Abstract

Purpose: This study examined the effect of debt financing on the firm valuation of quoted non-financial firms on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). The study specifically evaluated the effect of short-term debt to equity, long-term debt to equity, and total debt to assets on Tobin’s Q for the period 2011 to 2019. Methodology: The study adopts the ex post facto research design. The sampling technique utilized in the study was non-probability sampling. The final sample comprised seventy-five firms quoted non-financial firms on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). The secondary data obtained from MachameRATIOS®were analyzed using panel regression techniques. Unlike prior studies, the study also employs the Arellano Bond Dynamic Panel-data Estimation Model for robustness analysis. Results: There is a negative effect of short-term debt to equity on Tobin’s Q. The effect of long-term debt to equity and total debt to assets was positive and significant. Limitations: The main limitation is the unbalanced nature of some sectors due to data unavailability. Contribution: The study contributes to the literature in the context of developing countries, on the effect of long-term debt on firm valuation; consistent with the trade-off theory of the cost of long-term debt financing as an alternative to internal funding.

Abstract

Purpose: The study examines the effect of gearing ratios on the operating cash flow performance of 36 manufacturing firms listed on the Nigeria Stock Exchange from 2011 to 2018 financial years. The study evaluated the effect of capital gearing, income and the operating gearing ratios on the operating cash flow of quoted manufacturing firms. Research methodology: The study adopts an ex post facto research design utilizing a final sample of thirty-six (36) purposively selected manufacturing firms quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). The study utilized financial statement data compiled by MachameRATIOS®. The data were analyzed using multiple regression techniques. Results: There is a negative effect of capital and income gearing ratio on operating cash flows with the former not significant, and a positive non-significant effect of operating gearing ratio on operating cash flow. Limitations: The focus on consumer and industrial goods firms limits the generalizability of the study findings to other sectors of the economy. The study did not test for Granger causality. Contribution: The study contributes to the literature in the context of developing countries, on the importance of monitoring the different gearing ratios, more especially the income gearing ratio to ensure positive cash flow. The findings also confirm that managers from emerging economies can alter business risk to sustain favorable performance. The study has implications for investors assessing investment decisions on the need to be wary of the different market and financial risk profiles computed from the various measures in making informed investment decisions.

Abstract

Purpose: Prior studies show that inventory holding is closely linked to liquidity and procyclical dependent on the combination of macroeconomic and firm characteristics. Thus, conditional linear factor models such as OLS should fail to explain the inventory-holding motive, especially in the context of developing countries. This study seeks to empirically investigate the determinants of corporate inventory holding based on evidence from pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria. Research methodology: The study adopts the ex post facto research design. The final sample was eight pharmaceutical & healthcare firms quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). The data were analysed using the quantile regression technique. Results: The results showed that the inflation rate had a positive effect on the inventory holding distribution at upper quantiles (75th); and, the cash conversion cycle on the inventory holding was significant at different quantiles (25th, 50th and 75th). Profitability and liquidity were non-significant at different quantile distributions. Limitations: The focus on pharmaceutical firms limits the generalizability of the study findings to other sectors of the economy. Contributions: The study contributes to the literature in the context of developing countries, on the impact of varying firm characteristics and inflation rates on the different conditional distribution of the regressand, i.e., inventory holding.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examined the effect of microfinance services on the growth of Women's entrepreneurial businesses in North-central Nigeria. Research methodology: A survey research design with a population of 7061 women entrepreneurs in North-central, Nigeria and a sample size of 379 was used in the study. The effect between the variables was determined through correlation and multiple regression analysis. Results: The findings revealed that microfinance lending; saving and training services have positive and weighty effects on the growth of women entrepreneurial businesses in Nigeria’s North-central while microfinance management consultancy services recorded an inverse and insignificant impact on the women entrepreneurial businesses' growth in the zone. Limitations: This study is limited to only entrepreneurial women in Nigeria’s North-central with lending services, training services, saving services, and consultancy services as proxies for MFIs services; there are other services provided by MFIs like insurance that are not covered by this study. Contribution: This study incorporated management consultancy services as one of the variables which have hitherto been neglected or ignored in the models that are to explain the microfinance services in Nigeria.

Abstract

Purpose: The objective of this study is to explore the types and nature of management control practices and how they influence the business performance of two large apparel manufacturing companies in Sri Lanka. Research methodology: The research uses in-depth multiple case-study approaches based on a Sri Lankan apparel manufacturing company. Data is collected using interviews, participant observations, and documentary evidence. To achieve the objectives, thematic analysis is used as the analysis tool. Results: The findings of the study revealed that the existence of tight, strong, impactful, and effective MCSs (Management Control Systems) leads to both high sales volume and also elevates the annual growth of sales of two main apparel companies in Sri Lanka. Moreover, it is found that the effective placement and use of MCSs have a considerable influence on the profitability of the case companies. Limitations: The main limitation of this study is that it only focuses on two apparel exporting companies in the Sri Lankan apparel industry. Further, this research is a case study-based qualitative research where the inherent shortcomings of any such research are unavoidable where the personal traits of individuals as they place more significance on personal beliefs, opinions, and judgments than the results. Similarly, there is no articulated way to analyze qualitative data in an arithmetical manner. Contribution: This study contributes to the management discipline in the apparel industry in Sri Lanka and steers the Sri Lankan economy in a positive direction, as the research keeps an eye on the apparel industry at large.

Abstract

Purpose: This paper presents a longitudinal evaluation of the research about Directive 2014/95/EU regarding Non-Financial Reporting (NFR), identifying the t theoretical approaches, methodological adopteds, and research topics. Research methodology: Data was collected from the Web of Science (WoS) database, between 2016 and 2021. The search criteria resulted in a total of 59 valid articles, after which we performed a quantitative bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer software. Results: Publications on this Directive 2014/95/EU has increased from 2015 to 2021. Findings show that most articles resorted to quantitative and qualitative methodologies, emphasizing content analysis, combined with other research methods. The frameworks based on stakeholders and institutional theories are very popular in the field. Research is focused on (1) Directive 2014/95/EU regulation, implementation, compliance, and investigation, (2) determinants and impacts of NFR, (3) NFR level/evolution and (4) reasons and skills for NFR. Papers published on EU non-financial information are very heterogeneous and lack consensus as to its impact on NFR. Limitations: This study only included the WoS database as a source of data collection, and it would be valuable in future studies to add other quality databases. Contribution: This research contributes to illuminating institutional pressures implication for NFR development. Therefore, this analysis is essential for institutions operating in accounting information standardization, as well as for information preparers given the necessity to acquire skills to ensure this new challenge related to the reporting of corporate social responsibility.

Abstract

Purpose: Unemployment is a big problem both in developed and less developed countries. This study was aimed at investigating the determinants of youth unemployment in Duna district using cross-sectional survey data gathered in 2020. It is assumed to be a major macroeconomic problem in deriving economic growth and food security. Reducing youth unemployment is crucial to achieving sustainable economic development and alleviating poverty. Research methodology: Multi-stage sampling methods were developed to select the sample from a given population. Through considering the availability of youth unemployed, six kebeles with a sample youth of 361 were selected. Primary and secondary sources of data were used. Descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression were employed for the data analysis. Results: The results of binary logit regression revealed that youth unemployment was significantly affected by age, sex, educational status (secondary and higher education), cultivated land size, marital status, credit use, information use, family wealth, infrastructure, work experiences, and migration. Limitations: This research is limited by the scope, men, and women young unemployed were not equally studied. Without inclusion, women in the studies may not ensure sustainable economic development and alleviate the problem of young unemployment and poverty. Contribution: Ministry of youth, sports and culture, microfinance institutions, and other concerned bodies should give important attention to youth unemployment which is a major problem in achieving economic growth and alleviating poverty. Reduction in the level of youth unemployment would consequently improve youth income and which in turn improve living standards.

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores CSR awareness among the University of Bangladesh students, evaluates perceptions based on socioeconomic and demographic aspects, and considers students' CSR awareness when purchasing a product or applying for a job. Research methodology: First, respondents fill out a questionnaire. The replies are then encoded numerically.  The study examines how demographics affect students' CSR attitudes. Quantitative methods are suitable for determining their relationships. Data must be measured mathematically to determine CSR's effect on student decision-making. Results: The study's findings indicate that students have a solid understanding of corporate social responsibility. Also, age affects perceptions, and educational level influences the majority of perceptions, although gender has no impact on students' perceptions. In addition, students typically do not consider the CSR of a company when they purchase a product from that company or apply for a job with that company. Limitations: The questionnaire method of data collection has various drawbacks. Students may dishonestly answer. Emotional responses and feelings cannot be adequately captured in a survey or questionnaire. The problem of selection bias arises when data is taken from a known individual. There are fewer people in the sample than there are in the population. Contributions: Colleges and universities can better evaluate business courses utilizing the study's results. This study can help government agencies coordinate policy-making. Few studies have examined whether students consider a company's CSR when buying a product or applying for a job. This research comments on that problem.
