Abstract:
Abstract Recent research about nonprofit rationalization (especially in China) tended to focus on “net” effect explained by a particular theory, and thereby ignored the combinatory effects of different mechanisms in specific environments. In this article, echoing from the configurational perspective, we used csQCA to explore the potential combination of different mechanisms that may shape the formation of nonprofit rationalization. Through the analysis of 14 cases from three cities of Zhejiang Province in Eastern China, we found that rationalization of a nonprofit requires its leaders/important members to have certain career experience when it receives the corporate giving; the results also indicate that rationalization requires leaders/important members to have corporate work experience when it receives corporate giving, despite the absence of government support and competition.

Abstract:
The article highlights the results of studying and forecasting the innovative potential of personnel, which, when a number of conditions are met, is embodied in innovative activity characterized by the rates of rationalization efforts. Russian Railways, JSC is one of the first companies to develop a regulatory framework arranging the innovative activities and relations arising in the course of development and use of rationalization proposals, as well as formalizing the innovative activities of personnel, whose activity served as a factual basis of the research. There have been emphasized the significant components of the employees’ innovation activity, the development of which is the prerogative of the company. The purposeful activity of Russian Railways, JSC in training the employees for inclusion in the process of generating proposals was noted. The dynamics of the innovative proposals and their authors is analyzed. The change in the obtained economic effect per one innovative proposal has been investigated. Modeling the dependence of the used rationalization proposals on the number of authors who submitted proposals has been carried out. The assessment of the accuracy and adequacy of the constructed regression equation is given, the absence of cointegration of the considered time series is shown, which gives grounds to use the constructed model of dependence of indicators of the innovative potential of the company’s personnel for making forecasts. Point and interval forecasting of the factor attribute of the predictive model of the number of authors who submitted rationalization proposals was performed using the linear trend equation, the quality level of which as a whole, as well as the statistical significance of the equation parameters were assessed using Fisherʼs F-test and Studentʼs t-test. There has been proved the significance of forecasting the indicators of rationalization activity as indicators of the innovative activity of personnel in making managerial decisions by the company in relation to its intensification is shown; substantiated the need to take into account the structural and infrastructural components in the construction of predictive models.

Abstract:
This study aims to analyze the effect of the fraud pentagon theory consisting of external pressure, effective monitoring, rationalization, capability, and arrogance on fraudulent financial reporting. This study uses the F-score model to see the potential for fraudulent financial reporting. The data used in this study are secondary data from the company's annual reports. The population of this research is state-owned companies listed on the IDX (Indonesia Stock Exchange) during 2015-2019. The sampling technique used purposive sampling so that the sample obtained is 180 samples. The analysis technique used is logistic regression analysis with S.P.S.S. versions 20.0. The findings show that external pressure and rationalization have a significant effect on fraudulent financial reporting. Meanwhile, effective monitoring, capability, and arrogance have no considerable impact on fraudulent financial reporting. The results of this study indicate the occurrence of fraudulent financial reporting in state-owned companies listed on the IDX if the related state-owned companies experience external pressure and have rationalizations to commit fraud.

Abstract:
Purpose Although managers have struggled with SKU proliferation for decades, research has provided inconsistent guidance, and the cross-functional and cross-firm aspects of the problem were not considered. The purpose of this paper is to explore the factors that favor successful and sustainable SKU rationalization. Design/methodology/approach A single case study was used to investigate the implementation of an SKU rationalization project by a national restaurant chain in collaboration with its food distributor. Qualitative data analysis techniques were used to understand managers’ perceptions about the SKU rationalization problem and the financial results that were achieved. Findings The findings include seven propositions that begin to formalize theory for SKU rationalization. Cross-functional involvement was both a challenge and a critical success factor, and the supplier was an important resource for managing product variety and complexity. Research limitations/implications Seven propositions are provided that increase the likelihood of successfully dealing with SKU proliferation. Practical implications SKU proliferation increases supply chain complexity and leads to higher costs. The research reports on an SKU rationalization project that saved a company and its supplier $6.7m. Originality/value A previously unexplored theoretical perspective on SKU rationalization was employed that emphasizes cross-functional alignment, buyer–supplier relationships and the impact on financial performance of a firm.

Abstract The paper proposes an intertemporal equilibrium model of vintage capital and monopolistic competition. Reflecting a tradeoff between the number and capacity of new machines, investment may be extensive or intensive. External gains from specialization and rationalization result in distorted investment decisions. The paper compares the effectiveness of a general investment tax credit with a start-up subsidy that shifts the direction of investment towards a more extensive form. An optimal policy of investment promotion is derived.

Abstract:
The use of imperative sentences is very important especially in attracting customers for any business. Especially for the business in the tourism industry how to attract customers is very important. That is why this research is very important to be conducted therefore the people who have I have businesses in the tourism industries know how to attract people using the imperative sentences in their website. The research will divide the imperative sentences into rationalization, identification, giving advice, confirmation, compensation, projection, and a replacement found on the website of the hotels and resorts in the village of Kenderan. It is found out that the hotels and resorts in the Village use these sentences to attract more visitors to stay in their hotel or resort. So it is suggested that the business owner, especially the owner of the hotels and feel like in this village. Keep using imperative sentences on the other website to attract more customers. For example, the technique of rationalization is very useful to attract more customers because the customer feels that they can feel or they image in the situation that they will have if they stay in the resort.

Abstract:
Purpose: This study aims to examine the dimensions of the fraud triangle to explain academic cheating behavior during online learning. Theoretical Framework: The theory that examines the causes of fraud is the fraud triangle theory. This theory was first put forward by Edwin Sutherland, who coined the term white-color crime, and Donald Cressey, who was a student of Sutherland's in a doctoral program in the 1940s and author of Other People Money: A Study in the Social Psychology of Embezzlement. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses multiple regression analysis with the number of samples of this study are 73 accounting students at the Indonesian Christian University in Maluku who have passed auditing courses and business and professional ethics. Data were collected using a survey method. Findings: The results of this study indicate that partial pressure and opportunity affect academic cheating, while rationalization does not affect academic cheating. This study also shows that simultaneously academic fraud is determined by the dimensions of the fraud triangle, namely pressure, opportunity, and rationalization. Research, Practical & Social Implications: The implication of this research is to provide useful input to institutions, especially the UKIM Faculty of Economics and Business, to make online learning standards. Also, the teaching staff as input in the teaching and learning process pays attention that pressure, opportunity, and rationalization are important to determine student behavior in academic fraud. Originality/Value: The results of this research indicate that rationalization does not influence academic fraud behaviors. Rationalization is self-justification or the wrong reasons for wrong behavior. This is due to the awareness of the perpetrators of academic fraud that the fraud committed is an act that is not commendable, so guilt arises when committing academic fraud. It does not support the fraud triangle theory which states that rationalization encourages fraud.

Abstract:

Prompted by frequent media reports of school fraud and a lack of relevant K-12 literature, this research study was designed to investigate current fraud prevention practices in public school districts in New York State. Using a "fraud triangle" model, an analysis of existing legislation and professional practice guidelines reveals that an integral element is being overlooked in current fraud prevention efforts, namely employee attitudes (more formally rationalization).

In an effort to fill this gap, management and accounting literature is used to identify ten specific practices associated with a decreased likelihood of fraud rationalization in the business setting. Primary research is then used to ascertain the extent to which these business practices have been implemented in New York State public schools. HLM is used to examine the nature of the relationship between the presence of these practices within a school district and employee attitudes about rationalization, as a proxy measure of fraud risk.

Data concerning both district practices and employee attitudes about fraud were collected using an online survey of 938 employees from 56 randomly selected K-12 school districts in New York State. Findings reveal low or non-existent levels of district implementation for eight of the ten suggested fraud prevention strategies. However, where strategies have been implemented, employees are less likely to report rationalization about fraud. (As the number of strategies increases, rationalization tends to decrease.) The effect of individual strategies is examined. Several district and employee demographic factors are also found to have mitigating effects.

Based on the results of this research and analysis, specific recommendations are presented in an attempt to improve school district fraud prevention efforts. The analysis also suggests areas where follow-up research studies are warranted in light of this new base-line data.

Abstract:
Background: The world faces a consumption crisis. The fashion industry in particular is a branch in which excessive consumption patterns are present. Consumers have intentions to consume products that are more sustainable but often do not purchase accordingly; this is commonly called the CSR-consumer paradox. Also on the supply side, many fair fashion retailers have great and rigor Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts, but often face challenges along the supply chain. This can lead to a gap between organizations’ CSR and sustainability intentions and practices possible.  Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is threefold. Firstly, it attempts to shed light on how organizational members approach their company’s CSR and sustainability notions and practices and how they relate to it. Secondly, the study aims to investigate other related areas where organizational members’ private cognitions are not congruent with their company’s notion. Thirdly, organizational members’ strategies to handle such incongruent cognitions and potential conflicts will be explored.  Theoretical Framework and Method: To gain a fuller understanding of the research problem this thesis will draw on qualitative data from semi-structured interviews and use Festinger’s (1957) Cognitive Dissonance Theory (CDT) as a theoretical lens Findings and Conclusions: The findings show that organizational members display a high fit between private cognitions and their companies’ understanding of sustainability and CSR and actively seek such companies. However, in terms of sustainable consumption levels and compromises on sustainability, cognitions conflict. They can reconcile this conflict with a variety of strategies. The organizational members’ conflict in relation to sustainability practices and consumption levels can be seen as the counterpart to the CSR-consumer paradox in an organizational context. Thus, we term this phenomenon the "CSR- Organizational Paradox”.
Hintergrund: Die Welt steckt in einer Konsumkrise und v.a. in der Modeindustrie gibt es exzessives Konsumverhalten. Konsumenten haben die Absicht nachhaltige Produkte zu konsumieren, aber kaufen oft nicht entsprechend ein; dies wird gemeinhin als das ‘CSR-consumer paradox’ bezeichnet. Auch auf der Unternehmensseite zeigen viele Einzelhändler für nachhaltige Mode ernsthafte Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Bemühungen, aber stehen dabei oft vor vielen Herausforderungen entlang der gesamten Lieferkette. Dies kann dazu führen, dass eine Lücke zwischen den eigentlichen Absichten und den tatsächlichen Praktiken eines Unternehmens im Bereich CSR und Nachhaltigkeit entsteht.  Zweck: Diese Arbeit bezweckt drei Ziele. Erstens versucht sie zu beleuchten, wie Mitglieder von Organisationen an die CSR- und Nachhaltigkeitsvorstellungen und-praktiken ihres Unternehmens herangehen und wie sie sich dazu verhalten. Zweitens zielt die Studie darauf ab, andere verwandte Bereiche zu untersuchen, in denen private Kognitionen der Organisationsmitglieder nicht mit den Vorstellungen ihres Unternehmens übereinstimmen. Drittens soll untersucht werden, wie die Organisationsmitglieder mit inkongruenten Kognitionen und möglichen Konflikten umgehen.  Theoretischer Hintergrund und Methode: Um ein umfassenderes Verständnis des Forschungsproblems zu gewinnen, wird diese Arbeit auf qualitative Daten aus halbstrukturierten Interviews zurückgreifen und Festingers (1957) ‘Kognitive Dissonanztheorie‘ (CDT) als theoretische Linse verwenden Ergebnisse und Schlussfolgerungen: Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Organisationsmitglieder eine hohe Übereinstimmung zwischen privaten Kognitionen und dem Verständnis ihrer Unternehmen von Nachhaltigkeit und CSR aufweisen und sich aktiv solche Unternehmen aussuchen. Im Hinblick auf nachhaltige Konsumniveaus und Kompromisse bezüglich Nachhaltigkeit sind private Kognitionen jedoch oft im Widerspruch zu den Vorstellungen des Unternehmens. Die Organisationsmitglieder können diesen Konflikt aber durch verschiedene Strategien lösen. Der Konflikt der Organisationsmitglieder in Bezug auf Nachhaltigkeitspraktiken und Konsumniveaus kann als Gegenstück zum ‘CSR-consumer paradox’ in einem organisatorischen Kontext gesehen werden. Daher bezeichnen wir dieses Phänomen als „CSR- Organizational Paradox“.
Bakgrund: Världen står inför en konsumtionskris. Mode- och klädindustrin är en bransch där överdrivna konsumtionsmönster går att finna i stor utsträckning. Konsumenter säger sig ha för avsikt att konsumera produkter som är mer hållbara men köper ofta inte dessa; detta benämns som ’CSR-consumer paradox’. Även på utbudssidan tar många hållbara modeföretag stort ansvar för sitt hållbarhetsarbete genom strikt arbete med Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), men möter ofta utmaningar längs leveranskedjan. Detta kan leda till klyftor mellan organisationernas CSR- och hållbarhetsintentioner och deras möjliga praxis. Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är tredelad. För det första försöker den belysa hur organisationsmedlemmar förhåller sig och relaterar till företagets CSR- och hållbarhetsintentioner och praxis. För det andra syftar studien till att undersöka andra relaterade områden där organisationsmedlemmarnas privata kognitioner inte överensstämmer med deras företags intentioner. För det tredje kommer organisationsmedlemmarnas strategier för att hantera sådana inkongruenta kognitioner och potentiella konflikter utforskas. Teoretiskt ramverk och metod: För att få en mer fullständig förståelse av forskningsproblemen baseras denna uppsats på kvalitativa data från semistrukturerade intervjuer och använder Festingers (1957) teori om kognitiv dissonans (CDT) som en teoretisk lins. Resultat och slutsatser: Resultaten visar att organisationsmedlemmar uppvisar hög korrelation mellan privata kognitioner och deras företags förståelse för hållbarhet och CSR och aktivt söker sig till sådana företag. När det gäller hållbara konsumtionsnivåer och kompromisser om hållbarhet, är dessa kognitioner ofta i konflikt gentemot företagets intentioner. Organisationsmedlemmarna kan ofta lösa dessa interna konflikter med en mängd olika strategier. Organisationsmedlemmarnas konflikt i relation till hållbarhetspraxis och konsumtionsnivåer kan ses som en motsvarighet till ’CSR-consumer paradox’ ett organisatoriskt sammanhang. Därför benämner vi detta fenomen ”CSR- Organizational Paradox”.

Abstract:
Face un environnement complexe et hyper-compétitif, les firmes sont amenées à reconsidérer leur modèle de création de valeur. Leur réaction s’insère dans le cadre d’une réinvention voire innovation de leur Business Model (BM). Ceci passe indéniablement par une démarche d’expérimentation stratégique. Définie comme un processus par lequel les firmes explorent de nouvelles sources de revenus et testent de nouveaux concepts d’affaires, l’expérimentation stratégique s’associe à un outil de réinvention du BM qui intervient non seulement dans la création de nouveaux BM mais également dans la transformation de BM existants. Nous posons ainsi la question de savoir : Comment concevoir l’expérimentation stratégique des BM des entreprises ? Dans cette perspective, notre recherche vise à dresser un cadre conceptuel et méthodologique de l’expérimentation stratégique. Il s’agit de proposer aux entreprises une aide à la conception d’une méthodologie d’expérimentation de BM. Pour répondre à cette problématique, nous proposons de définir l’expérimentation stratégique comme une théorie combinée du changement en partant du modèle de Van de Ven et Poole (1995) sur les théories de changement et de développement organisationnel. Ceci permet de traduire les processus centraux de l’expérimentation stratégique et d’en saisir les dimensions clés. Dans le cadre d’une approche qualitative avec étude de cas, nous interrogeons trois profils d’acteurs sur leurs registres de conception et de pratique de l’expérimentation. Ensuite, nous élaborons via une analyse inter-profils un modèle générique d’expérimentation stratégique de BM qui s’articule autour de trois temps de l’expérimentation stratégique ; un temps de virtualisation, un temps d’actualisation et un temps d’itérations de processus de rationalisation et d’apprentissage
In a hypercompetitive environment, firms are obliged to reconsider their revenue formula and to innovate consequently the way they create value and make profit. This lies at the heart of every company’s ability to experiment new Business Models (BM) and becomes a key step in the strategic thinking. Defined as a process by which firms explore new ways of doing business, strategic experimentation takes shape of series of trial and error changes pursued along various dimensions of strategy in an effort to identify and establish a viable basis for competing. Our research examines strategic experimentation as an effective tool for BM reinvention. It answers therefore to the main question of: How to conceive BM experimentation? In this way, we define strategic experimentation as a combined theory of change according to the model developed by Van de Ven and Poole (1995) to explain processes of organizational development and change. We aim at dressing a conceptual and methodological framework for strategic experimentation that would helps managers and academics to conceive and master the process of BM experimentation. Using a qualitative research methodology rooted in a case study approach, we achieved semi-structured interviews with three categories of actors implied in the process of BM experimentation. Our results demonstrate that BM experimentation is organized through four major processes which are exploration, formulation, resources allocation and identification which are articulated by a time of virtualization, a time of actualization, and a time of iterations based on learning and rationalization

Abstract:
Avant le déclenchement des affrontements armés, l'Artillerie est équipée en cohérence avec une doctrine inadaptée au regard des conflits récents et des possibilités techniques. Lorsque la guerre courte imaginée se mue en une guerre longue offrant la possibilité d'adapter les armements et nécessitant des consommations massives de projectiles, la gouvernance de la fonction de production entre en crise. Une évolution des schémas mentaux s'impose. L'institution d'un Sous-secrétariat d’État de l'artillerie et des munitions constitue une première manifestation de cette transformation. Albert Thomas adapte la gouvernance de la fonction de production des matériels d'artillerie en mettant en place une programmation des besoins, des fabrications et des facteurs de production, une politique industrielle, ainsi que des instruments de pilotage et de contrôle. Cette nouvelle gouvernance constitue le cœur de l'activité gouvernementale de pilotage de l'économie de guerre, mais cette dernière ne s'y limite pas : elle comprend aussi l'administration de toutes les ressources de la nation, qu'il s'agisse de la main-d'œuvre, des matières premières, de l'énergie, des transports ou des capacités d'innovation. Dans le contexte du parlementarisme de guerre, il est loisible d'affirmer que la concrétisation de l'idée d'une guerre industrielle conduit le pays à se doter peu à peu d'un nouveau régime politico – économique. En contrepoint de cette évolution, les entreprises adaptent leurs modes de fonctionnement pour produire en grandes séries ; les Armées industrialisent leurs fonctions de destruction, de protection, de logistique et de restauration des forces
Before the outbreak of the militarily clash, the Artillery was equipped in accordance with a doctrine ill-suited to recent conflicts and technical possibilities. When the imagined short war turns into a long war offering the possibility of adapting armaments and requiring massive consumption of projectiles, the governance of the production function enters into crisis. A change in mental patterns is needed. The establishment of an Under-Secretary of State for Artillery and Ammunition is a first step in this transformation. Albert Thomas adapts the governance of the production function of artillery equipment by setting up a program of needs, manufacturing and production factors, an industrial policy, as well as steering and control instruments. This new governance constitutes the heart of the governmental activity of steering the war economy, but the latter is not limited to this: it also includes the administration of all the nation's resources, whether labour, raw materials, energy, transportation or innovation capabilities. In the context of wartime parliamentarianism, it can be said that the realization of the idea of an industrial war gradually leads the country to establish a new political and economic regime. In parallel with this evolution, companies are adapting their operating methods to produce in large series; Armies are industrializing their destruction, protection, logistics and force restoration functions

Abstract:
Using organizational theory, this research study examines whether a firm's business strategy influences the ethical culture and climate within the organization, and thus explains why a firm's business strategy may ultimately contribute toward an increased risk of financial misreporting. This study develops from recent research which finds that companies following an innovative, risk-oriented Prospector business strategy are significantly more likely to experience financial reporting irregularities, despite increased audit effort levels. To examine the research question, both survey and archival methods are employed. Using a large-scale research survey, I find two subset groups of Prospector firms where a smaller (larger) group is significantly associated with a less (more) ethical culture and climate, which offer insights into why companies following a Prospector business strategy continue to experience irregularities despite auditors' efforts. Results suggest auditors may not be able to distinguish between the two sets of Prospectors and thus may direct higher audit efforts too generally at Prospector firms rather than at the smaller set of firms with less ethical cultures and climates?i.e., firms more prone to rationalizing less ethical behavior. I also find that firms pursing a second type of strategy, a transitory Reactor strategy, are consistently associated with a negative ethical culture and climate. For a subset of public companies which can be linked to archival data, I find evidence to suggest that companies with less (more) ethical climates are associated with an increased (reduced) risk of financial misreporting while controlling for incentive and opportunity factors. I continue to find evidence that companies following a Prospector business strategy are associated with greater risks of misreporting, confirming prior research. Altogether, my findings suggest several antecedents for firms experiencing greater risk of financial statement misreporting and provide evidence regarding the third leg of the auditing fraud triangle (rationalization).

Full text
Abstract:
This and the next chapter articulate a theory of business ethics that fits with how the book has approached corporate governance and corporate law. It takes the “market failures approach” (MFA) to business ethics as a starting point, a view that takes efficiency to be the primary moral principle for business. The MFA holds that businesses have an ethical duty not to exploit “market failures,” the inefficiencies and misallocations systematically and predictably effected by markets. This view is strong because it provides a robust account of business’s ethical duties within the framework of contemporary economic theory; business ethics is neither a wet blanket draped over the C-suite nor a self-serving rationalization of business’s self-interested activities. Instead, business ethics is shown to fit within a larger scheme of social cooperation, taking seriously businesses’ place within that scheme, particularly within a competitive market characterized by deontic weakening.

Abstract:
Corporate consulting, a one-time seemingly marvelous mixture of bare-knuckle rationalization, esoterica, and visionary futurism, is invariably deployed when business structures threaten to lose their equilibrium. What it actually means to be consulted, the part played by media in consulting, and how the branch of corporate consulting became a system of knowledge with such a socially important role is the object of this book. For the first time, it explores the ways in which the latest media technology, avant-garde aesthetics, economic pressures, and holistic philosophy together constituted the form of consulting dominant today, and which consequences arise from this. Thus it follows the work of early corporate consultants like Frank and Lillian Gilbreth and H. L. Gantt, while analyzing and describing their visual consulting models. The book develops a new, innovative, interdisciplinary approach, situated between media and business history, media archeology, and social theory, and thereby charts the genesis of modern consulting knowledge. It reveals that corporate consulting must be conceptualized in close relation to the visual culture that prevailed during this time, one which drew from nineteenth-century visualization methods and, more particularly, the new medium of film. Consulting is a cultural technique that is markedly characterized by media processes, in which the boundaries of economic logic and legitimacy emerge, and which, at the same time, considerably shapes and stabilizes this modus operandi up to the present day.

Abstract:
Fraud has been evolving and increasing with the change in the work environment, organizational structures, industrialization, and legislation. Money, greed, manipulation, job pressures, family needs, opportunity, politics, rationalization are the crucial reasons that lead people to behave fraudulently. The purpose of the chapter is to discuss a brief overview of theories of fraud. It presents causes that inspire individuals to commit fraud, methods for identifying fraud, and motives that encourage people to commit fraud. Management must try to eliminate the vulnerabilities that offer criminals the chance to commit fraud. Organizational leaders must be diligent, implement a robust anti-fraud strategy, and discourage all improper practices. Employee performance can also be strengthened through realistic anti-fraud preparation, and conformity with legal and regulatory obligations. Thus, fostering an ethical corporate culture is essential for fraud prevention.

Abstract:
Countries in conflict, trying to make a resolution, encounter a decision process. Often, in practice deci-sions are made based on groundless rationalization, therefore it is commonly believed that it is experi-ence and intuition that are key to the decision making process. Since decisions in law are usually based on logical reasoning, taking into account conflict circumstances and facts, the success of this decision can be determined with mathematical calculation. In recent decades, as the boundries be-tween scholarly disciplines blur, new ones are formed, which are not entirely indepedent, but bring in new research methods. Law and economics is a clear example of this interdisciplinery relation. The law system impacts the economical atmosphere, therefore before taking decision in law, economical aspects must be evaluated. Striving to resolve the disputes between parties at work mathematical cal-culations are used in order to analyze the expected behaviour of each party. Guidance for parties having dispute is the most economically viable option for completing the dispute.

Abstract:
In 2021, the Sri Lankan apparel manufacturing industry faced a severe downturn due to the COVID-19 pandemic and economic crises, highlighting the need for accurate sales predictions amid global supply chain disruptions. Traditional statistical models struggle to handle such crises, necessitating the exploration of machine learning methods for forecasting sales. This study aimed to identify the most effective predictive models for finished apparel goods sales, addressing data complexities like seasonality, trend, and stationarity, with a focus on enhancing decision-making in the industry. The dataset consisted of 128 weekly records of point-of-sale (POS) data for three specific apparel items sold in the US and manufactured in Sri Lanka, spanning from January 2021 to June 2023. Also, the inflation rate in the USA is used as an exogenous variable. Data preprocessing began with rationalization, followed by splitting it into training and testing sets. Two models, ARIMA and SARIMAX, were constructed using the training data to analyze the time series. Model performance was assessed using Mean Square Error (MSE), with the goal of generating future sales predictions. The results indicated that the ARIMA model outperformed SARIMAX, exhibiting significantly lower MSE values. This outcome suggests that ARIMA is the superior model for forecasting sales in this context. Future research aims to validate this result by incorporating additional datasets, ensuring the continued effectiveness of the ARIMA model in predicting apparel sales. In conclusion, this study highlights the critical role of advanced machine learning techniques, in improving sales predictions for the Sri Lankan apparel manufacturing industry. By addressing data complexities and employing robust validation methods, this research contributes to more precise planning and decision-making, essential for navigating disruptions in the global supply chain and economic uncertainties.

Full text
Abstract:
As transportation corridors become an ever more important asset, existing rail freight corridors are under increasing pressure to be shared for transit purposes. In defining the expanded corridor use a comprehensive look at factors was undertaken on behalf of Transport Canada by AECOM. Understanding the issues is imperative in navigating this complex subject. In locations where the transit network and expected ridership-generation points are compatible with existing railway networks, the best use of a network of corridors for freight and transit should be one of the first steps in municipal and regional planning. Finding a best use of existing network typically does not happen for two reasons. First, the public entities typically do not observe the complete “freight network” and have a limited stake in its function and complexity. Unlike public roads or transit, public entities tend to look at single opportunities such as little used freight segments, or specific corridors that they can afford to pursue with a specific public purpose. As a result, freight railways often find themselves responding to a specific request for a segment in the context of their network and whether it serve a functional need. Second, the private freight railways similarly do not have opportunity or patience to investigate the public contribution to their networks. The point of view of what might be done if the potential transit services were understood and what it could mean to freight business with capital investment in an improved and/or rationalized freight delivery system may be hard to define, and the benefits may only occur in the distant future. They have a priority to pursue their immediate business model and therefore tend to wait until the public entity comes forward and asks about a specific corridor or opportunity. The issue of assets inventory, rationalization paired with transit planning, is the first step in evaluating efficient transportation systems through urban centres. Furthermore, the ability of some transit vehicles to be used on both on dedicated railway transit corridors, where it makes sense, as well as for street services, provide for greater flexibility in transit networks. What is missing is a review of freight networks from a regional perspective relative to all potential transit routes. The first question to be asked when looking at the freight network of an urban area is: where is it going, why is it going there, and could it be handled more effectively, and if so what are the overall benefits to all parties.

Abstract:
Thus far in reporting the findings of our project “Fifty Years After: Black Employment in the United States Under the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission,” our analysis of what has happened to African American employment over the past half century has documented the importance of manufacturing employment to the upward socioeconomic mobility of Blacks in the 1960s and 1970s and the devastating impact of rationalization—the permanent elimination of blue-collar employment—on their socioeconomic mobility in the 1980s and beyond. The upward mobility of Blacks in the earlier decades was based on the Old Economy business model (OEBM) with its characteristic “career-with-one-company” (CWOC) employment relations. At its launching in 1965, the policy approach of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission assumed the existence of CWOC, providing corporate employees, Blacks included, with a potential path for upward socioeconomic mobility over the course of their working lives by gaining access to productive opportunities and higher pay through stable employment within companies. It was through these internal employment structures that Blacks could potentially overcome barriers to the long legacy of job and pay discrimination. In the 1960s and 1970s, the generally growing availability of unionized semiskilled jobs gave working people, including Blacks, the large measure of employment stability as well as rising wages and benefits characteristic of the lower levels of the middle class. The next stage in this process of upward socioeconomic mobility should have been—and in a nation as prosperous as the United States could have been—the entry of the offspring of the new Black blue-collar middle class into white-collar occupations requiring higher educations. Despite progress in the attainment of college degrees, however, Blacks have had very limited access to the best employment opportunities as professional, technical, and administrative personnel at U.S. technology companies. Since the 1980s, the barriers to African American upward socioeconomic mobility have occurred within the context of the marketization (the end of CWOC) and globalization (accessibility to transnational labor supplies) of high-tech employment relations in the United States. These new employment relations, which stress interfirm labor mobility instead of intrafirm employment structures in the building of careers, are characteristic of the rise of the New Economy business model (NEBM), as scrutinized in William Lazonick’s 2009 book, Sustainable Prosperity in the New Economy? Business Organization and High-Tech Employment in the United States (Upjohn Institute). In this paper, we analyze the exclusion of Blacks from STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) occupations, using EEO-1 employment data made public, voluntarily and exceptionally, for various years between 2014 and 2020 by major tech companies, including Alphabet (Google), Amazon, Apple, Cisco, Facebook (now Meta), Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HP Inc., Intel, Microsoft, PayPal, Salesforce, and Uber. These data document the vast over-representation of Asian Americans and vast under-representation of African Americans at these tech companies in recent years. The data also shine a light on the racial, ethnic, and gender composition of large masses of lower-paid labor in the United States at leading U.S. tech companies, including tens of thousands of sales workers at Apple and hundreds of thousands of laborers & helpers at Amazon. In the cases of Hewlett-Packard, IBM, and Intel, we have access to EEO-1 data from earlier decades that permit in-depth accounts of the employment transitions that characterized the demise of OEBM and the rise of NEBM. Given our findings from the EEO-1 data analysis, our paper then seeks to explain the enormous presence of Asian Americans and the glaring absence of African Americans in well-paid employment under NEBM. A cogent answer to this question requires an understanding of the institutional conditions that have determined the availability of qualified Asians and Blacks to fill these employment opportunities as well as the access of qualified people by race, ethnicity, and gender to the employment opportunities that are available. Our analysis of the racial/ethnic determinants of STEM employment focuses on a) stark differences among racial and ethnic groups in educational attainment and performance relevant to accessing STEM occupations, b) the decline in the implementation of affirmative-action legislation from the early 1980s, c) changes in U.S. immigration policy that favored the entry of well-educated Asians, especially with the passage of the Immigration Act of 1990, and d) consequent social barriers that qualified Blacks have faced relative to Asians and whites in accessing tech employment as a result of a combination of statistical discrimination against African Americans and their exclusion from effective social networks.
