Recent researches have seen an upsurge in the analysis of consumer reviews. Although, several dimensions have been explored, less is known on the temporal dynamics of events that happen over the lifecycle of online products. What are the dominant sales patterns? How are they affected by review count, rating, helpfulness and sentiment? How is trust characterized and what are its effects on sales...

salinity stress results to decreasing leaf area index (lai) and light absorption in plant leading in yield decrease. in order to study effect of salinity and iron sulphate on lai, absorbed light percentage and yield of sunflower (euroflor cultivar), an experiment was carried out as split plot based on complete randomized block design with four replications in the research field of university of...

Is the impact of sales promotion on consumer perception mediated by its hedonic and utilitarian benefits in the context of Indian consumers?  Is gender having a moderating impact on the relationship between the benefits of sales promotion and consumer perception?  Authors examined both questions using a partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Findings revealed that hedonic ...

Chemical recovery of methyl acetoacetate from the amoxicillin plant’s waste stream was investigated. In process of amoxicillin production for activation of amoxicillin molecule, hydrolysis takes place at final stage. As a result methyl acetoacetate is formed. Liquid-liquid extraction was employed for the recovery of methyl acetoacetate from the waste stream. Diluted alkaline solution was used a...

Based on over 260 estimates, the mean elasticity of sales or market share to advertising is 0.1 percent. Another 450 field experiments suggest that changes in media, product, target segments, advertising scheduling, and advertising content are more likely to yield changes in sales than do changes in advertising weight. Numerous other studies suggest that advertising wear-in does not exist or oc...

We use a randomized control trial to measure how the free distribution of modern inputs for maize production affects their adoption in the subsequent season. Information collected through sales workshops where modern inputs were sold revealed that the average purchase quantity of free-input recipients was much higher than that of non-recipients; that of the neighbors of recipients fell in-betwe...

The sales proceeds are the most important factors for keeping alive profitable companies. So sales and budget sales are considered as important parameters influencing all other decision variables in an organization. Therefore, poor forecasting can lead to great loses in organization caused by inaccurate and non-comprehensive production and human resource planning. In this research a coherent so...

Background: Treatment of ionizing radiation combined with chemical agents can enhance the inactivation of cells. The aim of this study was to determine the parameters involved in the inhibition of cell recovery. Materials and Methods: A mathematical model describing the process of recovery as a decrease in the effective radiation dose was used. The model includes two parameters, recovery consta...

This paper investigates how r̄ms choose prices and production capacity when facing stochastic demand. With demand uncertainty, ̄rms face demand curves for their goods which implicitly subsume the selling mechanism adopted in the markets for these goods. The selling mechanisms considered in this analysis are bidding markets or auctions, and take-it-or-leave-it sales. They have di®erent implicatio...
