Full textO objetivo deste estudo é investigar o impacto da qualidade dos resultados na eficiência de investimento em empresas Europeias, cotadas e não cotadas. A amostra, retirada da base de dados Amadeus, é composta por 6921 empresas de 19 países. A eficiência do investimento é baseada no modelo de oportunidades crescentes de Biddle et al. (2009), expandido por literatura subsequente, e a qualidade dos resultados é medida usando o modelo de Dechow e Dichev modificado por McNichols (2002). Os resultados obtidos são significativos, e mostram que uma maior qualidade dos resultados está relacionada com uma maior eficiência de investimento, medida pelos desvios do nível ótimo. Estes resultados verificam-se quer considerando o valor absoluto destes desvios, quer considerando os cenários de subinvestimento (desvios negativos) ou sobreinvestimento (desvios positivos). O efeito do nível de caixa e endividamento foi igualmente considerado nesta relação, observando-se uma influência significativa.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of earnings quality on investment efficiency in European listed and unlisted companies. The sample, collected from Amadeus database, is composed by 6921 companies from 19 countries. The investment efficiency measure is based on Biddle et al. (2009) growth opportunities model and subsequent research, and earnings quality is measured using Dechow and Dichev (2002) model modified by McNichols (2002). Results show that higher earnings quality is associated with higher investment efficiency, measured by the deviations from the optimal investment level. These results hold for both underinvestment (negative deviations) and overinvestment (positive deviations) scenarios. Results also suggest that cash and leverage levels play an important role on the relation between earnings quality and investment efficiency.

Full textIn recent years, a large number of works have stressed the crucial role of institutions in the process of growth and development. As a follow-up to this literature, this thesis studies the macroeconomics of two phenomena characteristic of a poor institutional quality: corruption and tax evasion. Thus, in Chapter 1, we analyze how institutional quality nonlinearly affects the relation between corruption and growth. We identify two channels, namely private investment and public spending, through which a dual effect of corruption can appear in a second best regime, conditional on institutional quality. In Chapter 2, we pursue the analysis initiated in Chapter 1 to study the interactions between fiscal corruption, seigniorage and inflation. We show that seigniorage is a monetary policy instrument that allows reducing the aggregate level of corruption and that corruption increases the optimal seigniorage rate. Chapter 2 also suggests the existence of nonlinearities in the corruption-inflation nexus. Chapter 3 empirically confirms the existence of a U-shaped relation between corruption and inflation. Finally, we examine in Chapter 4 how tax evasion affects the dynamics of public debt accumulation. We show that the relation between tax evasion and public debt is characterized by a U-shaped curve in high-growth economies and is negative in low-growth economies. We also show that aggregate instability may appear in some circumstances, depending on the behavior of the government towards tax evasion

Full textHigher education institutions play an important role in the economy of any region or country as they contribute to the formation of human capital, new knowledge and entrepreneurship. Due to increased competition, universities are under constant pressure to improve their performance. In this vein, literature has long indicated that quality, productivity and customer orientation should be considered as key elements in order to achieve superior performance. However, assessing these concepts in the context of higher education is complex. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the determinants of quality, efficiency and customer orientation in higher education and the possible relationship between these concepts. Thus, the specific objectives of this research are the following: to examine the impact of attributes of quality and reputation on the dynamic evolution of productivity in a sample of Latin American universities (Chapter 2); to examine the nature and determinants of student evaluations of teaching performance (Chapter 3); and to examine the influence of the student-customer orientation and other personal variables on the assessment of university teachers’ performance (Chapter 4). Our findings reaffirm the idea that more reliable results in productivity measurement are sought by grouping universities into more homogeneous subsets of institutions. The results also indicate that attributes of quality and reputation have an impact on productivity analysis. Findings also show that student evaluation of teaching is a complex phenomenon that depends on factors related to teacher, student and course profiles. Students basically assess the expertise, attitude and behavior of teachers. Findings also suggest that student-customer orientation enhances teachers’ performance. This thesis integrates the literature on services marketing, operations management and higher education in order to provide a wider and deeper insight into the assessment of educational performance. From a practical perspective, this research may help managers to create a competitive advantage in higher education institutions.

Thermalization losses drastically reduce the efficiency of silicon solar cells. In an age where we need sustainable energy production more than ever, silicon is the best material to target due to its high stake in the sustainable energy market. An organic-inorganic solar cell hybrid of tetracene-covered silicon can reduce thermalization losses through the downconversion process of using a high energy photon to generate two lower energy electron-hole pairs. This occurs through the singlet-triplet fission process that excitons can undertake in tetracene. The effect of the interface quality between tetracene and silicon on successful triplet energy transfer is investigated. RFPCD (Radio Frequency Photoconductive Decay) is used to measure the bulk lifetime as well as the surface recombination lifetime of minority carriers in both n- and p-type Silicon of various doping concentrations. The surface recombination velocity was calculated from the measurement of surface recombination lifetime and analyzed after the silicon underwent RCA clean, RCA clean followed by an HF dip, tungsten nitride ALD, and tetracene evaporation using various combinations of these steps to form appropriate process flows. It was found that the highest surface quality was obtained by the lowest doped wafers. Additionally, similar doping levels were affected similarly by the various processing steps outlined above while the type of dopant did not seem to dictate the surface quality response. Triplet energy transfer was not fully confirmed from tetracene to silicon, but the surface quality turned out to be a very important indication for whether or not this energy transfer could occur.
