The output y is obtained by division of the input u by a →polynomial function of an argument (u_lamdba or lambda). The division is guarded against division by zero.

Examples

• The EBIT may be obtained using u = EBITAT, lambda = taxrate, a = {1, -1}.


• In markup pricing, the COGS may be obtained using u = sales price, lambda = markup, a = {1, 1}.

lambda	Value: 0 Type: Real Description: Argument of the polynomial function (e.g., taxrate, markup)
a	Value: {1, 1} Type: Real[:] Description: Vector of coefficients for the polynomial function (a_0, a_1, ..., a_n)
YIDZ	Value: inf Type: OutputType Description: Output, if denominator (polynomial function) is zero (default = inf)
hasConstantArgument	Value: false Type: Boolean Description: = true, if the argument of the polynomial function is a constant value
