They represent the most dynamic segment of the national economy and play a pivotal role in supporting economic growth, fostering employment, and enhancing people’s livelihoods. However, despite their significant and extensive organizational structures, only a fraction of these companies have established internal control systems, and even fewer possess robust ones. Building upon this premise and considering the prevailing circumstances of SMEs, this paper undertakes an empirical analysis of monetary fund management within this sector. It delves into the operational intricacies, exploring how monetary funds should be effectively implemented to ensure their safety and integrity. Furthermore, it proposes viable strategies to enhance the circulation efficiency of monetary funds, thereby maximizing benefits for enterprises. Addressing these challenges is crucial for SME managers striving to achieve sustainable profit growth and navigate the complexities of financial management.","PeriodicalId":310426,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Business and Economic Studies","volume":"2 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140092677","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 work of auditing involves detecting existing issues, providing remedies, and consistently contributing to national governance. However, as the market economic environment undergoes continuous changes, legal systems advance, and the audit environment becomes more complex, audit risks have gradually gained prominence. The prevention of audit risks has increasingly captured the attention of audit agencies at all levels. This necessitates audit institutions to continually adapt to new challenges, comprehend risks, and exert effective control over them. This article delves into the causes of audit risks, exploring ways to effectively identify and respond to these risks within a complex and ever-changing environment.

Regional brands such as Guangming, Junlebao, and Sanyuan have engaged in staggered competition, contributing to a pattern of feudal separatism among local brands. AY Group, positioned as a significant independent player in the China dairy industry, has strategically extended its reach downstream in the supply chain, establishing the consumer brand AY Field. Despite possessing a robust advantage in self-owned ranches and delivering high-quality products, AY Field grapples with challenges related to unclear market positioning and low brand awareness among final consumers. This study employs a SWOT analysis to delve into identifying a market positioning strategy that best suits the AY Field brand. The research reveals that the current dynamics of competition in the dairy industry market are predominantly concentrated in the high-end and low-end segments, leaving a noticeable gap in the middle market. Leveraging the natural, high-quality, and competitively priced attributes of AY Field milk, the recommended market position involves supplying ambient liquid milk that aligns with the consumption habits of young individuals and office workers. This strategic positioning aims to offer high-quality products at moderate prices, addressing the specific needs of the identified consumer demographic.","PeriodicalId":310426,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Business and Economic Studies","volume":"107 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139164986","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}

However, the current establishment of green schools faces various challenges, including non-environmental building facilities, high renovation costs, low organizational management efficiency, high energy consumption, outdated office tools, and insufficient environmental awareness among teachers and students. Through thorough research and analysis, it becomes evident that digital technology can play a pivotal role in addressing these challenges and contribute to all aspects of green school establishment. The incorporation of digital thinking concepts is essential for the construction of ecologically civilized campuses and inclusive innovation. The process of digital design and transformation proves instrumental in optimizing both software and hardware facilities within the campus, thereby reducing energy consumption. Simultaneously, comprehensive digital teaching management enhances overall efficiency in management and service delivery. Innovative digital teaching and learning models emerge as transformative tools, providing new avenues to create low-carbon, green classrooms for both teachers and students. By exploring the application of digital transformation in establishing green schools and examining the resulting spillover effects, valuable insights can be gained.

This paper, based on annual data, employs the entropy weight method to construct a comprehensive index reflecting the impact of green upgrading in industrial sectors. To delve deeper, it utilizes the DEA model to measure energy efficiency and its subdivision BCC model to break down energy efficiency into technical and scale efficiency. The financial support landscape is examined from the vantage points of both direct and indirect financing. Using a multivariate time series model, this paper thoroughly investigates the influence of energy efficiency and financial support on the green upgrading of the industrial sector. The findings reveal a significant positive impact of both energy efficiency and financial support on green upgrading in industrial industries. Notably, scale efficiency emerges as the primary driver of energy efficiency. Moreover, indirect financing proves to be more effective in promoting financial support than direct financing. The empirical results retain their robustness even after substituting explanatory variables.

However, AY Field, as a self-owned brand by a supplier, faces the challenge of low product awareness among end consumers. This paper primarily concentrates on brand planning for the AY Field milk brand, with a focus on positioning the product for mid-range consumers, including students and office workers. The strategy involves the development of a new logo and packaging design, the selection of sports stars as brand ambassadors, and the implementation of innovative online sales promotions to bolster brand awareness and competitiveness.
