  2. Amortized analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amortized_analysis

    The accounting method is a form of aggregate analysis which assigns to each operation an amortized cost which may differ from its actual cost. Early operations have an amortized cost higher than their actual cost, which accumulates a saved "credit" that pays for later operations having an amortized cost lower than their actual cost. Because the ...

  3. Accounting method (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accounting_method...

    In the field of analysis of algorithms in computer science, the accounting method is a method of amortized analysis based on accounting. The accounting method often gives a more intuitive account of the amortized cost of an operation than either aggregate analysis or the potential method. Note, however, that this does not guarantee such ...

  4. Best, worst and average case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best,_worst_and_average_case

    For example, the best case for a simple linear search on a list occurs when the desired element is the first element of the list. Development and choice of algorithms is rarely based on best-case performance: most academic and commercial enterprises are more interested in improving average-case complexity and worst-case performance. Algorithms ...

  5. Amortization (accounting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amortization_(accounting)

    Amortization is the acquisition cost minus the residual value of an asset, calculated in a systematic manner over an asset's useful economic life. Depreciation is a corresponding concept for tangible assets. Methodologies for allocating amortization to each accounting period are generally the same as those for depreciation.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earnings_before_interest...

    A company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (commonly abbreviated EBITDA, [1] pronounced / ˈ iː b ɪ t d ɑː,-b ə-, ˈ ɛ-/ [2]) is a measure of a company's profitability of the operating business only, thus before any effects of indebtedness, state-mandated payments, and costs required to maintain its asset base.

  7. Flat rate (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_rate_(finance)

    The total cost of this loan is the principal plus $48.00 in interest, whilst the average amount outstanding was approximately $600. This yields an annualized flat rate of 12%, and an annualized effective or true rate of 19.05%. The true rate can also be calculated by iteration from the amortization schedule, using the compound interest formula.

  8. Fibonacci heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_heap

    The amortized performance of a Fibonacci heap depends on the degree (number of children) of any tree root being (⁡), where is the size of the heap. Here we show that the size of the (sub)tree rooted at any node x {\displaystyle x} of degree d {\displaystyle d} in the heap must have size at least F d + 2 {\displaystyle F_{d+2}} , where F i ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_calculator

    A financial calculator or business calculator is an electronic calculator that performs financial functions commonly needed in business and commerce communities [1] (simple interest, compound interest, cash flow, amortization, conversion, cost/sell/margin, depreciation etc.).
