Problems in Use of Accounting Data in the Economic Analysis of Income of the Firm
Creators: name: Fishbein, David Morris
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The fact that empirical data used in economic analysis must be examined very critically and, if necessary, corrected for statistical or personal bias is well recognized by researchers. For example, statistical series prepared by trade associations will often different substantially from similar series prepared by labor unions, and economists who are interested in producing objective studies, being aware of the pitfalls in the use of material from such sources, usually make necessary allowances for subjective elements. However there is one type of empirical information -- accounting data -- which economists do not always view quite as critically.

description: Quantum State Tomography (QST) has been the traditional method for characterization of an unknown state. Recently, many direct measurement methods have been implemented to reconstruct the state in a resource efficient way. In this letter, we present an interferometric method, in which, any qubit state, whether mixed or pure, can be inferred from the visibility, phase shift and average intensity of an interference pattern using a single shot measurement -- hence, we call it Quantum State Interferography. This provides us with a "black box" approach to quantum state estimation, wherein, between the incidence of the photon and extraction of state information, we are not changing any conditions within the set-up, thus giving us a true single shot estimation of the quantum state. In contrast, standard QST requires at least two measurements for pure state qubit and at least three measurements for mixed state qubit reconstruction. We then go on to show that QSI is more resource efficient than QST for quantification of entanglement in pure bipartite qubits. We experimentally implement our method with high fidelity using the polarisation degree of freedom of light. An extension of the scheme to pure states involving $d-1$ interferograms for $d$-dimensional systems is also presented. Thus, the scaling gain is even more dramatic in the qudit scenario for our method where in contrast, standard QST, without any assumptions, scales roughly as $d^2$.

description: We investigate a case of the Hu-Paz-Zhang master equation of the Caldeira-Leggett model without Lindblad form obtained in the weak-coupling limit up to the second-order perturbation. In our study, we use Gaussian initial states to be able to employ a sufficient and necessary condition, which can expose positivity violations of the density operator during the time evolution. We demonstrate that the evolution of the non-Markovian master equation has problems when the stationary solution is not a positive operator, i.e., does not have physical interpretation. We also show that solutions always remain physical for small-times of evolution. Moreover, we identify a strong anomalous behavior, when the trace of the solution is diverging. We also provide results for the corresponding Markovian master equation and show that positivity violations occur for various types of initial conditions even when the stationary solution is a positive operator. Based on our numerical results, we conclude that this non-Markovian master equation is superior to the corresponding Markovian one.

description: We present Privaros, a framework to enforce privacy policies on drones. Privaros is designed for commercial delivery drones, such as the ones that will likely be used by Amazon Prime Air. Such drones visit a number of host airspaces, each of which may have different privacy requirements. Privaros provides an information flow control framework to enforce the policies of these hosts on the guest delivery drones. The mechanisms in Privaros are built on top of ROS, a middleware popular in many drone platforms. This paper presents the design and implementation of these mechanisms, describes how policies are specified, and shows that Privaros's policy specification can be integrated with India's Digital Sky portal. Our evaluation shows that a drone running Privaros can robustly enforce various privacy policies specified by hosts, and that its core mechanisms only marginally increase communication latency and power consumption.

description: Food produced but not consumed is one the greatest threats to sustainable food systems. While there is evidence in the literature to suggest that food is wasted at all stages of the agri-food chain, the role of take back agreements (TBAs) has not been emphasized. When market conditions are such that TBAs become a tool for the retailers to express coercive power over the supplier, there is an incentive to over-order and hence waste. In this study, a case-based approach was used to explore the existence and implications of coercive power at the retailer-supplier interface due to presence of TBAs in the context of Swedish bread suppliers. Specifically, company data for a medium-sized premium bread supplier in Sweden was analyzed. This supplier faced 30% returns of its total volume produced in the period 2011-15 and had to bear the entire cost of bread rejections, collection and disposal. It was paid only for the bread sold to end customers, and not for the contracted quantity. The findings indicate that TBAs are drivers of food waste at the supplier-retailer interface as it reduces the incentives for retailers to prevent waste. Our study confirms that it is a problem requiring serious policy attention. Acknowledgement : The study was funded by the European Union through the research programme ERA-Net SUSFOOD and the project COnsumers in a SUStainable food supply chain (COSUS). Primary data through interviews were provided by representatives of all major retailers and bread producers in Sweden, while detailed supply data were provided by the bread supplier Salt Kvarn. The company has allowed access to its data for the purposes of research without any anonymity conditions.

description: Despite a burgeoning literature on the economics of Geographical Indications (GIs), few analyses have explored the question of the optimal size of GIs and the role of lobbying in setting the boundaries of a GI. By contrast, historical evidence demonstrates that the emergence and expansion of GI areas has been accompanied by intense lobbying efforts. In this paper, we develop a political economy model to explore the size of GIs. Our model builds on four key aspects of a GI expansion: first, a larger GI area would increase production, thereby depressing prices. Second, a larger GI area potentially leads to a lower average (perceived) quality, which reduces consumer utility and prices. Third, a larger GI area allows producers to engage in better sharing of fixed costs such as marketing expenses. And fourth, the introduction or expansion of a GI area is a political decision, potentially influenced by lobbying. We show that a clear ranking exists of potential outcomes depending on whether governments maximize the welfare of all producers, "insiders" only, or "outsiders" only. However, the relationship between the political equilibrium and the social optimum is ambiguous, as it depends on how consumers' utility is affected by a change in quality.

description: In this paper we looked at how various tax incentives affected agricultural productivity growth in Ukraine. The empirical analysis was carried out using Ukraine-wide farm-level accounting data for an unbalanced panel of agricultural enterprises over the period 1995-2014. The results demonstrate that the impact of tax exemptions varies across different groups of agricultural producers and sectors. Overall, however, tax exemptions positively affect agricultural TFP growth, but they turned out to be very cost-inefficient instrument of stimulating TFP growth in agriculture. Also tax exemptions strongly undermined efficiency and productivity convergence in agriculture. Acknowledgement :

description: We study the influence of finite kinematic boundaries on the induced gluon radiation from a fast quark in a finite size quark-gluon plasma. The calculations are carried out for fixed and running coupling constant. We find that for running coupling constant the kinematic correction to the radiative energy loss is small for quark energy larger than about 5 GeV. Our results differ both analytically and numerically from that obtained by the GLV group [6]. The effect of the kinematic cut-offs is considerably smaller than reported in [6].

description: To accelerate adoption of climate smart agriculture technologies and innovations in East Africa, the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change and Food Security Programme introduced the concept of Climate-Smart Villages (CSVs) in the region, specifically in Lushoto in Tanzania, Borana in Ethiopia, Hoima and Rakai in Uganda, and Wote and Nyando in Kenya. The approach brings together research institutions, agriculture sector stakeholders and the farming communities to test a portfolio of CSA technologies, identify locally appropriate ones and promote their uptake. This study sought to measure the impact of the technologies on welfare of the households. Using quasi-experimental approaches, the study found that CSVs enhanced the adaptive capacity of the smallholder farmers, and that CSA technologies and innovations improved the welfare of the farmers by increasing their access to food varieties, improving their asset holding and income. The policy implication is that the concept CSV should be promoted while obstacles to adoption of CSA technologies and innovations should be addressed. Acknowledgement :

Meteors And Showers A Millennium Ago

description: Meteors can be classified into either sporadic meteors or showery meteors. We compile the meteor records in the astronomical archives in the Chronicle of the Koryo dynasty (918-1392), and investigate the spatial distribution of meteor streams along the orbit of the Earth from the 10th century to the 14th century. We see that meteors from meteor streams signalize themselves over noisy sporadic meteors, and that the seasonal activity of sporadic meteors was apparently regular. We discover the presence of a few meteor streams by analysing about 700 meteors in the Koryo period. We also compile the records of meteor showers and storms in the chronicles of Korea, Japan, China, Arab, and Europe, and compare their appearance dates with those of showers obtained above, as well as with the modern observations. We confirm that the three sets of data are in agreement with each other. The representative meteor showers are the Perseids, the Leonids, and the $η$-Aquarids/Orionids pair formed by Halley's comet. The other weak or relic meteor streams are also observable but uncertain. Hence, we witness the regularity of meteor activity, which is seen to persist for a millennium.

Time-delay quasars: scales and orders of magnitudes

description: We can think of a lensed quasar as taking the Hubble time, shrinking it by \~10^{-11}, and then presenting the result to us as a time delay; the shrinking factor is of the order of fractional sky-area that the lens occupies. This cute fact is a straightforward consequence of lensing theory, and enables a simple rescaling of time delays. Observed time delays have a 40-fold range, but after rescaling the range reduces to 5-fold. The latter range depends on details of the lens and lensing configuration--for example, quads have systematically shorter rescaled time delays than doubles--and is as expected from a simple model. The hypothesis that observed time-delay lenses all come from a generalized-isothermal family can be ruled out. But there is no indication of drastically different populations either.

description: The ability to measure fragility is essential to operationalising the concept of chain fragility as a phenomenon. It is arguably easier to determine how fragile a complex system, like a chain, is rather than trying to predict the probability and impact that events could have on the system. The framework in this paper enables the detection of fragility and the quantification of fragility in response to progressively deteriorating chain factors. This approach is akin to stress-testing, albeit if for multiple factors and actors in a chain. The framework to measure detect chain fragility provides an alternative to the traditional chain risk assessment . The ability to measure chain fragility is particularly valuable in a context where risk and uncertainty are more pervasive, consequential and unpredictable. The paper shows that a number of very specific factors, like quality and safety performance, and cash flow position, have consistently high fragility scores for all actors in the chain. The paper also shows that while a golden thread of the same factors stretch across the chain a range of factors are uniquely localised to a specific role-player or activity, which highlights the techno-economic uniqueness of individual specific activities in a chain.

description: Finding the right balance between shared and private spaces is an important factor to consider for offices and universities not only to increase worker productivity, but also to increase overall satisfaction. In the current study, we investigate the differences in staff and student satisfaction between shared and private spaces in the Centre for Interactive Research and Sustainability (CIRS) and the factors that drive those preferences. To gather our data, we survey staff and students on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the CIRS building. Our results found that students are significantly more dissatisfied with the amount of private space compared to shared space in the building, and those who are dissatisfied are weakly correlated with private, non-collaborative use of the area. However, we didn’t find significant differences between the level of satisfaction of the spaces among staff. Furthermore, the staff who were more satisfied with the amount of shared space were correlated with more collaborative use of the area. Based on the results, we recommend that a combination of both shared and private space would be optimal for increasing staff and student satisfaction, with a greater emphasis on private spaces.

description: Parameter estimation, statistical tests and confidence sets are the cornerstones of classical statistics that allow scientists to make inferences about the underlying process that generated the observed data. A key question is whether one can still construct hypothesis tests and confidence sets with proper coverage and high power in a so-called likelihood-free inference (LFI) setting; that is, a setting where the likelihood is not explicitly known but one can forward-simulate observable data according to a stochastic model. In this paper, we present $\texttt{ACORE}$ (Approximate Computation via Odds Ratio Estimation), a frequentist approach to LFI that first formulates the classical likelihood ratio test (LRT) as a parametrized classification problem, and then uses the equivalence of tests and confidence sets to build confidence regions for parameters of interest. We also present a goodness-of-fit procedure for checking whether the constructed tests and confidence regions are valid. $\texttt{ACORE}$ is based on the key observation that the LRT statistic, the rejection probability of the test, and the coverage of the confidence set are conditional distribution functions which often vary smoothly as a function of the parameters of interest. Hence, instead of relying solely on samples simulated at fixed parameter settings (as is the convention in standard Monte Carlo solutions), one can leverage machine learning tools and data simulated in the neighborhood of a parameter to improve estimates of quantities of interest. We demonstrate the efficacy of $\texttt{ACORE}$ with both theoretical and empirical results. Our implementation is available on Github.

description: This paper examines the role of individual risk preferences in the decision of a climate smart technology in two northern states of India. We conducted a household survey and a field experiment using real cash with Indian farmers to elicit their risk preferences, and used them to explain their adoption of laser land leveler. The analysis extended the measurement of risk preferences beyond the expected utility theory to incorporate prospect theory. We use duration analysis approach to model the time to adoption and find that risk averse farmers and farmers who overvalue smaller probabilities adopt his technology sooner than others. Acknowledgement : We are really thankful to strengthening Impact Assessment in the CGIAR and Michigan State University's Asian Study Center for thier generous funding for this study.

description: The purpose of this report is to provide an evaluation of the impact of supplementary irrigation in grain production in the northern area of the Province Buenos Aires, Argentina within the framework of risk analysis and with emphasis on risk related to weather. An economic analysis of a productive model in the mentioned area, characterized by fertile soils and considering a farm of 400 hectares destined integrally to the production of grains is carefully developed. This analysis clearly shows that the main impact of supplementary irrigation is associated with the reduction of variability in yields and with the increase of expected farm income and net revenue. The rate of return on investment on irrigated agriculture more than doubles the one related to rainfed agriculture.

description: Communication is the essential factor which determines the development of human society and progress. Broadly defined, communication would include "any means which links one mechanism or organism with another." It is the "process of transmitting meaningful symbols between individuals."In a more extensive form communication could be defined as "the mechanism through which human relations exist and develop -- all the symbols of the mind, together with the means of conveying them through space and preserving them in time . . .".

description: We have investigated both theoretically and experimentally dipolar relaxation in a gas of magnetically trapped chromium atoms. We have found that the large magnetic moment of 6 $μ_B$ results in an event rate coefficient for dipolar relaxation processes of up to $3.2\cdot10^{-11}$ cm$^{3}$s$^{-1}$ at a magnetic field of 44 G. We present a theoretical model based on pure dipolar coupling, which predicts dipolar relaxation rates in agreement with our experimental observations. This very general approach can be applied to a large variety of dipolar gases.

description: There is a need of ensuring machine learning models that are interpretable. Higher interpretability of the model means easier comprehension and explanation of future predictions for end-users. Further, interpretable machine learning models allow healthcare experts to make reasonable and data-driven decisions to provide personalized decisions that can ultimately lead to higher quality of service in healthcare. Generally, we can classify interpretability approaches in two groups where the first focuses on personalized interpretation (local interpretability) while the second summarizes prediction models on a population level (global interpretability). Alternatively, we can group interpretability methods into model-specific techniques, which are designed to interpret predictions generated by a specific model, such as a neural network, and model-agnostic approaches, which provide easy-to-understand explanations of predictions made by any machine learning model. Here, we give an overview of interpretability approaches and provide examples of practical interpretability of machine learning in different areas of healthcare, including prediction of health-related outcomes, optimizing treatments or improving the efficiency of screening for specific conditions. Further, we outline future directions for interpretable machine learning and highlight the importance of developing algorithmic solutions that can enable machine-learning driven decision making in high-stakes healthcare problems.

XMM-Newton observation of Kepler's supernova remnant

description: We present the first results coming from the observation of Kepler's supernova remnant obtained with the EPIC instruments on board the XMM-Newton satellite. We focus on the images and radial profiles of the emission lines (Si K, Fe L, Fe K) and of the high energy continuum. Chiefly, the Fe L and Si K emission-line images are generally consistent with each other and the radial profiles show that the Si K emission extends to a larger radius than the Fe L emission (distinctly in the southern part of the remnant). Therefore, in contrast to Cas A, no inversion of the Si- and Fe-rich ejecta layers is observed in Kepler. Moreover, the Fe K emission peaks at a smaller radius than the Fe L emission, which implies that the temperature increases inwards in the ejecta. The 4-6 keV high energy continuum map shows the same distribution as the asymmetric emission-line images except in the southeast where there is a strong additional emission. A two color image of the 4-6 keV and 8-10 keV high energy continuum illustrates that the hardness variations of the continuum are weak all along the remnant except in a few knots. The asymmetry in the Fe K emission-line is not associated with any asymmetry in the Fe K equivalent width map. The Si K maps lead to the same conclusions. Hence, abundance variations do not cause the north-south brightness asymmetry. The strong emission in the north may be due to overdensities in the circumstellar medium. In the southeastern region of the remnant, the lines have a very low equivalent width and the X-ray emission is largely nonthermal.

description: A numerical method based on Matrix Product Formalism is proposed to study the phase transitions and shock formation in the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process with open boundaries and parallel dynamics. By working in a canonical ensemble, where the total number of the particles is being fixed, we find that the model has a rather non-trivial phase diagram consisting of three different phases which are separated by second-order phase transition. Shocks may evolve in the system for special values of the reaction parameters.
