We obtained 264 responses from employees who worked at the SM Company, one of the companies in Indonesia that performed a change in the company.

Intercollegiate Athletics Marketing-Generated Revenue: Within Autonomy Football Bowl Subdivision, Alicia Romano, Jamie Riggs, Alan Morse, Yoon Tae Sung

Journal of Applied Sport Management

Intercollegiate athletic market-generating revenue (MGR) is of interest to administrators for increasing institution revenue. The driving factors of MGR (i.e., conference, facilities, and finances) need to be understood to allow target level planning for increasing MGR. Multiple linear regression was used to assess MGR on a sample of U.S. autonomy Football Bowl Subdivision institutions. Per capita attendance by designated marketing area, capacity, and contributions were shown to have a strong, quantifiable influence on MGR. By setting the levels of the facility and financial determinant variables, and adjusting for conference, the MGR may be predicted or targeted for institution revenue goals.

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This paper examines the relationship between the stock price and nominal exchange rate in Malaysia to ascertain the significance of using rubber price as a correction mechanism.

Because rubber is one of Malaysia’s main exports, using rubber price as a correction mechanism may affect the country’s economy. The results of …

Towards Establishment Of A Payment For Ecosystem Services (Pes) In Protected Areas: The Case Of Mounts Banahaw And San Cristobal In Quezon Province, Philippines1, Luisito Abueg, Julie Carl P. Ureta, Arlene B. Inocencio

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This paper examines the potential of establishing payments for ecosystem services in the Mounts Banahaw and San Cristobal Protected Landscape. The findings show that this process entails more than just determining the willingness to pay of those who are benefiting from the ecosystem services. It also requires the buy-in of potential sellers. More important is clearly defining the product, that is, what the buyers will be paying for and what the sellers will be providing, so that the ecosystem service will be sustained. In addition, identification of some third parties to mediate between buyers and sellers and to serve as …

Impulse Buying And Financial Literacy Among Public Elementary And High School Teachers In The Philippines, Melvin A. Jabar, Ma. Luisa C. Delayco

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This paper primarily interrogates the assumption that financial literacy essentially decreases impulse buying. However, this may not necessarily be the case, given that individuals navigate in different social contexts. Teachers in the Philippines are stereotypically perceived as heavy financial borrowers due to their limited income. Given their quick access to private financial loan companies, it is worthy to investigate if teachers also engage in impulse buying. The first goal of this paper is to describe the financial literacy of public-school teachers. Second, it examines the relationship between financial literacy and impulse buying. In this paper, financial literacy is operationalized in …

Investigating The Role Of Financial Sanctions In Utility Function And Their Impact On Household Behavior, Hamid Reza Izadi

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This research aims to present a DSGE model that can investigate the effect of utility changes due to the financial sanctions imposed on the dominant economy by defining different utility functions for households. The link between the real economy and financial markets stems from the countries’ need for external finance to engage in investment opportunities in each country. Each and every economy often needs foreign funding; however, restrictions can limit the access of the given country to international financial markets. The existence of a crisis in international financial markets such as international sanctions can aggravate the adverse shocks and their …

Delta-Normal Value At Risk Using Exponential Duration With Convexity For Measuring Government Bond Risk, Di Asih I Maruddani, Abdurakhman Abdurakhman

DLSU Business & Economics Review

A bond is simply a debt that promises to repay the money with interest in the future. An issuer must pay the coupon regularly and repay the face value at the maturity date. Therefore, a bond is called fixed-income security. However, as with any investment, there is always some risk involved. Two significant bond risk investments are interest rate risk and credit risk. In this paper, we want to measure interest risk, which affects bond price movements. Exponential duration with convexity (EDC) will be applied to predict an accurate estimation of bond price caused by the interest rate change. Delta-normal …

Do Animated Line Graphs Increase Risk Inferences?, Junghan Kim, Arun Lakshmanan

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

This article shows that animated display of time-varying data (e.g., stock or commodity prices) enhances risk judgments. We outline a process whereby animated display enhances the visual salience of transitions in a trajectory (i.e., successive changes in data values), which leads to transitions being utilized more to form cognitive inferences about risk. In turn, this leads to inflated risk judgments. The studies reported in this article provide converging evidence via eye tracking (Study 1), serial mediation analyses (Studies 2 and 3), and experimental manipulations of transition salience (graph type; Study 3) and utilization of transitions (global trend; Study 4 and …

Do Students Buy Attention-Grabbing Stocks? A Field Experiment, George Psaradakis

Business and Economics Honors Papers

In this paper, we look to find out whether or not student investors are drawn to “attention-grabbing” stocks. We define “attention-grabbing” stocks as those that are issued by companies with either large numbers of Twitter followers, large general marketing budgets, or both. Our theory is that the more followers that a publicly traded company has on Twitter and/or the more money the company spends on marketing and advertising, the more likely a student would be to invest in its stock.

A field experiment was conducted in which undergraduate students constructed their own virtual stock portfolios. A treatment group was given …
