Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to examine whether corporate social responsibility influences the cost of equity capital of firms operating in controversial industry sectors. Design/methodology/approach This paper computes the ex-ante cost of equity capital implied in analyst earnings forecasts and stock prices for a sample of 2,006 US firm-year observations belonging to controversial industry sectors (alcohol, tobacco, gambling, military, firearms, nuclear power, oil and gas, cement and biotechnology) during the period 1991-2012. The baseline regression model links CSR score to the implied cost of equity capital (ICC) and controls for firm-specific characteristics, industry factors and economic or market-wide factors. This model enables to capture the differential effect of CSR on ICC when the firm belongs to a specific sector of the controversial industries by adding an interaction term between CSR and the dummy variable representing this belonging. Findings The findings show two main results. First, CSR engagement significantly reduces the implied cost of equity capital (ICC) in all controversial industry sectors, taken as a group, as well as in each one of these sectors individually. Second, this effect is more pronounced when the firm belongs to the alcohol and tobacco industry sectors. Practical implications The findings have two important practical implications. First, they should increase managers’ confidence and incentives, in controversial industry sectors, to pursue CSR activities. Second, policymakers can encourage managers to undertake CSR initiatives in controversial industry sectors through tax incentives (e.g. reduce taxes for CSR related investment projects). Originality/value This paper extends prior studies that investigate the perceptions of capital market participants of firm’s CSR commitment (Sharfman and Fernando, 2008; Goss and Roberts, 2011; El Ghoul et al., 2011; Jo and Na, 2012; Bouslah et al., 2013) by examining the effect of CSR on ICC in the controversial industry sectors. It contributes to the debate around the relevance of CSR in controversial sectors by providing evidence of the reduction effect of CSR activities on ICC in controversial industries and by showing that this reduction impact is more pronounced when the firm belongs to alcohol, tobacco industry sectors.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of the Official Scrutineer in the annual film awards ceremony of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), a role currently occupied by the audit firm Deloitte. The case of BAFTA provides an illustrative example of the increasing demand for discretionary assurance services from audit firms (Free et al., 2009), which in turn is reflective of Power's (1997) “audit society”. It showcases the power of audit as a legitimating tool. The paper seeks to understand the role of the auditor as assurance provider by drawing upon Goffman's (1959) dramaturgical framework. Viewing the auditor as “performer” and a range of interested stakeholders (BAFTA voting members, sponsors, award winners and industry commentators) as the “audience”, this theoretical lens facilitates insights into the nature of assurance provision. Design/methodology/approach – The paper gathers interview data from within the case organization (BAFTA), it's Official Scrutineers (Deloitte), BAFTA voting members, sponsors, award winners and film industry commentators. Findings – Drawing on Goffman's (1959) work on impression management to inform its theoretical argumentation, the analysis of results from 36 interviews indicates that Deloitte are highly effective in delivering a successful performance to their audience; they convey a very convincing impression of trust and assurance. The paper therefore suggests the importance of performance ritual in the auditor's role as assurance provider. Additionally, it argues that such a performance may be particularly effective, in the eyes of the audience, when played by a well known audit firm. Originality/value – The paper highlights the expanding territorial scope of assurance provision by audit firms. By focusing on a glamorous media event, it also furthers an understanding of the role of accounting within the domain of popular culture.

Abstract:
Synopsis The case describes the efforts of a small Brazilian publishing house to export its products to foreign markets. In fact, after several years of losses, the firm has undergone substantial restructuring and hired a new CEO, reaching modest profitability. The challenge faced by the new management team includes, in addition to keeping the firm financially healthy, to develop an international orientation, to mobilize the resources, and to develop a new strategy to go international. Research methodology The case uses primary and secondary sources, including articles from business magazines and newspapers, company site, and data from Brazilian trade organizations, Brazilian federal government, International Trade Center, International Publishers Association, and an interview with the new CEO of the firm, in charge of developing its international activities. The use of different sources permitted triangulation. Relevant courses and levels The case is designed for use in undergraduate and graduate programs in courses related to international marketing, international business, entrepreneurship, and international entrepreneurship. Theoretical bases The case can be used to discuss the role of networks in the internationalization of the firm and the issue of distance to foreign markets (Ghemawat, 2001), using Ghemawats CAGE model. The case can also be utilized to examine barriers to the internationalization of smaller firms (Leonidou et al., 2007; Kahiya, 2013).

Abstract:
Purpose This research aims to examine the effect of ownership structure on dividend policy using the Indonesian context. The most common ownership structure is concentrated in the hand of family owners except in the UK and USA (La Porta et al., 1998, 2000). Family owners hold more than half of the companies in Indonesia (Carney & Child, 2013; Claessens et al., 2000). Family firms play an important role in Indonesia. Another important characteristic that emerges is the rise of government- and foreign-controlled firms in Indonesia. Thus, this research also divides ownership concentration into family firms, government-controlled and foreign-controlled firms. Design/methodology/approach Samples of this research consist of dividend announcements during 2006-2012 in Indonesian Stock Exchange. This research excluded financial data because these have characteristics that are different non-financial sectors’ characteristics. The final sample of this research consists of a 710 firm-year observation. Findings The result of this research shows that ownerships have a positive effect on dividend payout. This research divides the sample into family-controlled firms, government-controlled firms (GOEs) and foreign-controlled firms. This research shows that government- and foreign-controlled firms have a positive impact on dividend payout. However, family firms have a negative effect on the dividend payout. Family firms pay lower dividends because they prefer to control it themselves. Family firms earn benefit from those resources, but at the expense of minority shareholders. Thus, family firms engage in expropriation to minority shareholders. Research limitations/implications This study focuses on ownership structure of Indonesian listed firm. This study does not analyze the impact of other corporate governance mechanism such as board structure on dividend decisions. The owner of the companies (family, government and foreign firm) has an opportunity to put their member as part of board members. However, this study does not analyze the impact of board structure on dividend decisions. Originality/value This study provides evidence that ownership concentration positively affects dividend payout. However, there is a different effect of ownership structure (family-controlled firms, GOEs and foreign-controlled firm). Government- and foreign-controlled have a positive effect; however, family-controlled firm have a negative effect on dividend payout. Therefore, this study provides evidence of the importance of ownership structure on dividend decision.

Abstract:
Purpose – This strategy-learning case traces the growth of AlphaTech, a publicly traded company in Brazil that is a management software company. The purpose of this paper is to debate whether or not the firm should give more emphasis to internationalization, given its high market share in Brazil, where further gains may be very expensive and difficult. The case is intended to serve as a vehicle to discuss the internationalization process of a software firm from an emerging economy. Design/methodology/approach – The case was built using several sources of information, including interviews with two executives in charge of the firm's internationalization process, articles in business newspapers and magazines, a book written by the firm co-founders, reports, and information gathered in the internet. Findings – The main issues posed by this case study are: first, the difficulties faced by an emerging market firm to get a sustainable position in international markets; second, the challenges of competing with powerful global multinational corporations (such as SAP and Oracle) in the international marketplace; and third, the need to adapt the firm's international strategy to new threats and opportunities. Originality/value – The Brazilian context differs from other BRICS, since Brazilian software firms do not have access to low-cost labor and therefore cannot adopt a low price strategy to compete effectively in international markets, but rather need to build unique capabilities to overcome liabilities of foreignness.

Abstract:
The way in which the boundaries of a firm are defined also determines its responsibilities. Besides the firm’s goals of profitability and survival, there are implications beyond its physical boundaries, such as sustainability. There are several definitions of the boundaries of a firm, each one with its own implications. Considering external resources related to the firm may allow decision makers to take responsibility for what takes place beyond its frontiers. Because firms are not isolated, sustainability goes beyond the boundaries of the firm and requires incorporating external factors.The relation of a firm with its external factors can be established in several dimensions; one of them is considering the relation of the firm with its environment. In this study, we reviewed literature on firm boundaries and found out that the boundaries, limits, and responsibilities of firms are not sharply defined. An interesting point is that the boundaries of the firm can be expanded to account for external resources and the impact of the firm’s activities, so that the firm may take steps to reduce its green footprint and contribute to sustainability from the perspective of the triple bottom line, which includes economic, social, and environmental aspects.

Abstract:
In recent years, a breakthrough in statistical physics has occurred. Simply put, statistical physicists have determined that physical systems which consist of a large number of interacting particles obey universal laws that are independent of the microscopic details. This progress was mainly due to the development of scaling theory. Since economic systems also consist of a large number of interacting units, it is plausible that scaling theory can be applied to economics. To test this possibility we study the dynamics of firm size. This may help to build a more complete characterization of the nature and processes behind firm growth. To date, the study of firm dynamics has primarily focused on whether small firms on average have higher growth rates than large firms. To a lesser extent, attention has been placed on the relationship between firm size and variation in growth rate. Our research goes beyond these questions by looking at the relationship between numerous firm characteristics and the entire distribution of growth rates. Thus, it may provide a better understanding of the mechanisms behind firm dynamics. In contrast to previous studies, this research analyzes data over many time scales, instead of just a single time interval. From a scientific standpoint, this work could be useful because it will affect the formulation of firm modeling—one of the basic building blocks of all economic analysis. In addition, this work will have practical applications. For example, there are Federal policies that are designed to encourage small businesses. While such policies might be justified on grounds other than their contribution to growth, any systematic difference in the growth rates of small and large firms might be relevant for evaluating such policies. Also, there has traditionally been a concern that an excessive amount of economic activity might become concentrated in a small number of firms. A more detailed understanding of the firm growth process will provide evidence for whether such concerns have any scientific foundation.

Abstract:
This study seeks a model for Knowledge Management in project based firms. The work process in these firms is getting on a contract with a client over a project which is to be delivered in a certain period of time and with a certain amount of budget. Depending on the type and specification of the project, the firm achieves or creates some knowledge which is almost tacit. The concern here is that this tacit knowledge is lost by the end of the project, whether due to time limitations and rush for delivering the project which makes it impossible for the firm to turn this knowledge into explicit; or it goes away with the workers since they are generally project-loyal not company-loyal. Based on the literature this study reveals that KM can act as powerful instrument for increasing project-based firms’ performance and hence raise their chances for absorbing more projects. However this is a two-sided fact; clients have more faith in those firms with loaded with high-level experiences while the chances are higher for satisfying clients in those firms which manage their knowledge gained from earlier projects.

Abstract:
Gods, Have Merced! chronicles the struggle of Jose Merced, a Santeria priest, with the city of Euless, Texas, where he has been residing for 17 years in an effort to overrule an ordinance that bans the most critical element of his faith: animal sacrifice. As the city officials justify the ban on the basis of public health, Merced thinks he is merely a victim of selective code enforcement aimed a restricting his freedom of religion. Local and national media covered the lawsuit he filed against the City of Euless, and Merced seems ready to take the fight over animal sacrifice to the United States Supreme Court. He wants American justice to give his African-originated religion recognized in a city where people seem uneasy about a practice that brings back the historic fears of Voodoo and its popularly assumed malefic practices. The film explores the complex structure of Santeria, its African roots, its renaissance in the Americas and the very controversial issue of animal sacrifice in the US.

Full text
Abstract:
Stephen Goss composed Cinema Paradiso, a six-movement suite for solo guitar, as an homage to films and film directors. Goss cites nihilism as a theme in Dogville, the film that inspires the fourth movement, "Mandalay," but I assert that all the films and many musical devices throughout the piece can be read through the lens of nihilism. The first movement, "Paris, Texas," depicts the stark landscape of the opening scene of the 1984 Wim Wenders film of the same name. "Modern Times" chronicles Charlie Chaplin's slapstick-laden descent from the factory to the insane asylum in the opening sequence of his 1936 Modern Times. "Noir" is a tribute to the procedures of film noir: violent storylines that depict the harshness of life, dim lighting, and anti-hero characters, all accompanied by jazz. Lars von Trier's Dogville provides the movement "Mandalay" with its nihilistic meaning, but Goss writes that he invokes the musical style of Kurt Weill's opera The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny. Just as the book people of François Truffaut's Fahrenheit 451 had to pass on books orally, Goss has burned the score for his "451," forcing guitarists to learn it by watching a video and listening to a recording. Finally, the chaotic tarantella, "Tarantino" depicts Uma Thurman's heroin overdose scene in Quinten Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. By analyzing Fredrich Nietzsche's writings to form a broader definition of nihilism and applying that definition first to each film and then to corresponding musical elements in each movement, this paper argues that nihilism acts as a connecting theme throughout Cinema Paradiso.

Full text
Abstract:
The narrative structure and formal style of the director Shinoda Masahiro's films reveal his ethical objective to encourage his viewer to engage with works of cinematic representation as the creative products of human agency that they are. Within his period films, Shinoda hopes to stimulate recognition of cinema's genealogical inheritance and reproduction of the absolutist propositions underlying traditional Japanese cultural forms. He posits that these have redirected essential human drives into masochistic self-effacement in tribute to a divine ideal imaged in the Imperial polity. By disrupting the illusion of cinematic realism which simply serves to reinforce Japanese culture's existent intertextual networks, Shinoda seeks to reground cultural expressions in their material and human origins. This acts as the first step to imagining a Japanese subject outside of the limited definitions posed by nostalgic absolutism and its reactionary antithesis in the equally self-destructive mode of global capitalism.

Abstract:
This study examines African American stereotypes in film. I studied six directors, Kathryn Bigelow, Spike Lee, the Russo Brothers, Ryan Coogler, Tate Taylor, and Dee Rees; and six films Detroit, BlacKkKlansman, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Help, and Mudbound. Using the framework of critical race theory and auteur theory, I compared the common themes between the films and directors. The main purpose of my study is to see if White or Black directors predominantly used African American stereotypes. I found that both races of directors rely on stereotypes for different purposes. With Black directors, the stereotype was explained further through character development, while the White directors used the stereotype at face value with no further explanation.

Abstract:
Religion och film är ett ämne som fångat mångas intresse, inte minst de som önskar veta huruvida film är ett lämpligt medium för religion och för de som önskar använda filmer i sin religionsundervisning. Denna undersökning kom till för att ge svar på några sådana funderingar genom att undersöka hur två filmatiseringar, Prince of Egypt och Exodus Gods and Kings, skiljer sig från ursprungsberättelsen kring Exodus som finns i andra Moseboken. För att göra detta togs tre frågeställningar fram; om det finns skillnader mellan filmateringarna och grundhistorien och hur dessa i så fall yttrar sig, hur dessa eventuella skillnader påverkar berättelsens framställning samt huruvida filmatiseringarna kan användas i ett undervisningssammanhang. Undersökningen gjordes genom att använda en komparativ metod för att jämföra utvalda scener ur berättelsen med deras motsvarighet i filmatiseringarna och undersöka aspekter så som tidshantering, karaktärer och vilken typ av text de bedöms vara utifrån några förvalda kriterier. Resultatet visade att det finns stora skillnader i tidshanteringen i de utvalda scenerna och att många karaktärer fick en marginell roll som inte uppfyllde samma syfte i filmatiseringarna som de gjorde i den ursprungliga historien. Det gick också att utröna att filmatiseringarna främst var berättande snarare än beskrivande och alltså inte hade återberättande som sitt huvudsakliga syfte utan snarare underhållning. Baserat på dessa resultat kunde slutsatsen dras att det finns ett flertal olika skillnader mellan filmatiseringarna och ursprungshistorien och att dessa påverkar berättelsens framställning i hög grad. Hur framställningen påverkas av dessa ändringar hade behövt undersökas ytterligare. Det gick även att dra slutsatsen att de inte är lämpliga att använda i ett undervisningssammanhang utan att göra eleverna medvetna om de skillnader som finns och föra en diskussion kring dem, vilket är högst tidskrävande.

Abstract:
The methods in which e-books can be purchased vary greatly compared to print books. In the past, a print book was purchased either as an individual title (firm order) or through an approval plan. Once the books were received, there was little deviation in how the items were processed – purchase orders were created, books were processed, invoices were input and paid. However, with e-books, the work is more complex and there are a many ways to purchase e-books – firm order, Demand (or Patron) Driven Acquisiton (DDA), Evidence Based Acquisition (EBA), yearly front-file purchases, back-file purchases, or subscription to e-book packages. Each of the methods involves a workflow that goes from easy to somewhat complex. This begs the question of whether the acquisitions workflow can or should influence how e-books are purchased.

Abstract:
This paper is aimed at investigating the effects of graphene oxide platelet (GOP) geometry (i.e., lateral size and thickness) and oxygen functionalization on the cooling and lubrication performance of GOP colloidal suspensions. The techniques of thermal reduction and ultrasonic exfoliation were used to manufacture three different types of GOPs. For each of these three types of GOPs, colloidal solutions with GOP concentrations varying between 0.1–1 wt% were evaluated for their dynamic viscosity, thermal conductivity and micromachining performance. The ultrasonically-exfoliated GOPs (with 2–3 graphene layers and lowest in-solution characteristic lateral length of 120 nm) appear to be the most favorable for micromachining applications. Even at the lowest concentration of 0.1 wt%, they are capable of providing a 51% reduction in the cutting temperature and a 25% reduction in the surface roughness value over that of the baseline semi-synthetic cutting fluid. For the thermally-reduced GOPs (with 4–8 graphene layers and in-solution characteristic lateral length of 562–2780 nm), a concentration of 0.2 wt% appears to be optimal. The findings suggest that the differences seen between the colloidal suspensions in terms of their droplet spreading, evaporation and the subsequent GOP film-formation characteristics may be better indicators of their machining performance, as opposed to their bulk fluid properties.

Abstract:
This paper reports an experimental study on falling film evaporation of water on 6-row horizontal configured tube bundles in a vacuum. Three types of configured tubes, Turbo-CAB-19fpi and −26fpi, Korodense, including smooth tubes for reference, were tested in a range of film Reynolds number from about 10 to 110. Results show that as the falling film Reynolds number increases, falling film evaporation goes from tubes partial dryout regime to fully wet regime; the mean heat transfer coefficients reach peak values in the transition point. Turbo-CAB tubes have the best heat transfer enhancement of falling film evaporation in both regimes, but Korodense tubes’ overall performances are better when tubes are fully wet. The inlet temperature of heating water has hardly any effects on the heat transfer, but the evaporation pressure has controversial effects. A correlation with errors within 10% was also developed to predict the heat transfer enhancement capacity.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of oscillations in the main flow on film cooling at various single frequencies at a low average blowing ratio of M = 0.5. The oscillations in the main flow could be a result of combustion instabilities that have been one of the major concerns for gas turbine industry. Understanding the effect of the instabilities on film cooling is important for better design of the gas turbine engines. The frequencies from 268 to 2144 Hz were identified as the dominant frequencies from a Fourier analysis of a combustor instability data on pressure oscillations. Lastly, the experimental data on gas turbine combustor instabilities is applied to the main flow using Fourier Series and the results are compared to those at single frequencies. Numerical simulations are carried out using LES Smagorinsky-Lilly and URANS k-epsilon models. This study is focused on film cooling effectiveness and heat transfer coefficient which are very important in calculation of the blade temperatures. The results show that as the frequency of the main flow goes from 0 to 180 Hz, the film cooling effectiveness is decreased due to enhancement of jet lift off with increasing frequency. However, when the frequency goes from 180 to 268 Hz, the film cooling effectiveness climbs up sharply because a thin coolant film near the wall is overlapped by large vortices containing the coolant. If the frequency changes from 268 to 1072 Hz, the effectiveness drops because the large vortices generated catch up with each other and they start overlapping and they are moved away from the wall. Main flow frequencies from 1072 to 2144 Hz cause an increase of the film cooling effectiveness since the coolant jet could not respond to these very high frequencies and the coolant behavior starts to return to that at 0 Hz gradually along with the effectiveness. In terms of heat transfer coefficients, when the oscillation frequency climbs from 0 to 536 Hz, the spanwise-averaged Stanton number ratio (Stm/Sto) increases due to growing disturbances in the flow. If the frequency is increased from 536 to 2144, the spanwise-averaged Stanton number ratio is decreased. When the oscillation frequency exceeds 536 Hz, the mixing between the hot mainstream and the coolant is reduced because jets do not respond to the flow oscillations as quickly by very short period.

Abstract:
A significant feature of gravity-driven film flows of Newtonian and rheologically complex fluids down an inclined/vertical substrate is the instability of the free surface which manifests as surface waves having wavelengths much larger than the film thickness. There are a number of applications which can be modeled as thin film flow systems on porous substrates. Pascal [1] investigated the stability of a falling power-law film on an inclined porous substrate. This model for the fluid predicts a viscosity that goes to infinity as the shear rate approaches zero. There is a need to employ a more appropriate model to examine the effects of non-Newtonian rheology on the dynamics and stability of thin film free surface flows down inclined or vertical rigid/porous substrates. The four-parameter Carreau model predicts a viscosity that remains finite as the shear rate approaches zero and is given by η−η∞η0−η∞=[1+(δγ)˙2]n−12.(1) Weinstein [2] and Rousset et al. [3] have considered the Carreau model and have examined the temporal stability of a film flow down an impermeable rigid inclined substrate. The authors show that a shear-thinning Carreau fluid film on a rigid impermeable substrate is more unstable than a Newtonian film. This calls for an analysis that includes both the effects of Carreau non-Newtonian rheology and bottom permeability and the present study reports such an investigation of a Carreau non-Newtonian film on a porous inclined substrate.

Abstract:
An investigation is carried out the analysis of nonlinear dynamic behavior on effects of rub-impact caused by oil-rupture in a multi-shafts turbine system with a squeeze film damper. Main components of a multi-shafts turbine system includes an outer shaft, an inner shaft, an impeller shaft, ball bearings and a squeeze film damper. In the squeeze film damper, oil forces can be derived from the short bearing approximation and cavitated film assumption. The system equations of motion are formulated by the global assumed mode method (GAMM) and Lagrange’s approach. The nonlinear behavior of a multi-shafts turbine system which includes the trajectories in time domain, frequency spectra, Poincaré maps, and bifurcation diagrams are investigated. Numerical results show that large vibration amplitude is observed in steady state at rotating speed ratio adjacent to the first natural frequency when there is no squeeze film damper. The nonlinear dynamic behavior of a multi-shafts turbine system goes in its way into aperiodic motion due to oil-rupture and it is unlike the usual way (1T = >2T = >4T = >8T etc) as compared to one shaft rotor system. The typical routes of bifurcation to aperiodic motion are observed in a multi-shafts turbine rotor system and they suddenly turn into aperiodic motion from the periodic motion without any transition. Consequently, the increasing of geometric or oil parameters such as clearance or lubricant viscosity will improve the performance of SFD bearing.
