In the past decade, evidence has shown that increase in wages was found to be relatively lower than the increase in labour productivity. While studies reveal that wages and labour productivity have significant causal relationship, they have yet to be observed by their firms’ relative sizes. This paper examines the effect of wages and global financial crisis on labour productivity of the manufacturing industries in Malaysia based on their relative sizes. The study analyses the industries by their relative sizes, that is, small industries (SIs), small and medium industries (SMIs) and large industries (LIs). Using panel data analysis with fixed effects on monthly data from Jan 2003 until August 2011, the study finds that wages have positively affected labour productivity of firms at all sizes. However, the changes in wages affect the labour productivity in smaller firms more than they do in the large firms. This may be due to the fact that there are increasingly more SMIs implementing performance-based remuneration system to remain competitive. Furthermore, as wage level of labours in LIs is generally known to be higher than those in SMIs, hence, the increase in wages of labours in the LIs may seem relatively lower than those in SMIs. The global financial crisis seems to have a positive effect on the small and medium industries but negative effect on the large industries.","PeriodicalId":243294,"journal":{"name":"International journal trade, economics and finance","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116556561","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}

More welcoming policies to attract foreign capital inflows have been a prominent component of this trend. In this study, an attempt is made to analyze the impact of foreign direct investment and remittances inflow on economic growth of Nigeria in a quest to find a reasonable answer to the question of whether FDI and remittances inflows constitute vital sources of economic growth to Nigeria. The study employed the Vector Autoregressive (VAR) approach. It was established that foreign direct investment has a positive but non-significant impact on Nigeria’s economic growth. However, it is evident from the outcome of the study that the remittances inflow has a negative though nonsignificant impact on Nigeria economic growth. The policy implication of this study is that government should build an investment-friendly environment free of insecurity and corruption, reduce the cost of doing business and put in place the mechanism to attract more capital inflows to boost domestic production. By doing this, Foreign investors will have confidence in Nigeria economy and commit more funds in form of Foreign Direct Investment in Nigeria which will enhance domestic production. Remittances inflow can then be channeled to consumption of these domestic goods and services rather than on imported goods. This will increase aggregate demand and ultimately affect output and growth in Nigeria.","PeriodicalId":243294,"journal":{"name":"International journal trade, economics and finance","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121222845","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}

This study used the structural time series model to analyze the seasonality of the accommodation demand for tourist hotels, and this method can test the stochasticity of seasonality and observe the seasonal pattern changes, which makes itself a very good way to explore the seasonality of tourism. The empirical results show that the accommodation demands for tourist hotels in all 7 areas are all obviously seasonal and stochastic. The seasonal pattern of tourist hotel accommodation demand of Taipei area, and Taoyuan, Hsinchu, and Miaoli area are similar; the pattern of Kaohsiung area and Taichung area are also similar to each other; and Hualien area, scenic area and other areas are similar in their seasonal pattern, mainly due to the difference in the structure of tourist sources. Faced with the seasonal changes, hoteliers can adopt the strategy of price differentiation, cooperate with other industries and hold events, conferences and exhibitions with the local government to expand the tourist source and increase the room occupancy rate.","PeriodicalId":243294,"journal":{"name":"International journal trade, economics and finance","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115580991","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}
