This experimental study has utilized a 2*2 between subjects factorial design. Independent variables that are manipulated in this paper are retrospective source of finance and prospective source of finance. The sample consists of 160 participants including executive experts and academic persons assigned to one of the four groups through random assignment. Results show that managers are less likely to part with a debt financed asset in comparison with an identical equity financed asset. The reason behind above reluctance is related to the managers’ perceptions about the asset’s past benefits. This study shows that a psychological factor may cause managers to forego investments that they should invest according to the capital budgeting techniques. In this way, the results can contribute to the accounting literature through providing valuable information for capital budgeting studies. Manuscript profile -

For this purpose, using Grounded Theory Method and deep and unstructured interviews with the people who are directly involved in the budget preparation process at the sample Iranian universities, we established a paradigm model containing causal conditions, axial phenomenon, context, intervening conditions, action/interaction strategies, and the consequences. The research is done using MAXQDA software version 10 for open coding and Excel 2013 for axial and selective coding.After open, axial, and selective coding, it is extracted that the axial phenomenon in this research is "budgeting as a negotiation process". This axial phenomenon along with context and intervening conditions lead to some action or interaction strategies. Finally, the phenomenon of "slack in budget preparation" is appeared as the main consequence of this paradigm model. Manuscript profile -

If an effective control system is needed to improve the implementation of an organization's strategies, the characteristics of this control system must be identified. Accordingly, it is necessary to identify regulatory factors in the implementation of the strategy. A quality information system can meet the monitoring needs of its users well and provide user performance and consequently the organization, so management accounting information systems can be used to support the desired strategies. The main purpose of this study is to identify regulatory factors in the implementation of the strategy management accounting information using an exploratory approach and correlation test. The statistical sample of this research includes 384 members of the board of directors of companies in Fars province, which were studied in 1400. To test the hypotheses, the data were analyzed by structural equation modeling and exploratory analysis. In this study, first, by combining financial and non-financial indicators based on management accounting information, regulatory factors in the implementation of the strategy were identified. Then, through the factor analysis test of information provided by the budget, financial and non-financial performance indicators are examined in order to supervision the implementation of the strategy. The results showed that the information provided by the budget and financial and non-financial performance indicators are used to supervision the implementation of the strategy. The theoretical value of this research is to establish the relationship between various indicators within the organization with the strategic plan and explain the quality of this relationship. The practical value of this research is to suggest corrective measures in the control system and strategic system of an organization, which if implemented, the monitoring system of the implementation of an organization's strategy will be upgraded.

Although much research has been done in the past to optimize the time-cost trade off problem (TCT), in this paper, the project accounting approach has been used in the uncertain terms of receiving the allocated budget, the uncertainty associated with the cost of project activities and its duration. From the innovations of this research, the combination of generalized prerequisite relationships (GPRs) with the various modes of implementation of the activities and scenarios is continuous, discrete and combined (continuous / discrete). Chance constraint programming (CCP) has been used to terminate the variable budget. Stochastic budget limitations are at a predetermined level of confidence. Program evaluation review technique (PERT) has been used to estimate uncertain times, and to calculate the uncertain costs of the operating modes of activities; the triangulation method has been used. The mathematical model, which is to minimize the total time of the project, was solved by software (GAMS), taking into account the early remuneration at the completion of the project and the late delinquency, and was implemented on a real numeric sample to prove the function and validation of the model. Different scenarios have been proposed that the effect of each of them on budget changes and uncertainty over time on direct, indirect, total and project costs are reviewed. Manuscript profile -

This research, with the introduction of productivity as an alternative to the outcomes, presents a mathematical model for performance-based budgeting in order to allocate budget to productivity criteria. New trends in budgeting are process-oriented, so the productivity is suitable for PBB. This research presents a mathematical model for PBB. The model has been designed by Chebyshev's goal programming technique. Data for calculating productivity indicators were collected from gas refineries of Iran in 2011–2015 and analyzed by Excel and GAMS software. Then, the model was tested for determining the 2016 budget of those refineries. The model was solved by LINGO software by linking it to Excel. The solution of the model reduced 1.47% of the total refinery's budget compared with the actual budgets for 2016. The results of this study showed that the presented model provides significant improvement in the level of achievement of goals and the objective function. Saving costs and collecting funds from low-productivity units and directing them to high productivity is a strategic and important policy. Manuscript profile -

So budgeting technique has got a very important and vital role in achieving the goals of municipalities. The main goal of this paper is presenting the operational budget strategies to enhance revenue management of Shahdieh Municipality that this goal, has been done by studying the procedures and methods of budgeting of Shahdieh. Method: our method is "descriptive analysis". For statistical data analysis we have used of t-test, Wilcoxon test and the Friedman statistics. Results: revenues from general tax of the municipality of Shahdieh from 49.7 percent in 1380 have been decreased to 29.4 percent in 1387. The increasing costs during the current municipal revenues over 1381- 87 with year separation respectively equivalents 24.3 percent, 26.2 percent, 29.8 percent, 28.1 percent, 16.9 percent and 29 percent has continued in distance between 1386- 87. Conclusion: The results show that the budgeting of municipality of Shahdieh as an important indicator to the performance planning and evaluation capabilities has not been able to help to the urban management. Indeed, division and classification of costs in the current municipality is not a suitable and reliable basis for decision making, planning and control of function. So one of the main reasons for the weakness in budgeting system of municipality of Shahdieh is lack of specialist staffing and experts in budgeting. Manuscript profile -

In this study, the performance of BUDGET model in irrigation scheduling was assessed and compared with real data under soybean deficit irrigation water management under two consecutive years 2008 and 2009. The experiment was conducted in the form of randomized complete blocks design in four furrow irrigation treatments each with three replicates. The treatments include full irrigation, (control), conventional deficit irrigation at 50% and 75% of the soil moisture deficit compensation, and partial root drying treatment at 50% of the soil moisture deficit compensation. The results indicated that the performance modeling indices of RMSE and CRM in 2008 were 3.91 and -0.18 and in 2009 were 4.76 and -0.11, respectively. The obtained EF index was 0.69 and 0.78 in 2008 and 2009, respectively, indicating that the model performed acceptable predictions of crop yield. The overall results revealed that the use of BUDGET model by adjusting crop coefficients in different growth stages, soil and plant characteristics can provide more acceptable outputs. Further, the sensitivity analysis indicated that BUDGET model is less sensitive to irrigation water depth and initial soil water content in the full irrigation treatment. Manuscript profile -

The main objective of operational budgeting is to clarify the budget and to help optimal allocation and use of organizational resources. The present study aims to use interpretive structural modeling (ISM) to design a model for operational budgeting in Ghadir Investment Company. First, the literature review and expertise opinions were applied to identify 14 factors underpinning operational budgeting. Then, an ISM-based structured matrix questionnaire was designed to find out the interrelationships of these factors, and the data were plotted at seven levels in an interactive network using ISM. The results revealed that the most influential factor in driving power-dependence matrix is “annual budget and five-year development plan” so that the company’s operational budget heavily depends on this factor.

The purpose of this article is to determine the variation of each effective parameter in the heat balance of Uremieh lake. Heat balance can play an important role in the physics, meteorology and water movement of Uremieh lake. in this article, each heat budget term equation, by means of empirical relations and satellite measured information such as (water and weather temperature, cloud cover, wind speed, relative humidity, and the pressure of solar radiation of filled steam) has calculated and its measures (Qsw=8183.42 & QLw=-2651.47 & QS = 360.57 & QL = 5173.9 W/m2) is obtained later the effective of this atmosphere parameter on heat budget terms is analyzed and discussed. finally, the measurements obtained are compared with medium worldwide and concluded that the heat exchange among the sea, atmosphere, wind, basin volume, etc. can create processes in the lake and help to heat transmission. Its measure equals (QV = -86.05 W/m2) By obtaining these heat measurments we see that there is a good balance between the lake heat budget terms. Manuscript profile -

The results were obtained as follows: Albedo ratio in the West of Yazd city is more than the east due to city texture and Architecture of Yazd city. The amount of Aledo in the city area is reduced roughly to 2 percent because of the precipitation. Average outgoing long wave flux at night in the northern area is more than the south area. The difference is 4 watts per square meter. This difference is due to the heat generated by the anthropogenic phenomenon. Because of the atmospheric turbidity in the northern area incoming short wave radiation is lower than that south area in cloudy and clear conditions. So, in the cloudy weather conditions, it received only 15 percent of the energy input in the clear condition. The amount of sensible heat flux is not high in the city this month. In the early hours of the night in the northern part of the city a sensible heat flux remains negative due to the production of anthropogenic heat. Sometimes the difference between north and south of the city is eight watts per square meter. Like other components of the radiation budget of the terrestrial heat flux distribution is not uniform and the amount in the south is more than that north. During the day the distribution is different in the north and south of about 21 watts per square meter. Latent heat flux between the north and south of the city is observed, while sometimes the opposite is taking place. Manuscript profile -

The overall results suggest that stock index differentials, the interest rates differentials, net capital inflows, net bond inflows, budget deficit and the relative efficiency of non-tradable sector have a negative and significant impact on the exchange rate. However, the inflation rate differentials and the relative efficiency of tradable sector have a positive effect. Inflation, deficit and the relative efficiency of tradable sector showed to have the greatest impact on the exchange rate returns. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce the role of the government through the transfer of activities to the nongovernmental sector and less government intervention in the economy to reduce the adverse effects of the budget deficit on macroeconomic performance, to prevent a sharp increase in liquidity in the community, and to reduce the conversion of oil revenues to rials relative to Reducing inflation, and improving efficiency index, especially that of tradable sector to preserve the value of the national currency is helpful.

For this purpose, the system of simultaneous equations was used based on Iranian Registry data from 1976 to 1978. Estimated coefficients for the effect of financing through public-private partnerships and government funding on development were tested. The results showed that public-private partnership financing was about four times more likely to affect development than government funding. This difference is not rejected at the 98% level. It is proposed to increase the share of financing through public-private partnerships rather than through government funding to further the development goals.This move, in addition to freeing up government funding for other development goals, allows for increased private sector participation.

Main part of educational and research institutions are financed and managed by state planning and budget. That is where the government is involved in society and political economy area. On the other hand the factors that attract educated elite of different countries can be seen in world political economy. The aim of the present article is proper understanding of the factors pertaining to the structure of education and research in Iran and the way the weaknesses of this structure affects the intensification of emigration of best educated and specialist to abroad. For this allocation of budget in educational and research fields are examined within the framework of attraction and repulsion theory and the attractive and repulsive factors are identified which creates the potential condition for emigration of the elite to abroad. The finding of the study shows that factor like lack of economic support which includes little investment in educational and research sector are the factors that accelerate emigration of the elite. These factors can be seen in several indexes like the ratio of research budget to gross domestic product of the country, the ratio of active researcher to the population of the country and allocation of research of budget by private and public sector. On the other hand in the developed countries in the above said indexes ample facilities are provided which act as an attractive factor for absorbing educated specialists and elite. The above factors are among the most important economic factors of emigration of scientific elite to abroad in 2001 decade (1380-1390 Iranian years). The paper has used descriptive-analytical method in analyzing data. Manuscript profile -

The main objective of these plans in the agriculture sector was to make the agricultural economy more market-oriented and to encourage sustainable agriculture. This paper investigates the extent to which Iran's government has been able to achieve this objective in the case of wheat. For this purpose, Producer Support Estimate (PSE) and Consumer Support Estimate (CSE) indicators for Iranian wheat are calculated and discussed. Generally, producers’ and consumers’ support is achieved chiefly by distorting market prices. As will be shown, from 1989 to 2006, the PSE increased about 20 times (in real prices), while the level of production increased 1.69 times. However, the PSE had no significant causal relationship with either wheat yield or its area under cultivation. With respect to consumers’ support, this was found to be positive for Iranian wheat, a result that is uncommon for most developed and developing countries. Recent agricultural policies in Iran do not appear to encourage international competitiveness for wheat and are making the wheat economy more dependent on support prices. We suggest that policy makers reconsider the method of subsidization and the pricing system, at least in the case of wheat. Manuscript profile -

In this regard, theemphasis has been on Islamic participation bonds offered by the Central Bank. Forthis purpose, statistical data from the period 1992-2020 and structural vectorautoregression model (SVAR) were used. The results of this study showed that theimpetus from the supply of participation bonds as a tool for monetary policy and anIslamic financial instrument has led to the fact that the amount of business cycles inthe Iranian economy is not moderated. In fact, the results showed that the variablesof budget deficit, exchange relationship and price were the most important variablesaffecting business cycles in the Iranian economy. The results showed thatparticipation bonds could not act as an anti-cyclical policy tool in the Iranianeconomy. Considering the results of how Islamic financial instruments affectbusiness cycles in the Iranian economy, it is necessary to recognize the impact ofgovernment budget deficit and its financing.

In many countries, the budget deficit policy is used as one of the tools of financial policy. The relationship between the government budget deficit and the macroeconomic variables is somewhat ambiguous. All data related to inflation, budget deficit and money supply growth rate have been collected from the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Iranian Statistical Center. Econometric methods including stability test, White, Johansson and vector regression test (VAR) were used to examine the hypothesis. The results of the present study show a positive and significant relationship between budget deficit, inflation and money supply growth that confirms the hypotheses of the study. Manuscript profile -

As a unique phenomenon in the world, only the U.S. government has experienced several shutdowns and the emergence of the Tea Party movement added a new dimension to the political narrative of the U.S. domestic politics in 2009. Hence, simultaneous study of both phenomena as two very controversial cases in the American political system is sought in this paper. To do so, both phenomena are needed to be examined through their historical contexts. Therefore, the theory of “historical consciousness” introduced by Theodor Schieder (1978) is applied as the theoretical framework and, “historical analysis” is assumed as the proper methodology for data analysis. By referring to Boston Tea Party as an iconic event in the American history that gave birth to the idea of the Tea Party in the American political mind, this thesis identifies the core principles of the Tea Party as the same throughout the history. Tea Partiers regard big governments as threats to individual’s liberty. Therefore, the notion of limited government is placed at the center of Tea Party ideology. This research investigates the means by which the Tea Party succeeded to mobilize and unify all potentialities to form a resistance force for defunding ObamaCare and succeed to prevent passing every appropriations including provisions for funding ObamaCare in the House of Representatives. Therefore, the lack of needed appropriations for funding the government, finally led to the government shutdown of 2013. Manuscript profile -

In order to achieve social and intergenerational justice, it is considered important to use generational accounting and update the budget and tax policies. The purpose of this research is to explain the relationship between budget strategies and social justice by considering generational accounting in Iran. In the first stage, relevant English and Farsi articles were selected using the CASP Critical Assessment Skills program. Then, using them, the main variables were identified, i.e., generational accounting as an independent variable, intergenerational justice as a dependent variable, and budget policies as a mediating variable and their components. In the following, these variables and their related components were given to 15 experts through a fuzzy Delphi questionnaire to confirm their reliability. Then, in order to validate the final model of the research, a 5-choice questionnaire with approved components was designed and distributed to 235 experts, accountants and experts through the Persa site, and the correlation coefficient and regression of the hypotheses using It was analyzed by spss software. The findings showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between generational accounting, budget commitments and policies, budget strategies and intergenerational justice with social justice. Therefore, considering the importance of budget strategies for future generations and its impact on social and generational justice, it is necessary for our country to consider them.

In project cost management, using a set of techniques and principles for project and financial control, it is possible to examine the financial performance of each project in terms of its actual operating cost (actual cost) compared to the estimated cost for the work performed and the corrective solutions to reduce costs And put it under control.Since reducing the duration of activities by allocating more resources to each activity is possible but requires higher costs for the implementation of those activities, it should be noted that the hasty pursuit of activities can lead to a decrease in its quality level Therefore, in the process of compressing the time of activities, in addition to the cost index, the activity quality index should also be considered. In this paper, a mathematical model for project cost management based on the critical path method approach is presented. Considering a specific figure under the project budget ceiling, two goals are to minimize the total cost of the project (the classical model) and aim to maximize the quality of the activities, simultaneously.

Due to the lacking deep certainty in this sort of venture, relying on traditional approaches could end up with inappropriate decision making, because of ignoring the managerial flexibility. At this study the real option approach in estimated capital budgeting was compared with traditional approach based on Discounting the income. The research hypothesis was that the real option approach could improve the quality of decision making and optimize the investing portfolio from the high risk projects. Accordingly, a venture capital company in the field of pharmaceutical products and medical and therapeutic equipment was chosen for applying the model considering two indicators of the availability and completeness of the financial information of the plans by using the case study approach. The results indicated that considering the value of flexible deciding, the efficacy of the capital budgeting model based on dynamic planning and real options shows more precision than traditional budgeting approach.
