This is a study of earnings quality, examining whether components of earnings based on New Zealand (N.Z.) accounting classification systems have different information parameters. The N.Z. environment provides a unique opportunity to examine a period with no legislative backing of accounting standards and a flexible accounting standard. Combined, this gave mangers the ability to clearly identify earnings components they considered to be differentially informative. Informativeness is assessed by the ability of current period earnings to predict next period earnings and the contemporaneous relati

One of the reasons of such situation is insufficient vocational training of owners and managers, working in Ukraine’s hospitality industry.

Firms participate in network relationships with others to access resources that are not otherwise available. The resources may consist of goods, services, information, advice or support. This flow of resources into a firm has the potential to enhance the capability of a firm to react to the external competitive environment. Generally network relationships can be formal and/or informal. For a small firm, a network is more likely to be informal and have social links with individuals such as family, friends and acquaintances.

Every summer during the Christmas school break, families return to the same caravan park for their annual holiday. Most have an on-going reservation that specifies both the visitation dates and the site location within the caravan park. In some cases, this holiday pattern has been repeated for several generations - at the same caravan park, at the same time of year, and on the same campsite. This thesis explores the nature and significance of repeat visitation using Australian caravan parks as the pl

Abstract:
Since the 1980s the public sector in Australia, including local government, has been imbued with the language of business management. In part, this has occurred because other levels of government have brought changes to the operation of local government and also because public sector managers have accepted the conventional wisdom that the private sector provides the better model for managing large organisations. But how useful is this way of operating in the public sector? This thesis argues that local government management continues to be 'captured' by the dominant ideology of neoliberalism.
