Abstract:
Research demonstrates that volunteering provides many benefits for individuals and communities. However, research has not adequately addressed the potential significance of volunteering as a mechanism for low-income individuals to improve their own lives and support their communities. To account for the benefits volunteering could generate, research must shift from an emphasis on what low-income volunteers lack to an approach that uncovers the strengths and wealth present among low-income volunteers and their communities. The purpose of this article is to present a theoretically informed asset-based framework for analyzing volunteerism research. Through an examination of four nonfinancial assets—social capital, human capital, cultural capital, and political capital—we illustrate how an asset-based approach offers an opportunity to explore the ways low-income individuals could build and leverage assets through volunteering. Implications for future research that frames volunteering as an asset-building strategy are considered.

Abstract:
This paper reviews the articles of Lithuanian authors on social policy topic and assesses if the asset-based policy topic was ever explored. It briefly analyses the efficiency of current social security policy in Lithuania and social-economical state of inhabitants. It states that in order to reduce poverty and inequality, current social policy should be reformed, and the current income support (or income security) policy should be replaced by the asset-based policy which stresses the development of skills, knowledge and capabilities, promotes savings, investments and building of assets and gives everyone a possibility to become a capital owner. The paper presents results of a representative survey which was aimed to explore Lithuanian inhabitants’ opinion towards the new form of social policy: asset-based policy. It uncovers that vast majority of Lithuania's inhabitants would agree to the implementation of the asset-based policy, based on children's savings accounts.

Abstract:
Fostering a sociological imagination in students is a central goal for most introductory sociology courses and sociology departments generally, yet success is difficult to achieve. This project suggests that using elements of asset-based community development can be used in sociology classrooms to develop a sociological perspective. After introducing asset-based community development, ways of incorporating this process into the classroom are discussed. Then, t tests are used to compare students’ ability to describe the relationship between individuals and society before and after engaging in asset-based activities; the sample group is also compared to a control group who did not engage in asset mapping. Results show significant improvement in the ability to think sociologically after completing asset-mapping projects.

Abstract:
Purpose This research’s main objective is to develop an expert-based approach to rank critical asset assessment factors for health-care facilities. This approach will improve the asset management of health-care buildings. This paper aims to study and prioritize the relative importance of asset criticality factors. Design/methodology/approach The research methodology begins with a comprehensive literature review of state-of-the-art health-care facilities management, asset management tools, critical asset assessment and approaches to model techniques. Then, using the expert-based opinion and the collected data through the analytical hierarchy process approach to developing the asset assessment model contains physical, environmental, general safety and revenue loss assessment models. Findings Results showed that the general safety factors and the sub-factors of life safety and physical safety contributed to asset condition assessment. Practical implications The proposed critical asset assessment ranking will benefit health-care facility organizations by assessing their asset performance according to capital renewal needs. Originality/value This study offers a novel conceptual framework to understand and determine rank critical asset assessment factors for health-care facilities.

Abstract:
We propose a new approach, based on investment data, to determine firms’ return exposure to investment-specific technology (IST) shocks. When applied to U.S. data, we find that, in contrast to the pattern estimated from empirical IST proxies, value firms have higher exposure to IST shocks than growth firms. When applied to simulated data from existing theoretical models, our approach reveals that existing empirical findings may result from measurement errors in the IST proxies. Importantly, our simulation analysis uncovers the key role played by investment data in determining the economic mechanism through which IST shocks affect cross-sectional asset prices.

Abstract:
This paper provides an introduction to how, on the basis of concepts from fuzzy logic, a model of asset allocation can be constructed which can represent and aggregate all the relevant quantitative and qualitative features of an investment plan realistically and in this way attains comparatively good recommendations like an expert. All calculation steps are carried out in a transparent and reproducible manner. In order to clarify the approach and the advantages of the procedure, a pilot model is developed. This supports the advisor with the asset allocation, by first analysing the features of the investment goal and the market expectations and then evaluating the merits of several investment strategies as well as displaying the steps towards their evaluation in a comprehensible manner. Based on case studies, the results of the pilot model are compared with known good recommendations from an investigation of Stiftung Warentest on the quality of advice in banks.

Abstract:
Railway infrastructure providers, such as Network Rail, who owns and manages the British railway infrastructure, can improve the performance and reduce the life cycle cost of their assets through delivering effective asset management. Having the capability to use computer-based models to predict the future performance and life cycle cost of an asset group is a key enabling mechanism for implementing effective asset management. Decision makers can determine the optimum maintenance strategy and the best allocation of capital expenditure based on evidence from modelling results. This paper shows how probabilistic modelling can be used to evaluate asset management projects of the railway overhead line equipment system and undertake a life cycle cost analysis through the use of a stochastically timed high-level Petri Net. A complete modelling framework has been developed, where the components and their maintenance strategies are selected as inputs, and the Petri Net model is used to calculate outputs associated with the performance and life cycle cost of the overhead line equipment system for the corresponding components and strategies considered. This paper presents the practical use of the developed model and describes how the outputs can be used by asset managers to understand the expected system performance and cost over its life cycle. The range of outputs described are the most detailed for such models studying the overhead line equipment and other engineering systems in literature. Whilst the railway overhead line equipment system is used as an example study, the modelling framework is transferable to asset management projects for other engineering systems.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a methodology based on the transactional asset pricing approach (TAPA) and to illustrate the application of TAPA within the context of professional property valuation. Design/methodology/approach The TAPA is a novel analytical valuation methodology recasting the traditional derivations of the income approach techniques, including DCF, from a transactional perspective based on the principle of inter-temporal transactional equity, instead of the conventional investor-specific view originating from I. Fisher (1907, 1930). Findings The authors present DCF analysis as a specific case of a more general TAPA approach to valuation under the income method. This also leads to novel analytical derivations of the Direct income capitalization, Gordon, Inwood, Hoskold and Ring models. Based on the TAPA framework, the authors also research the value-enhancing effects of benchmark market volatility on the subject property value and conclude that such effects can be statistically significant depending on the DCF analysis period. Research limitations/implications The research has a direct bearing on time-variable discount rate forecasting capabilities, as it uses a time-variant structure for the discount rates. Practical implications Using the US Case-Shiller and BLS rental indices as a valuation benchmark, the paper contains an example of applying the general TAPA framework to value a notional property under a TAPA’s DCF version. Such property valuations can be easily replicated in practice – especially in the context of equitable/fair value determination under the International Valuation Standards Council valuation standards. Social implications TAPA is a deductive principles-based theory of asset valuation especially fit for the transactional and illiquid asset valuation contexts – thus enabling a more efficient pricing for such assets in a sense of reflecting the transactional interests of the parties more closely than achievable under the conventional valuation methods. Originality/value TAPA is an original filiation of research with roots going as far back as Aristotelian Catallactics. It contains analytical formalizations of certain transactional equity principles.

Abstract:
Asset based community development (ABCD) is a shift and direct contrast to the conversional need-based community development (NBD). It focuses on community asset as useful tool to stir up the development of a community. It is concerned with what is available in the community that could be used to development as against dependence on outsiders or expert for development. The different types of asset in communities were enumerated. The benefits and criticisms against the approach were also highlighted. A model to guide the application of the approach was designed. The paper is of the view that every development intervention in the nation should have its root on asset-based development approach.

Abstract:
Abstract In the case of a high-valuable asset, the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) phase requires heavy charges and more efforts than the installation (construction) phase, because it has long usage life and any accident of an asset during this period causes catastrophic damage to an industry. Recently, with the advent of emerging Information Communication Technologies (ICTs), we can get the visibility of asset status information during its usage period. It gives us new challenging issues for improving the efficiency of asset operations. One issue is to implement the Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) approach that makes a diagnosis of the asset status based on wire or wireless monitored data, predicts the assets abnormality, and executes suitable maintenance actions such as repair and replacement before serious problems happen. In this study, we have addressed several aspects of CBM approach: definition, related international standards, procedure, and techniques with the introduction of some relevant case studies that we have carried out.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTAsset-based thinking is increasingly prevalent in health policy and is to be found also in discourses on social care. This article explores and critiques the applicability of asset-based approaches to social care for older people, using Carol Bacchi's analytical framework to consider developments in the United Kingdom especially. The problem construction, assumptions and suggested solutions underpinning an asset-based approach are considered in turn. The paper draws two major conclusions. The first is that, while it has potential application to the field, the key assumptions and objectives of the asset-based approach do not hold well for social care and therefore adopting the approach carries risks. The paper concludes, secondly, that an asset-based approach is ‘over-promised’ in the sense of being insufficiently theorised and lacking empirical evidence. A number of suggestions are made for greater critical interrogation, improved empirical evidence and closer scrutiny of the policy ‘solutions’ associated with assets-related thinking.

Abstract:
This paper presents a risk-based maintenance decision making modeling methodology for railway asset maintenance optimization, which takes risk and maintenance cost objectives into consideration in the decision making process. A bottom-up risk analysis approach has been developed by using fuzzy reasoning approach (FRA) and fuzzy-analytical hierarchy process (Fuzzy-AHP) to produce a risk model. A total cost model has also been developed to estimate repair/renewal, maintenance and performance review costs. A risk-based maintenance decision making support model has then been developed by integrating the risk model with cost model in which multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques are employed to process the proposed risk-based maintenance decision making support model. An illustrative example on a section of a track system maintenance decision selection is used to demonstrate the application of the proposed methodology. The results show that by using the proposed methodology the qualitative and quantitative risk data and information with maintenance costs associated with railway assets can be evaluated efficiently and effectively, which provide very useful information to railway engineers, managers, and decision makers.

Pandemic is virtually unprecedented. Churches and mission works alike are forced to think differently on how they do their respective work. With the restrictions of gathering in big groups and the economic crisis crippled the market, the mission works also suffers in what already difficult environment in Indonesia. The voices of restlessness seeing how oblivious we are in the state complacencies are finally being heard in the time of crisis, namely, pandemic. This is the time we need to listen to the Spirit and Truth to understand the sign time. In the midst of this difficult time missions are not required to look elsewhere but surrounding. It is a pathway to discover, not invent, the God given assets in next door neighbor, and that’s what Asset Based Approach (ABA) is all about, contributing to the self-sustaining mission in the long run.

Abstract:
Unraveling meaningful pattern form the video offers a solution to many real-world problems, especially surveillance and security. Detecting and tracking an object under the area of video surveillance, not only automates the security but also leverages smart nature of the buildings. The objective of the manuscript is to detect and track assets inside the building using vision system. In this manuscript, the strategies involved in asset detection and tracking are discussed with their pros and cons. In addition to it, a novel approach has been proposed that detects and tracks the object of interest across all the frames using correlation coefficient. The proposed approach is said to be significant since the user has an option to select the object of interest from any two frames in the video and correlation coefficient is calculated for the region of interest. Based on the arrived correlation coefficient the object of interest is tracked across the rest of the frames. Experimentation is carried out using the 10 videos acquired from IP camera inside the building.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to present a comprehensive view of the assets recognition criteria by providing a coherent set of pre-measurement themes that should be taken into consideration to be a candidate asset. Design/methodology/approach This paper is a conceptual review paper. Findings This synthesis review results in seven themes; the social constructionist nature of the conceptual framework (CF), the nature of assets, the changing nature of asset recognition, asset measurement bases, entity-specific vs market-specific recognition, the economic resource comprising “rights”, and finally, the role of “separability” in asset recognition. Originality/value With the increasing importance of internally created assets and their implications on the financial position of the business entity, and with coinciding of revisiting the CF for financial reporting (at the time of writing this paper), this paper shows a synthesis and comprehensive themes of asset-based recognition criteria for tangible and intangibles assets.

Abstract:
Korupsi yang merupakan masalah global telah menyebabkan tingginya kerugian keuangan dan perekonomian negara di Indonesia. United Nation Convention Against Corruption telah mencanangkan rekomendasi kepada negara-negara untuk membuat pengaturan mengenai Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture sebagai upaya untuk mengembalikan kerugian negara secara maksimal. Kerugian negara yang telah kembali saat ini masih tidak sebanding dengan kerugian negara yang secara nyata ada akibat korupsi. Urgensi ini lah yang menghadirkan konsep perlunya pengaturan mengenai Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture di Indonesia. Penelitian yang digunakan bersifat yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan (statute approach) dan pendekatan konseptual (conceptual approach). Peraturan perundang-undangan di Indonesia sejatinya telah mengadopsi konsep Non-Conviction Based Asset Forfeiture, namun tidak memenuhi secara maksimal dasar filosofis adanya konsep tersebut, yaitu mengembalikan kerugian negara akibat korupsi secara maksimal dan cepat dengan mekanisme peradilan perdata. Sehingga, undang-undang yang mengatur mengenai perampasan aset perlu dibuat tersendiri dan diundangkan untuk mengakomodasi upaya pengembalian kerugian negara akibat korupsi secara maksimal.

Abstract:
An electricity tolling agreement (or, tolling contact) is a supply contract in which the buyer reserves the right to take the output of an underlying electricity generation asset by paying a predetermined premium to the asset owner. We propose a real options approach to value a tolling contract incorporating operational characteristics of the generation asset and contractual constraints. Dynamic programming and value function approximation by Monte Carlo based least-squares regression are employed to solve the valuation problem. The effects of different electricity price assumptions on the valuation of tolling contracts are examined through numerical examples.

Abstract. Urbanization is the access to modernization and development around the world. Nowadays, with the current technology development, smart cities are seen as a new approach in urban management and development. 3D asset management is one of the components to support the idea of smart city. 3D asset management is important to assist the monitoring and maintenance of asset in smart city by enabling visualization of 3D models, locating and query in real-time based. In Malaysia, the government is looking seriously at the issues of asset management and maintenance. This is happened because asset management in present day is already moving towards the revolution of smart city but still considered as time consuming and open to human errors as the asset managers or authorities still considering on paper-dependent and manual inspection practise. In the past few years, Malaysia has developing an electronic-based asset management, MySPATA that is made prior to the inefficiency on the asset management system. MySPATA has been introduced as electronic based asset management solution for immovable assets that belong to various department and ministries. However, the creation of MySPATA is considered as bland and time-consuming as its application only storing and displaying asset information. Thus, the implementation of 3D asset management is required for a better and effective management. In this paper, we proposed the conceptual model of 3D asset management by incorporating with the new CityGML standard. The proposed 3D asset management is based on MySPATA module. CityGML plays an important role in demonstrating the 3D asset management for modelling, string and exchanging city models in the international standard. So, the 3D asset management is developed based on MySPATA module that integrated with new CityGML concept. Therefore, with this new approach and concept, the managing of assets will lead for better management and maintenance.

Abstract:
SYNOPSIS Traditional depreciation methods used by financial accounting as well as the capacity-based depreciation method recommended by managerial accounting literature assume that assets either lose value due to obsolescence or wear and tear. Recognizing that many assets lose value due to both obsolescence and use, Balakrishnan, Sivaramakrishnan, and Sunder, in the September 2004 issue of Accounting Horizons, propose a granularity framework that creates a nonlinear allocation by simultaneously considering an asset's use-based and time-based losses. However, their approach over-allocates and assigns all resource costs to periods before its usefulness has expired. We introduce several adjustments to the Balakrishnan et al. (2004) methodology with the notion of “flexibility value” and a partitioning of the cost of the acquired resources into a time-based and use-based component that avoids any over-allocation of resource costs. This approach also permits a further partitioning of those expired costs into costs that should be allocated to production or products and costs that should be allocated to periods as cost of unused or idle capacity—that is, to produce more accurate product costs for pricing and planning purposes. Finally, we offer a real-world example for partitioning a resource's acquisition cost into a use-based component and a time-based component.

Abstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to study the interplay of fiscal policy and asset prices in a time-varying fashion. Design/methodology/approach – Using South African data since 1966, the authors are able to study the dynamic shocks of both fiscal policy and asset prices on asset prices and fiscal policy based on a time-varying parameter vector autoregressive (TVP-VAR) model. This enables the authors to isolate specific periods in time to understand the size and sign of the shocks. Findings – The results seem to suggest that at least two regimes exist in which expansionary fiscal policy affected asset prices. From the 1970s until 1990, fiscal expansions were associated with declining house and slightly increased stock prices. The majority of the first decade of 2000 had asset prices increasing when fiscal policy expanded. On the other hand, increasing asset prices reduced deficits for the majority of the sample period, while the recent financial crises had a marked change on the way asset prices affect fiscal policy. Originality/value – This is the first attempt in the literature of fiscal policy and asset prices to use a TVP-VAR model to not only analyse the impact of fiscal policy on asset prices, but also the feedback from asset prices to fiscal policy over time.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how asset-based community development (ABCD) can be used to build inclusive, connected communities that intentionally value the contribution of older citizens. Design/methodology/approach – ABCD was used as an approach to enable older people to transform their neighbourhood and make them a better place to live for all ages. The paper describes this approach and goes on to illustrate how it has been applied in three neighbourhoods using case studies. Findings – The case studies show that by using ABCD, connections can be made between people, associations/clubs, businesses and services, to achieve the aspirations the citizens have for their neighbourhood. The contribution of older citizens to community life is valued and the risk of isolation and loneliness reduced. Originality/value – The three case studies presented in this paper are unique in that they have applied ABCD with older people taking on the role of community builders and connectors.
