniques» et les procédés 5 et 6 comme des «aides ergogéniques». Cependant, le terme «aides ergogéniques» englobe, la plupart du temps, les drogues et les procédés ergogéniques.
