Many economic research works are devoted to analysis of Input-Output table [1]-[5]. In this paper, we consider a separation of Copper production subsector from Mining of metal ores sector which is one of the 55 economic sectors of Input-Output Table of Mongolia. We examine impact of this subsector on other economic sectors using Input-Output table for 2016 and Physical Measurement Method of Cost Accounting [6]. We compute input coefficients of new extended matrix as well as inverse coefficients.","PeriodicalId":91438,"journal":{"name":"Advances in economics and business","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47627639","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 research is directed towards the emerging markets in Africa. It investigates dividend decisions in 299 companies listed in Nigeria on Nigerian stock exchange market. This paper compares dividend decisions in the pre-crisis, crisis and post-crisis periods. Six possible determinants of dividend policy were analyzed using correlation and multiple regression analysis for a period of 13 years (2002 to 2014). The companies are segregated into active and dead groups for the purpose of the analysis. This paper contributes to the current body of knowledge by giving more insights to dividend policy in the largest economy in Africa taking account of the financial crisis of 2008. Liquidity and growth opportunities are common predictors in the three periods. Results are in support of agency, pecking order and signalling theories. The predictors in the regression model explain 42% variability in dividend policy before the crisis in Nigeria but about 20% during and afterwards.","PeriodicalId":91438,"journal":{"name":"Advances in economics and business","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46983880","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 study reveals economic characteristics of this significant sector, while considering how cross border trade, production and market of this sector have experienced shifts across regions over the last decade. This study proves that Asia-Pacific region has displayed remarkable growth in terms of automotive imports and exports, and motor vehicle assembly and market over the last decade constituting a larger share of the global automotive sector.

One of the major instruments used in framing this path of economic growth is foreign direct investment. The economy of Turkey had also witnessed several economic crises and hence the liberalization reforms were introduced in early 2000, which have provided the Turkish economy a strong framework to expand in terms of foreign direct investment. In this context, the present study examines the impact of internationalization and foreign direct investment of Turkish companies. The researcher has collected the data for inward and outward FDI flows during the period 1990-2015. The researcher analyzed the trend of the FDI flows and explored the different reasons behind the rise in the amount of outward FDI. Further, the study explores the convergence of EU integration and how the internalization of Turkish companies changed the investment patterns among the multi-national enterprises in Turkey.","PeriodicalId":91438,"journal":{"name":"Advances in economics and business","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43661099","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}

It utilizes quantitative methodology, where survey questionnaires are sent to Malaysian electrical and electronics manufacturing firms selected from two directories. A total of 267 returned and useable survey questionnaires were used for data analysis consisting of descriptive analysis, PLS-SEM, and mediation effects. Results of PLS-SEM analysis found that product quality and cooperation have significant influences on customer loyalty. In contrast, trust and communication do not have significant influence on customer loyalty. Mediation effect analysis findings established that commitment significantly mediates four relationships between product quality and customer loyalty, trust and customer loyalty, cooperation and customer loyalty, and communication and customer loyalty. Two relationships between product quality and customer loyalty, and cooperation and customer loyalty are partially mediated by commitment. The other two relationships between trust and customer loyalty, and communication and customer loyalty are fully mediated by commitment. The findings have managerial implications for Malaysian electrical and electronics manufacturing industry, where customer loyalty can be developed with influences of product quality and relational elements, in which not all of them develop customer loyalty in similar way; only cooperation has direct influence on customer loyalty. Nevertheless, with the presence of mediating effects of commitment, all three relational elements can develop customer loyalty indirectly.","PeriodicalId":91438,"journal":{"name":"Advances in economics and business","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48841001","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}

In other words, we proposed an algorithm that can optimize the matching in employment in the n*m situation. We set performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions as the attributes of the NCS-based job matching system. Moreover, we tried to examine the relationship between NCS-based job matching service attributes, using intention and word-of-mouth (WOM). In addition, this study analyzed how the relationship between NCS-based job matching system service attributes and NCS-based job matching system using intention changes according to the type of service user (corporations, job seekers). The major results of this study are as follows. First, NCS-based job matching system attributes have a significant effect on using intention. Second, it was found that the intention to use the NCS-based job matching system had a positive effect on WOM. Third, NCS-based job matching system attributes on using intention differed depending on the type of service user (corporations, job seekers).","PeriodicalId":91438,"journal":{"name":"Advances in economics and business","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45670180","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}
