Nonetheless, according to a periodic survey, the public has become dissatisfied with the social contribution activities of domestic corporations. The perceptions of the social contribution activities of domestic corporations and the public were found to be quite different.

Frontier (1976) suggested a criterion based on the expected length of ordered random intervals under the Broken-stick model (Barton and David, 1956) to determine the optimal number of principal components retained. It is considered to be one of the methods that provide the most consistent simulation results (Jackson, 1993). This study is aimed to propose a method using the distribution of ordered random intervals to evaluate the contribution of principal components. We also examine several types of Gini indices along with the corresponding Lorenz curves to visualize the overall equivalence of those contributions.

Firms initiate philanthropic activities to improve social welfare that is beyond the scope of their responsibility towards society. Forestry activities, among other philanthropic areas, simultaneously improve corporate environment and social performance and provide the opportunity to cooperate for a large number of employees. Firms can effectively contribute to forest conservation with their financial and human resources. To encourage participation of more firms, we need to understand how and why firms engage in such activities. This study aims to explore different types of philanthropic forestry activities that these firms undertake. Corporate philanthropic activities can be categorized as donation, in-house project, or collaboration according to the governance type. We analyzed Yuhan-Kimberly's forestry campaign to investigate how and why the firm engaged in each type. We also propose some practical implications for firms, government, and non-profit organizations to invigorate firm's participation in philanthropic forestry activities.
