The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting the evaluation of the quality of voluntary disclosure, given that the factors used in internal research due to having an external source and focusing on the number of disclosures may not be an appropriate criterion for measuring the quality of information disclosure, so, it is necessary to provide new influencing factors on the e...

This paper presents a model in which some consumers shop on the basis of price alone, without attention to product quality. A firm may “cheat” (i.e., cut quality) to exploit these inattentive consumers. In the unique symmetric equilibrium, firms follow a mixed strategy involving both price and quality dispersion. Firms are less likely to cheat when there are fewer inattentive consumers, which i...

Using 1988 and 1991 data from nonprofit voluntary hospitals in California, we find that the vast majority of nonprofit hospitals provide community dividends in excess of the tax subsidies they receive. However, nearly 20 percent of nonprofit hospitals do not meet this standard. Further, those hospitals that do not meet the standard tend to not meet the standard over time. We recommend more expl...

tary hospital is a charity, and that it deals with two classes of the public?those who support the charity and those who benefit by the charity?the givers and the receivers. And these two classes have been kept apart, at any rate officially. It has always been recognised that the giver gives, not for his own good, but for someone else's, and that the receiver receives because someone else has p...
