Published: September 2023

The study investigated the determinants of tax aggressiveness among Nigerian listed non-financial firms using inferential and descriptive statistics. Ex-post facto research design was used based on the researchers’ choice of relying on secondary data of listed non-financial enterprises in order to meet the study's general and specific objectives. For this study, 10 years company-specific data were collected from MachameRatios Positive Accounting Database covering 2011 to 2020. Analysis was done using the regression method along with relevant diagnostic tests. According to the results of the hypothesis test, we discovered that Return on Assets (ROA) and gender diversity on the audit committee, does not significantly influence tax aggressiveness, whereas, real earnings management and independence of corporate boards have significant impact on the level of tax aggressiveness of listed non-financial firms in Nigeria. The study thus submits that the level of board independence and the degree of managements’ involvement on real earnings management are major determinants of tax aggressiveness among Nigerian listed non-financial firms. This study thus recommends that the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria and other relevant regulatory agencies should sustain previous provision in the corporate governance codes requiring the compulsory inclusion of independent directors in the boards of corporate entities. Conscious attempts must be made by regulators to strategically monitor the activities of corporate organizations and their respective management to the extent that tax aggressive tactics through real activities’ manipulation should be discouraged and possibly sanctioned.
Keywords: Tax Shield, Effective Tax, Tax Aggressiveness, Non-Financial Listed Firms, Corporate Boards, Nigeria.

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of the temperature humidity index (THI) on the efficiency of estrus synchronization on both beef and dairy cows. The research was carried out at APC "Azamat" of the Beskaragai district of the East Kazakhstan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The natural and climatic conditions of this zone make it possible to raise both beef and dairy cattle. The study involved 408 Kazakh white-headed cows aged 3 to 5 year.
During the experimental period, the data for air temperature (T), relative humidity (φ), wind speed (υ) were collected, and the temperature humidity index (THI) was determined. The data was recorded for 30 days (10 days before synchronization, 10 days during synchronization and 10 days after synchronization). In addition, during the synchronization period, clinical parameters - body temperature (t), pulse (P), respiratory rate (Re) and rumination (R) were measured daily in 10% of animals by conventional methods.
During the experimental period (2020-2022) THI was 74,50±1,31, 78,20±2,11, 72,80±0,7210 days before the estrus synchronization. When THI was increased by 5.6±0.03 in 2021 compared to 2020, the fertility decreased by 9.7±0.78. Similarly, when THI was increased by 7.3 ± 0.56 compared to 2022, fertility was reduced by 13.8 ± 0.36. The latter indicates that when THI increases the fertility rate decreases.
Based on the results, there is an influence of THI on the effectiveness of estrus synchronization. Increased THI, to a certain extent, reduces both estrus expression and effectiveness of estrus synchronization leading to reduced fertility rate and increased embryonic mortality.

В статье представлены результаты исследования сезонной динамики телязиоза крупного рогатого скота в Западно Казахстанской области.
Телязиоз является широко распространенным гельминтозом крупного рогатого скота во всех рйонах Западного Казахстана. Изучение вопросов распространения и сезонной динамики телязиозов имеет большое значение. Скот, заражённый телязиозом, практический является источником инвазии круглый год. Установление сезонной динамики, проявления заболевания являатся необходимым в планировании и проведении противогельминтозных мероприятий.
Телязиоз несмотря на отсутствие летальности, вызывают значительный экономический ущерб при котором утрачивается молочная, снижается мясная продуктивность. Возбудители телязиоза в основном локализуются в слезноносовом канале, под третьим веком или на конъюнктиве глаз. Их наличие приводит к развитию воспалительных процессов в области глаза, который в последствие приводит к слепоте. Больных животных выбраковывают.
По нашим исследованиям основные изменения показателей в эпизоотической ситуации наблюдались через месяц после выхода животных на пастбище. Во второй половине апреля -0,78%, в первой половине мая он повысился почти в два раза и ИЭ составил 1,90 %. К концу мая этот показатель возрос несколько раз ИЭ составил - 5,98%. В июне эпизоотическая ситуация, хотя и была неоднозначной, постоянно росла. В июле инвазия достигла максимума ИЭ - 10,85%. Во второй половине месяца немного снизился и составила - 8,93%. В августе ИЭ составил- 9,37%, то есть поднялся на один с лищним процента выше чем предыдущий месяц. Пик инвазии приходится на первую половину июля и сохраняется с небольшым снижнием до первой половины августа. В этот перод количество и активность промежуточных хозяев зоофильных мух очень высокая.

На сегодняшний день важнейшим направлением совершенствования системы управления в организации является организация планомерной и эффективной работы с кадровым резервом. Актуальность данной темы исследования обусловливают многие факторы, в том числе то, что в последнее время мы наблюдаем тенденцию к интеграции во всех сферах деятельности. Рост и объединение компаний приводят к увеличению потребности в высококвалифицированных специалистах. Отсутствие мотивации на возможный карьерный рост приводит к потере элитных кадров, что является опасным моментом для организации в части потери молодых и весьма талантливых специалистов. В связи с этим важнейшим фактором успеха в конкурентной борьбе становится своевременное выявление и успешное развитие кадров для работы в различных должностях компании. Стратегически важной на данный момент является задача по формированию резерва кадров в организации.
To date, the most important direction of improving the management system in the organization is the organization of systematic and effective work with the personnel reserve. The relevance of this research topic is determined by many factors, including the fact that we have recently observed a trend towards integration in all spheres of activity. The growth and consolidation of companies lead to an increase in the need for highly qualified specialists. The lack of motivation for possible career growth leads to the loss of elite personnel, which is a dangerous moment for the organization in terms of the loss of young and very talented specialists. Therefore, the most important factor of success in the competitive struggle is the timely identification and successful development of personnel to work in various positions of the company. Strategically important at the moment will be the task of forming a reserve of personnel in the organization.

Policing Suspect Communities: Intergenerational Black British Experiences
As the debate on how to improve the police-community relationship continues, frequent and often hostile policing remains an inescapable part of life for many Black Britons. This article analyses the historical and contemporary policing experiences of Black communities in a north London suburb. Using data from 58 ethnographic semi-structured and unstructured qualitative interviews with young people, adults/elders and community workers, it explores the lived experience of generations of Black British communities labelled “suspect communities”. Despite police efforts to improve trust and confidence in Black communities, frequent and often hostile policing remains an inescapable part of life for many Black Britons. Negative experiences of policing over time are found to have created deeply embedded cultural narratives about how the police treat Black people that are transmitted across generations. These narratives provide conceptual frameworks to interpret information about the police which may be more powerful than other sources. The data illustrates that negative community perceptions of the police are the inevitable result of decades of racialized policing in Britain. This has significant implications for the present and future relationship between the police and Black Britons, representative of the place of Black Britons in the British state.

Objetivo: Analisar o desenvolvimento da assessoria e monitoramento aos municípios goianos realizado in loco pelo Centro Colaborador em Alimentação e Nutrição do Escolar da Universidade Federal de Goiás (CECANE/UFG). Metodologia: Estudo transversal, quali-quantitativo analítico realizado a partir da coleta de dados em 32 municípios previamente selecionados pelo Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação (FNDE), durante o desenvolvimento da assessoria e monitoramento. Os monitores do CECANE/UFG permaneceram cinco dias em cada município para a obtenção do diagnóstico e aspectos relacionados à execução do Programa Nacional de Alimentação do Escolar (PNAE) e, a partir de então, pactuou-se um plano de ação. Após 30 dias, foi realizada a primeira assessoria remota para averiguar quais ações haviam sido concluídas, se encontravam em andamento ou não foram concluídas com suas respectivas justificativas, inclusive facilidades e dificuldades da execução do plano proposto. A segunda assessoria, realizada 90 dias após a pactuação, consistia em avaliar a execução das ações que estavam em andamento com a questão norteadora: “Qual foi o papel do CECANE/UFG na execução do PNAE no seu município”. Resultados: Dos municípios avaliados, 28 (87,50%) cumpriram o protocolo do estudo na íntegra e, foi possível averiguar que 180 (71,74%) ações “não concluídas” possuíram como justificativas as dificuldades em processos administrativos e em recursos humanos. Quanto à execução das ações pactuadas, o plano de ação foi considerado aspecto facilitador e o recurso financeiro aspecto dificultador. Constatou-se que o monitoramento/assessoria forneceu suporte, conhecimento e esclarecimentos sobre a execução do PNAE, porém, observou-se confusão sobre o papel do CECANE/UFG considerado como órgão fiscalizador. Conclusão: E videnciou-se o CECANE/UFG como ponto de apoio aos municípios goianos com contribuições para o aprimoramento das suas atividades como referência regional em assistência técnico-operacional no âmbito do PNAE.

Dentre as atividades do planejamento florestal, a determinação do fator de forma no povoamento florestal é um dos métodos mais empregados para estimar o volume de árvores individuais, e conhecido por ser um método simples, de fácil aplicabilidade e importante para calcular o volume comercial. No estado de Mato Grosso, nos planos de manejo florestal o fator de forma (ff) utilizado é 0,7 para cálculo de volume médio, regulamentado pelo Decreto Estadual nº. 2.152, de 12 de fevereiro de 2014, Seção III, art. 21, paragrafo 1o . Consoante ao fator de forma utlizado no Brasil. Esse valor decorrido (absoleto) ainda é utilizado nas estimativas de volume tanto para floresta natural ou floresta plantada, não considerando a especificidade e particularidade de cada espécie. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo testar o fator de forma artificial para a espécie Hymenaea courbaril, popularmente conhecida como Jatobá ou Jataí, em condições naturais de ocorrência. Neste trabalho foram testados 10 modelos através da análise de regressão, com as seguintes estatísticas para avaliação de sua eficiência ou aplicabilidade: Erro Padrão da Média (Syx (%)), Coeficiente de Determinação Ajustado (R2Ajus) e a melhor distribuição dos resíduos. O modelo “ff = β0 + β1*(d0,1*d0,5)/d2 + β2(d0,3/d)2 + β3*(h/d2)” foi o que apresentou resultados mais satisfatórios e acurados, sendo o mais recomendado para estimativa de fator de forma da espécie Hymenaea courbaril L. em condições naturais.

Authors: Putra Ramdani Bayu , Aima Havidz , Yulasmi  
Published: September 2023

Purpose: This study aims to identify and analyze the role of organizational fit in mediating and moderating knowledge-oriented leadership on employee performance.

Theoretical framework: Research on the factors that influence employee performance has been carried out a lot. Organizations need to seek the application of knowledge-oriented leadership and organizational compatibility as important factors affecting employee performance. This leadership encourages innovation, creativity, and continuous learning, so that it can improve employee performance in the long term, (Ismail Al‐Alawi, Yousif Al‐Marzooqi and Fraidoon Mohammed, 2007; Hermastho, 2021). Furthermore, organizations that have a high level of compatibility tend to have employees who are more satisfied and motivated in doing their jobs, (Kristof, 1996; Hidayat, Tjahjono and Fauziyah, 2017).

Design/methodology/approach: The object of this research is the Padang City Regional Secretariat Office with a total of 222 respondents. The research data is primary data collected through questionnaires relating to all research variables. The research model is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) by processing data using smart pls 3.

Findings: The results of the hypothesis conclude, knowledge-oriented leadership has a strong and significant effect on organizational suitability and employee performance at the Padang City Regional Secretariat. The mediating effect of organizational fit is a factor that strengthens employee performance. However, organizational compability does not moderate the influence of Knowledge Oriented Leadership on employee performance.

Research, Practical & Social implications: Research findings can be useful for organizations to maximize knowledge-oriented leadership and organizational compatibility to improve employee performance, both directly and indirectly.

Originality/value: Organizational Compatibility is an important factor in strengthening or mediating knowledge-oriented leadership to improve employee performance. However, Organizational Compatibility does not moderate knowledge-oriented leadership to improve performance. This is due to the suitability of the characteristics between the organization and employees is not fulfilled either in quantity or quality.
