    Comparison of some traits of economic importance in tilapias (Orechromis niloticus and Sarotherodon galilaeus) with particular reference to their culture in Ghana

    This study was conducted to determine which of the two major tilapia species in freshwater capture fisheries in Ghana, Oreochromis niloticus or Sarotherodon galilaeus, is more suitable for breed improvement and pond culture. It compares traits of economic importance, including seed output, specific growth rate, survival and sex ratios following androgen sex reversal. The results of the study showed that the aquaculture potential of S. galilaeus compares favorably with that of O. niloticus. However, S. galilaeus may be preferred because the males and females have an equal growth rate, which allows for manual sorting to raise both sexes in monosex culture, an inexpensive appropriate technology that an ordinary smallscale fish farmer can apply

    Consumer Participation - The Case of Public Housing

    Get PDF
    The participation of consumers, especially those from the deprived segments of society, in administrative decision-making, poses some perplexing dilemmas for public officials. Can the demands for participation be reconciled with the exigencies of administrative efficiency and effective service delivery. Our study focuses on consumer participation in public housing, an institution that today serves three million of the most deprived groups in society. The data used in the study came from a national sample of housing projects and was collected in 1978 by IWD\u27s division of Policy Studies. It was used to test the hypothesis that tenant participation would explain part of the variance in our dependent variable, the quantity and quality of housing services and resources. The findings are consistent with existing research that postulates that by granting the poor increased participation in the decisions of agencies that allocate goods and services, their access to such services was increased. The findings also make clear that tenant organizations lack the power to alter the provision of local government neighborhood services outside the projects

    Contractual Inequality

    Get PDF
    Most individuals strive to satisfy every obligation laid out in standard form contracts such as mortgages, insurance plans, or credit agreements. Sophisticated parties, however, adapt and modify their obligations during contract performance by negotiating for lenient treatment and taking advantage of unclear terms. The common law explicitly authorizes variance from standardized contract terms during performance. When the same standard terms create value for sophisticated individuals and destroy value for others, the result is contractual inequality. Contractual inequality has grown without scrutiny by courts or scholars, enabling regressive redistribution of resources and creating economic inefficiency by sowing distrust in markets for consumer contracts. To document the magnitude of contractual inequality, this Article provides novel empirical evidence from a case study of residential mortgage contracts. Data from a large nationwide sample show that many mortgage servicers choose not to utilize their power to foreclose on a borrower in default, with more than one-third of nonpaying borrowers avoiding foreclosure. Servicers disproportionately foreclose on borrowers in poor neighborhoods, regressively redistributing over $500 million in wealth to high-income communities each year. Moreover, servicers’ unfettered freedom to choose who undergoes foreclosure may have reduced the value of mortgages to consumers, increasing market inefficiency. Courts and regulators need not turn a blind eye to contractual inequality, allowing private market forces to determine the exercise of contract rights. This Article argues that lawmakers should gather information about inequalities in contract performance and disseminate such data to private and public enforcement authorities. By bringing these inequalities to light, lawmakers can take a first step toward more efficient contract markets and a more equal society

    An Evaluation of Organizational Culture as Regressor of Accounting Procedure: A Case Study at National Investment Bank, Western Region of Ghana

    Get PDF
    The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of organisational culture on accounting procedures at National Investment Bank (NIB), focusing on the various branches in the Western Region of Ghana. The study adopted the quantitative approach. The design employed the descriptive survey design. The study population was 62 permanent staff who were all considered for the study using the census method. Auxiliary employees such as cleaners, security staff and drivers were not considered. Questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.857 was the instrument used. The data were analysed using means, standard deviations, and linear multiple regression analysis. The findings show that staff of the bank perceived the organisational culture of the bank positively. Also, staffs were satisfied with the culture of the bank. The study found that though NIB’s organisational culture relates positively to staff level of satisfaction; it does not predict accounting procedures of the bank strongly. It does so through staff level of satisfaction. The study, therefore, conclude that organisational culture of the bank has significant influence on the bank’s adopted accounting procedures. It is recommended to board of directors and management of the bank to ensure that the bank nurture and regularised the internal control culture and roles of staff appropriately through the bank’s strategic planning. This will lead to high level of staff satisfaction in the bank’s culture. This condition will in the long run lead to the general improvement in the accounting procedures of the bank.

    Beyond Payment and Delivery Reform: The Individual Mandate’s Cost-Control Potential

    Get PDF
    Obamacare\u27s individual mandate, minimum coverage requirements, elimination of cost-sharing for preventive care, and minimum medical loss ratios work together to decrease patients\u27 decision costs, steering patients to particular choices that Congress deemed most efficient. If those regulations succeed in improving the efficiency of patients\u27 healthcare and insurance choices, then the resulting demand-side forces can help to decrease prices. This brief Essay does not attempt to evaluate the regulations\u27 success; it merely highlights the cost-control implications of Obamcare\u27s demand-side measures, noting that discussions of cost control should not focus exclusively on the statute\u27s supply-side effects
