Managers think that retaining resources is more effective than rebuilding resources after exhausting them. However, financing constraints have brought great uncertainty to this resource decision-making implemented by managers. Data of manufacturing listed firms in China from 2009 to 2017 are used here to explore the impact of financing constraints on cost stickiness. This paper finds that internal financing constraints have a significant promoting effect on cost stickiness, while debt financing constraints and equity financing constraints have a significant restraining effect on cost stickiness. The internal control quality has a moderation effect on this relationship. In a firm with low quality of internal control, internal financing constraints can enhance cost stickiness, but the weakening effect of external financing on cost stickiness is not affected by internal control quality.

This study examined the characteristics of internal accounting control system based on size of human resources assigned to the system to verify whether downward stickiness of total cost and selling and administrative expenses differentially appears according to the level.An entrepreneur who wishes to maximize one's utility has an incentive to externally grow the enterprise beyond the optimal size or to possess idle resources, creating cost sticking phenomenon by possessing surplus resources even when sales volume decreases. Previous studies verified the effect of control system intended to resolve the agency problem on asymmetry of cost. This study expanded the scope of previous studies to consider internal accounting control system as a monitor of the agency problem. Enterprises that effectively operate internal accounting control system are expected to show limited opportunistic incentive of the entrepreneurs because of reduced agency cost.The main purpose for enterprises to establish and operate internal accounting control system is to provide accurate and reliable financial information to investors by preventing or uncovering accounting scandals of the management and possibility of errors. Internal accounting control system of Korea was first introduced in September 2001 through 'Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act', and Financial Supervisory Service announced the regulation on public announcement in September 2002 as a series of relevant measures. The regulation requires enterprises to publicly announce the number of workers in each department in charge of internal accounting control system on the internal accounting control system report. Under the presumption that internal accounting control can be more effectively done by increasing the number of workers in charge of internal accounting control system, the intent of such public announcement is to provide external interested parties with information that can be used to determine whether internal accounting control system of an enterprise is being effectively managed. Accordingly in this study, enterprises with large size of human resources assigned to internal accounting control system were predicted to show relaxed downward stickiness of cost.As a result of verifying 2,532 enterprise-year samples listed on Korea Stock Exchange between 2003 and 2008, enterprises with larger size of human resources assigned to internal accounting control system were found to show relaxed downward stickiness of cost. This means that an enterprise with large number of workers assigned to internal accounting control system can effectively monitor the enterprise, which can efficiently control opportunistic decisions of the entrepreneur such as downward stickiness of cost. As an additional analysis, human resources were classified into departments to which persons in charge of internal accounting are affiliated to examine the effect on downward stickiness of cost. As a result of verification, high ratio of internal accounting personnel assigned to accounting department resulted in relaxed downward stickiness of cost. Accounting departments in charge of preparing for financial statements were more effectively performing monitoring work compared to other departments.

Cost management is the core issue related to the development of enterprises, and studying enterprise cost behavior will contribute to optimizing enterprise decisions. However, an enterprise is not an independent organization. Instead, it exists and is affected by the macroeconomic environment. So it is conducive for company to apply macroenvironment information to cost management behaviors. This paper studies the cost stickiness based on the perspective of macroeconomic uncertainty, and takes “adjustment cost” and “agency problems” as the internal logic to integrate into the existing interpretation framework of cost stickiness. We analyze SG&A costs for Chinese listed firms over the period 2013 – 2019 after controlling for known economic determinants. The results show a positive relation between the macroeconomic uncertainty and the degree of cost asymmetry. In particular, the macroeconomic uncertainty makes the cost stickiness of human resource cost weaken.

China market economy is in a new period of structural deceleration. Factors, such as fierce external competition and the advancement of the globalization process have put Chinese companies under enormous development pressure. Cost management is very important for improving the utilization rate of resources, the core competitiveness of an enterprise, and achieving the net profit target set by the enterprise. The basis study of cost management is the cost form. After the stickiness of costs is proposed, it has been widely concerned by academia and practice. Managers are the decision-makers of business activities and internal information disclosure. The current shareholding structure of the Chinese government’s macro-control has formed an “insider control” phenomenon, which highlights the importance of managers. Overconfidence of the managers can strongly impact on the manager’s decision-making. Based on this, it is of great significance to study the influence of managers’ overconfidence on the cost stickiness. This paper uses the data of Shanghai and Shenzhen A shares manufacturing companies from 2014 to 2018 to verify the existence of cost stickiness, and then studies the influence of managers’ overconfidence on the cost stickiness. The study found that there is a phenomenon of cost stickiness in listed companies in China’s manufacturing industry. More over, managers’ overconfidence can aggravate the problem of cost stickiness of enterprises. The innovation of the research is as following. Firstly, it enriches the research perspective of the sticky motivation of costs. Secondly, the study extends the research of managers’ overconfidence to the field of cost decision-making.

In the present study, we applied extrusion-cooking to polished rice flour so as to prepare gluten-free pasta. The aim of the work was to investigate the effect of feed moisture (28, 30 and 32%) and screw speed (60, 80 and 100 rpm) on selected rice pasta quality attributes (water absorption, cooking loss, firmness, stickiness and microstructure) and extrusion response (specific mechanical energy). Our results showed that feed moisture significantly affected all tested quality attributes of the rice pasta, while screw speed exhibited a significant effect on all quality attributes except cooking time and stickiness. Moreover, raising the feed moisture increased the cooking time, water absorption, cooking loss, hardness and stickiness, but decreased the firmness at high screw speed. In addition, increasing the screw speed enhanced the cooking loss and hardness, but diminished the water absorption and firmness of pasta with low feed moisture. Rice pasta prepared with 30% moisture content and at 80 rpm showed adequate quality, as confirmed by a firm texture and low cooking loss and stickiness. Microstructure analysis showed a compact and dense internal structure of the dry pasta, and the surface was smooth and even when at least 30% moisture was applied at 80 rpm screw speed during processing.

We investigate whether New Zealand charities exhibit cost stickiness, conceptualized as cost increases in response to an increase in income that are greater than the cost decreases associated with an equivalent decrease in income. Drawing on the holistic accountability rationale, we posit that charity managers consider themselves accountable to a wide range of stakeholders and, therefore, are more concerned about the social impact of their managerial decisions. As a result, charity managers will be reluctant to adjust resources downward immediately after an income drop, as such decisions could lead to the loss of trust and confidence of their internal and external stakeholders. Based on a large sample of charities in New Zealand, we find evidence of cost stickiness. Importantly, we find that cost stickiness varies across a number of characteristics of charities, including charity size, sources of income and expenditure, crisis periods, and the sectors within which the charities operate. Our study contributes to a hitherto unexplored setting and provides empirical evidence on the theoretical debate of hierarchical versus holistic accountability in the not-for-profit sector.

Purpose The literature suggests that management discretion to adjust resources in response to changes in sales can create asymmetric cost behavior and management incentives to move stock prices can influence its decision to release management earnings forecasts (MEF). The purpose of this paper is to investigate the association between a firm’s degree of cost stickiness and its propensity to release MEF. The authors propose that both MEF and cost stickiness are influenced by management strategic choices and provide two possible explanations along with supportive evidence. First, when management is optimistic about future performance, it tends to increase both cost stickiness and is willing to disclose the optimistic expectations through MEF. Second, cost stickiness increases information asymmetry between management and investors, thus management tends to issue earnings forecast to mitigate the perceived information asymmetry. Design/methodology/approach The authors collect firm-level fundamental data from the COMPUSTAT database, and market data from the CRSP database during 2005 and 2016. The data used to measure variables related to institutional ownership and financial analysts are, respectively, obtained from the Thomson Reuters and the I/B/E/S databases. The quarterly MEF data are from two databases. The authors obtain the data before 2012 the from Thomson First Call’s Company Issued Guidance database and manually collect the data between 2012 and 2016 from the Bloomberg database for the largest 3,000 publicly traded US companies. The measurement of cost stickiness is based on the industry-level measurement developed by Anderson et al. (2003) and the firm-level measurements developed by Weiss (2010). The authors construct two measurements, management’s propensity to issue MEF and the frequency of MEF, to capture management’s voluntary disclosure strategy. Findings The analyses of a sample between year 2005 and 2016, indicate that the firm-level cost stickiness is positively associated with the firm’s propensity to issue MEF and the frequency of MEF. Moreover, the authors find that the level of cost stickiness is associated with more favorable earnings news forecasted by management. Additional tests suggest that both information asymmetry and managerial optimism may explain the relationship between cost stickiness and MEF. Finally, the authors find that the association between cost stickiness and MEF behaviors is more pronounced when the resource adjustment cost is high and when the firm efficiency is high. The results are robust after using alternative measurements of cost stickiness and MEF. Originality/value First, this paper attempts to build a bridge between managerial accounting and financial accounting by providing evidence of managerial incentives and discretions that affect both cost structure and earnings. The authors contribute to, and complement, prior studies that primarily disentangle the complicated accounting information system by focusing on either the internal information system or the external information system. Second, the paper complements prior studies that examine cost stickiness and its determinants of asymmetric cost behavior by providing additional evidence for the value-relevance of cost stickiness strategy and its link to MEF releases in mitigating information asymmetry. Third, the findings are also relevant to current debates among policymakers, academia and practitioners regarding modernization of mandatory and voluntary disclosures through discussing the managerial incentive behind the managerial disclosure strategies as reflected in MEF releases (SEC, 2013). Fourth, the authors provide evidence regarding management’s role in influencing cost asymmetry and MEF releases, which support the theoretical argument that management discretions affect the firms’ cost structure and MEF disclosures.

Purpose Based on the theory of customer citizenship behavior (CCB), the purpose of this paper is to explore the antecedents and consequences of investor citizenship behavior in the field of crowdfunding and have an in-depth study of the interaction effect between investors’ perceptions of novelty and investors’ motivations. Design/methodology/approach Based on the CCB theory and self-determination theory, the authors develop hypotheses and collect questionnaire data (a sample of 226 crowdfunding investors) from crowdfunding websites to test models and get conclusions by SPSS and smartPLS 2.0. Findings The results indicate that internal and external motivations significantly influence investors’ citizenship behavior, which further affects investors’ stickiness intentions. Furthermore, results show that investors’ perceptions of novelty moderate the relationships between internal/external motivations and citizenship behaviors. Originality/value This paper offers an in-depth explanation of the citizenship behaviors in crowdfunding, which could be an example for studying the motivations of investors’ citizenship behaviors and could also serve as a starting point to introduce the stickiness intention theory of e-commerce and virtual community into crowdfunding area. In addition, this study also made an empirical analysis of how the perceived project novelty affects the relationships between investors’ motivations and citizenship behaviors.

Abstract Title: Information Technology and the Timing of Knowledge Transfer Methods: A study within six organizations in Sweden Level: Master Thesis for Master’s Degree in Business Administration Author: Anna Thorsell and Filip LarssonSupervisor: Daniella FjellströmExaminer: Ehsanul Huda Chowdhury Date: 2021 June Aim: It has been stated that knowledge transfer processes fail due to poorly timed transfer methods and that it is of importance to understand underlying mechanisms of transfer. It has also been argued that information technology (IT) systems can increase knowledge transfer in organizations. This study aims to research the influence IT has on the timing of transfer methods and knowledge transfer. The authors of this study discovered a gap for the use and timing of IT transfer methods and its influence on knowledge transfer within organizations in existing research. Method: This study included the use of secondary data from a literature review, as well as primary data using a qualitative research method with an inductive approach as semi- structured in-depth interviews were conducted for a multi-case study. The interviews were held with individuals working in six organizations in Sweden. Phases of analysis including content analysis and data coding were used for the analysis and reporting of the data collected. Findings and Conclusion: The study showed that IT provides platforms for knowledge transfer through different types of IT and IT transfer methods used. That the type of IT chosen can depend on the urgency of the transfer, what type of knowledge is transferred as well as the amount of knowledge transferred. That the timing of IT transfer methods I can speed up knowledge transfer as it enables the transfer to happen faster and in later stages of the transfer process due to providing direct knowledge transfer channels and accessible knowledge to all members of a team. It was shown that IT transfer methods can influence internal stickiness, decrease causal ambiguity and reduce the knowledge barrier of arduous relationships as well as influence the use of front-loading and back- loading modes of transfer. That the urgency of transfer can be a determining factor for the modes used rather than the level of causal ambiguity of the knowledge. Contribution of the Study: This study contributes to studies on types of IT and IT transfer methods used in organizations for knowledge transfer. It adds to existing research on timing of knowledge transfer methods including both explicit and tacit knowledge, as well as adding the influence of IT on the timing of knowledge transfer methods, knowledge transfer, internal stickiness, knowledge barriers and affordance of interaction. It provides new findings to the timing of knowledge transfer from the timing of types of IT and IT transfer methods used based on the urgency of transfer and what type of knowledge that is being transferred. The study contributes to highlighting the value of IT for the management of knowledge transfer within organizations, especially due to global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The study provides a basis for managers to examine their use of IT for knowledge transfer in organizations. It also showcases the continuous increased need for effective knowledge transfer processes between organizations, people and across locations and how IT can facilitate that. Study Reflections and Suggestions for Future Research: This study included individuals from six organizations. It is suggested to include more participants for future studies as well as investigating teams, departments and organizations on narrow as well as on broader levels in different sectors to gain deeper insight into the field. Further research on how the urgency of transfer affects the modes of transfer used is also advised.

According to the proir literatures, the cost stickiness comes from the manager’s decision-making, and the value of financial flexibility reflects cash holding and the financial status of the firm which will influence manager’s adjustment resources decisions. This study examines the relationship between cost stickiness and the value of financial flexibility. A firm’s managerial power directly influences manager’s the adjustment of SG&A resources and decision-making. Moreover, firms with better corporate governance structures are able to suppress the cost stickiness caused by the empire-building incentives. Therefore, we consider the moderating effect of the above relationship of CEO power and the material internal control weakness. The empirical results find that firms with high value of financial flexibility will have a high cost stickiness behavior when the single-period sales decrease. And they will have a high cost anti-stickiness behavior when the two-period sales decrease. In other words, financial flexibility has a positive relationship with both cost-stickiness and anti-stickiness. Analyzing the managerial power of firms, it finds that when the single-period sales decrease, the greater the power of the company’s CEO will not affect the relationship between the financial flexibility’s value and the cost-stickiness; but when the two-period sales decrease, the greater CEO power and financial flexibility’s value will reduce cost anti-stickiness. We further consider the quality of internal control and find that the firms without material internal control weakness but with greater CEO power have no influence on the relationship between cost-stickiness and anti-stickiness. However, firms with material internal control weakness and greater CEO power will affect the positive relationship between financial flexibility and cost-stickiness when the single-period sales decrease. And they will not affect the relationship among cost anti-stickiness, financial flexibility’s value and CEO power under the two-period sales decrease.

The past few years have borne witness to a revolution in business with acceleration in the use of the World Wide Web to support or, in many cases, supplant traditional modes of marketing and selling products and services. The Internet consumer base is continually growing. According to a report conducted by Computer Industry Almanac, Inc. (www.c-i-a.com, 1999), 490 million people around the world will have online access by the year 2002. With the rapid increase in the number of online consumers, the managers and marketers are moving to exploit this opportunity to reach millions of customers worldwide. Between 1997-1999, Internet hosts grew from 16 million to over 72 million worldwide (www.isc.org, 2000). The explosive growth of websites raises the question to the Web designer and marketer about how to attract consumer attention to their sites and how to differentiate their sites from other sites.

This chapter discusses how information that supports innovation flows throughout an organization, the construction and effects of team composition, the innovative processes that teams employ, and the development, implementation, and evaluation of systems used to manage the flow and distribution of information. As Allen and Cohen (1969) point out, effective communicators rise in their organizations as a result of their willingness to engage information—by reading and conversing outside of their immediate settings, but as Tushman (1977) explains, that kind of outreach precipitates special boundary roles, which come about to satisfy an organization’s communication network’s role of bridging an internal information network to external sources of information. Thompson (1965) investigates the conditions necessary to move an organization from a single-minded focus on productivity to one of those that facilitate innovation. At times, that means engaging rival firms, and von Hippel (1987) demonstrates that information sharing is economically beneficial to the organizations doing the trading. Freeman’s (1991) finding that information regarding innovative processes entails the development of effective information networks confirms how important it is for successful innovation that there exist effective external and internal communication networks, and that individuals collaborate to share information. von Hippel (1994) returns later in the chapter to qualify this point by showing that there is a direct correlation between the level of stickiness and the expense related to moving that information to a location where it can be applied to solving a problem.

This chapter focuses on stickiness—the factors that allow sites and apps to attract and keep an audience. Critically, many tactics that promote stickiness get cheaper per user as sites get bigger. The Internet thus provides economies of scale in stickiness. Bigger, more popular sites and platforms find it easier to attract still more visitors, and to build up habits of readership. The chapter shows how the economies of scale that shape countless traditional industries, from airlines to automakers, remain powerful in the digital economy. Here, understanding digital audiences starts with digital economies of scale. The goal is to highlight some of the most powerful and best documented forces that skew the game toward the largest players. Size advantages alone are not the full story, after all. But with so many strong economies of scale, of so many different types, in so many different areas of digital media, the chapter argues that it is time to stop pretending that the Internet is a level playing field.

This chapter argues that digital survival depends on “stickiness”—firms' ability to attract users, to get them to stay longer, and to make them return again and again. Stickiness is like a constantly compounding Internet interest rate, in which a small early edge in growth creates a huge long-term gap. The chapter also argues that building a better version of attention economics starts with a key problem: our understanding of the Internet has been lopsided. The forces that disperse digital attention are widely understood, while the forces of concentration are not. The chapter shows that the models of the attention economy that this book proposes are quite general, with much of its evidence coming from the commercial sphere of the Web and digital media—where the dynamics of the attention economy are particularly stark, and where the online dynamics are not so different from familiar offline patterns. But one of the biggest contributions of these models is illuminating areas of the Web that go beyond purely commercial content.

Publishers, technology leaders, academics, and policymakers have proposed a broad and contradictory set of “solutions” to the local news crisis. This chapter argues that preserving local journalism is mostly about helping newspapers make the transition to the digital age. It shows that a dynamic perspective on web traffic leaves room for both hope and skepticism. On one hand, the traffic models suggest that the biggest problems facing local papers are both different and more severe than is generally acknowledged. On the other hand, they suggest concrete ways to increase traffic, and metrics to judge whether changes are working. Dynamic models of web traffic let news organizations move beyond vague calls for “innovation” and “experimentation,” while actually providing metrics for success. From here, the chapter argues that a compounded audience is the most powerful force on the Internet. The success of local news in the digital age depends on this compounding process, on measuring stickiness and optimizing for it.

Virtual communities (VCs) are places on the Web where people can find and then electronically ‘talk’ to others with similar interests. VCs primarily act as coffee shops, where people come and meet each other rather than focusing on content or commerce (Gupta & Kim, 2004). Still there are commercial ones where people can conduct transaction, auction, and commerce. The concept of a virtual community was born in 1993 when the Internet was first established in the United States (Rheingold, 1993). Today, virtual communities are more than just a means of connecting individuals and organisations. Today VCs acts as a business model employed by the digital economy for generating income, primarily through advertising (Reinhard & Wolkinger, 2002). Although virtual communities are still widely popular today, accounting for 84% of the Internet usage in 2002 (Horrigan, 2002), no one has yet agreed on a common definition for the term (Schoberth & Schrott, 2001). Schubert and Ginsberg (2000) defines a virtual community as a shared semantic space where individuals and organisations come together regularly to share common interests and values electronically. The definition varies depending upon the purpose served by the Web site. Based on a comprehensive research, Gupta and Kim (2004) developed a definition based on essential elements of a virtual community and define VC as a groups of like-minded strangers who interact predominantly in cyberspace to form relationships, share knowledge, have fun, or engage in economic transactions (Gupta & Kim, 2004). VCs play a bigger role in many aspects of a member’s life, from forming and maintaining friendships and romantic relationships, to learning, forming opinions, purchasing, and consuming products and services (Hagel & Armstrong, 1997). VCs are also ideal tools for e-commerce, marketing, knowledge building, and e-learning activities. Particularly, VCs add value by providing repeated points of contact which increase the stickiness of the Web site (Laudon & Traver, 2003). People love to interact on Internet and by facilitating their interaction users can be retained on site. The longer they are on site the greater are the chances of making the sale. How do these VCs exactly increase the stickiness of the Web site and how do they add business value to the Web site? To answer these questions we will visit hardwarezone.com (Appendix 1), a Singapore based virtual community which has been phenomenally successful since its inception. But before that we will briefly review the concept of stickiness.

Internet companies are now in the second stage of evolution in which the emphasis is on building brands (Campman, 2001) and retaining customers rather than just transactions. There is also an imperative for multidimensional Web performance monitoring (Earls, 2005) and a continual fine-tuning of sites for optimal navigation, increased stickiness and transactional efficiency. Such research as the relationship between customer profiles and navigational characteristics (Garatti, Sergio, Sergio, & Broccab, 2004) and techniques for seamlessly aggregating Web data with corporate data (Wood & Ow, 2005) also testify to the importance of holistic data analysis for knowledge discovery. The technologies that are becoming critical in this fight for customer retention are data warehousing, data mining and customer relationship management. This article presents two case studies, one on data warehousing and the other on data mining, to draw some very specific lessons about management support, organizational commitment and overall implementation of such projects. These lessons complement past recommendations that these technologies are more about organization change (Kale, 2004), about a single unified view of the business and, ultimately about building a shared data model of the enterprise. We start with a brief overview of data warehousing and data mining. The two cases are discussed next, using a similar analytical structure to facilitate comparison among them. In the conclusion, we describe the key lessons learned from the two cases and implication

Soil physics deals with physical properties of soils such as soil texture, porosity, soil water, soil aeration, soil temperature, soil structure, and the influence of these properties on plant growth. Soil texture refers to the particle-size distribution of soils. The primary soil particles are arbitrarily divided into different size classes. The International Society of Soil Science defines soil particles larger than 0.02 mm and smaller than 2 mm as sand, those larger than 0.002 mm but smaller than 0.02 mm as silt, and those smaller than 0.002 mm as clay. Soil particles larger than 2 mm, such as gravel and stones, are called coarse fragments and are not part of the soil itself, to which the term soil texture applies, but can have considerable influence on soil properties and plant growth. Sand particles (0.02-2 mm) can be further divided into fine sand (0.02-0.2 mm) and coarse sand (0.2-2 mm). Sand particles can be rounded or angular, and are noncohesive. They usually consist of a single mineral, usually quartz (SiO2) or other primary silicate, and may appear brown, yellow, or red as a result of Fe-oxide coatings. Due to its mineral composition, sand has a smaller plant-nutrient content than finer soil particles. Sand particles have large voids between them which promote drainage of water and entry of air into the soil. Due to their low specific surface area, sand particles can hold little water, therefore rain needs to be received at short intervals to enable plant growth on sandy soils. Silt particles (0.002-0.02 mm) do not feel gritty when rubbed between fingers and are not visible to the unaided eye as sand particles are. Quartz is generally the dominant mineral. However, when silt is composed of weatherable minerals, the release of plant nutrients can be significant. The pores between silt particles are smaller and more numerous than those in sand, and silt therefore retains more water than sand, which helps to sustain plant growth. Silt itself does not exhibit much stickiness or plasticity and is therefore easily washed away by water. If silt fractions have some cohesion and adsorptive capacity, it is due to a film of adhering clay particles.
