Economic Value Added
Last modified by cjlynch on Jul 24, 2020, 6:28:07 PM

In corporate finance, Economic Value Added (EVA) is an estimate of a firm's economic profit, or the value created in excess of the required return of the company's shareholders. Quite simply, EVA is the net profit less the opportunity cost of the firm's capital. The idea is that value is created when the return on the firm's economic capital employed exceeds the cost of that capital. This amount can be determined by making adjustments to GAAP accounting. There are potentially over 160 adjustments but in practice only several key ones are made, depending on the company and its industry. EVA is a service mark of Stern Value Management.

Fisher Equation
Last modified by cjlynch on Jul 24, 2020, 6:28:07 PM

The Fisher equation in financial mathematics and economics estimates the relationship between nominal and real interest rates inflation. It is named after Irving Fisher, who was famous for his works on the theory of interest. In finance, the Fisher equation is primarily used in YTM calculations of bonds or IRR calculations of investments. In economics, this equation is used to predict nominal and real interest rate behavior.

The Gordon Growth Model calculator computes the present value of a stock based on the dividend per share in year one (D1), the required growth rate (k), and the growth rates in dividends (g).

Income Elasticity of Demand
Last modified by cjlynch on Jul 24, 2020, 6:28:07 PM

In economics, income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded for a good or service to a change in the income of the people demanding the good, ceteris paribus. It is calculated as the ratio of the percentage change in quantity demanded to the percentage change in income. For example, if in response to a 10% increase in income, the quantity demanded for a good increased by 20%, the income elasticity of demand would be 20%/10% = 2.

The Landers Max Weight calculator computes the approximate one-rep maximum weight one can lift using the Lander's formula, weight lifted and number of repetitions. 

Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC)
Last modified by cjlynch on Jul 24, 2020, 6:28:07 PM

In economics, the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is a metric that quantifies induced consumption, the concept that the increase in personal consumer spending (consumption) occurs with an increase in disposable income (income after taxes and transfers). The proportion of disposable income which individuals spend on consumption is known as propensity to consume. MPC is the proportion of additional income that an individual consumes. For example, if a household earns one extra dollar of disposable income, and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.65, then of that dollar, the household will spend 65 cents and save 35 cents. Obviously, the household cannot spend more than the extra dollar (without borrowing).
