Abstract:
In a country’s economy, government’s role is undebatable in theories or treasury of economic thought. Through various policies concerning the public sector, the government has a significant role in driving economic growth. One of them is the government’s role in Indonesia. The government’s role in Indonesia in the economic sector is key to a more prosperous society, and it is expected that Indonesia can become a developed and developing country. The economic magnitude and problems such as demand and supply cannot be given up to the market mechanism and free of economic forces. And how the government intervenes in price fixing when a market imbalance exists. Therefore, efforts to balance the growth of various economic sectors to supply must be in line with demand. It needs supervision and regulation by the State or government to obtain balanced economic growth. Thus, the researcher is interested to study government intervention in price fixing in the market and how it is viewed from Islamic economics. The results of this study show that the form of government intervention, both directly and indirectly in price fixing in the market is to protect consumers or producers through a price floor policy. Minimum price fixing or base prices performed by the government aims to protect producers. For instance, the price fixing of grain sold by farmers. And the maximum price fixing policy (price ceiling). The maximum price fixing policy is set to protect consumers. For instance, fix a maximum price for fuel oil, fertilizer, and medicines. In Islamic economics, government intervention is divided into two parts, including interventions that are forbidden or haram, involving government’s involvement in price fixing that are not based on applicable rules or do not consider overall market’s needs. Permitted interventions, including the involvement of the government in price fixing when an emergency occurs, where a third party is required in price fixing to create justice among market participants. Keywords: Government intervention, price fixing, price ceiling and price floor

Abstract:
A price fixing agreement is an agreement practice entered into by companies in the same industry to fix prices for goods/services together in the relevant market. Price fixing agreements on air freight rates have a negative impact on business competition, especially for consumers who use air transport services. This study aims to determine the form of price fixing agreement practices on air freight rates and the form of legal protection for consumers against price fixing agreements on air freight rates. This research uses normative legal research methods through literature study. The results of this study indicate that business actors who enter into price fixing agreements to increase the price of airplane tickets beyond the specified tarif limit have violated the provisions of business competition law, which can harm consumers. The legal protection provided to consumers in the form of preventive legal protection and repressive legal protection depends on the jurisdiction and the applicable legal framework.

Abstract:
Accusations of price manipulation in the silver and gold markets have emerged in recent years. In an effort to increase transparency, the London spot price “fixing” mechanism was recently changed from an opaque negotiation process among a small number of dealer banks to a more observable auction platform system with more participants and public reporting. This change in the price fixing process raises questions about whether manipulation was occurring prior to the fix change and whether any perceived manipulation has since been reduced. Our results suggest that the changes to the price fixing process have impacted volatilities and prices within the silver and gold markets which could be an indicator of manipulation prior to the change.

Abstract:
The price strategy and the right propose of price level play fundamental part in every company with successfull leadership. Especially nowadays, when the sensitivity of customers is growing and not only in the sphere of price but also promotion. It seems, in the case of product category of juices Pfanner, which are processed in this graduation theses, is this fact valid especially. What the price and sales development do the main players note in this market is analysed pursuant to secondary data of research agency MEMRB Retail Services. The reception of brand image and the customers behavior comes from study TNS AISA. The graduation these is trying to find the answer especially on these questions: Can the company Pfanner keep the high quality brand image and increase sales at the same time? What level of price can, together with certain promotion activities, ensure higher turnover but at the same time not damage the long time builded brand image? What is the optimal level of common and action price of Pfanner products?

Abstract:
Thesis ( M.Sc.(Agricultural Economics)) --University of Limpopo, 2019.
Potato is perceived as an excellent crop in the fight against hunger and poverty. The recent high potato price in South Africa has pushed the vegetable out of reach of the poorest of the poor. The study attempts to analyse potato price volatility in South Africa and furthermore assess how various factors were responsible for the recent potato price volatility. Quarterly data for potato price, number of hectares planted, rainfall and temperature levels from 2006q1 to 2017q4 was collected from various sources and were used for analysis. The total observation of 48. The volatility in the series was determined by performing ARCH/GARCH model. GARCH model indicates an evidence of GARCH effect in the series, meaning that GARCH model influences potato price volatility in South Africa. The Johansen cointegration used both trace and eigenvalue to test the existence of a long run relationship between potato price and various variables. The cointegration results were positive indicating that there exists long run relationship amongst variables. The study further used Johansen cointegration as well as standard error to determine the number of cointegrating variables in the long run. The results indicated that the number of hectares planted and rainfall level have significant relationship with potato price. Wald tests was used to check whether the past values of number of hectares planted and rainfall level influenced the current value of potato price. The Walt test results concluded that there is no evidence of short run causality running from number of hectares planted and rainfall level to potato price. In the study, ECM model was used to forecast the potato price fluctuation in South Africa. The study recommends that farmers need to engage in contract market so as to minimize the risk of potato price volatility. The Department of Agriculture should forecast agricultural commodities price volatility and make information accessible to the farmers so that they are able to adopt strategies that will assist them to overcome crisis.

Abstract:
Wholesale electricity markets now operate in many countries around the world. These markets determine a spot price for electricity as the clearing price when generators bid in energy at various prices. As the trading in a wholesale electricity market can be seen as a dynamic repeated game, it would be expected that profit maximising generators learn to engage in tacit collusion to profitably increase spot market prices. This thesis investigates this tacit collusion of generators in oligopolistic electricity markets. We do not follow the approach of previous work in game theory that presupposes firms' collusive strategies to enforce collusion in an oligopoly. Instead, we develop a co-evolutionary approach (extending previous work in this area) using a genetic algorithm (GA) to co-evolve strategies for all generators in some stylised models of an electricity market. The bidding strategy of each generator is modelled as a set of bidding actions, one for each possible discrete state of the state space observed by the generator. The market trading interactions are simulated to determine the fitness of a particular strategy. The tacitly collusive outcomes and strategies emerging from computational experiments are thus obtained from the learning or evolutionary process instead of from any pre-specification. Analysing many of those emergent collusive outcomes and strategies. we are able to specify the mechanism of tacit collusion and investigate how the market environment can affect it. We find that the learned collusive strategies are similar to the forgiving trigger strategies of classical supergame theory (Green and Porter, 1984). Also using computational experiments, we can determine which characteristics of the market environment encourage or hinder tacit collusion. The findings from this thesis provide insights on tacit collusion in an oligopoly and policy implications from a learning perspective. With modelling flexibility, our co-evolutionary approach can be extended to study strategic behaviour in an oligopoly considering many other market characteristics.

Abstract:
This thesis is composed of three chapters that form two parts. The first part is composed of two chapters and studies problems related to the exotic option market. In the first chapter we are interested in a numerical problem. More precisely we derive closed-form approximations for the price of some exotic options in the Black and Scholes framework. The second chapter discusses the construction of multivariate Lévy processes with and without stochastic volatility. The second part is composed of one chapter. It deals with a completely different issue. There we will study the problem of individual and temporal aggregation in panel data models.

AbstractThe transformation towards a zero-carbon economy requires a comprehensive renovation of the capital stock. This chapter proposes a system of effective carbon pricing that avoids the rebound effects of the related (transitory) “green growth” on carbon emissions. Technically, a system of effective carbon pricing could easily be implemented: a group of countries like the EU, or the biggest carbon emitters as “China-US-EU climate club” or a “Mercosur climate club” sets a path of steadily rising prices of crude oil, coal, and natural gas by skimming off the difference between the target price and the respective world market price through a flexible quantity tax.

Abstract:
Restriction of competition by object is characterised with those types of business practices which reveal a sufficient degree of harm to competition. These are the most serious forms of business practices such as: price fixing, market sharing, output restrictions. But, restriction of competition can not be established simply considering the form of the practice. It means that it is not enough to recognise existence of price fixing to decide that competition is distorted by object. An analysis has to be done. But analysis of what? It is absolutely not analysis of restrictive effects because no actual anticompetitive effect need to be demonstrated where the practice by its very nature is sufficiently deleterious nor competition authorities can rely on restrictive effects as a proof that competition is restricted by object. Restrictions of competition by object and by effects are alternative. At the other side, assessment of restrictive impact of the practice must not be purely hypothetical. Assessment of the content of the business practice done in the economic and legal context of relevant market is a good starting point to determine boundaries of investigation but is not a final solution since the subject of assessment must be defined. The very acceptable direction in resolving of the puzle is to answer the question regarding the objectives of the practice and ask what is a rationale of the practice i.e. more precisely: can the practice produce pro- competitive effects? If it is plausible for the practice to be objectively justified by producing pro-competitive effects, the practice can not be determined as a restrictive by object (that does not exclude the possibility that the practice is restrictive due its effects if a comparison carried out in further procedure shows that restrictive effects outweigh pro-competitive ones or that prevention of competition is not indispensable for achieving of pro-competitive effects). That is why restrictions of competition by object are not per se prohibited. There are instances where price fixing, market sharing or output limitations are not deemed as practices that are restrictive by object because determined rationale of the practice indicates that the practice undertaken can be justified. For example, it can not be considered as a restriction of competition by object where an agreed output limit is equal to a maximum of capacity and production volume of a joint venture or to the agreed amount of outsourced products (if other so called hardcore restrictions are not present). Such objective explanations and other legitimate aims of competition restriction appearing in the pending case must be considered because restriction of competition by object must be interpreted strictly. Consequently, in the situation of a sufficiently deleterous practice where is not allowed for restriction of competition by object to be proved by existence of anti- competitive effects, it can be proved by absence of pro-competitive ones. Only that practice for which from experience derives conclusion that regularly restricts competition appreciably and which does not produce and is not capable to produce any pro-competitive effect restricts the competition by object. If pro- competitive effects can justify restriction an assessment of restrictive effects and comparison of former and latter is inevitable.

Abstract:
One difficulty for the successful implementation of holographic data storage is having the ability to read data without affecting the data. Thermal fixing[1] as well as two-photon techniques[2] have been investigated as possible solutions. Reading data with a wavelength other than that which the data had been written is another viable alternative. Furthermore, choosing a reading wavelength that corresponds to a laser of a more favorable size, price, or ease of use could also be a benefit of such a system. Külich has previously investigated how to minimize the error induced due to reading and writing using different wavelengths by reading data with a spherical beam[3]. Psaltis et al. later introduced a formatting technique to allow a page to be read with a different wavelength by writing the page of data in pieces using several reference angles[4]. For digital data to be accurately read with an acceptable amount of mismatch, a three-dimensional mapping of the data must be applied to a system using this formatting technique. Optimization of such a system then requires the investigation of mismatch as a parameter effecting the diffraction efficiency.

Abstract:
Abstract The oil industry is experiencing a critical situation as the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak. There are several challenges that facing the industry specially the investors as the global decline in demand for Energy merchandises, the future exploration and development drilling in new assets that require massive investments is still uncertain based on the current market price and conditions. The much-reported fall in oil prices and the acute pressure on IOCs to survive in this environment led the companies to stop many ongoing projects and shrink work profile that affected the oil production all over the world. The situation in Egypt is quite challenging for the investors as Egypt is a big consumer, along with the political stability that kept the economy running directed the big IOCs to embrace innovative approaches to lower the operating costs that has the direct impact on the cost per barrel to support maintaining the country growth and secure current energy demand. Dragon Oil company as newly introduced to Egypt's market after acquiring the market shares of one of the major joint ventures in Egypt (Gulf of Suez Petroleum Company- GUPCO) in October 2019 has faced the same dilemma of exerted pressure on the expenditures (Capex and Opex) in order to cope with the global market circumstances. However that didn't deter the company to embrace an innovative way of thinking and handling for the situation. Dragon Oil/GUPCO multi-disciplinary teams achieved successfully a production incremental increase of 10,000 barrels per day through the past six month by adapting a strategic management innovative plans, alternative lower cost technical solutions, production optimization and introducing new proved technologies to the 50 years old assets. This paper will highlight the complete workflow adopted by GUPCO/Dragon Oil teams covering the whole process aspects; appraise, select, define and execution phases to achieve the company goals. The work done was including restoring production from Shut-in offshore platforms or wells via fixing the surface network using neoteric solutions, widely applying rigless interventions using several new techniques in the current producers to maximize their production and optimizing the production cycle across the four production chokes In Summary, Dragon Oil/GUPCO teams managed to increase GUPCO's production despite of the restricted budget and the negative impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the oil price and reach an outstanding performance in operation excellence and safety aspects that results in arresting the natural decline and increase the growth production by about 15% from the 2019 Average production.

Abstract:
An essential aspect of deepening the level of economic integration between European economies is the reduction of mutual economic disparities, which is especially emphasized by the formation of the supranational monetary authority of the Euro-zone member states. However, fixing the currency for the euro and losing monetary sovereignty in the circumstances of a structurally heterogeneous system meant that the same monetary policy provoked different repercussions for member states. This research aims to point out the differences in the exchange rate transmission mechanism between the representatives of two groups of Euro-zone member states: the core of the EZ (Germany, Finland, Belgium, and France) and the periphery of the EZ (Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland), in the 1999M1-2021M1 time horizon. Empirical findings are based on estimates of the VAR model, i.e. derived impulse response functions in the circumstances of shock transmission (nominal effective exchange rate) to inflation (consumer price index). The results of the research indicate the asymmetry of the exchange rate transmission mechanism in terms of a more pronounced and longer degree of exposure of peripheral economies to shocks of the nominal exchange rate compared to the representatives of the core of the Euro-zone. Empirical findings confirm the asymmetry of the exchange rate transmission mechanism as one of the indicators of the weakness of the Euro-zone, given the inflationary diversity and the consequent anomalies of the monetary union with heterogeneous membership.

Abstract:
Abstract Third rail systems must be properly maintained to ensure trouble-free reliability. With limited maintenance resources and track maintenance windows, much of third rail maintenance is reactive. Most would agree that fixing problems when they arise is no way to run a railroad. A properly configured and implemented third rail analysis system enables maintainers to adopt a targeted Preventive Maintenance (PM) approach to the third rail. By pinpointing potential problems, maintainers can focus their valuable resources on the most critical conditions and locations before service is affected. The relatively low price point for sensor and processing technology has fostered the development of cost-effective tools for the analysis of third rail systems. Multi-channel data acquisition devices allow for simultaneous capture of a dozen or more variables with total sampling rates in the GHz range. Superimposing this data on train position creates a detailed and precise system condition map. In addition to mapping third rail condition for PM activity, this technology can also be used to verify and correct system condition at commissioning, thereby establishing a baseline of system condition for future analysis. Data such as collector shoe impact, voltage variation, and current level is captured and can be compared with periodic analyses to identify trends in third rail condition. This paper examines the configuration and use of a third rail analysis system for both legacy and greenfield applications. The author steps through system architecture, data analysis, and several case studies of how the data was used to identify and locate problems that compromised system reliability and efficiency. Modern power rail analysis technology offers significant benefits to installers and maintainers.

Abstract:
Dôchodok sa ospravedlňuje nielen ekonomickými argumentmi, ale aj morálnymi presvedčeniami o tom, čo dôchodok je. Rôzne sociálne inštitúcie sa líšia v zdôvodňovaní dôchodku. Odbory pristupujú k dôchodku ako k sociálnemu právu, ktoré je v súčasnosti ohrozené. Podnikatelia chápu fixný vek odchodu do dôchodku ako zastaraný a nákladný inštitút. Dôchodcovia okrem práva na zaslúžený odpočinok požadujú právo nebyť vylúčení z pracujúcej spoločnosti. Tieto rôzne konceptualizácie priamo alebo nepriamo reflektujú koncepty dôchodku, ktoré si pre seba vytvárajú jednotlivci. K hlavným dôsledkom zmien v inštitúte dôchodku patria rôznorodejšie cesty do dôchodku a platená práca v dôchodkovom veku. Psychológia dôchodku pomáha zvládať psychologické reakcie na tieto prebiehajúce zmeny v dôchodku. Jej obsahom sú otázky: aký je význam dôchodku, ako čeliť strate pracovnej identity a vyjednávať si nové identity, zvládať štruktúru voľného času, a rekonštruovať svoje sociálne roly, vzťahy a kontakty.
