About this product: WHAT IS LATENT DEMAND AND THE P.I.E.?
The concept of latent demand is rather subtle. The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant, not observable, or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price, quality, and distribution, among other factors. Latent demand, therefore, is commonly defined by economists as the industry earnings of a market when that market becomes accessible and attractive to serve by competing firms. It is a measure, therefore, of potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) or total revenues (not profit) if a market is served in an efficient manner. It is typically expressed as the total revenues potentially extracted by firms. The “market” is defined at a given level in the value chain. There can be latent demand at the retail level, at the wholesale level, the manufacturing level, and the raw materials level (the P.I.E. of higher levels of the value chain being always smaller than the P.I.E. of levels at lower levels of the same value chain, assuming all levels maintain minimum profitability).
The latent demand for mud-type oil well and oil field pumps and slush pumps is not actual or historic sales. Nor is latent demand future sales. In fact, latent demand can be lower either lower or higher than actual sales if a market is inefficient (i.e., not representative of relatively competitive levels). Inefficiencies arise from a number of factors, including the lack of international openness, cultural barriers to consumption, regulations, and cartel-like behavior on the part of firms. In general, however, latent demand is typically larger than actual sales in a country market.
For reasons discussed later, this report does not consider the notion of “unit quantities”, only total latent revenues (i.e., a calculation of price times quantity is never made, though one is implied). The units used in thi

From the supplier: Many industrialized countries are making contributions to the World Bank to finance environmental fact-finding missions. These missions assess the environmental impact of planned World Bank-funded development projects such as hydroelectric dams and irrigation systems. Because these missions are funded by the World Bank, they often give false recommendations. Such recommendations are used to attract and continue development projects in Third World countries.

About this product: This econometric study covers the world outlook for mud-type oil well and oil field pumps and slush pumps across more than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-à-vis others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved. This study does not report actual sales data (which are simply unavailable, in a comparable or consistent manner in virtually all of the 230 countries of the world). This study gives, however, my estimates for the worldwide latent demand, or the P.I.E., for mud-type oil well and oil field pumps and slush pumps. It also shows how the P.I.E. is divided across the world's regional and national markets. For each country, I also show my estimates of how the P.I.E. grows over time (positive or negative growth). In order to make these estimates, a multi-stage methodology was employed that is often taught in courses on international strategic planning at graduate schools of business.
About this product: This 80-page issue of SLUSH PILE documents the many protests and activist actions the Underground Literary Alliance (ULA) has launched against the corruption and boredom of the mainstream literary scene in recent years.
We put the lie to those who say an exciting but tiny lit group can't have an effect, that the media monopoly is too big. We also show up the naysayers who think you have to work from the inside, or who just complain without acting, or who do their thing for their own tiny niche audience.
Each ULA action has hit home, having the cumulative effect of scaring the weegees out of the folks hiding in the tall buildings of Gotham. They won't be giving NEA grants to millionaires again anytime soon!
The National Book Award, the Firecracker Award, Rick Moody, Jon Franzen, Dave Eggers and many more have found the ULA boldly challenging them.
The punchline is that the System and the Scene need to open up to street lit, folk writers, zeensters. Indy lit is ready to break thru to the big-time thanks to such attention-getting activism! This summer's 8-book launch from the ULA PRESS might just get the ball rolling.
