1% lower.

AMT A tax-law provision that ensures that some income tax, no matter how many
deductions or credits they claim. Under the AMT, certain money not usually considered
taxable such as municipal bond interest is teated as taxable. People with income over
$75,000 and many tax deductions often fall under this provision. Most vulnerable
are taxpayers with several children, interest deductions from second mortgages, high state
and local taxes and incentive stock options.

American depository receipts
ADR Shares of non-US companies that trade in the U.S. stock market. American
depository receipts, or ADRs, offer distinct advantages to the U.S. investor. First, they
require no complex currency transactions as they can be purchased in U.S. dollars. Also,
most ADR companies are required to report financial details of their operations in
accordance with generally acepted accounting principles. That makes their earnings more
transparent and less subject to manupulation or fraud.

Defined benefit plan
A define-benefit plan is a traditional pension plan usually paid for by your employer.
Upon retirement, you received a fixed monthly check based on your age, salary and
length of service. Unlike a 401(k) or other defined contribution plans, ir does not
necessarily require you to contribute any portion of your salary to receive a retirement
benefit.
A pension plan in which the level of contributions is fixed at a certain level, while
benefits vary depending on the return from the investments. In some cases such
as 401(k) and 437 plans, employees make voluntary contributions into a taxdeferred account, which may or may not be matched by an employer. Defined
contribution plans, unlike definec benefit plans, give the employee options where
to invest the account, usually among stock, bond and money-market mutual
funds.
A decline in the general price level of goods and services that results in increased
purchasing power of money. The opposite of inflation . Deflation is not always
good for an economy because companies have no pricing power.

A sum of money lent at interest. An act of lending To lend. Usage Note: The verb
loan is well established in American usage and cannot be considered incorrect. The
frequent objections to the form by American grammarians may have originated from a
provincial deference to British critics, who long ago labeled the usage a typical
Americanism. But loan is used only to describe physical transactions, as of money or
goods. For figurative transactions, lend is the only possible form: Distance lends
enchantment. The allusions lend the work a classical tone. Lend is also required in fixed
expressions such as lend-lease and moneylender

Zipper
A fastening device consisting of parallel rows of metal, plastic, or nylon teeth on adjacent
edges of an opening that are interlocked by a sliding tab.Word History: The word zipper
is an example of what the owners of trademarks try to prevent. Registered in 1925, zipper
was originally a B.F. Goodrich trademark for overshoes with asteners. A Goodrich
executive is said to have slid the fastener up and down on the boot and exclaimed, Zip

'er up, from the zipping sound made by the device. The noun zip and the verb zip,
referring to a light sharp sound or to motion accompanied by that kind of sound, were
already in existence (zip as a noun was first recorded in 1875; as a verb, in 1852). The
two words owed their origin to the imitation by speakers of the sound made by a rapidly
moving object. As the fastener that zipped came to be used in other articles, its name
became generalized. B.F. Goodrich sued to protect its trademark but was allowed to
retain proprietary rights over it only for its Zipper Boots. Zipper had moved out into the
world of common nouns.
