This study applies a quantitative approach with empirical evidence obtained from the entire employees of PT. Garuda Totalindo Jaya, a family-owned supplier of spare parts company as the case study. For the analysis technique, this study uses Partial Lcast Square (PLS) Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) as a program to run the collected data from 71 respondents during the period of July 2019. The findings of the study show that servant leadership has positive impact on employee loyalty and employee satisfaction; employee satisfaction has a positive impact on employee loyalty; and employee loyalty has a positive impact de employee performance. This study expands the knowledge on human resources in the context of family business in Indonesia. It should be beneficial for both the reseller and also the company itself. Moreover, it can give another exposure of the future research to study more variables in leadership theory. Keyword.

These lawsuits are typically grounded in professional negligence, negligent misrepresentation, fraud, aiding and abetting fraud, or federal securities fraud. The PCAOB recently promulgated AS 2401, “Consideration of Fraud in a Financial Statement Audit,” which contains fraud-related Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) applicable to audits of publicly-traded entities. An auditor’s failure to comply with GAAS may be evidence of professional negligence. U.S. states are divided as to whether an auditor’s averment of compliance with GAAS in an audit report is a statement of opinion or a statement of fact. An auditor’s failure to investigate evidence indicating potential fraud is one factor used to determine an auditor’s legal liability. An auditor may be able to use the doctrine of in pari delicto as a defense if the plaintiff is also a wrongdoer.","PeriodicalId":44545,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business","volume":"1 1","pages":"19-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48471858","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}

A multi-graph integrated supply network was designed to meet real-world situations. Minimizing total cost and minimizing delivery time are considered as the objective functions. Since the considered problem is np-hard and the presented mathematical model is very complex and highly constrained, an innovative non-dominated ranked genetic algorithm (NRGA) called M-NRGA is developed to solve the real word problems. Three different selection procedures were implemented to improve the quality and diversity of solutions in the Pareto-front resulted from M-NRGA. Several numerical examples and a case study are solved to validate the model and performance evaluation of the solution algorithm. Four different performance metrics are implemented for performance evaluation of the solution algorithm. The quality of resulted solutions, the diversity of the solutions in the Pareto front are calculated for evaluation. The results are compared with two other meta-heuristic algorithms.","PeriodicalId":44545,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business","volume":"8 1","pages":"58-86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70451182","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 findings have revealed that better quality management leads to better asset quality. Banks with above average managerial ability can reduce NPA significantly. The bank managers should focus on their role in controlling problem loans of banks and should implement more efficient monitoring and supervision process for loan portfolios. The policy makers should pay attention towards the managerial ability of banks and stress on enhancing the quality of management. Also, investors may take note of the banks that are showing good management quality because such banks can be a profitable investment avenue.","PeriodicalId":44545,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business","volume":"8 1","pages":"38-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70451508","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}

By analyzing market price fluctuations, we can achieve valuable insight regarding future trends. This research proposes a novel method for prediction using pattern analysis and classification. For the first part of the research, a trend analysis algorithm, Elliot wave theory, is used to classify price patterns for DJIA, S&P500, and NASDAQ into three categories: LONG, SHORT, and HOLD. After labeling patterns, classification learning algorithms including decision tree, naïve Bayes, and support vector machine (SVM) are used to learn from the patterns and make a prediction for the future. The algorithm is implemented during the market crashes of May 2010 and August 2015, and the obtained results show that it correctly identifies the market volatility by issuing HOLD and SHORT signals during those crashes.","PeriodicalId":44545,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business","volume":"8 1","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70451576","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}

Shari’ah governance for IBIs is directed and controlled by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) with the assistance of its Shari’ah Advisory Committee (SAC) and practiced by Shari’ah boards in IBIs with the aid of other organs of the organization. Applying a descriptive methodology, the research has investigated the current practice of Shari’ah governance depending on the regulatory guidelines and standards issued by the SBP and the literature on the topic. The research has discovered that Shari’ah governance of IBIs in Pakistan has been formulated and implemented significantly by SBP but at the industry level, the composition and functions of Shari’ah boards require some regulatory enhancements in order to safeguard the credibility and marketability of Shari’ah governance of IBIs. The research suggests that Shari’ah boards must have additional members qualified for the position and their functions should be comprehensive as well as their performance should be assessed so it could cater the business needs of IBIs.","PeriodicalId":44545,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67595581","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}

Men go to Foot Locker locations for shoes and apparel, but their outfit is still not complete since it lacks one necessity-jewelry. Men mostly get their jewelry online or from major department stores. What if Foot Locker could fill in that void? This article analyzes Foot Locker relative to the men's accessories market. Jewelry is the oldest way of expression and combined with sneakers, it could be Foot Locker’s ticket to growth and continued success. We will discuss the possibility of Foot Locker starting their jewelry product extension that will be targeting their already known male demographic. Through the application of market research, creating an assortment plan, and global market research it is hypothesized that Jewelry by Foot Locker could become a great addition to the Foot Locker brand.
