Alianzas Estratégicas Internacionales

····· lezzter Preis 71.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Aunque las alianzas se vienen realizando desde épocas inmemoriales, sin embargo no es hasta los últimos años cuando éstas han experimentado un crecimiento sin precedentes. El actual entorno globalizado en el que se desenvuelven las organizaciones está llevando a que muchas de ellas busquen socios, muchas veces situados en los mercados internacionales. Hoy día las compañías se ven forzadas a crear alianzas estratégicas pues no pueden mantener ventajas competitivas a lo largo de toda la cadena de valor. Las alianzas son un elemento fundamental de la estrategia de dichas empresas, y asegurar su éxito es una cuestión primordial. En este contexto, nos centraremos en el estudio de las relaciones entre los socios, y su impacto sobre los resultados. Para ello hemos desarrollado un modelo que ha sido testado con PLS sobre una población de 105 alianzas estratégicas internacionales creadas por empresas españolas. Los resultados confirman en gran medida el modelo propuesto. ····· 10361116324

Optimal Deteriorating Inventory Control and Price Theory

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The implicit assumption in conventional inventory models is that the stored products maintain the same utility forever. However, almost all products experience some sort of deterioration over time. Fruits, vegetables, drugs, blood, perfumes, alcohol, gasoline, radioactive substances, photographic films, and electronic components are examples that can experience significant deterioration during storage. The current situation calls for an optimal inventory control and pricing strategy for deteriorating products. There is a severe lack of solid and comprehensive research in this area. In light of this, this book focuses on developing and implementing tools to effectively manage deteriorating inventory and pricing strategies. The models incorporate various real-world conditions such as periodic review, time-varying deterioration rate, partial backlogging, time-dependent customer demand, discrete customer demand etc. You need this book if you are a researcher or practitioner interested in production and inventory control, large scale optimization, optimization modeling, pricing science, logistics and supply chain management. ····· 10361116093

Hedging & Pricing of Options using least squares through simulation

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The enormous growth of derivatives markets necessitates the pricing and hedging of derivative contracts accurately and efficiently. This work extends the pricing approach introduced by Longstaff and Schwartz to a stochastic volatility model, namely the Heston Model. The method employed is also used to compute the Option Greeks extending the approach of the paper Hedging using simulation: a least squares approach by Tebaldi. A number of options are considered ranging from plain vanilla to exotics such as Power put and Binary (Asset-or-Nothing) put options in the Black-Scholes model. Finally the methodology is applied to the Heston Model wherein a plain vanilla European call is priced and hedged and the plain vanilla American put option is priced. The price as well as Option Greeks are compared against well-known procedures used in the industry today. Researchers as well as academicians concerned with hedging of derivative contracts would find this work useful. ····· 10361116090

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Amid the rising concern of the reliability of the auditor`s report to shareholders` investment decisions in the country, it becomes imperative to consider the kind of relationship that exists. Shareholders represent the owner of the business and because they are divorced from the day to day activities of the business, there is a need for an independent auditor to help certify the financial statement prepared by the management. Shareholders rely on auditor`s report and so the possibility of relying on it despite previous compromises on the part of the auditor is needed to be established. Specifically, we set out to investigate the relationship between the auditor`s report and the shareholders` investment decision. We make use of correlation coefficient to establish the relationship and in the finding we discover that a positive relationship exists but weak and mild. We therefore recommend that the contents of the report be improved upon and peer review of audited reports should be encouraged to enable shareholders place reliance on the report. This work will be of immense benefits to the investment analysts, shareholders and the regulatory authorities. ····· 10361115911

Knowledge Management (KM) has attracted much attention as a key strategy to achieve organisational success and survival in today s unpredictable and highly competitive environment. And yet, unless people in organisations possess the learning capability to use knowledge creatively, a well developed knowledge management system cannot be directed at sustaining profitability. In the new economy, the achievement of a sustained competitive advantage depends on firm s capacity to develop and deploy its knowledge based resources. One way of ensuring competitive advantage is to develop a highly-skilled workforce equipped with the knowledge and expertise required to stay ahead in the marketplace. The topic of KM is still at a relatively young stage of development. There are many areas of debate within the literature concerning the management of knowledge. One of the main areas where understanding is still limited is the role of Human Resources Management (HRM). Within the search of the key factors that explain knowledge management effectiveness, this publication aims to advance a simultaneously conceptual and practical framework that links HRM and knowledge management. ····· 10361115707

Small to Medium Enterprise Governance

····· lezzter Preis 53.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Corporate governance regimes such as the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX 2003) Corporate Governance Council`s Guidelines, the Combined Code (2003) in the UK, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (2002) in the US reflect pervading beliefs that the majority of business is undertaken by large listed public companies, the characteristics of big business and the endemic threats to their owners` financial welfare they entail are universal, and that as a consequence governance regimes necessary and appropriate for big business are necessarily appropriate for small business. Those regimes are underpinned by a specific variety of shareholder primacy, with considerably less of a focus on the interests of the other, but softer, stakeholders. A substantial part of commercial activity is undertaken by Small and Medium Enterprises contributing to GDP and employment and as such are an important element of the economy. This book examines the notion of SME Governance, that is the hypothesized irrelevance (for most purposes), to the commercial affairs of SMEs of the dominant themes underpinning the corporate governance regimes currently in vogue. ····· 10361115540

Intellectual Capital

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This thesis examines the concept of intellectual capital and its effect on share prices as a means to solve the lemons problem existent in current capital markets. In order to see whether intellectual capital could be part of a solution to combat this problem, the VAICTM was employed to determine the relevance of intellectual capital in relation to the stock price. The results of the regressions carried out show that the VAICTM is significant and provides increased explainability in the variation of stock prices. This leads to the conclusion that intellectual capital is an important determinant of share returns. Time comparisons of the R2 of calendar year regressions yielded no definitive conclusions regarding the conjecture that there was increased relevance of the measure of intellectual capital over time. Altogether, the results point towards the hypothesized relation between intellectual capital information and share returns. This indicates that high quality companies that wish to seek external financing in a market facing the lemons problem would benefit from the increased disclosure of intellectual capital information. ····· 10361115490

Divergence in Managerial Accounting Practices

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
After the revolutionary arguments of relevance lost (Johnson and Kaplan, 1987) the traditional management accounting practices have gone through huge debates. Management accounting tools like target costing, kaizen costing, competitor analysis, balanced scorecard, value chain analysis, quality costing, just in time and others got great responses from the academicians. But when the issue of practical applicability came, it was found that, in so many cases, these revolutionary new tools and techniques of management accounting did not get much importance from the part of the practitioners. Another important matter that was found is that the popularity of these tools varied across the countries. The monograph concludes that there is a divergence in the use of management accounting practices among the industries and among the national cultures because of the fact that these contemporary management accounting tools demand some prerequisites to get applied and these prerequisites are not available in the same level in different countries. ····· 10361115433

Role of Trust in bank lending

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Banks in India operate in a very different lending environment as compared to western banks. The government owns many banks in India and state intervention in bank lending is considerable in India. Conventional instrument based methods of risk evaluation have limited use for banks in India. This book uses a social risk evaluation process based on the notion of social capital and trust to examine the structure and working of Indian bank branches. The role of trust in the relationship between branch managers and loan officers is critically studied. A framework of trust between branch managers and loan officers is developed. According to this framework, a branch manager and a loan officer develop a trusting relationship because both branch manager and loan officer have incentive to trust each other due to risk in lending. Trust between branch managers and loan officers of bank branches depends on seven characteristics of trust. Trust contributes significantly to the improvement of lending performance of bank branches in India. The conclusions arrived in this study have important implications for the management of banks. ····· 10361115303

Mudarabah in Islamic Banking

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The contrast between the theory and practice of Islamic banking is generally acknowledged by many scholars. After more than three decades in operation, the rapid growth of the Islamic banking industry is, in reality being driven by the application of the debt-like contracts (e.g. murabahah and ijarah) rather than the profit and loss sharing contracts (e.g. mudarabah and musharakah). As the adaptation of the former contracts creates `unauthentic` Islamic financial products, many have questioned their compliance with shariah principles. The present study analyses this issue by examining the application of mudarabah rules in Malaysian Islamic banking practices. It evaluates the extent to which the current practices fulfil the principles and the ethical framework of the mudarabah contract as propounded by the classical jurists. The study also analyses the justifications of Malaysian shariah scholars for modification of the doctrine, adapting it to the modern banking business. ····· 10361115068

Diversity in Corporate Giving

The phenomenon of corporations making donations to charities is a well-known occurrence in society nowadays. There has been substantial academic research exploring the reasons why corporations engage in Corporate Giving and several theories have been developed to find a correlation between the financial amount distributed and the company`s general characteristics. However, there is hardly any research available on corporate donating strategies. This books aims to fill this gap by investigating the donating attributes of the business sector. The analysis, based on research of 355 corporations from eighteen different countries and ten different industries, gives an insight into whether a corporation`s industrial group and/or nationality have an effect on the donating behaviour. This book is especially useful for professionals in the Management Accounting as well as Corporate Governance fields, as well as for anyone else who has an interest in Corporate Giving. ····· 10361114850

This study examines the effects of IFRS 3 Business Combinations on goodwill impairment losses reported by a sample of 52 firms, drawn from the largest UK firms listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange during the period 2006-2008. The sample was identified as a result of certain criteria. The majority of the sample firms met the threshold of significant goodwill (greater than or equal to 10% of total assets) indicating that goodwill as an asset representing a material component of the reported asset portfolio for the research sample. The study investigates whether the current accounting treatment for goodwill has contributed to greater uniformity in accounting for goodwill and its impairment, and consequently enabled comparison to be made across industries and through time. The study lends support to the international accounting standard-setters` decision to question the usefulness of the current accounting treatment of goodwill under IFRS. ····· 10361114774

An explorative study on Temporary Skills Transfer:

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This thesis explores two cases of temporary skills transfer (TST), a new phenomenon that involves the temporary transfer of a skill between a group of companies. The skill compensates for a shortage of human resources and solves capacity issues in the development process. We find that TST effectively solves short term problems, and due to a competitive price and speed it contributes with a competitive advantage. In the long run, however, TST becomes less valuable for a number of reasons, including that it fails to build internal competences and avoid uncertainty. The governance structure is characterised as a mean between that of a strategic alliance and an arm s length relation, and as a result managerial challenges of TST differ, but takes characteristics from both. Trust reduces transaction costs, but due to minimal commitment and investment in relation specific assets, the companies do not succeed in generating relational rents. The design of the alliance and non firm specific character of the exchange, in turn, makes the risk of opportunism obsolete. ····· 10361114635
