Drawing on the corporate behavioral theory and prospect theory, we examine a combination of dual impact mechanisms of DT on business model innovation, emphasizing the moderating role of aspiration performance gaps (APGs). Using a sample of A-share listed firms in China from 2013 to 2022, we show the dark sides of DT and disclose that DT has an inverted U-shaped relationship with business model innovation. Notably, negative APGs exert a stronger moderating effect than positive APGs, accelerating the attainment of peak business model innovation at a lower degree of DT. We also highlight that the inverted U-shaped relationship shows a lower turning point and a larger opening in the Eastern region compared with that in the whole region; large firms tend to experience the shift from the “bright sides” to the “dark sides” earlier than SMEs. This study clarifies the intrinsic mechanisms between DT and business model innovation, offering practical guidance to avoid the pain points of DT and achieve business model innovation.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":18186,"journal":{"name":"Managerial and Decision Economics","volume":"46 5","pages":"3250-3265"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144214210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The manufacturer collects used products from customers, before choosing the product's selling format from the reseller only format, the marketplace only format, and both the reseller and marketplace formats. For each format, the optimal decisions (recovery rate, quantity, and price) are first obtained. Notably, we find that the marketplace format induces the manufacturer to improve the recovery rate. Furthermore, our results indicate that the manufacturer's choice of selling format depends on the saved cost of manufacturing a product using the collected products and the value fraction of customer preference for the marketplace relative to the reseller format. Specifically, if the value fraction is smaller but the saved cost is larger, using both the reseller and marketplace formats is preferred. And, we find that when the manufacturer changes from the reseller only format to both the reseller and marketplace formats, the selling price of the reseller platform decreases. Besides, we make some extensions to show the robustness of our assumptions and provide further guidelines for practitioners in the appendix.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":18186,"journal":{"name":"Managerial and Decision Economics","volume":"46 4","pages":"2448-2467"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143944585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While there has been a notable development of interest among scholars regarding the nexus between fiscal policy and income inequality, the empirical scrutiny on the contributing role of fiscal policy and institutional quality remains scant in the literature. The present study complements the existing literature by investigating the tripartite nexus between fiscal policy, institutional quality, and income inequality in SSA, which has received no empirical attention in the literature. This study utilizes an advanced econometric technique, the cross-sectional autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL) approach, which addresses cross-sectional dependency and heterogeneity issues for the panel dataset during 1990–2015. The empirical results demonstrate that economic growth, population growth, and government tax exacerbate income inequality, whereas education, government expenditure, and institutional quality metrics mitigate income inequality in SSA countries in the short and long run. The findings also indicate that the performance of institutional quality settings in SSA is significant for fostering efficient fiscal policy, thus improving equitable income distribution. These findings offer substantial, valuable insights and policy implications for policymakers in SSA, which may inform the design and formulation of sustainable development strategies to achieve equitable income distribution.</p>","PeriodicalId":18186,"journal":{"name":"Managerial and Decision Economics","volume":"46 5","pages":"3172-3188"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/mde.4517","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144213914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, challenges remain in selecting the most suitable live-streaming sales model. Additionally, it is also worth paying attention to whether the streamer chooses to sign with multi-channel network (MCN) institutions. Based on this, we have studied three live streaming sales methods: manufacturer-exclusive live streaming, unsigned streamer live streaming, and signed streamer live streaming. Firstly, the supply chain system involving the manufacturer, streamer, MCN institution, and live-streaming platform was constructed. Secondly, equilibrium results were obtained under different methods, and an analysis was conducted on the strategic choices and preferences of various parties regarding live-streaming sales methods. Finally, we further consider the manufacturer's strategy choices when facing streamers with different traffic levels and discuss the pure commission model in this research. The main findings are as follows: (i) The key to achieving the win-win situation for the manufacturer and streamer lies in the slot fee compensation coefficient, the sharing ratio charged by the MCN institution, and the streamer's salary. (ii) The MCN institution should appropriately reduce the sharing ratio to achieve cooperation with the manufacturer and streamer. (iii) The manufacturer will opt for the pure commission model only when the additional commission in this model is lower than the slot fee in the traditional commission model.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":18186,"journal":{"name":"Managerial and Decision Economics","volume":"46 4","pages":"2540-2561"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143944616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
