Financial optimization modeling on asset liability management with weighted goal programming Pages 951-966 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Hagni Wijayanti, Sudradjat Supian, Diah Chaerani, Adibah Shui

DOI: 10.5267/j.dsl.2024.7.004

Keywords: Financial Ratio, Factor Analysis, Optimization, Multi Objective, Weighted Goal Programming, Best-Worst Method

Abstract:
Asset Liability Management (ALM) can be overseen using financial ratios derived from financial statements. These statements provide a comprehensive picture of a company's status and necessitate analysis to evaluate performance. This research aims to analyze financial ratios to describe the financial condition, measure business development over time, and evaluate the achievement of the company's objectives. An optimization analysis of financial ratios is performed using the Weighted Goal Programming (WGP) model, which addresses multiple objectives by applying weights based on their priorities. The Best-Worst Method (BWM) was used to determine the priority weights of deviation variables from each financial ratio target. Financial ratios were selected based on their impact on profit using factor analysis. The constructed WGP model aims to minimize deviations in Return on Assets, Operating Ratios, Operating Income Ratio, Total Assets Turnover, and Current Ratio. Computational calculations to solve the WGP model are performed using Python, with pseudocode provided. A case study on a company in the garment and textile sector was conducted and found that the Operating Ratio, Return on Assets, Operating Income Ratio, and Current Ratio still need improvement by developing strategies to achieve the targets. Sensitivity analysis was also employed to assess the resilience of the model in response to alterations in data.

Abstract:
The purpose of the research is to identify critical success factors and model developing for sustaining kaizen implementation. Peacock shoe is one of the manufacturing industries in Ethiopia facing challenges on sustaining. The methodology followed is factor analysis and empirically testing hypothesis. A database was designed using SPSS version 20. The survey was validated using statistical validation using the Cronbach alpha index; the result is 0.908. The KMO index value was obtained for the 32 items and had a value of 0.642 with Bartlett's Test of Sphericity Approx. Chi-Square 4503.007, degree of freedom 496 and significance value 0.000. A factor analysis by principal components and varimax rotation was applied for finding the critical success factors. Finding designates that 32 items were merged into eight critical success factors. All the eight factors together explain for 76.941 % of the variance. Multiple regression model analysis has indicated that some of the critical success factors had relationship with success indicators. Due to constraint of time, the researcher focused only at peacock shoe manufacturing industry. Other limitation also includes the absence of any local research that shows the critical success factors at the moment.

Factors influencing behavior intentions to use virtual reality in education Pages 733-742 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Mohammad AL-Oudat, Ahmad Mousa Altamimi

DOI: 10.5267/j.ijdns.2022.3.008

Keywords: Virtual Reality, Teaching Acceptance Model, SPSS, Factor analysis, Sustainable learning

Abstract:
Virtual reality (VR) is a new technology that has applications in a variety of sectors, including medical, education, gaming, psychology, and sociology. The application of VR in education is intriguing and warrants further examination, but research on the subject is currently restricted. VR can benefit education by allowing students to participate in memorable and engaging experiences that they would not otherwise be able to have. Traditional approaches are still used to teach students, which is an essential element of the curriculum for those who want to conceive problem-solving. As a result, there is a scarcity of study on VR deployment. In this paper, we investigated the factors affecting the adoption of VR in higher educational institutes. To this end, we extended the technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with four additional factors and formulated a set of hypotheses. The hypotheses are then evaluated using a dataset collected from 503 Jordanian students. The result shows that the factors perceived facilitating condition, perceived effort expectancy, and perceived compatibility significantly affected the intention to use VR systems and tools for educational purposes. We believe that this study will help decision makers to build sustainable learning and educational systems in Jordan universities.

Technology acceptance drivers for AR smart glasses in the middle east: A quantitative study Pages 193-208 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Abdulla Alsharhan, Said A. Salloum, Ahmad Aburayya

DOI: 10.5267/j.ijdns.2021.9.008

Keywords: Augmented Reality, Smart Glasses, ARSG, Technology Acceptance Model, Technology Adoption, Intention to Use Technology, Wearable, Clustering, Factor Analysis, Persona, Middle East

Abstract:
This study aims to establish Middle East users' perspectives on the major factors that impact their decision to adopt Augmented Reality AR smart glasses (ARSG). Thus, an online questionnaire was designed and sent directly to the respondents, and 584 valid data points were collected from individuals living in the Middle East. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlations and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) techniques using SPSS. Eleven hypotheses were tested using Multiple Regression analysis, where seven independent variables out of eleven were confirmed to have a significant impact on the perceived adoption of ARSG. The results indicate that four of the independent variables including Pre-Market Knowledge, Image, Own privacy and Technology innovativeness show the significant impact on ARSG adoption at the 1% significant level. In addition, the results indicate that three of the social and technological factors include Perceived Ease of use, Perceived usefulness and Other's privacy show the significant effect on ARSG adoption at the 5% significant level. Among the 7 social and technological factors, the results suggest that technology innovation expresses the strongest effect on ARSG adoption with the highest coefficient value of 0.413 (b = 0.413, t = 12.881, ρ < 0.01). Moreover, user intention is significantly impacted by gender and place of living but not by education or age. The research also provides pre-market insights on users' personal types that represent who will most likely adopt the new smart glasses and that differentiate them based on their priorities. To the best of our knowledge, this is among the first works to investigate technology acceptance drivers of AR smart glasses in the Middle East.
