The UK government has been criticised for guaranteeing the price that will be paid for any electricity the new Hinkley Point reactor produces.
This is the so-called strike price. The government has maintained all along that it will not provide any public subsidies to the nuclear industry.
How does the price work in practice? In essence, the government has guaranteed EDF a price of £92. 50 per megawatt hour (Mwh),
or £89. 50 if EDF develops another new reactor in Sizewell, Suffolk. This simply reflects the fact that EDF's costs will be lower per reactor
If the market price of electricity falls below this level, the government has said in effect it will make sure EDF receives the difference between the two prices.
The wholesale price of electricity at the moment is about £45/Mwh. If the wholesale price remains at this level
then EDF will receive an additional £47. 50/Mwh. In practice, this money will not come from taxpayers (that would count as a subsidy),
The strike price works the other way as well-EDF has to refund the difference if the price of electricity is above £92. 50/Mwh.
For example, if the wholesale price is £110/Mwh, then it has to refund £18. 50/Mwh.
Again, this money goes back to bill payers, not to the government. But why the need for any guaranteed price?
Nuclear reactors cost a lot of money, and EDF wants to build two of them. The final bill for just Hinkley is estimated at £24. 5bn.
For example, if the price of electricity falls, or becomes more volatile, the company could lose a lot of money.
Knowing it will receive a guaranteed price for the electricity generated at Hinkley provides some kind of certainty that the investment will be worthwhile-in other words, profitable.
Until we know the price of electricity on the open market when Hinkley Point C starts generating power,
If the electricity price is below the strike price, then bills will probably be higher than they would otherwise be.
Conversely, if it is above the strike price, then bills would be lower. It will also depend on the energy mix at the time.

which indicates that the market for internet ads keeps growing. But this makes 15 straight quarters of price declines for Google.
Due to this long series of small declines, the average price of Google ads (cost per click) has declined 70%*since Q3 2011!
While this is a miraculous example of what economists call demand elasticity, one has to wonder how long growth will continue to outpace price degradation.
At some point the marginal growth in demand may not equal the marginal decline in pricing. Should that happen, revenues will start going down rather than up.
Part of what drives this price/growth effect has been the creation of programmatic ad buying, which allows Google to place more ads in more specific locations for advertisers via such automated products as Admob, Adexchange and Doubleclick Bid Manager.

Medicare Part D Medicare, specifically Part D, plays a huge role in prescription drug prices. It also one of the most hotly contested issues in the pharmaceutical industry
Now, however, it has fallen under scrutiny as drug prices continue to rise across the nation. The big deal with Medicare Part D is this:

#U s. Distributed Solar Prices Fell 10 to 20 Percent in 2014, with Trends Continuing into 2015 The installed price of distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) power systems in the United states continues to fall precipitously.
This is according to the latest edition of Tracking the Sun, an annual PV cost tracking report produced by the Department of energy Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab). Installed prices for residential and small nonresidential systems completed in 2014 were $0. 40-per-watt (W) lower,
and prices for large nonresidential systems were $0. 70/W lower, than in the prior year. his marked the fifth consecutive year of significant price reductions for distributed PV systems in the U s.,
notes Galen Barbose of Berkeley Lab Electricity Markets and Policy Group, the report lead author.
Within the first six months of 2015, installed prices within a number of large state markets fell by an additional $0. 20 to $0. 50/W,
or 6 to 13 percent, maintaining the steady pace of solar price declines in recent years.
The continued decline in PV system pricing is given especially noteworthy the relatively stable price of PV modules since 2012.
The report attributes recent system price declines, instead, to reductions in solar oftcosts. These include such things as marketing and customer acquisition
and the report suggests that these efforts are partly responsible for recent price declines. The report also highlights the tremendous variability in PV system pricing.
and suggests that ow-price leadersin these states can serve as a benchmark for installed price reductions that could be achieved more broadly.
In Arizona, for example, 20 percent of residential installers had median prices at or below $3. 00/W in 2014, compared to the median price of $4. 30/W across all U s. residential systems in 2014.
The report examines various other drivers for PV system prices such as system size, the state in which the system is installed,
whether it is owned by the site host or a third party, whether it is installed in new construction or on existing buildings,
To varying degrees, these many factors are all found to impact PV system prices. As Barbose stresses
