Mathematics & Statistics | | French term or phrase: unique | I'm having difficulties understanding the concept of "unique" in this context:
"Si l’on suppose que le salaire est unique dans l’économie et qu’il progresse au rythme de la productivité moyenne"
The translation is about input costs and the generation of higher productivity gains. |

49 mins confidence: | on suppose que ... unique dans consider / assume that ... stands in isolation within
Explanation:
I'm no economics expert, but I suspect this is trying to say that, for the purposes presumably of simplifying the calulcation, the salary is being looked at in isolation, i.e. without taking into account its interactions with other factors, for example.
VERY low confidence here, just a hunch that may perhaps end up leading you in the right direction...

Right, then this clearly couldn't be right, though we are labouring under a serious absence of context.
