However, with the market competition becoming more and more fierce, the Baijiu industry may be impacted. Facing the potential risk, the Baijiu industry has to improve the profitability to fit the changeable market. Fenjiu Group’s micro and macro analysis results are presented in this paper as an example. Literature research method, case analysis method, and experiential summary method are taken for deeper research. Through the calculation of Fenjiu Group’s financial index, Fenjiu Group’s gross profit margin showed a small fluctuation from 2015 to 2018. Fenjiu Group’s ROTA declined from13.2% to 12.8% between 2018 and 2019, indicating the growth of profit can't match the recent expansion of Fenjiu Group's asset size. In terms of investor profitability, Fenjiu Group’s ROE grew from 11.8% to 26% between 2015 and 2019. According to the above analysis, some suggestions are put forward to the existing problems, such as brand diversification propaganda, optimizing the capital structure, broadening financial channels, and controlling the expansion of asset size. The research results of this paper hope to help Fenjiu Group improve better and enhance the business value in the future.","PeriodicalId":371105,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 International Conference on Financial Management and Economic Transition (FMET 2021)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129626393","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}

Wine as a high level of consumer goods in people's daily lives accounts for an increasing proportion. Therefore, the relationship between people's per capita income needs to be studied further. The research using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY) data mainly utilized a multiple linear regression model to create a linear relationship between alcohol behaviors and wages. It introduced a method of the instrumental variable to eliminate the endogenous problems in the model. The drinking behaviors were divided into two groups based on the number of drinks consumed per day, and to make our conclusion more reasonable, samples that have more than 4 drinks per day were dropped in the research. After fixing the model using an instrumental variable, the coefficients of the independent variables are positive and tested to be valid, which means moderate alcohol use positively impacts people's wages. Although we get the results not consistent with other related researches, our conclusion still has some practical implications. Moderate alcohol use is beneficial to the heart and cerebrovascular health, especially to the long-term overtime workers. Still, it alleviates the brain's pressure, which improves cognitive performance and increases the work's productivity. Therefore, drinking alcohol properly is a wise choice, which can keep us healthy and increase our income compared to drinking excessively.","PeriodicalId":371105,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 International Conference on Financial Management and Economic Transition (FMET 2021)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130139347","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}

Under this economic situation, the prerequisite and necessary condition to realize the new upgrading of China's economy are to realize the upgrading of China's higher education first to provide the society with talents with rich knowledge and high innovation ability.Based on the theory of human capital and economic growth-related theory, this paper reviews the relative literature on the relationship between economic growth and development of higher education and analyze the current situation about higher education in China from qualitative and quantitative perspectives through the methods like Granger causality test, the economic contribution rate and so on. The Granger causality test showed an obvious interactive relationship between higher education development and economic growth, and the degree of coordination between them showed a rising trend year by year. It was concluded that higher education and economic growth were mutually promoting: Economic development and investment in education will promote the development of education, which in turn will promote economic growth as well.","PeriodicalId":371105,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 International Conference on Financial Management and Economic Transition (FMET 2021)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131365797","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 paper aims to explain how Ripple's long-term competitiveness can make such an efficient ecosystem and promote the development of global payment. This paper demonstrates Ripple's long-term competitiveness from three perspectives. Firstly, we compared the currency Ripple (XRP) with other cryptocurrencies in terms of future value-added, remittance fees, and currency exchange methods and show that XPR's historical value is relatively stable and its future expectation is promising. Secondly, from the basic principles and characteristics of RippleNet operation, this paper discusses the security and privacy protection advantages of the RippleNet system. Finally, from the perspective of the company Ripple Labs, this paper analyzes the supporting forces behind Ripple, which will help us better understand how Ripple stands out from other cryptocurrencies. This paper suggests that based on its cross-border payment services, Ripple has a strong competitive advantage over its peers either as a cryptocurrency and a cross-border payment tool (vehicle). This study also provides a reference for Ripple to demonstrate that it has a large market space and long-term competitiveness in cross-border payment, and virtual currency investment has entered a new frontier.","PeriodicalId":371105,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 International Conference on Financial Management and Economic Transition (FMET 2021)","volume":"345 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123324330","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 paper conducted a generalized linear regression analysis of the Bitcoin price and gold price on the inflation rate, interest rate, and current account by using RStudio. Based on the United States annual data, this paper found evidence that the U.S. inflation rate, U.S. interest rate, and U.S. current account did not have significant effects on the gold price. However, the Bitcoin price was significantly affected by the U.S. inflation rate and U.S. interest rate. This implied that Bitcoin was not as stable as gold at current stage, but one possible speculation is that Bitcoin has the potential to counter inflation in the future.","PeriodicalId":371105,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2021 International Conference on Financial Management and Economic Transition (FMET 2021)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127531730","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}
