Through A Fractured Lens: Women Entrepreneurs And The Private Equity Negotiation Process, Frances M. Amatucci, Ethne Swartz
Through A Fractured Lens: Women Entrepreneurs And The Private Equity Negotiation Process, Frances M. Amatucci, Ethne Swartz
Department of Information Management and Business Analytics Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
Access to financial resources remains an important aspect of new venture start-up and growth strategies. While women still obtain a small amount of total private equity investment, they are increasingly involved in developing high growth ventures which may be attractive investment opportunities for venture capitalists and business angels. Contract, or term sheet, negotiation is an important stage of the investment process. Although gender-related differences in negotiation styles are well documented in other fields, they have not been examined in entrepreneurship. This research utilizes a mixed method study of gender and negotiation strategies employed during the private equity investment process.
Exploration And Exploitation: The Different Impacts Of Two Types Of Japanese Business Group Network On Firm Innovation And Global Learning, Yanli Zhang, John Cantwell
Exploration And Exploitation: The Different Impacts Of Two Types Of Japanese Business Group Network On Firm Innovation And Global Learning, Yanli Zhang, John Cantwell
Department of Management Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
This article examines how two types of Japanese business group networks impact on firm innovation and global learning. Both the general network and Japanese business group literature have emphasized the important role this kind of tightly knit and stable network plays in facilitating the innovation of firms. Yet little is known of the different effects of the two types of business groups on innovation: horizontal versus vertical. In this article, we argue that the horizontal business group network, owing to its inter-industry conglomerate structure, promotes innovation of a wider knowledge-exploration type, whereas the vertical business group network, owing to its …
Framing Online Promotions: Shipping Price Inflation And Deal Value Perceptions, Patrali Chatterjee
Framing Online Promotions: Shipping Price Inflation And Deal Value Perceptions, Patrali Chatterjee
Department of Marketing Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
Purpose: This research seeks to examine differences in perceived shipping charge inflation associated with online promotions presented as reducing base product price, reducing shipping surcharge, or reducing all-inclusive price and its impact on deal values for shipping charge skeptics and non-skeptics. Design/methodology/approach: Drawing from research on multi-component pricing and mental accounting, a laboratory experiment investigates if shipping charge skeptics differ in their perceptions of shipping charge inflation for different presentations of online promotions from non-skeptics, and if they differ in perceived deal value of economically equivalent promotions presented as reduced product price, reduced shipping charge promotion, or reduced all-inclusive price …
Innovation And Location In The Multinational Firm, John Cantwell, Yanli Zhang
Innovation And Location In The Multinational Firm, John Cantwell, Yanli Zhang
Department of Management Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
This paper provides an overview of the relationship between multinational corporations (MNCs) and local economic systems. It examines the implications of a decentralisation of innovative activity within MNCs for their interaction with local networks. It is shown that this interaction depends upon the type of cluster, whether a general centre of excellence or a specialised centre. These two principal kinds of cluster are associated with different structures of local knowledge spillovers between firms. Localised science-technology linkages offer a further category of interaction. It is shown how locational hierarchies may affect the locational strategies of MNCs when they disperse innovative activity.
Abnormal Stock Returns, For The Event Firm And Its Rivals, Following The Event Firm's Large One-Day Stock Price Drop, Susana Yu, Dean Leistikow
Abnormal Stock Returns, For The Event Firm And Its Rivals, Following The Event Firm's Large One-Day Stock Price Drop, Susana Yu, Dean Leistikow
Department of Accounting and Finance Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine intra-industry contagion and the following apparent violations of the efficient market hypothesis around large one-day price decline events in individual stocks. Design/methodology/approach – The paper examines daily stock returns around one-day price declines of 10 percent or more for event stocks and their rivals. Using techniques similar to those used in Bremer and Sweeney and Cox and Peterson, the paper includes event stocks whose prices are at least $10 per share prior to the event to reduce the possible price reversal induced by bid-ask price bounce. As is typical for …
How Lehman Brothers Used Repo 105 To Manipulate Their Financial Statements, Agatha Jeffers
How Lehman Brothers Used Repo 105 To Manipulate Their Financial Statements, Agatha Jeffers
Department of Accounting and Finance Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
The questionable accounting technique, known as Repo 105, allowed Lehman Brothers to temporarily appear healthier in the eyes of its investors, creditors and other interested parties. These material transactions had the ability to affect the decisions of prudent persons. Nevertheless, Lehman failed to disclose these transactions in the notes to their financial statements and in their filings to the SEC. In this paper, an examination is made of whether Repo 105 transactions were properly recorded and disclosed in Lehman's financial statements and whether Lehman's executives behaved ethically. To answer these questions, an examination is made of Generally Accepted Accounting Standards, …
The Influence Of Travel Experience On Mature Travelers’ Quality Of Life, Yawei Wang, Francis A. Mcguire, Bin Zhou
The Influence Of Travel Experience On Mature Travelers’ Quality Of Life, Yawei Wang, Francis A. Mcguire, Bin Zhou
Department of Hospitality and Tourism Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of past travel experience (i.e., number of trips and number of days away from home in last year), and on mature travelers’ quality of life (i.e., self-perceived health and global life satisfaction). A total number of 217 respondents (50+) in a southern state were used in this study. Path analysis (PROC CALIS in SAS) was performed to test the proposed model. An estimation of the proposed theoretical model revealed that the model fit the data. However, the model should be further examined and applied with caution.
