Also, expected data between different time periods would have impacts on the economy and are taken into account. Since the 2000s, Japan has experienced a serious recession and low or zero interest rates policy has been conducted, so such a special situation might have influence on the economy. The empirical results show that past forecast error data of GDP plays a significant role on macro economy in Japan, however, impacts on the economy are not found during a longer period, over a quarter. Furthermore, forecast data is not crucial to the economy.","PeriodicalId":130241,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Financial Studies","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122243797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We do this in order to provide some direction to young families looking to purchase their first home. Our data encompasses each state’s most populated city within the United States. This study reveals that as the monthly rental price of a comparable home (especially condos) increases, and/or as the price-to-rent ratio increases, so does the listing price of a two bedroom home. Therefore, a frugal home buyer should keep an eye on both comparable rental prices, and on the price-to-rent ratio within their city of interest. When rental prices drop, or when the price-to-rent ratio decreases, that is when a homebuyer should begin to consider the purchase of a two-bedroom home.","PeriodicalId":130241,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Financial Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122759053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using structural Vector Autoregressive Model (SVAR), E(GARCH) and Granger Causality test results shows that oil price volatility has marginal impact on growth rate of GDP in both countries. Both impulse response function and variance decomposition shows that shocks to exchange rate from oil price volatility was the highest i.e. exchange rate appreciates when oil price increases and depreciates when oil price reduces. The Granger causality test shows that the direction of causality between oil price volatility and macroeconomic variables in Nigeria was bi-directional while the relationship in Angola was unidirectional. Hence, both countries (Angola and Nigeria) should improve upon the refining capacity of their crude oil.

Developments in the oil price literature however, suggest that effect oil price shock on macroeconomic variables depends on the source of the price shock. Hence, we examin the impact of oil price shocks on Ghana's external balance considering the source of the price shock. We employ a two-stage estimation which involved SVAR and ARDL. Results reveal that oil demand shocks tend to have a positive long run effect on external balance and oil market specific demand shock was also found to negative long run effect. Whereas oil supply shock was found to have a negative impact on trade balance and current account balance, its effect on capital account balance was positive. The implication of this result is that output in industrial commodities must be expanded following an oil price shock that is as a result of oil demand shock, since oil demand shock is usually an indication of expansion in global economic activities and leads increased demand for such commodities.","PeriodicalId":130241,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Financial Studies","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116587741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first is to determine the impact of TQM dimensions of a medical care system (quality system, quality leadership, medical and sanitary staff, relationship with patient, relationships with suppliers, and continuous improvement) on the hospital competitive advantage (innovation, competitive benchmarking) in sample Jordanian hospitals. The second is to explore the moderating effect of two basic organizational characteristics: the size and the age of a hospital, on the relationship between TQM dimensions and competitive advantage. Our finding indicates that five TQM dimensions (QS, QL, RP, RS, and CI) have a positive impact on hospital innovation and reputation. This result is compatible with the main findings of many previous field studies. (Prajogo and suhal, 2003; Hung et al., 2010; Abrunhosa and Sa, 2008; Bon and Mustafa, 2013, Silva et al., 2014). This result could be attributed to a continuous improvement of hospital services quality (the sixth of the main dimensions of TQM). Continuous improvement (CI) is synonymous to innovation because both imply changes and modifications to health service.","PeriodicalId":130241,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Financial Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126874994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

South Asian LDCs continue to treat FDI inflow as a key development factor, and continue to adopt FDI-friendly policies, though only a few studies were conducted for testing the impact of FDI in the context of this region. This study extends the previous empirical studies on south Asian LDCs by developing a new framework specifying direct and spill-over effects of FDI, and providing evidence from panel data analysis for the period 1980-2014. The results show positive effect of FDI for both direct and externalities effect.

The failure rate was greater when their loan loss allowances and past due accounts were high.
