Abstract

With the advancement of the economy, banks have become very connected to one another. This was one of the causes of why the 2008 crisis in USA was so severe. Because of the contagion effect if one bank collapse, the other banks can start to collapse as well. The purpose of this research is to know whether competition and concentration have any influence towards systemic risk. There are two views in the relationship of competition and concentration toward systemic risk. Competition-stability, meaning competition lower systemic risk and competition-fragility, meaning competition increase systemic risk. Another views are concentration-stability, meaning concentration lower systemic risk and concentration-fragility, meaning concentration increase systemic risk.This research uses the data of 33 commercial banks in Indonesia from 2013-2017 that are listed in Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX).

Abstract

To grab the opportunity in the smartphone industry, companies can increase customer’s perceived value by increasing its product’s benefits (quality) or reducing its product’s costs (price). Scholars argue that reducing perceived price could increase perceived value but also reduce perceived quality. This is because perceived quality may mediate the relationship between perceived price and perceived value. Therefore, this research’s objective is to understand the mediation effect in perceived price and perceived value relationship in smartphone industry.This research has collected the data from 70 respondents in Indonesia. The data has passed validity & reliability test and processed using multiple regression analysis with Sobel test. The result of this research finds an insignificant relationship between perceive price and perceived value and a significant relationship between perceived price and perceived quality. Thus, there is no mediation of perceived quality in the relationship between perceived price and perceived value. Furthermore, this research finds a significant relationship between perceived quality and perceived value. Keywords: Perceived price, perceived quality, perceived value, smartphone industry

Abstract

The earlier literature describes cash holdings as having numerous benefits as well as costs that firms have to consider before accumulating cash for transactional and precautionary motives. Most of the literature is focusing on either the benefits or the costs, but some literature such as Azmat (2014) fused both ends into the concept of Optimal Cash Level, in which firm value at its maximum as firms holding cash at that optimal level reap the most benefit and bear the least cost. Thus, this research is conducted to find evidence of an optimal cash level among Indonesian publicly-listed non-financial firms.This research is conducted using 1860 observations coming from non-financial IDX-listed firms for the period of ten years (2008—2017). The result of the regression analysis shows that Indonesian public firms do not adhere to the theory of Optimal Cash Level. The findings could be explained partly by the tendency of firms to avoid underinvestment that may cause failure to capture investment opportunities in the fast-changing Indonesian market. Keywords:Cash, Firm Value, Indonesia, Tobin’s q
