As expected, the rate of reported convictions, which varied significantly, was lower than the rate of reported investigations or prosecutions.

Given the current expected inflation rate of 2 , the real rate on ten year bonds is still less than 1 . Past experience implies that the real rate will rise to at least 2 , taking the total nominal interest rate to more than 4 , even if expected inflation remains at just 2 .

The answer depends on two key variables the discount rate and future earnings growth. A lower discount rate and or a higher rate of expected earnings growth would justify higher equity valuations.

From the point of market performance, over the past year, the two way floating characteristics of RMB exchange rate is outstanding. The elasticity of exchange is expected to be strengthened and the exchange rate is expected to be generally stable.

At the current rate, it is expected that all trials will be completed by 20 May 2005.

Several States reported on the rate of prosecutions during the past year, which, as expected, was lower than the number of investigations.

Ecological losses are calculated as the difference between the actual catches and the expected catches, using a three per cent annual discount rate.

In 2006, France s unemployment rate was 9.4 , a full percentage point higher than Germany s. By 2008, the French rate can be expected to decline only to 8.2 , while German unemployment is anticipated to fall to 6.3 .

First, the divergence of monetary policies between the US and other major economies is already universally understood and expected. Thus, the interest rate differential, like the US rate hike itself, should already be priced into currency values.

For increased effectiveness and efficiency, UNOPS will use net present value or internal rate of return to determine the expected value of the investment.

Meanwhile, the U.S. unemployment rate remained at 4.1 in December, the lowest since 2000, and companies are expected to increase wages in the coming months.

Another problem with using the five year, five year forward rate of expected inflation to gauge QE s effectiveness is that the rate is correlated with oil prices. Indeed, when oil prices fell last year, so did inflation expectations (measured however imperfectly).

Stephen Brown, the senior Canadian economist at Capital Economics, said that the country's third quarter GDP was expected to grow at an annualized rate of around 2 .

This partly reflects borrowing cost differentials. If the local interest rate is 17 per year and the dollar interest rate is 2 , it still makes sense to borrow in dollars as long as the domestic currency is expected to depreciate 15 or less.

Although it is difficult to anticipate how high long term interest rates will eventually rise, the large budget deficit and the rising level of the national debt suggest that the real rate will be higher than 2 . A higher rate of expected inflation would also cause the total nominal rate to be greater than 5 .

In general, expenditure aimed at alleviating poverty had increased, with welfare payments rising by three times the expected rate of inflation and pension and child benefits also rising substantially.

Costa Rica succeeded in turning its forests from being a source of emissions to being a sink of carbon in 1995 the rate of deforestation has decreased and the rate of forest regeneration has increased since 1990 and is expected to continue to grow up to 2015.

We are concerned about the fact that, at the current rate of progress, the Goals are expected to be realized only in 2147, rather than the initial target year of 2015.

Expenditure against allotments for the extrabudgetary resources, excluding project funding, was at 93 per cent of the approved allotment and was within the expected target rate at this time of the year.

The Government and the United Nations country team have established a joint programme on women's integrated functional literacy, under which measurable progress in the literacy rate of women is expected by 2008.

A normal US economy has a short term nominal interest rate of 4 . Since the ten year US Treasury bond rate tends to be one percentage point above the average of expected future short term interest rates over the next decade, even the expectation of five years of deep depression and near zero short term interest rates should not push the 10 Year Treasury rate below 3 .

But it signalled rate hikes will be needed over the next few years to rein in Brexit fuelled inflation and said borrowing costs may need to rise by more than expected in financial markets.

But, since then, the IMF has steadily pared its economic projections. Indeed, this year s expected GDP growth rate of 3.3 which was revised downward in the most recent WEO will probably not be met.

An even faster rate of increase is expected in the next 50 years, raising the number of persons in this age group to over 1.2 billion by 2050, nearly one quarter of the population.

This argument is correct in the sense that it is the current account surplus or deficit of a monetary union as a whole that can be expected to have exchange rate implications. And, unlike China, Germany no longer has a national exchange rate that can adjust in response to its current account surplus.

PARIS For most governments, the rate of economic growth that can reasonably be expected in the coming years is a key question. And, at least for the advanced economies, it has become a particularly puzzling one.

Our economy, which had been growing at an average of 7 per cent per annum during the past two decades, is now expected to register a 3 to 4 per cent negative growth rate this year.

The literacy rate was expected to increase to 63 per cent. Another objective of the plan was free primary education for all, free textbooks to girl students and scholarships for lower caste (dalit) and disadvantaged children.

Moreover, if conditions in the eurozone continue to deteriorate, Asia could be more severely affected. Already, spillover effects from trade and financial transmission channels are beginning to take their toll China s GDP growth rate in the second quarter of 2012 averaged 7.6 , reflecting a significant slowdown, and India s growth rate is expected to decline to roughly 6 this year.

But we were expected to have doubts we're expected to have fears.

Add a full stop at the end of expected accomplishment (c) and add the text of expected accomplishment (g) to expected accomplishment (c).

The gross domestic product (GDP) of Canada grew by 0.2 in July compared with the previous month, with a higher than expected growing rate, raising market expectations that the Bank of Canada will raise interest rates next month.

By reducing transaction costs and removing exchange rate uncertainty, the single European currency was expected to lead to fully integrated product and financial markets. This, in turn, would bring greater gains from trade, stronger competition, larger cross border capital flows, lower borrowing costs, and more opportunities for sharing risk, all of which were expected ultimately to boost investment and productivity.

And most mortgage holders probably expected to refinance their mortgages before their rising interest rate trebled or quadrupled monthly repayments. Another hoped for benefit was that capital gains could be converted into home equity loans, boosting homeowners living standards.

In cases where imported goods, to which contractual tariff rate or preferential tariff rate is applicable are subject to temporary rate, the lower tariff rate shall apply.

ECB President Jean Claude Trichet indicated at his July press conference that the bank plans to raise interest rates by 25 basis points on August 3, not August 31, as expected. This implies an interval of two months between interest rate moves instead of the three month interval that has become standard ECB practice in the current interest rate cycle.

Indeed, the modest economic recovery that should benefit many countries in 2013 seems to be eluding Italy. According to the IMF, the economy will remain in recession next year, and, though the rate of contraction will be less severe than in 2012 ( 0.7 in 2013, compared to 2.3 this year), the unemployment rate is expected to rise further, from 10.6 to 11.1 .

Global investors are apparently willing to accept these extraordinarily low rates, even though they do not appear to compensate for expected inflation. Indeed, the rate on inflation adjusted US Treasury bills (so called TIPS ) is now negative up to 15 years.

Today s financial turmoil and economic downturn are highlighting the EMU s advantages in several important ways. First, the euro has eliminated the possibility of exchange rate turbulence and speculative currency attacks that more vulnerable economies could have expected in the current turmoil.

For example, the NASDAQ stock price index made a spectacular 14 jump upwards on the day (January 3, 2001) when America's Fed began its latest series of interest rate cuts. A jump in the market is what one might have expected.
