Druhá kapitola je zaměřena na popis ukazatele EVA, možnosti jeho výpočtu, stanovení nákladů na vlastní kapitál a pyramidálnímu rozkladu ukazatele EVA. Ve třetí kapitole jsou popsány možnosti predikce ukazatele EVA metodou Monte Carlo a odhad parametrů dílčích ukazatelů dle Vašíčkova procesu. Teoretické vymezení problematiky predikce ekonomické přidané hodnoty je v závěrečné části ověřeno na reálných datech společnosti ČEZ, a. s.The aim of the thesis is verification the possibility of prediction of the economic value added to the financial data of a company ČEZ by using estimated stochastic processes of partial financial indicators. The prediction will be realized by using simulation Monte Carlo for the next eight quarters. The first part of the thesis contains a description of the company and the development of its financial situation. The second part focuses on the description of the economic value added, the possibilities of its calculation, determining the cost of equity capital and the pyramidal decomposition of the EVA. The third part describes verification the possibility of prediction EVA by using method Monte Carlo and estimation the parameters of the component indicators by Vasick´s process. The theoretical specification of prediction of EVA defined in the previous parts will be in the final part verified on real data of company ČEZ.154 - Katedra financívelmi dobř

DIFFICULTIES IN WRITING ESSAYS OF ENGLISH MAJORED SOPHOMORES AT TAY DO UNIVERSITY, VIETNAM

Writing skill is an important part of communication, which helps people express ideas, experiences, and feeling exactly. Good writing skill allows them to communicate their message with clarity and ease to a far larger audience than through face-to-face or telephone conversations. However, students often face some difficulties when writing. This survey research presents the process of the study of “Difficulties in writing essays of English majored sophomores at Tay Do University”. It was conducted to find out some difficulties in learning writing of 53 sophomores from 12A and 12B classes at Tay Do University. The questionnaire, interview questions, and essay samples were instruments of this research. The results showed that sophomores had many difficulties in writing essays such as vocabulary, grammar structures, idea arrangement, background knowledge, and others. Basing on the research results, students could recognize their difficulties and find ways to overcome them. Article visualizations

Evaluating the Ability to Achieve Efficiency in Providing Services of the Freight Forwarding Firms in Viet Nam

In recent years, Vietnam freight forwarding industry is growing and contributing significantly to the national GDP. However, the efficiency in providing service delivery at the domestic firms is not high to compete with multinational companies that are strong potential and finance. There have been many studies on freight forwarding, but mainly qualitative research and other studies are in-depth analysis logistics. This research presents the factors that affect efficiency in providing services. This research has been used factor analysis method and binary regression model (Binary Logistics) and identified 4 factors that affect the efficiency in providing service of freight forwarding firms: (1) Resources of business (2) Outcomes (3) The quality of staffs (4) The relationship between enterprises and their customers, and outcomes is the factor provided the highest positive correlation to the ability to achieve efficiency in providing services of freight forwarding firms.Binary Logistic model showed the probability of business efficiency is 72.5%. Thus, at the level of resources to provide services is 3.35, the outcome is 3.66, quality of the staffs is 3.59 and the relationship with customers is 3.40, shows that enterprises operate efficiently. Value prediction accuracy of the model is 93.3%

Adoption and impact of gaps in pig value chains: Implications for institutional policy and practice change

This paper investigates the adoption of VietGAHP, a set of guidelines for best practices in pig production, and evaluates impacts using quantitative and qualitative indicators. It tackles the following specific research questions: 1) What is the extent of adoption of VietGAHP among smallholder pig producers? 2) Is there a difference in performance between VietGAHP adopters and non-adopters? Outcomes from adoption and compliance with VietGAHP are assessed using reduction in mortality as a metric for efficacy. Cost-benefit comparisons are also made to illustrate economic outcomes as a measure of effectiveness. We employ statistical t-tests for mean comparison of outcomes between VietGAHP adopters and non-adopters and across exposed and control sites. Our study shows productivity gains from practice and behavioral changes elicited from adoption and compliance with VietGAHP outweigh the costs of doing so, at least at the household level. The observed economic and market incentives could boost the adoption of VietGAHP if these incentives are sustained with appropriate institutions in place. Scalability could be facilitated by exposure via demonstration effects. Peer-to-peer learning is an effective strategy in enhancing capacity for uptake. With exposure being strongly linked to uptake, regardless of gender of respondents, training opportunities for non-exposed groups are worthwhile to pursue

Factors affecting intention to purchase organic agriculture products among Vietnamese

Globally, customer intention to purchase has become the essential part of the product and organization's success in the market. More recently, the idea has captured the attention of academic and policymakers alike. Therefore, the current article analyses product quality features such as agreeableness, emotional stability conscientiousness, openness to experience and extroversion on the intention to purchase organic agricultural products in the context of Vietnam. The study also analyses the mediating role of customer satisfaction between the association of product quality features and intention to purchase organic products in Vietnam. The present study uses questionnaires to collect data pertaining to the health sector of Vietnam. The current study employs the smart-PLS to analyze the constructs and items' reliability as well as the association among constructs. The results show that product quality features except extroversion have a positive and significant association with intention to purchase organic products in Vietnam. The results also reveal that customer satisfaction significantly and positively mediates among the associations of product quality features and intention to purchase organic products in Vietnam. This study is suitable for policymakers while formulating policies that may directly or indirectly affect customers' intention to purchase organic agricultural products.Luong Thu Thuy (Faculty of Economics, Academy of Finance, Vietnam), Tran Thi Phuong Diu (Faculty of Economics, Academy of Finance, Vietnam), Nguyen Dinh Hoan (Faculty of Economics, Academy of Finance, Vietnam), Vu Viet Ninh (Faculty of Economics, Academy of Finance, Vietnam), Nguyen Thi Thuy Nga (Faculty of Economics, Academy of Finance, Vietnam)Includes bibliographical reference

Measuring banking efficiency in Vietnam: parametric and non-parametric methods

The article aims to evaluate the business efficiency of commercial banks in Vietnam using both parametric and non-parametric approaches. In this study, the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA), which belongs to a parametric method, and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), a non-parametric approach, are applied to a sample of 30 joint stock commercial banks in Vietnam in the period of 2011–2015. Applying Tobit regression model, the impact of bank size, bank age, and the ownership feature on the efficiency of bank service industry in Vietnam is also investigated. The analysis results show that in general, the Vietnamese banking efficiency is improving during the selected period regardless of techniques used. However, there is small level of similarity in efficiency rankings identified from the SFA and DEA models. In terms of efficiency determinants, the results show that all three variables of size, age, and state ownership have a positive impact on bank efficiency
