Intellectual property accounts for a growing share of firms' assets. It is more mobile than other forms capital, and could be used by firms to shift income offshore reduce their corporate tax liability. We consider how influential taxes are in determining where choose legally own intellectual property. estimate mixed (or random coefficients) logit model that incorporates important observed unobserved heterogeneity location choices. obtain estimates the full set specific elasticities conduct...
In 2014, 12 European countries are operating Intellectual Property (IP) Box regimes that provide substantially reduced rates of corporate tax for income derived from important forms intellectual property. We describe the key features policies and incorporate them into forward-looking measures cost capital effective average rate. show treatment expenses relating to IP is particularly in determining burden. A finding allow be deducted at ordinary rate, as opposed lower may result negative can...
The gut microbiota enhances systemic immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses to vaccines, but it is unknown whether this effect involves IgA, which coats intestinal microbes. That IgA may amplify postimmune IgG production suggested by the impaired response pneumococcal vaccines in some IgA-deficient patients. Here, we found that antipneumococcal not total was mice with deficiency. positive of on started very early life and could implicate bacteria, as these were attenuated germ-free recolonized...
The objective of this study was to determine whether dietary quillaja saponin and curcumin (extract turmeric) can modify piglet immune status performance immediately after weaning. Piglets (n = 192) were weaned at 29 ± 0.1 d allocated treatment (six replicates eight pig per treatment) accounting for weight, litter, gender, using a 2 × factorial arrangement. Factors diets with or without (as-fed basis) (750 mg/kg during wk 1, 300 3) (200 mg/kg). Diets fed ad libitum 20 Feed intake measured...
Objective To compare open cholecystectomy (OC) with laparoscopic (LC) in terms of clinical aspects and a limited review costs. Setting The Austin Hospital, Melbourne, university teaching hospital. Design Prospective LC patients were compared retrospective group OC whose surgery had been performed by the same surgeons. Methods Consecutive undergoing interviewed, their medical records analysed cost hospitalisation was assessed. Similar data, collected previously from OC, used for comparison....

A 2 × factorial experiment was conducted to determine the effects of rearing environment (indoor (In) v. outdoor (Out)) and dietary zinc oxide (ZnO) supplementation (0 (-Zn) 3100 (+Zn) mg/kg feed) on response weaned pigs a challenge infection with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). Pigs from two environments were onto trial diets at 4 weeks age, moved into conventional accommodation infected 3 days later 109 CFU ETEC per os. Faecal shedding determined before after challenge. After 7...
The level of private sector labour productivity has been particularly weak since the start crisis. In this paper we explore whether impairment to capital reallocation contributing weakness. recent increase in dispersion output, prices and rates return across firms sectors is stark, suggests that resources have had incentives move. Efficient allocation requires moves where are relatively high. And change levels low, suggesting there an unusually slow process 2008 compared previous UK...
Abstract The share of pre-tax income flowing to the top UK distribution increased continually and substantially in three decades leading up financial crisis, but has changed little since 2013. Using microdata sampled from tax records, we describe nature incomes how they are taxed. We show that wage is dominant source income, even for highest-income 0.1% adults. However, ‘active’ business income—derived self-employment or closely-held incorporated businesses—is considerably more important 1%...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects phytase and xylanase their interaction on laying hen performance, egg quality, phosphorus (P) digestibility, phytate breakdown, volatile fatty acid (VFA) production peptide YY concentration. 2. Two hundred forty hens were allocated cages at 22 weeks age based a 3 × 2 arrangement with (0, 300 or 1500 FTU/kg) (0 12 000 BXU/kg) as factors. 3.

Abstract This paper asks when a wealth tax would, in principle, be desirable part of the system, setting aside practicalities and politics that would crucial reality. The case for one‐off is simple. If it were unexpected credibly – major challenge practice this an efficient way to raise revenue could used address existing inequality. Whether such hinges on whether considered fair, about which reasonable people will differ. Making annual tax, affect future accumulation as well wealth, less...
Abstract Carbon taxes or similar pricing instruments could play a crucial role in helping countries decarbonise their economies. No country has single carbon price that applies to all greenhouse gas emissions. The UK is typical having adopted complex patchwork of policies raise the cost different polluting activities degrees, resulting implied vary greatly across sources We document and quantify these inconsistencies case UK, assess for greater uniformity after accounting considerations...
Abstract Increasing sow food intake in late gestation prevents loss of fatness prior to farrowing. However, this may result reduced and greater overall fat during lactation has also been associated with increased incidence agalactia. In experiment 78 Camborough sows (parities 1 3) were given at one two levels: either 1·15 × maintenance energy (normal-N sows, 2·3 (s.e. 0·03) kg/day) or 2·00 (high-H 3·9 0·04) from day 100 until Lactation intake, changes live weight backfat thickness piglet...
Executive summary Business owners have been the fastest-growing part of UK labour force since at least 2000. Between 2000–01 and 2015–16, number employees grew by 15%, while self-employment (including those operating as a sole trader or partner in partnership) 25% directors companies with most two more than doubled. The new businesses created between 2007–08 2015–16 was higher any other OECD country. This is an important market trend often hailed success because small...
We studied the effects of feed intake and fatness on metabolic clearance rate (MCR) half-life progesterone in 40 ovariectomized gilts (10 × 4 littermates). One gilt from each litter was randomly allocated to four treatments a randomized block design. Gilts were reared be either lean (Ln), 113 kg BW 10 mm backfat measured 65 midline at level last rib (P2), or fat (F), 124 20 P2 backfat. They fitted with bilateral jugular catheters. Fat Ln then fed low (1.15 maintenance energy, L), high (2.30...
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability plant extracts Yucca shidigera, Quillaja saponaria and a combination (a blend capsicum, carvacrol cinnamaldehyde) stimulate piglet sow performance when used as supplements in diets lactating sows. These were selected for their potential benefits health, appetite digestion. Eighty hybrid sows housed conventional indoor farrowing crates from day 107 gestation until weaning. Sows allocated according parity, live weight, fatness...
In 2010 China was the world’s fourth largest filer of patent applications. This followed a decade unprecedented increases in investment skills and Research Development. If current trends continue could rank first very near future. We provide evidence that growth Chinese patenting activity has been accompanied by inventors creating technologies are to science base. Part success attract foreign multinationals. is also true for number other Emerging Economies. Europe’s multinational firms...
