Authors: Wang Yawen
Published: June 2023

Accurate forecasting of logistics demand is of great theoretical significance and practical application value for the formulation of national policies and the satisfaction of actual demand in the logistics industry. From the modeling form, the existing logistics demand forecasting methods are divided into four categories: single traditional forecasting method, single intelligent forecasting method, combined forecasting method and mixed forecasting method. Among them, single traditional forecasting methods mainly include simple time series method, regression analysis, mathematical and statistical methods, etc.; single intelligent forecasting methods mainly involve gray forecasting method, neural network, support vector machine and their improved forms; combined forecasting methods are mainly summarized into three combined forms: linear combination of single forecasting results, nonlinear combination of single forecasting results, modified single forecasting results; mixed forecasting methods are mainly summarized into three hybrid forms: hybrid intelligent optimization algorithms with single prediction methods, hybrid data dimensionality reduction techniques with intelligent prediction methods, and hybrid data mining techniques with intelligent prediction methods. The four major types of forecasting methods are reviewed, and each forecasting model in the four major types of methods is evaluated in terms of modeling principles, advantages and disadvantages, and applicability, in order to find forecasting methods suitable for different logistics demand forecasting tasks for logistics demand researchers.

Comparative Analysis of Intellectual Property Clauses of RCEP and CPTPP
Authors: He Shimin
Published: June 2023

As two of the most important free trade agreements in world today, CPTPP is the most advanced and detailed in terms of intellectual property rules among international trade agreements so far, while RCEP is the most extensive agreement on intellectual property signed by China. Through the comparison and analysis of intellectual property clauses under these two agreements, it can be seen that the overall protection of RCEP is less than CPTPP. However, the level of RCEP rules tends to be more balanced to apply to countries at all stages of development. At present, the level of China's intellectual property rules is in line with RCEP. In order to realize the construction of a strong intellectual property country, we should first face up to the gap between the relevant domestic laws and the most advanced international level, and appropriately improve the patents and enforcement of intellectual property based on the relevant provisions of CPTPP. At the same time, China should play a leading role in the protection of genetic resources and strive for more voice for developing countries. Secondly, the Chinese government should strengthen administrative law enforcement and supervision. Moreover, China should increase its efforts to open up to the outside world and lead the construction of an international intellectual property system.
A Comparative Study of the RCEP and the USMCA from the Perspective of International Political Economy: Based on the Analysis of Digital Trade Rulemaking
Authors: Chen Yang
Published: June 2023

Reginal Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) are both emerging free trade agreements, covering the major economies in East Asia and North America respectively. After screening, 24 papers were selected to do a comparative study of RCEP and USMCA. The paper applies the interdependence theory and the dependency theory in the field of international political economy to interpret the logic of rulemaking of the two FTAs. For the RCEP, the key is the growing interdependence (with increasing trade volumes and growing economic gains) between ASEAN countries and other member states. In addition, economic complementarity also influences the interdependence between the ASEAN and other states in East Asia, reinforcing their willingness to deepen this relationship. For the USMCA, the key is the dependency relationship between the U.S. and Mexico. This dependency continues to this day due to the untouchable structural power of the United States, and still forces Mexico to submit to the U.S. willingness to set rules for the USMCA. This paper innovatively introduces theories from the field of international political economy to study the rulemaking of the new FTAs, which provides certain directions for future academic research in the related fields.

Authors: Chen Muhan
Published: June 2023

With the gradual popularity and rapid development of digital media, many luxury brands have started to adapt to transnational digital media platforms in order to strengthen their connection with international consumers. The cultural background and complex consumer composition of different countries bring new opportunities and challenges to luxury marketing. Therefore, this paper collects literature and data related to the luxury brand Prada so as to reveal the current situation and shortcomings of Prada's transnational marketing in China. The research shows that Prada has achieved good results in its digital marketing in China, but it still lacks platform segmentation, differentiation, online and offline integration, and localized marketing. Through a critical qualitative analysis of these data, the researcher finds that Prada needs to optimize its transnational marketing strategy in terms of providing different marketing strategies for different platforms, integrating digital marketing, and adding localized elements.

Authors: Qiao Chu
Published: June 2023

With the increasingly significant degree of economic globalization, trade liberalization has developed to a certain extent, some insignificant but far-reaching trade barriers have begun to attract the attention of countries and regions: too long transportation time, complicated declaration documents, layers of declaration procedures, the government supervision system is not perfect, etc. Over the past ten years since the establishment of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area, the two sides have issued many policies to improve the economic and trade environment and enhance the level of facilitation. However, due to the differences in the infrastructure and business environment, the level of trade facilitation between China and ASEAN member states is not high enough. Based on this, the paper takes the China-ASEAN trade volume as the research object, establishes the trade facilitation evaluation index system, measures the level of trade facilitation in the ten ASEAN countries, studies the influence of it and its four primary indicators on the total trade volume based on the gravity model. The results show that the level of trade facilitation has an important impact on the bilateral trade between China and ASEAN. There is a significant positive correlation between the trade facilitation level of partner countries and trade volume. For every 1% increase in the trade facilitation level of ASEAN partners, its trade volume with China will increase by about 1.248%. Countries can improve the customs and institutional environment, improve the construction of high-efficiency ports and high-level e-commerce to improve the level of trade facilitation, and strengthen trade cooperation with China.

Published: June 2023

Given the rapid pace of technology development, can we still benefit from investing in U.S. tech stocks today? To answer this question, we analyzed three typical U.S. tech stocks: TSM, Samsung, and Amazon. We use the current ratio and quick ratio to analyze the liquidity of enterprises. total asset turnover was used to measure the efficiency of asset utilization. ROA (Return on Asset) and ROE (Return on Equity) are used to measure the ability of enterprises to generate income based on assets and debts. P/B and P/E ratios calculate the market value of these three stocks. Finally, we come to the conclusion that investors who want short-term returns should choose Samsung, and investors who want long-term returns should choose TSM. Amazon stock is worse among these three stocks, so it can be ignored. Right now, technology doesn't allow us to analyze a large number of stocks in a short period; But in the future, if we have access to big data models, it's going to be very easy to figure out based on the kind of analytics we use, whether or not we're going to be able to benefit from investing in tech stocks.

Analysis of inventory with the example of Kloeckner & Co SE
Authors: Gao Yingbo
Published: June 2023

International accounting is generally considered to be a new field of accounting. In order to comply with the trend of increasing internationalization of economic development, the field of accounting has been made more conceptually developed and practically useful and precise. Research on the main elements of international accounting focuses on accounting standards and financial reporting standards for multinational companies. According to economic reality, companies are involved in the manufacture of products, such as goods or services. At the end of each financial year, these inventories must be valued in order to show the value on the balance sheet at the relevant reporting date. Inventories are thus part of the working capital and thus affect the liquidity of the company. Now, the central issue in valuing inventories is to measure all payments related to production or purchases and to allocate them to individual inventories as acquisition costs or production costs. Inventories play an important role in terms of balance sheet assets and are interpreted by IAS 2. In the situation of the global financial crisis, the application of inventory models in the working capital management of companies is becoming more and more indispensable. For enterprises, a large amount of working capital needs to be used in the procurement and storage of goods, and many enterprises often have improper ratios of inventory funds, which in turn affects the normal operation of the enterprise. Inventory modeling theory is widely applied in enterprise working capital management, which can strengthen the ability of enterprises to deal with problems flexibly, and can respond to changes in consumer demand and competitive situation in a timely manner, and can develop countermeasures and solutions that are better than other competitors.

A Phaidón különleges dialógus, ugyanis a filozófiai tét, azaz Szókratész életben maradása mélyen és személyesen érinti a beszélgetés résztvevőit. Tanulmányomban épp ezért arra keresem a választ, hogy az argumentáció és dramaturgia metszéspontjában helyet foglaló meggyőzés (peithó) kezelni kívánja-e Szókratész barátainak affekcióit, és ha igen, az affektív meggyőzés milyen problémái, eszközei és eredménye tárul elénk. Az intellektualista megközelítések ellenében amellett érvelek, hogy a racionális meggyőzésnek mindig számot kell vetnie az affektív akadályokkal, ennek alátámasztása érdekében pedig azt javaslom, hogy Szókratész erőfeszítéseit barátai megnyugtatása érdekében a Törvények meggyőzéselmélete felől olvassuk.

A dolgozat támpontokat kíván nyújtani ahhoz, hogy Szimplikiosz miként elemzi azt a viszonyt, amely egyfelől a vélekedés, vágy, törekvés és hárítás, másfelől pedig a szabad választás (προαίρεσις) között áll fenn. Epiktétosz Kézikönyvecskéjéhez írott kommentárjában ezt egy oksági viszonyként értelmezi, ahol a szabad választás hozza létre ezeket a lelki folyamatokat, nem pusztán irányt szab nekik. Ha jól működnek, akkor a vélekedés, vágy, törekvés és hárítás megjelenési formái lesznek az emberi autonómiának, miközben ennek az autonómiának a forrása a szabad választásban keresendő. A szabad választásnak azonban meg kell felelnie egy normatív kritériumnak, a természetnek, ami az illő cselekedetekhez vezet.

Published: June 2023

Background: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a severe acute respiratory disease that emerged with viral pneumonia-like symptoms in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. As the main strategies for dealing with COVID are prevention of transmission rather than medical intervention, the role of the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of the population and medical faculty are of paramount importance in reducing risk and mortality due to COVID-19, especially in Indian setting where population density is very high.

Aims and Objectives: The aims and objectives of the study are to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practices among undergraduate medical students regarding COVID-19 in a South Indian teaching hospital.

Materials and Methods: A questionnaire-based study was conducted among 150 2nd-year undergraduate students from Mysore Medical College and Research Institute, Mysore, from January 2022 to March 2022. A validated questionnaire consisting of 23 questions divided under 3 sections, knowledge, attitude, and practice, was used. Statistical analysis of data was done using MS-Excel spreadsheet.

Results: 98.6% of the respondents had good knowledge regarding COVID-19. With respect to attitude, majority of the students (92%) felt that the COVID pandemic will come under control eventually and 20.7% wanted it to remain private if someone in their family were to get infected with COVID. With regard to their practices, 71.3% changed their daily routines in response to the pandemic.

Conclusion: The study shows good knowledge and practices among medical students but lacks in certain social aspects regarding attitude toward COVID-19 such as keeping COVID-19 infections in the family private, which shows scope for improvement.

Background: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a chronic disorder, which requires long-term treatment. The cost of antidepressant drugs is an important factor in assuring adherence to therapy. Due to the long nature of the disease, it is essential that prices be predictable over long periods. Hence, we conduct this study to assess changes in the scenario of antidepressant drugs in the Indian market over 20 years.

Aims and Objectives: (i) To estimate relative proportion of various drug groups used in the treatment of MDD in 2001 and 2021; and (ii) To estimate change in drug prices from 2001 to 2021 utilizing variables of mean, variability, and cost ratio.

Materials and Methods: This study was a retrospective observational study. Prices of drugs in the Indian market were obtained from the Indian Drug Review of 2001 and 2021. Drugs were classified into different drug groups. The relative proportion of each drug group in each year was calculated. Maximum, minimum, and average prices were calculated. A comparison of number of preparations per drug, mean cost, variability, and cost ratio was done.

Results: Fourteen drugs were identified in 2001 while twenty-two drugs were identified in 2021. Of the five drug groups, one group of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) had a decrease in number of drugs while the other groups had an increase in number of drugs. The greatest increase in number of drugs was for selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The percentage of total antidepressant drugs that were TCAs reduced from 64.3% to 36.4% while the same for SSRIs increased from 7.14% to 27.3%. Both numbers of manufacturers for amitriptyline and fluoxetine decreased from 28 to 21 and from 33 to 20, respectively. Variability and cost ratio declined for both amitriptyline and fluoxetine but increased for all other drugs. All drugs had significant increases in average price with the highest increase being of nortriptiline and amitryptiline.

Conclusion: SSRIs have significantly increased in the Indian market over the last 20 years. The proportion of TCAs has declined over the years. Inclusion in the essential medicine list may help decrease variability but average costs of drugs still increase significantly.

Avaliou-se o desempenho e as características da carcaça de bovinos anelorados terminados em confinamento com pesos ao abate de 510, 535 e 560 kg. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente casualizado, com três tratamentos e seis repetições, totalizando 18 animais de 20 meses de idade e 405,78 kg de peso corporal. A dieta foi fornecida duas vezes ao dia, sendo 24% de silagem de capim e 76% de concentrado, na matéria seca. O período necessário para os animais atingirem os respectivos pesos foi de 63, 93 e 114 dias. Animais abatidos com 510 kg apresentaram maior ganho de peso diário (1,69 kg animal-1 dia-1), ganho de carcaça (1,30 kg animal-1 dia-1), rendimento do ganho (769,5 g de carcaça kg-1 de ganho de peso) e melhor conversão alimentar (6,46 kg MS kg-1 de ganho de peso). O maior tempo em confinamento proporcionou maiores pesos de carcaça, dianteiro e traseiro. Com a elevação do peso de abate, aumentou a espessura de gordura subcutânea, reduziu a quebra ao resfriamento das carcaças, além de maior peso e proporção do costilhar. O abate de animais anelorados terminados em confinamento recebendo silagem de capim deve acontecer quando estes alcançarem 510 kg de peso vivo.
