And as more solar customers, often big power users, pay the utilities less, the utilities say they will raise rates to recover their costs from a shrinking customer base.
Every indication is that the number of rollover deaths will keep climbing, even as automakers take steps to make sport utilities less prone to rolling over, and to make them protect their occupants better when they do.
Purchased for $1.25 million by A.R.T./New York, the five-story building has three rehearsal studios, an auditorium and office equipment, all for a rock-bottom yearly rent of $12 a square foot, including utilities, less than half the lowest rent of $30 a square foot in Manhattan.
Imposing a 3percentt rate on a fixed baseline in just two years would cost utilities less than one-tenth of one penny more per kilowatt hour of electricity over the current standard.
As with the ASCOT, utilities less than '0' represent health states that are deemed to be worse than death [ 36, 39].
Compared to non-caregivers, caregivers had fewer health state utilities less than 0.95 and more responses at the ceiling, indicating less willingness to trade time or gamble.
For all health states in Studies 1 and 2 (Tables 3 and 4), a smaller percentage of caregivers had utilities less than 0.95 compared with non-caregivers.
Therefore, "worse than dead" ratings in Study 1 are used in categorical analyses (e.g., counted among the frequencies of utilities less than 0.95), but not in continuous analyses which require precise utility scores.
Owing to the very small sample size (0.63%) of respondents who had observed utilities < 0.2, MSEs for EQ-5D utilities less than 0.2 could not be computed in Models I and IV.
