Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva

Corporate Governance, Strategy, And Supply Management Performance: An Empirical Analysis Of Companies Listed In The São Paulo Stock Exchange, Wesley Mendes-Da-Silva

This paper examines whether the corporate governance structures of firms with diversified suppliers differ from those of firms with more specialized or concentrated suppliers. This study consists of multiple cross sections that cover the period between 1997 and 2001 and incorporates data collected from 176 industrial companies from fourteen industrial segments that listed stocks in Bovespa, the São Paulo Stock Exchange. This study based its exploration on the premise that minimized inventory and minimized days’ sales in inventory ratios define the best-performing supply management.

The Sa Guide To Tax-Efficient Cars: A Study On How To Drive More For Less, David Cattell

David Cattell

This book delves deeply into the issues surrounding company cars and car allowances. It is a specialist publication that looks to give perspective and insight by contemplating the recent history of the legislation governing the taxes in this area, how they've evolved and where we can imagine them to be headed. It looks at a quantitative assessment of the current laws, and by doing it highlights the opportunities and pitfalls that arise, whether they've been created by those who write the laws by way of their intent or (more likely) by their neglect.
