确定建设项目或行业基准内部收益率的初步探讨

随着经济改革的不断深入，在项目经济评价中，国内所使用的基于20世纪80年代经济形势下测算发布的基准内部收益率指标，已经很难满足目前经济环境下的要求。文章力图从基准内部收益率的构成出发，寻求如何更合理地制定基准内部收益率的方法。     

建设项目评价中加权平均成本的确定及其作用

现行财务基准收益率不敌视尖于社会主义市场经济的发展对项目评价的需要，资金加权平均成本作为一种确定财务折现率和基准收益率的计算方法在国外项目评价中被广泛应用。文中介绍了资金加权平均成本的计算方法及其作用。     

现金流量法在项目经济评价与矿业权评估中的应用

目前，现金流量法在项目经济评价和矿业权评估中已得到广泛应用。根据建设部第三版《方法与参数》及国土资源部第三版《矿业权评估指南》中有关参数确定的原则，采用现金流量法对同一项目进行财务评价及矿业权评估时，当项目财务评价基准收益率大于矿业权评估折现率时，其项目评价的内部收益率小于该项目的基准收益率，故出现了该项目财务评价结论为不可行的问题。为解决上述问题，笔者提出了对相关参数选取确定的改进建议。     

房地产项目经济评价中基准收益率设定的探讨

目前我国在项目投资评价中仍采用在经济条件下制定的基准收益率,这已经不符合我国目前市场经济的要求。房地产作为我国的支柱性产业,更不适合采用此基准收益率。借鉴目前国际上使用较为广泛成熟的加权平均资本成本方法,提出适合我国国情的基准收益率的确定方法。

基于CAPM模型对能源行业企业资产预期收益率的测算研究

能源行业发展对于社会经济发展至关重要,而能源行业企业资产预期收益率测算是能源行业企业面临的一大难题。利用无风险收益率、风险系数与能源市场组合的收益率3个参数,构建标准CAPM模型,对能源行业企业资产预期收益率进行测算行之有效。根据国家的国债与存款利率确定无风险收益率;利用能源市场组合在不同时刻的收盘指数,确定能源市场组合的收益率;通过单一能源行业企业资产,同能源市场投资组合的斜方差与市场方差的比值,确定风险系数,由此利用CAPM模型计算预期收益率。以某省域能源行业企业为目标,分析目标资产预期收益率,结果显示:能源行业风险系数值同不同企业的资产预期收益率间具有显著的正相关性;能源行业中部分企业的资产预期收益的风险与能源市场组合风险相比较高;预期收益率产生差异的主要原因为不同能源销售对象的能源销售价格具有差异性。     

Investigating the implications of business and culture on the behaviour of customers of international firms

For many years international firms have been leveraging from the consistent growth rate of the Indian economy and, considering forecasts, will continue to do so in the future. This study identifies factors that influence the behaviour of business customers of international firms in emerging markets such as India. Based on the extant literature and in-depth personal interviews with practitioners, combined with a field survey, the authors have tried to understand the impact these factors have on the behaviour of business customers of international firms. The data were useful for testing the model developed using regression analysis and were found to be significant. The model demonstrates that the behaviour of local firms as customers of international firms in emerging markets is governed by factors such as business risk and a propensity to business sustainability. The model will be useful for international firms who wish to operate in emerging markets through local business firms that seek to associate with international firms.     

The impact of firm cost and market size asymmetries on national mergers in a three-country model

This paper studies the impact of firm cost and market size asymmetries on merger decisions. I consider a model where a small and a large country compete in a third (world) market. Each of the two countries has two firms (with potentially different costs) that supply the domestic market and export to the third market. Merger decisions in the two countries are modeled as a simultaneously move game. The paper finds that firms in the large country have more incentives to merge than firms in the small country. In contrast, the government of the large country has more incentives to block a merger than the government of the small country. Thus, the model predicts that conflicts of interest between governments and firms concerning national mergers are more likely in large countries than in small ones.     

The Impact of Product Market Competition on Employment Determination in Unionised and Non-Unionised Firms: Firm Level Evidence for the U.K.

In this paper we investigate the effect of increasedcompetition on employment inunionised andnon-unionised firms. We model product and labourmarket imperfections, and their interactions, in Nashequilibrium. The model predicts that employment lossin unionised firms in the face of increasedcompetition will be lower compared with non-unionisedfirms. This paradoxical outcome results from anoffsetting beneficial employment effect ofcompetition, which eliminates wage mark-ups inunionised firms. We find empirical support for thetheoretical prediction using U.K. firm level data overthe period 1985–1989.     

Price Dispersion on the Internet: Good Firms and Bad Firms

Internet firms charge a wide range of prices for homogeneous products, and high-priced firms remain high-priced and low-priced firms remain low-priced over long periods. One explanation is that high-price firms are charging a premium for superior service. An alternative, price-dispersion explanation is that firms vary the prices for informed and uniformed consumers (Salop and Stiglitz, 1977) or serious shoppers and others (Wilde and Schwartz, 1979). The pricing pattern for a digital camera and a flatbed scanner is consistent with the price-dispersion model and inconsistent with the service-premium hypothesis.     

The effects of personal information on competition: Consumer privacy and partial price discrimination

This article studies the effects of consumer information on the intensity of competition. In a two dimensional duopoly model of horizontal product differentiation, firms use consumer information to price discriminate. I contrast a full privacy and a no privacy benchmark with intermediate regimes in which the firms can profile consumers only partially. I show that with partial privacy firms are always better-off with price discrimination: the relationship between information and profits is hump-shaped. In particular, competing firms prefer to target consumers with partial but asymmetric information about preferences. Instead, consumers prefer either no or full privacy in aggregate, but the effects of information on individual surplus are ambiguous: there are always winners and losers. Finally, I study the information acquisition incentives of the firms when there is an external data seller. When this upstream data broker holds partially informative data, an exclusive allocation arises. Instead, when data is fully informative, each competitor acquires consumer data but on a different dimension. These findings are relevant for the strategic decisions of firms active in digital markets and contribute to the policy debate surrounding privacy, exclusive access to data and competition.     

The venture capital entry model on game options with jump-diffusion process

This paper aims to apply game options to construct the optimal decision-making and management tool for venture capital (VC) firms. This model emphasizes the inferences with game options on the market structures formed by different competition and investment strategies of the two VC firms to reflect the investment returns. These market structures are classified into an entry-deterred game (specific monopoly), a leader's dominated strategies (duopoly), and simultaneous investment. It is considered how to select investment timing to avoid any potential competitive threats in order to provide the optimal expected threshold values for the investment decisions of VC firms.     

How to approach business model innovation: the role of opportunities in times of (no) exogenous change

Firms need to show dynamic adaptability and innovate their business models to achieve survival and growth, in particular when they are exposed to high levels of exogenous change. However, business model innovation also takes place in the absence of exogenous change. We know relatively little about firms’ approaches to opportunities for business model innovation in both of these environmental settings. The objective of this study is to understand how firms exposed to various environmental conditions explore and exploit business model innovation opportunities. In a qualitative multiple case analysis, the study compares the approaches to business model innovation used by four firms exposed to high levels of exogenous change with those of four firms operating in the absence of exogenous change. The findings are contrasted with entrepreneurial opportunity discovery and creation theories. The results reveal that firms exposed to high levels of exogenous change focus on discovering objective opportunities, whereas firms operating in the absence of exogenous change concentrate on creating opportunities for business model innovation. However, this study revealed that when the firms further explore and exploit these opportunities, they tend to combine the behaviours that the two opportunity perspectives suggest. This study contributes to the literature on business model innovation by emphasising the relationship between environmental context and approach to business model innovation and by reinforcing the link with entrepreneurship theory.     

The impact of entrepreneurial orientation on B2B branding and business growth in emerging markets

This study examines the relation between entrepreneurial orientation and brand orientation in industrial small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and the extent to which the two contribute to business growth in emerging markets. The authors develop and empirically test a structural model using data collected from Hungary, a country that has undergone a political and economic transition during the past two decades since the fall of the iron curtain. The results show that entrepreneurial orientation has a positive effect on business growth in emerging markets, whereas brand orientation has an adverse effect. Furthermore, the study examines whether there are differences (1) between B2B firms and B2C firms operating in emerging markets and (2) between B2B firms operating in emerging markets (Hungary) and in developed markets (Finland). The results from comparative analyses suggest that while B2B firms and B2C firms do not differ significantly from each other, there are notable differences between emerging markets and developed markets. Specifically, the study finds that although brand orientation does not contribute to business growth in Hungarian B2B firms, it has a positive effect on growth in B2B firms operating in Finland.
