Extended Value Added Intellectual Coefficient in Advanced and Low Technology Manufacturing Companies in Malaysia
The main purpose of this study is to empirically compare of intellectual capital (IC) and its efficiency between advanced and low technology manufacturing companies using a sample of 135 Malaysian listed manufacturing companies during the 2006-2012 period. The manufacturing companies are classified into different sectors based on their products and services (Standard Industrial Classification (...
متن کاملFood Manufacturing Productivity and Its Economic Implications
The gross-output multifactor productivity index for U.S. food manufacturing grew 0.19 percent per year between 1975 and 1997. This productivity growth is low when compared with an estimate of 1.25 percent per year for the whole manufacturing sector. Low investment in research and development (R&D) could be one reason. Although productivity has been relatively low, food manufacturing output has ...
متن کاملIntegrating Activity-based Costing and Economic Value Added in Manufacturing
* Earlier version presented at ASEM 98. Accepted to Engineering Management Journal. Abstract This article presents a cost and performance measurement system that integrates activity-based costing (ABC) with the economic value added financial performance measure. This proposed ABC-and-EVA system is a management support tool for managing cost and capital. The integrated ABC-and-EVA system include...
متن کاملStudent sorting and bias in value added estimation:
Non-random assignment of students to teachers can bias value added estimates of teachers’ causal effects. Rothstein (2008a, b) shows that typical value added models indicate large counter-factual effects of 5th grade teachers on students’ 4th grade learning, indicating that classroom assignments are far from random. This paper quantifies the resulting biases in estimates of 5th grade teachers’ ...
متن کاملValue-Added Models and the Measurement of Teacher Productivity
Research on teacher productivity, and recently developed accountability systems for teachers, rely on value-added models to estimate the impact of teachers on student performance. The authors test many of the central assumptions required to derive value-added models from an underlying structural cumulative achievement model and reject nearly all of them. Moreover, they find that teacher value a...
