The main objective of the study is to assess the level of effectiveness of working capital management practices of bakeshops in Marikina City and Pasig City. The study specifically addressed the following problems: (1) Firm’s  profile of the respondents according to number of years in operation, number of employees, capitalization, source of capitalization, and average monthly sales, and individual profile according to age, sex, highest education attainment, and number of related trainings/seminars attended for the last three years.; (2) Respondents’ assessment on the level of effectiveness of the working capital management practices in terms of Cash Management, Receivable Management, Payable Management, and Inventory Management; and (3) Significant difference in the respondents’ assessment on the level of effectiveness of working capital management practices when grouped according to profile. This study utilized the descriptive-survey method of research through survey questionnaire which involved 156 registered bakeshops. Majority of the respondents were between 24 to 39 years old, male, had attained college degree, attended 1 to 2 related trainings/seminars for the past three years, more than 6 years in the business with 3 to 5 employees, and operated with a capitalization of Php 50,000 sourced from self-funding with Php 50,000 average monthly sales. On the level of assessment on effectiveness of the working capital management practices, the respondent’s perception on all aspects was all effective. The researcher provided recommendations on the improvement of working capital management practices in view of bakeshop owners, local government unit, aspiring entrepreneurs, and future research.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of behavioral biases on the investment decision- making of third-year BS Management students at Ateneo de Manila University, with peer networks as a mediating variable and weekly allowance as a moderating variable. Behavioral biases were measured in terms of loss aversion, reference dependence, probability weighting, and framing effects, while decision-making was assessed through intuitive and deliberative investment thinking, with peer networks further evaluated in terms of influence, similarity, and compatibility. Additionally, statistical tools such as frequency and percentage distribution, weighted mean, simple linear regression, and mediation and moderation analysis through regression were used for the treatment of data. The results indicate that behavioral biases have a significant influence on investment decision- making. Peer networks were found to significantly mediate the relationship between behavioral biases and investment decisions, while weekly allowance moderated this relationship only at higher allowance levels. These results highlight the need to promote financial awareness and reflective decision-making among young investors to support more responsible and deliberate investment practices.
