The Effects Of Incentives And Audits On Transfer Price Negotiations In A Deflationary Context, Sakthi Mahenthiran

Scholarship and Professional Work - Business

This laboratory experiment investigates the effects of a performance incentive scheme and financial audit threats on transfer price negotiations. Three hypotheses are developed, based on a review of transfer pricing, budget-goal setting, incentive, and auditing literatures. Experimental data are gathered over multiple periods of negotiations from forty-eight students, and are analyzed using repeated measure ANOVA. The outcome measured is firm profits.

Why Pecking Order Theory Should Be Included In Introductory Finance Courses, Thomas J. Liesz Jan 2001

Why Pecking Order Theory Should Be Included In Introductory Finance Courses, Thomas J. Liesz

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

The majority of students majoring in various business administration emphases take only one finance course (Introductory Financial Management) while completing the requirements of their degrees. A primary topic commonly covered in most introductory finance courses is capital structure, with a discussion that often culminates with a discussion of optimal capital structure. Invariably the leading textbooks present optimal capital structure within the framework of the agency cost/tax shield trade-off model that evolved from Modigliani and Miller’s capital structure irrelevance hypothesis. While this approach has solid grounding in value maximization arguments and capital market equilibrium theory, it nonetheless fails to explain several …

Advanced Information Systems: Impact On Organizational Reality, Rolf D. Dixon Jan 2001

Advanced Information Systems: Impact On Organizational Reality, Rolf D. Dixon

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

Today, with the proliferation of increasingly advanced information technologies in organizations, a significant challenge can be made to the traditional assumptions regarding the non-rationality of organizational behavior. It is the purpose of this paper to consider the effects of advanced information technologies on the spatial, structural, social, and informational processes of the organization and to suggest how this could, in fact, signal a return to the “rational” organization. This paper will consider the issue of organizational rationality in a normative manner with several propositions offered.

Which Accounting Methods For Small Construction Contractors Are Allowed For Tax Purposes? Which Is Best? A Decision Heuristic Helps Choose, Jeffrey N. Barnes, Katherine Black Jan 2001

Which Accounting Methods For Small Construction Contractors Are Allowed For Tax Purposes? Which Is Best? A Decision Heuristic Helps Choose, Jeffrey N. Barnes, Katherine Black

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

Many tax preparers still have difficulty determining and properly communicating the allowable tax accounting methods and bookkeeping procedures needed for small construction contractors, especially those having partially completed contracts at year-end. For many small construction contractors, the Internal Revenue Code is confusing and even court opinions give mixed signals as to which accounting method is permissible. This paper provides a discussion on the allowable methods of tax accounting and provides a decision heuristic to simplify the choice of allowable methods. The paper also offers suggestions about bookkeeping procedures.

Selection Methods Of Control Samples: A Comparison Of Two Matching Methodologies, Jong Hwan Yi Jan 2001

Selection Methods Of Control Samples: A Comparison Of Two Matching Methodologies, Jong Hwan Yi

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

To measure abnormal stock returns of a sample of firms in an event study, we often use matching firm adjusted returns where returns of the control firms are subtracted from the raw returns of the sample firms. In most financial studies, the control firms are selected by matching industry and size (the I/S method). That is, for each sample firm, a matching firm with the closest market capitalization within the same 3-digit Standard Industry Classification (SIC) code is selected. In this study, an alternative control firm selection method based on earnings per share (the EPS method) is compared to the …
