Virginia—Major Force In World Trade, R. Clifton Poole

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

The importance of world trade has long been recognized in the Commonwealth of Virginia (VA). Indeed, one of the major reasons for establishing the original colony at Jamestown was to provide a base from which the New World "treasures" could be shipped to the mother country—England. As a result, since colonial days VA has been one of the world's major exporters of tobacco. Even today the volume of VA's tobacco exports is second only to her exports of bituminous coal.

This world trade orientation so deeply imprinted in the thinking of the early leaders of the infant colony still prevails …

The Perception And Use Of Consumer Information Sources, Thomas D. Giese, Terry M. Weisenberger

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

The Federal Office of Consumers' Education (OCE) released, in 1982, an updated definition of consumer education which states that consumer education develops skills, knowledge, and understandings that will help consumers make better purchase decisions.

Who is today's consumer? The consumer is a part-time amateur buyer facing, in the marketplace, a whole series of full-time professional sellers. This definition describes the consumer's situation in today's dynamic and complex market. Since the early 1970's, a growing awareness of consumer rights and needs has occurred in the marketplace. This awareness involves the resources necessary for the consumer to cope within the environment.

A Study Of Juvenile Shoplifting Behavior, Judith D. Powell, George P. Moschis

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

With shoplifting being the largest monetary crime in the nation, attempts have been made in earlier studies to profile shoplifters but little attention has been given to conditions leading to such behavior. The present study provides a framework for studying such behavior; it seeks explanation for this type of deviant consumer behavior from theories of developmental psychology and sociological models of human behavior. The focus is on juvenile shoplifters who. are believed to account for the largest percentage of all shoplifters. A survey of 7,379 juveniles demonstrated the usefulness of using interdisciplinary perspectives in understanding and explaining shoplifting behavior.

The Fasb Approach To Income Determination: Is It Viable?, Gail B. Wright, Francis A. Bird

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

A question which has been debated by the accounting profession for decades is whether there exists a single set of correct rules for use in reporting 'true income' which would enable comparability in reporting for all firms to be achieved. Those who believe a 'true income' figure does exist, advance their position by attempting to reduce choices among alternatives.

Not infrequently the debate centers around the matching principle, i.e., the timing of recognition of an expense. Accounting has its basis in the accrual system. It does not necessarily convey cash inflows and outflows of the current period so much as …
