DLSU Business & Economics Review

Wide variations in climatic conditions from prolonged dry season to frequent occurrence of super typhoons have significant impact on the Philippines, especially on rural poor households which depend heavily on agriculture and food production for subsistence and income. This paper provides a research framework that can be used to understand the dynamics between climate change and agriculture. The framework incorporates the effects of climate change on agricultural productivity, as well as the effects of agricultural activities and land use on climate change through the emission of greenhouse gasses. The framework uses three simulation models to analyse the impact of climate …

Evaluating Banking Agents: A Case Of Brazilian Banking Correspondents, Tania Pereira Christopoulos, Lauro Emilio Gonzales Frias, Tomás Costa De Azevedo Marques

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Financial institutions play an important role in the development of any country’s economy, but there is still an enormous gap between supply and demand of financial services that meet the needs of the poor. Hence, it is important to analyze the role of the traditional financial system in the expansion of proper financial services, and their accessibility to the poor. Within inclusive finance, the most promising topic seems to be branchless banking. One major example of branchless banking is the case of banking correspondents (BC) in Brazil. In order to deepen the comprehension of the subject, this article will present …


Breastfeeding In The Philippine Workplace: What’S Wrong With The Right?, Emily Sanchez Salcedo Jan 2015

Breastfeeding In The Philippine Workplace: What’S Wrong With The Right?, Emily Sanchez Salcedo

DLSU Business & Economics Review

There are four main differences between the Philippine and American statutes that promote breastfeeding. First, the Philippine law provides that lactation breaks should be compensated while the American law explicitly stated that employers are under no such obligation. Second, the Philippine law provides for “culturally appropriate lactation care and services” whereas majority of American states exempt breastfeeding from public indecency laws. Third, the Philippine law makes a conclusive statement that breastfeeding “enhances mother-infant relationship”. The American law wisely left such matter to individual realization. Fourth, the Philippine law puts the right of a mother to breastfeed on equal footing with …

Dine In Or Out: Understanding The Budgeting And Eating Out Behavior Of De La Salle University Students, Ma. Luisa C. Delayco, Hazel T. Biana

DLSU Business & Economics Review

The preparation and consumption of one’s food is governed by choices, attitudes, behavior, and beliefs. In De La Salle University, a school surrounded by a variety of restaurants, students make these food choices every day. Understanding how these food decisions are made is noteworthy, as this paper seeks to comprehend the students’ budgeting and eating out behavior through the use of Fishbein and Ajzen’s Theory of Reasoned Action. The underlying variables of the budgeting and eating out behavior of students are used to explain the pattern of correlations within a set of observed variables. Through an administered survey and data …


Friends In High Places: Measuring The Effects Of Compensation Committee Characteristics On Ceo Pay Packages In 2013, Danielle M. Knott Jan 2015

Friends In High Places: Measuring The Effects Of Compensation Committee Characteristics On Ceo Pay Packages In 2013, Danielle M. Knott

CMC Senior Theses

In the past decade, public scrutiny surrounding rising levels of executive compensation has led to more stringent independence requirements for compensation committees. However, there is little research studying the effects of compensation committees on executive pay from the time these new requirements were implemented. My paper studies the effects of compensation committee chair personal ties to the CEO, economic interests, and group committee characteristics on both the level and structure of CEO compensation. My findings suggest that certain committee chair personal ties to the CEO are associated with both a higher level of CEO compensation and a higher percentage of …

Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences

لقد أكدت الوقائع التاريخية حقيقة أن المجتمع الذي يقوم على نظام تربوي وعلمي منفتح ومتجدد سيحتل موقعا كبيرا في عملية البناء والتطور, وللجامعات دورا مهما في المجتمع من خلال تنفيذها لهذا الدور الذي تطلع به والنظر بجدية لما يمليه عليها اسهامها في تطور المجتمع. ولاشك أن مسؤولية إعداد محاسبين مؤهلين بالمهارات المهنية المطلوبة تقع على عاتق عدد من الجهات، ومن أبرز هذه الجهات مؤسسات التعليم العالي وذلك من خلال صياغة وتبني ومواكبة سياسات وأساليب تعليمية حديثة تركز على إكساب الطالب الجامعي القدرات والمهارات المهنية اللازمة وتنمي لديه التفكير التحليلي والابتكاري ,أن الأسلوب التقليدي المتبع حاليا لا يؤهل الطالب الجامعي بالقدر …

Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences

من المعروف ان قواعد القانون الدستوري هي قواعد داخلية تنظم العديد من المسائل الهامة في الدولة , ومن ضمنها الحقوق والحريات العامة ، وقد اتجهت أكثر الدساتير في العالم إلى أحاطت هذه الحقوق ضمن مبادئ ونصوص دستورية وذلك للحيلولة من المساس بها والاعتداء عليها من أي جهة كانت .تعتبر حقوق الأقليات من أهم الملامح الأساسية للدساتير الديمقراطية ، لأنها تفسر كيف تحافظ الدولة عن حقوق الفئة القليلة بوجود الأغلبية وهم دائما أصحاب السلطة والقوة .سوف نسلط الضوء في هذا البحث على تعريف هذه الحقوق وأنواعها ، وكيف تعاملت الدساتير العراقية بمرور التاريخ مع الأقليات وحقوقهم السياسية، مثل حق الانتخاب ، …

Muthanna Journal of Administrative and Economics Sciences

يعد النظام المصرفي من أكثر الأنظمة التي تنطوي على مخاطر، والقروض البنكية تعد الخدمة الرئيسية وأهم مصدر لتحقيق العوائد بالنسبة للبنوك التجارية، وبقدر أهمية القروض كمصدر للعوائد بقدر ما تشكل مصدرا حقيقيا للمخاطرة، حيث لا وجود لقرض دون مخاطرة، وفي هذا الوضع تصبح البنوك مجبرة على تقدير تلك المخاطر، والتنبؤ بها للتقليل منها إلى أدنى حد وفي وقت قياسي. وتعتبر الرقابة المركزة على المخاطر أحد الأدوات والأساليب الرقابية الجديدة التي تعمل على الحد من تزايد المخاطر الإئتمانية والمصرفية.تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى التعرف على مساهمة نظام الرقابة الداخلية وفعاليتها في عملية إدارة مخاطر الإئتمان في بنك الفلاحة والتنمية الريفية، ولقد تم …

Development Of A Fuzzy Linear Programming Model For Allocation Of Inoperability In Economic Sectors Due To Loss Of Natural Resource Inputs, Raymond R. Tan, Kathleen B. Aviso, Michael Angelo B. Promentilla, Krista Danielle S. Yu, Joost R. Santos Jan 2015

Development Of A Fuzzy Linear Programming Model For Allocation Of Inoperability In Economic Sectors Due To Loss Of Natural Resource Inputs, Raymond R. Tan, Kathleen B. Aviso, Michael Angelo B. Promentilla, Krista Danielle S. Yu, Joost R. Santos

DLSU Business & Economics Review

The inoperability input-output model (IIM) has recently been proposed as an extension of conventional input-output analysis for assessing the vulnerability of interdependent infrastructures to various perturbations, such as natural disasters, industrial accidents, and deliberate attacks. The IIM framework makes use of a dimensionless risk metric called inoperability, which quantifies the degree of failure of a system on a scale ranging from 0 (normal state) to 1 (total failure). This inoperability is then assumed to propagate through any given industrial network after being induced by initial demand or supply-side perturbations. This work presents a fuzzy linear programming (FLP) model to allocate …

Three Studies Examining The Effects Of Psychological Distance On Judgment And Decision Making In Accounting, Martin Weisner

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This dissertation comprises three studies, a literature review and two experimental studies, that center on the effects of psychological distance on judgment and decision-making in accounting. Construal level theory (CLT) of psychological distance (Liberman and Trope 1998; Trope and Liberman 2003), a framework recently developed in the field of social psychology, constitutes the theoretical foundation for each study. The first study reviews extant literature on CLT and illustrates the theory's potential for investigating previously unexplained phenomena within the accounting domain. Selected publications that apply CLT in contexts that are of particular interest to accounting researchers are emphasized and a series …
