How Many Stocks Are In The S&P500?, Steven D. Dolvin Mar 2014

How Many Stocks Are In The S&P500?, Steven D. Dolvin

All Chapters

Traditionally, the answer is 500, as the index was constructed using the 500 largest companies. However, Google's upcoming stock dividend will change all this. As of April 3, 2014, Google is undergoing a 2:1 split via a stock dividend, as owners of record will receive an additional share -- but of a different nonvoting class stock. This means that there will be two Google share classes being traded. To keep the value in place, the S&P will retain both share classes, meaning there will now be 501 stocks in the S&P500.

The Status Of Women Leaders In Utah Education, Susan R. Madsen, Brian Fischer, D. Candice Backus Mar 2014

The Status Of Women Leaders In Utah Education, Susan R. Madsen, Brian Fischer, D. Candice Backus

Marketing and Strategy Faculty Publications

In September of 2013, the Center for American Progress released a report titled“ The State of Women in America: A 50- State Analysis of How Women Are Faring Across the Nation.” The report ranked Utah last of all 50 states in terms of women holding positions of decision making and leadership. Because the focus was solely on the percentage of women in elected office and private sector management positions, we determined that a more detailed look at the status of women and leadership in various sectors within the state would be useful. This is the third of four 2014 briefs, …

Cultural Accountability For Business-Practice Differences And Beyond: A Comparative Study On Bank Loan Classification Between Japan And The Usa, Kanji Kitamura

School of Business: Faculty Publications and Other Works

The aim of this interdisciplinary essay is to demonstrate locally shared senses of values (“cultural values”) as the root causes of the cross-national differences in business practice between Japan and the USA; in particular bank loan classification and its value-driven consequences. For this aim, it investigates three levels of bank lending; decision-making at an individual level, bank loan classification at an organisation level and aggregate bank loans at a national level. The essay first examines the historical debate in economic anthropology, with the focus on cultural values. The second part explores research-proven differences in individualism and collectivism. The third part …


Taken For Granted Or Taken With Gratitude? An Examination Of The Differential Effects Of Donations Of Time And Money On Consumers' Evaluation Of Corporate Philanthropy, Ryan Langan Mar 2014

Taken For Granted Or Taken With Gratitude? An Examination Of The Differential Effects Of Donations Of Time And Money On Consumers' Evaluation Of Corporate Philanthropy, Ryan Langan

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This dissertation examines the potential for two forms of corporate philanthropy, donations of time and money, to have differential effects on consumers' response to corporate giving. Drawing upon indirect-reciprocity theory I show that corporate donations of time compared to money elicit a greater desire to reciprocate on the part of consumers. It is found that the influence of corporate donations on consumers' desire to reciprocate occurs through serial mediation, whereby donations of time are perceived as being more effortful than monetary donations. This in turn leads to more altruistic motive attributions, and ultimately greater admiration towards the firm and a …

Judging A Part By The Size Of Its Whole: The Category Size Bias In Probability Judgments, Usu Jon M. Huntsman School Of Business, Aaron R. Brough, Mathew S. Isaac

Jon M. Huntsman School of Business News Collection

Consumers might be said to have a prediction addiction—they speculate about sports, politics, weather, stocks, sweepstakes, health, and relationships, to name just a few areas. What’s more, predictions often guide their decisions.For example, they may decide to carry an umbrella after considering the chance of rain, to invest after forecasting the stock market’s performance, or to marry after predicting the likelihood of marital bliss. With all this practice, one might expect consumers to be good at judging probability. However, their predictions are often wrong.
