relevant range. Usually used in describing fixed costs. We often state that fixed costs will not change as volume changes. However, if volume were to triple, there would likely be more fixed costs as the company will need more space and managers.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from Predicate nominative) In grammar, a subject complement (also called a predicative complement) is a predicative expression that follows a linking verb (copula) and that complements the subject of the sentence by either (1) renaming it or (2) describing it.
The traditional term for a noun, pronoun, or other nominal that follows a linking verb (usually a form of the verb be). The contemporary term for a predicate nominative is subject complement. The predicate nominative is used with the verb to be and all its forms: be, am, is, are, was, were and been. 2  Think of the verb as an equal sign: What's on one side of it is the same as what's on the other side, especially when it comes to pronoun case.
