In this paper, an effort is taken to fish out the inherent backwardness of sugar industry in Bangladesh by applying the multiple regression analysis. The prime objective of the research is to describe the present situation of backwardness of production level and to find out a technique to increase the production level of sugar mills in Bangladesh. Data is chosen from secondary sources i.e. performance reports, annual reports of the selected sample sugar mills and reports of the BSFIC. The total sugar production (Yprod.) is treated as dependent variable and LSM = XLSM (loss of sugar in molasses), RMC = XRMC (Repair and maintenance cost), MH = XMH (Machine hours), UEU = XUEU (Units of energy used) and RR = XRR (Recovery rate) are selected independent variables under the study period. It is implied from analysis that 1 percent decrease in loss of sugar in molasses would result in 7939.63 units upturn in the gross output of sugar if the other factors remain to keep unchanged in the mean position. The coefficient of MH, UEU and RR was found significant at 1 percent level by positive sign indicating these variables had positive impact on sugar production process. It also indicated that 1 percent increase in MH, UEU and RR would result in 3.49 units, 56.59 units and 1174.73 units total production of sugar respectively if other components holding unchanged position at the mean level for each of the variables including in the model. So that the management could increase the amount of total production 9137.63 units by taking the necessary action to increase 1 percent of recovery rate (RR) and at the same time to decrease 1 percent of loss of sugar in molasses (LSM) under the technical arrangement of production procedure of sugar....
This paper proposes a referencable pattern of the recovery of the consumption sector, a new dimension to observe and evaluate the intrinsic value of the consumption sector, and proposes the concept of sensory-based consumption and the ranking of the weights of different categories; creates the concept of digital consumption index , coupled with digital RMB index and China-style digital economy index . Finally, we explain the internal logic of digital consumption as a consumption upgrade tool and a higher valuation target in the context of China’s economic performance in 2022 and the Chinese government’s policy in 2023, leading to the investment strategy of roller conduction effect....
Previous researchers have reviewed brand value, including during decision- making on mergers and acquisitions, but there is a lack of reviews in which brand valuation has been explored post-merger. The purpose of this review was to address this gap in the literature by presenting a synthesis of the literature on brand valuation post-merger across different industries. To conduct this review of literature, I used a modified systematic review method and conducted a descriptive analysis, utilizing existing literature to obtain evidence as well as to enhance current understanding. From the databases queried, I discovered several studies that met the criteria for inclusion. Findings showed that, while the importance of valuing brand equity in the merger and acquisition process has been noted, few studies focus on this process itself. Findings showed that brand valuation is affected by the merger and acquisition process, resulting in various brand value outcomes. Additionally, across different sectors, the impact of brand valuation on customers post-merger was similar. The findings of the review highlight the need for executives preparing for a future merger and acquisition to recognize that a successful merger requires accurate brand valuation both during the merger and acquisitions process and post-merger, in addition to effective strategies for integrating the targeted company’s brand with the acquirer company....
This study is based on Nestle S.A.’s investment in Nigeria and through this example of foreign direct investment (FDI), the study highlights the reasons multinational firms exist, the roles they play and the impacts they make in our global economy. We present details about Nestle S.A., Nestle S.A.’s investment in Nigeria and the reasons for the investment, its impacts on the Nigerian economy and the ways government policies have affected the strategies of the multinational....
Consumer behavior is essential for the success of businesses in the retail sector, as it allows for the design of effective marketing strategies and the improvement of customer relationships. In Ecuador, the retail sector has experienced significant growth, and companies must stay informed about trends and behavior patterns to remain competitive. This study examines consumer behavior in the retail sector of Loja, Ecuador, and determines how perceptions influence their purchasing preferences. Simple random probability sampling was employed, with surveys administered to 500 individuals across various commercial sectors within the city. Responses were analyzed using the SPSS statistical software. The results revealed valuable information regarding the preferences, characteristics, and perceptions of consumers in Loja. Relationships were identified between consumer perception and consumption dimensions in the retail sector, allowing for the establishment of relevant conclusions.
