Abstract

Fast food restaurants often attract their target consumers with their taste, price, and level of customer service. Specific dimensions must also be considered when making purchases to attract customers to these restaurants. This study aims to give new entrants in the fast food business a basis for what they should concentrate on to draw in Generation Y customers. 385 participants received an online survey, and descriptive statistics, PLS-SEM, WARP PLS Version 7.0, and SPSS Version 20 were utilized to examine the quantitative data. Results showed that respondents regarded service quality as the most significant factor, meaning it is more important that employees treat them well in a fast food restaurant for them to return from the same restaurant. On the other hand, brand association is not as crucial as the other factors. Nonetheless, it still influences the purchase intention in the industry through the awareness it provides regarding updates on the new entrants to fast food in the Philippines.

This research aims to analyze each of the operational and financial factors that can be used as variables influencing decisions and the intensity of hedging. There are two test analysis model used in this study, the first to test the company decision to hedge as a measured by using dummy variables and the second model is used to test the intensity of the company in hedging as measured by the ratio of derivative and natural logarithm of derivative. By using Probit and Tobit regression, the results of the logistic regression test show that financial factors such as financial distress, and leverage, and so operational factors such as foreign sales variables did not influence the firm's decisions and intensity in carrying out hedging activities. Foreign debt variables, profitability, and firm size that include financial factors have a positive influence on company decisions and intensity in carrying out hedging decisions, while the last part of financial factors such as growth opportunity variables only has a positive effect on company decisions in carrying out hedging activities and have no effect on the intensity of firms in hedging activities. The liquidity variable has a negative influence on the decisions and intensity of the company in conducting hedging activities. The originality of this study lies in the intensity factor of the use of hedging on the company's operations and finances in hedging, whereas in previous studies only focused on the influence of factors that can influence hedging decisions.

Abstract

Several companies have adopted sustainability as a business approach to create long-term value by ensuring that they operate in an ethical way that protects the social, ecological, and economic environments. Nowadays, the demand for sustainable products has increased in various industries, including the cosmetics industry, and customers go through a complex process when deciding which products to buy. Hence, there is a lack of study in terms of determining the disparity between the purchasing behavior of Generation X and Z. With that, this study determined the specific difference between the purchasing behavior of Gen X and Z as green cosmetic product consumers and identified which among the factors; environmental consciousness, eco-label, attitude, green advertising and price sensitivity significantly influence their buying behavior as well as their perception towards them. An online questionnaire was distributed to 385 respondents, and the data gathered for this quantitative study were analyzed through descriptive statistics, t-test, and multiple linear regression. The findings of this study show that while all factors are perceived as important for both generations and have a role in their behavior as a consumer of green cosmetics products, only price sensitivity significantly affect the purchasing behavior of Gen X. On the other hand, both eco-label and price sensitivity significantly affects Gen Z’s purchasing behavior toward green cosmetic products.
