Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze the differences in financial performance, productivity, and patient care performance between metropolitan and non - metropolitan hospitals and examine the factors affecting profitability of both groups. Methods : The survey period consisted of three years of data that can identify the financial performance of the hospital. The survey subjects were selected from 58 metropolitan hospitals, 87 non - metropolitan hospitals and 147 hospitals. Results : There was a significant difference in stability, activity, cost index, productivity, and patient care performance between the metropolitan and non - metropolitan hospitals, and metropolitan hospitals showed a relatively higher ratio. Conclusions : In the metropolitan and non-metropolitan hospitals, the variables of productivity and cost index increase the profitability. However, if the factors with less influence on the results of the study are applied to the variables of various situations, it may have a great influence on the profitability increase.

Purpose - Based on complexity theory, this study develops a configurational model to predict the profitability of Halal cosmetics firms in the Indonesian and Malaysian markets. The proposed research model involves two level configurations-industry context and selling strategies-to predict high and low scores of a firm's profitability. The industry context configuration model comprises industry stability, product homogeneity, price sensitivity, and switching cost. Selling strategies include customer-focused, competitor-focused, and margin-focused approaches. Design/methodology - This is the first empirical study that calculates causal models using a combination of industry context and selling strategy factors to predict profitability. Data obtained from the marketing managers of cosmetics firms are used to test the proposed configurational model using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). It contributes to the current knowledge of business marketing by identifying the factors necessary to achieve profitability using analysis of condition (ANC). Findings - The results revealed that unique and distinct models explain the conditions for high and low profitability in the Indonesian and Malaysian halal cosmetic markets. While customer-focused selling strategy is necessary to attain a higher profit in both the markets, margin-focused selling strategy appears to be an essential factor only in Malaysia. Complexity of the interactions of selling strategies with industry factors and differences between across two study markets confirmed that complexity theory can support the research configurational model. The theoretical and practical implications are also illustrated. Originality/value - Despite the rapid growth of the global halal industry, there is little knowledge about the halal cosmetic market. This study contributes to the current literature of the halal market by performing a set of asymmetric analytical approaches using a complex theoretical model. It also deepens our understating of how the Korean firms can approach the Muslim consumer's needs to generate more beneficial turnover/revenue.

은행의 수익성과 관련하여 어떠한 요인들이 영향을 미치는지 연구하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 은행의 수익성 개선을 위한 자금조달구조의 다양화 측면에서 기존연구와 달리 시장성수신비중을 주요 관심변수로 하여 8개의 설명변수와 총자산영업이익률을 수익성 지표로 사용하여 가설설정하고 전체기간과 금융위기 전 후 로 비교 분석하여 차이를 보고자 한다. 다중회귀분석한 결과, 모든 분석기간에서 유의미한 결과가 나타나는 수익성 요인은 원화예대금리차, 점포수, 고정이하여신비율이며 국내은행은 원화예대금리차가 커지고 점포수가 증가할수록 수익성도 향상되고 부실여신이 증가하면 수익성도 하락하는 것을 알 수 있다. 시장성수신비중은 은행의 수익성에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 주지는 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 글로벌 금융위기이전에는 거시경제지표의 영향을 받기 보다는 개별 은행의 상황 및 다른 금융환경의 영향을 더 받았다는 것을 알 수 있으며 금융위기이후에는 은행의 여신이 증가하면서 수익성도 향상되는 것으로 추정할 수 있다. 은행의 수익성 요인은 분석 기간별 특징이 있다고 추론되며 이에 그 의미와 시사점을 가진다. 향후 은행산업의 수익성에 관한 연구는 특수은행이 포함된 국내은행 전체로 대상을 확대할 필요가 있다.

This study has two main purposes; first, it examines the effect of capital structure on profitability of Islamic and conventional banks; second, it determines that whether the capital structure of Islamic and conventional banks is same or not. A sample of ten banks was taken over the period 2006-2016. Independent samples T-test was used for finding the comparison between the capital structure of Islamic and conventional banks while for assessing the impact of capital structure on profitability, regression analysis (Fixed effects model) was used. Results showed that the capital structure of both types of banks was similar except for bank size which differed significantly. Moreover, ROA was negatively correlated to the capital structure of both conventional and Islamic banks. In contrast, ROE was positively correlated to the capital structure of both conventional and Islamic banks. In addition to that, two explanatory variables were positively correlated while two were negatively correlated to EPS for both Islamic and conventional banks. This study proves the existence of prominent theories of capital structure (pecking order theory and trade-off theory) for both conventional and Islamic banks in Pakistan and also validates the economies of scale.

Objectives : The purposes of this study was to analyze business performance of university hospitals for the past 10 years. Methods : Management and finance data from 2005 to 2014 were collected from balance sheets, income statements and annual reports from 27 university hospitals. The dependant variable used was profitability which included return on assets, operating margin and net profit to gross revenues 1. The independent variables were general characteristics, liquidity, stability, activity and financial ratios. Results : University hospitals over the last 10 years had achieved good management performance. Using financial leverage, patient revenues, operating profit, nonpatient revenues, total assets and total debt, the total amount had increased by more than double. The ratio of fixed liability and fixed assets turnover was found to have a significant positive (+) effect on management performance in the years 2012-2014. Conclusions : Based on these results, this study suggests a more in-depth analysis using fixed liabilities and fixed assets.

This study aims to examine the influence of growth rate, profitability and current ratio, which are confronted with static trade-off theory and pecking order theory, on capital structure of superior hospital and bankrupt hospital. Firstly, superior hospitals show positive correlation between growth rate and short-term loans, long-term loans, and short-term liabilities while bankrupt hospitals represent negative correlation. Superiority hospital and bankruptcy hospital show different financing behaviors, especially, short-term loan is the significant characteristic that discriminates between superior hospital and bankrupt hospital. Secondly, this paper studied the correlation between profitability and short-term loan, which the superior hospitals shows negative correlation, to contrast, bankrupt hospital have positive correlation. Consequently, the short-term loan is the most distinguishable factor between the superior hospital and bankrupt hospitals in terms of profitability. To conclude, this study shows that excess short-term loans can be the most important cause for hospital's bankrupt. Accordingly, strategic and effective policy about the short-term loan will be required in order to protect hospital's bankrupt.

COVID-19 struck without warning, and by the first quarter of 2020, the world had plunged into a state of total closure as a means of containing the pandemic's devastating effect. Certainly, the pandemic shook many economies; some countries were able to cope, while third-world countries lost their invulnerability. Based on this, the current study looked at financial reports from Kuwaiti conventional and Islamic banks from 2019 to 2020 (before and after the pandemic) and compared the findings to see how much of an impact Kuwaiti conventional and Islamic banks had during the COVID-19 epidemic. Financial analysis of financial reports was used as a quantitative methodology, and variables were compared and analyzed, including (the liquidity ratio, profitability ratio, and financial leverage) within (14) Kuwaiti conventional and Islamic banks. The study found that the pandemic had a detrimental impact on both conventional and Islamic banks in Kuwait, as they were the first line of defense for the Kuwaiti economy during lockdowns and quarantines. Furthermore, there were significant implications on the Rate of Return on Investment, Debt, Financial Leverage, and Return on Equity.

본 연구는 논에 타 작물(사료작물)인 콩과 이탈리안 라이그라스, 콩과 감자, 콩과 보리의 작부체계를 신규 도입한 농가를 비교 분석하여 시사점을 도출하고, 기술적 해결사항 등을 파악하였다. 콩 및 이탈리안 라이그라스(IRG) 논 작부체계 수익성으로는 콩의 10a당 수량은 325kg이고, kg당 판매단가는 3,962원으로 총수입은 1,288천원이었다. IRG의 10a당 수량은 1,584kg이고, kg당 판매단가는 125원으로 총수입은 198천원이었다. 콩 10a당 소득은 284천원으로 소득률은 22.1%였다. IRG 10a당 소득은 ▽30천원이었다. 콩과 감자, 콩과 보리의 10a당 총수입은 각각 930,000원, 375,000이었다. 작부체계의 유형으로는 소득형 작부체계, 조사료의 생산형, 식량자급률 제고형, 기후변화 대응형, 등 다양한 작부체계 유형이 개발되고 있으나 권역별로 다양한 작부체계 모형은 부족한 상태이며, 대체작목 선정과 지역에 맞는 유형별 작부체계의 재배기술을 더 체계적으로 확립하여야 한다. 경지 이용률과 곡물자급률 등 중장기 목표를 가지고 끊임없는 관련 연구를 통한 작부체계의 기술적 확립이 필요한 시점이라고 할 수 있다.
