   Land value taxation (i.e. property tax applied only to the unimproved value of land) has a long history in the United States dating back from Physiocrat influence on Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. It is most famously associated with Henry George and his book Progress and Poverty (1879), which argued that because the supply of land is ...

3. Land value tax - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_value_tax

   A land value tax ( LVT) is a levy on the value of land without regard to buildings, personal property and other improvements upon it. [1] It is also known as a location value tax, a point valuation tax, a site valuation tax, split rate tax, or a site-value rating . Some economists favor LVT, arguing it does not cause economic inefficiency, and ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highest_and_best_use

   The highest and best use of the site is to demolish the house and sell the site as a commercial lot. The market value would be $225,000 ($250,000 site value minus $25,000 demolition cost). However, if the demolition costs rose to $55,000, the highest and best use would be the existing residential use, because the value as a commercial lot (now ...

   Floor Area ratio is sometimes called floor space ratio ( FSR ), floor space index ( FSI ), site ratio or plot ratio . The difference between FAR and FSI is that the first is a ratio, while the latter is an index. Index numbers are values expressed as a percentage of a single base figure. Thus an FAR of 1.5 is translated as an FSI of 150%.

7. Born–Landé equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Born–Landé_equation

   The Born–Landé equation is a means of calculating the lattice energy of a crystalline ionic compound. In 1918 [1] Max Born and Alfred Landé proposed that the lattice energy could be derived from the electrostatic potential of the ionic lattice and a repulsive potential energy term. [2] where: r0 = distance between closest cation [ +ve ...
