Our empirical analysis used the quarterly time series data over the 1994Q:1–2019Q:4 period. We used the ARDL-bound testing approach for the short- and long-run relationship. The empirical results reveal that China’s real exchange rate volatility and misalignment significantly impact China’s real exports and imports over the sample period. In the short-run, the relationship between real exchange rate misalignments and China’s exports is positive, whereas negative with imports from the United States. In the long run, the real exchange rate misalignment positively affects exports and negatively affects imports. The evidence suggests that both higher real exchange rate volatility and misalignment directly affect the relative price of goods and encourage China exports to United States.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":45011,"journal":{"name":"Transnational Corporations Review","volume":"14 4","pages":"Pages 402-417"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84185403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, 184 complete questionnaires were obtained from 250 managers of manufacturing companies located in the Rasht Industrial city during 2019–2020. Gathered data were subject to a SEM (Structural Equation Modelling) analysis, via SPSS (version 22) and LISREL (version 8.8) softwares. Conclusive findings support that innovation has a positive moderate effect on social responsibility and a strong influence on corporate performance. On the other hand, both economic and social dimensions of social responsibility have meaningful and moderate impacts on Rasht industrial enterprises’ performance. Moreover, innovation practices play an important role in improving the influence of social responsibility dimensions on corporate performance of those companies. Based on the results attained, it would be recommended that innovative manufacturing organisms engage more in CSR activities to upgrade their organisational performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":45011,"journal":{"name":"Transnational Corporations Review","volume":"14 4","pages":"Pages 438-453"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81124427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
