The descriptive analysis helped in assessing the level of economic integration among ECOWAS member states. The econometric analyses were use examine the effect of economic integration on trade facilitation as well as the role of trade facilitation and economic integration in promoting manufacturing exports among ECOWAS member states. The findings reveal the level of trade facilitation in ECOWAS is below world average. That is ECOWAS member states has higher bureaucratic processes with greater costs of exporting/importing. Furthermore, results from econometric analyses reveal economic integration can significantly help in promoting manufacturing exports among ECOWAS member states. Again, economic integration and trade facilitation can significantly influence manufacturing exports across ECOWAS member states, while manufacturing production had direct and significant impact on manufacturing exports. Some policy recommendations that would help to facilitate trade flow to improve manufacturing exports across ECOWAS member states were recommended.","PeriodicalId":37730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Information and Decision Science","volume":"115 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90555474","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 cloud console provider can either sell its subscription package to consumers independently or organize a cloud alliance with an ISP to market. As compared with the direct selling model, the cloud alliance model with full coordination can yield greater total revenue if the benefit the game developers receive from the consumer side is higher than the value the consumers receive from the developer side. However, the overall profit of the cloud alliance declines when this condition is reversed. This undesired result can be resolved by leveraging the game-streaming subscriber base to yield a moderate amount of additional revenue for the cloud console provider.","PeriodicalId":37730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Information and Decision Science","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84794148","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 condition makes many people lose their jobs and has an impact on people’s finances. This policy raises concerns in the banking industry because it will experience a liquidity crunch and cause a crisis in the banking sector. BRI Syariah Bank experienced fluctuations in the development of profits and assets as in March 2020 there was a decrease from profit which was originally 603.15 billion to 214.01 billion and increased again in the second quarter or in June 2020, which was 266.64 billion. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of operating profit, corporate governance and risk profile on the profitability of BRI Syariah Bank in 2018-2021.This type of research uses library research.

It is through marketing the goods that SMEs reach the customers, recover money used for production, and make profit in return. This study was carried out to determine the pricing policies adopted by SMEs managers in marketing consumers’ goods in Abia State, Nigeria. Two research questions and two null hypotheses guided the study. Survey research design was adopted, and the population of the study consisted of 1,809 SMEs managers in Abia State. A sample size of 328 SMEs managers was selected using Taro Yamane formula. The sampling technique was a proportionate random sampling. A structured questionnaire which was validated by three experts in the field of educationand marketing was used for data collection. Structured questionnaire titled “Utilization of Pricing Policies in Marketing Consumer Goods Questionnaire (UPP-MCGQ)”, containing 15 items was used for data collection. The reliability of the instrument was established using pilot-testing and data collected were analyzed using Cronbach Alpha formula which yielded correlation coefficients of 0.86 and 0.91 for clusters B1 and B2 respectively with an overall value of 0.89. Data collected were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and ANOVA to answer the research questions and test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that SMEs managers utilize value based pricing policies in marketing their goods to a small extent while they utilize dynamic pricing policy to a high extent. Years of experience were not significant factors on the extent SMEs managers utilize value based and dynamic pricing policies in marketing consumer goods. It was concluded that SMEs managers must ensure that their prices elicit the required demand of their products to cover business costs and make profit in the marketplace. The researcher recommended among others that, managers of SMEs should focus more on understanding customers’ value of their goods to enable them effectively set prices that will stimulate sales and generate profit.","PeriodicalId":37730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Information and Decision Science","volume":"105 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75451588","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}
