A Binomial Contingent Claims Model For Valuing Risky Ventures, Peter H. Ritchken, Bardia Kamrad Jun 1988

A Binomial Contingent Claims Model For Valuing Risky Ventures, Peter H. Ritchken, Bardia Kamrad

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

Recently techniques of continuous time arbitrage and stochastic control theory have been used to value risky ventures characterized by significant operating flexibility. While the advantages of these methods over the used discounted cash flow approaches have been well documented, implementation problems have emerged, primarily due to the immence mathematical and computational complexity inherent in these approaches and due to the fact that the methodology is not easily understood by management. This article uses a simple binomial framework which not only provides an easily understandable introduction to these new methods, but also provides useful valuations in their own right.


The State And Future Of Televised Professional Training Systems, Robert Michael Brady May 1988

The State And Future Of Televised Professional Training Systems, Robert Michael Brady

Theses

This paper investigates the topic of televised professional training -- that is training and educating managers and technical professionals via live or videotaped television broadcasts. The investigation begins with a description of how some typical educational networks operate; it then goes on to analyze in a strictly theoretical sense, some of the advantages and disadvantages that such a system would have compared with the traditional methods of offering continuing education; it then discusses the results of two specially prepared surveys -- one addressed to the administrator/manager, and one addressed to the student. These areas are then united in a final …


A Model For The Determination Of Market Based Pricing Of Telecommunication Products, Katherine J. Sullivan May 1988

A Model For The Determination Of Market Based Pricing Of Telecommunication Products, Katherine J. Sullivan

Theses

The deregulation of AT&T, has impacted telecommunication product pricing in the U.S. market. Previously, pricing had been based on cost plus mark-up, as stipulated by regulatory commissions. Now, pricing decisions require consideration of the competitive impact, consumer demand for the product, corporate pricing objectives and marketing strategies. This paper proposes a pricing process that is relevant for this new environment which enables the product manager to price properly.

The method proposed utilizes microeconomic theory and takes into account the product test price, unit cost, opportunity cost, nonprice factor cost and consumer demand. Incorporating a number of different pricing strategies, it …

Workforce Scheduling: A Taxonomy Of The Literature And Specification Of Potential Research Topics, Rudy Hung, Arnold Reisman Apr 1988

Workforce Scheduling: A Taxonomy Of The Literature And Specification Of Potential Research Topics, Rudy Hung, Arnold Reisman

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

The literature includes numerous workforce scheduling models, most of which are special cases or minor variations of the landmark Burns and Carter (BC) model. Some, however, extend the BC model significantly. This paper presents a taxonomy of workforce scheduling methodologies and classifies the majority of contributions to date. The classification highlights both the similarities and differences among the various approaches and identifies gaps in the literature. These gaps represent potential areas for further research.


A Systems Approach To Identifying Knowledge Voids In Problem Solving Disciplines And Professions, Arnold Reisman Apr 1988

A Systems Approach To Identifying Knowledge Voids In Problem Solving Disciplines And Professions, Arnold Reisman

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

The more mature a problem solving discipline or profession the greater is its dependence on its science base and less on its art form of knowledge. Knowledge for problem solving disciplines or professions, such as engineering or management, can be subdivided into three sectors e.g. data, methodology and problems. This paper discusses the significance of the availability of knowledge in each of these sectors and in each overlap between the sectors. Next, the paper discusses and illustrates a systematic approach to meta-analyses of past research in a field toward the ends of: a. Synthesizing what is known in a manner …

Book Review: Managing Macroeconomic Policy: The Johnson Presidency By James E. Anderson And Jared E. Hazelton, Ann Mari May Mar 1988

Book Review: Managing Macroeconomic Policy: The Johnson Presidency By James E. Anderson And Jared E. Hazelton, Ann Mari May

College of Business: Faculty Publications

The emergence of active countercyclical stabilization policies in the 1960s presented politicians with the problem of formulating economically desirable policies that were politically feasible as well. Economists have traditionally concerned themselves with the technical aspects of stabilization policy, leaving the analysis of actual policy formation to political scientists. James Anderson and Jared Hazelton, in Managing Macroeconomic Policy: The Johnson Presidency, present us with an analysis of macroeconomic policy in the Johnson presidency that bridges this gap by attempting to determine how the "intermixture of economic and political considerations shaped and limited the actions of those involved in the development …

Present Net Worth And Internal Rate Of Return: A Note On Equivalence In Use, K. A. Blatner, Steven H. Bullard Jan 1988

Present Net Worth And Internal Rate Of Return: A Note On Equivalence In Use, K. A. Blatner, Steven H. Bullard

Faculty Publications

Present net worth and internal rate of return are frequently used for ranking investment alternatives. The relative merits and limitations of the two criteria are discussed at length in numerous journal articles and texts. For analysts wishing to present consistent project comparisons, the issue is not which criterion is superior, but when are they equivalent. In this article, conditions for equivalence in use are outlined under alternative assumptions. Although the conditions appear complex, they are not unduly restrictive.

Scottish Enlightenment And The Development Of Accounting, Michael J. Mepham Jan 1988

Scottish Enlightenment And The Development Of Accounting, Michael J. Mepham

Accounting Historians Journal

This article outlines the lives and background of the main writers who were active in the 18th century period of 'scottish Ascendancy' in accounting texts. The impressive publications produced by this group are detailed and the question of why this phenomenon should have occurred in Scotland is considered. It is suggested that the Scottish Ascendancy in accounting texts can be considered as part of the achievements of the Scottish Enlightenment and as complementary to the more renowned works in economics, law and philosophy, which are generally recognized as an important component of that movement.

Trends In The Evolution Of Scholarly Accounting Thought: A Quantitative Examination, Miklos A. Vasarhelyi, Da Hsein Bao, Joel Berk

Accounting Historians Journal

Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR) has expanded substantially in scope over the past two decades. This paper provides an overview of these trends using both quantitative techniques from statistics and exploratory data analysis (EDA). Articles in CAR are classified into taxonomies and the literature tracked over 22 years. Analysis focuses on four taxonomies: foundation discipline, school of thought, research method and mode of reasoning. The paper first examines journals vis-a-vis article publication frequency and dominant taxonomies. Secondly, three assertions concerning the relative posture of the Journal of Accounting Research and the literature are examined. Next the context of the literature is …
