this paper presents an analytic procedure for the value added to different production levels with different policy options. the approach is stochastic and thus provides a framework for informed decision-making on productivity growth under uncertainty conditions. the model was applied to data collected from a firm and re-sults recommend that the firm should redevelop if in diversification and sy...

Recently there has been a renewed interest in the study of firm size distributions and firm growth rate distributions. The stochastic firm growth approach builds on the assumption that firm growth rates are independent identically distributed and size is determined by a first order autoregressive process leaving the size distribution log-normal. This paper analyzes these distributional patterns...

Increased uncertainty in the economic and business environments have placed IS function and IS leadership in a quandary today. In this paper, we empirically examine the remuneration of CIOs, and examine their association with firm performance, size and industry membership. Based on compensation data of 213 CIOs in 2002, we test several hypotheses linking the total, annual cash, and long term co...

This employs data drawn 88 listed firms in East African Community (EAC) for period 2011 2020. used system generalized method moments (SGMM...
