Our primary objective herein is not to determine how approximate calculations introduce errors into situations with accurate hypotheses, but instead to study how rigorous calculations transmit errors due to inaccurate parameters or hypotheses. Unlike quantities represented by entire numbers, the continuous quantities generated from physics, economics or engineering sciences, as represented by one or several real numbers, are compromised by errors.

Asset allocation investigates the optimal division of a portfolio among different asset classes. Standard theory involves the optimal mix of risky stocks, bonds, and cash together with various subdivisions of these asset classes. Underlying this is the insight that diversification allows for achieving a balance between risk and return: by using different types of investment, losses may be limited and returns are made less volatile without losing too much potential gain.

The top section of Table 7 shows estimates of four variants of equation (6) for the full sample.

The OSC requires public companies to file documents such as annual information forms, annual and quarterly financial statements, MD&As, management information circulars, material change reports and prospectuses. They contain information that helps investors assess the company’s management, products, services, finances, its future prospects and risks. Together, these documents are referred to as “disclosure documents”. The OSC has requirements for when and how information is disclosed by public companies.

Bank-dependent smaller firms, by contrast, have faced significantly greater problems obtaining credit, according to surveys and anecdotes. The Federal Reserve, together with other regulators, has been engaged in significant efforts to improve the credit environment for small businesses.
