Focus on the superiority of bamboo instruments with the case Saung Angklung Udjo (SAU), Bandung West Java Province, Indonesia. The qualitative descriptive approach is used, that is conducting in-depth interviews and documentary studies. Primary data are collected from key informants who know the history of SAU’s journey since its establishment up to now, consisting of owner, management, staff, craftsmen, players, observers/experts, visitors and stakeholders. Secondary data are collected from documents on SAU, whether from books, journals, reports, newsletters, the Internet and other qualitative data. The objective of the research is to answer the question of how SAU management can focus on bamboo musical instrument business which originally becomes international. The results show that SAU is an effort of traditional culture organization, unique and original region can have competitive advantage so that become cultural value of a nation that can lift image of region and nation of Indonesia besides can give economic impact, giving prosperity for perpetrator and environment of surrounding society.","PeriodicalId":92484,"journal":{"name":"Business and economics journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41479023","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}

Strong advocacy for entrepreneurship development by way of creating an enabling environment for funding entrepreneurs to start own businesses and training to ensure sustainability is an international objective. This paper contrasts financial decision making orientations for credit union entrepreneur members and credit union employee members of Unitas and Stima credit unions respectively who share the same return on assets. Three objectives were pursued. First was to establish that higher entropy does not necessarily result into a higher rationality level. Secondly, the paper set out to show that a low error rate is an important factor that leads to higher rationality levels, which results to better financial performance. Finally, it sought to establish that updating rate is critical to long run financial performance. A 9-point Likert longitudinal data for 2005 and 2015 was collected and converted into probabilities. Since the probabilities are subjective, cumulative prospect theory decision weights function was used to transform them into objective probabilities, and then fitted into a multi-period Bayesian rationality model. Unitas members with less than half the potential of Stima members and a lower rationality starting point catch up with Stima members within the 10 years. Stima’s endowment of a lower updating period did not give it any advantage. The single all important factor is the updating rate, which worked in favor of Unitas credit union members. The paper recommends that entrepreneurial union members should be supported more by the government to accelerate wealth creation, hence job creation.","PeriodicalId":92484,"journal":{"name":"Business and economics journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4172/2151-6219.1000318","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47628410","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 finance manager allocates resources to horn the human resource asset; but has no way of measuring the expected output from his/her own end. This paper attempts to provide a metric for setting expectations for the human resource officer by the finance office; first by demonstrating that extrinsic motivation plays a more important role than intrinsic motivation, secondly, to show that corporate financial performance stimulus can be used to measure extrinsic motivation; and lastly, to show that activity based staffing maximizes employee output to optimally take care of high decision volume positions. Key motivation theories are revised and their components fitted around the concept of entropy from the second law of thermodynamics; information theory version. Entropy motivation theory that derives from binomial Bayesian decision model driven by geometric Brownian motion model is introduced. Subjective probability data were transformed into objective probability through cumulative prospect theory decision weights function. Two time-point longitudinal data were analysed. The results show that where low intrinsic motivation exists, strong corporate financial performance can stimulate extrinsic motivation. Total motivation obtains as a sum of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.","PeriodicalId":92484,"journal":{"name":"Business and economics journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47339480","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 authorities of the province and Industrial zone management are very interested in the evaluation of the investors' satisfaction in the industrial zones because this is an important information channel to help the province improve its investment environment and attract investors. This study analyzed and assessed the status of investment attraction policies and infrastructure characteristics of industrial zones by collecting and analyzing secondary data. In addition, the satisfaction of investors was analyzed and evaluated through data collection methods and data processing using SPSS 20.0 software. The research result shows that investors are basically satisfied with the Industrial Zones of Thai Nguyen province, especially in terms of Reliability, Assurance and Empathy of industrial zones. Some items in the scale Tangibles, Responsiveness have not yet been assessed at the satisfaction level but are Neutral level.
