        Accounting conservatism has recently been under attacked. For example, Financial Accounting StandardBoard (FASB) point out that conservatism increase conflict between qualitative characteristics such asrepresentational faithfulness, neutrality, and comparability. The Board concludes that any attempt tounderstate results consistently is likely to raise question about the reliability and integrity of informationabout those results. Recently, in the IASB and FASB joint conceptual framework, conservatism andprudence have been abolished. In other side, some of researchers such as Professor Watts from the universityof Rochester tried to provide a better understanding of accounting conservatism in Accounting Horizon(2003). He defended accounting conservatism by documenting of the research results.Watts suggests thatconservatism likely evolved from the contracting role of accounting. He argues that accounting conservatismhelps to reduce agent's opportunistic behavior and mitigates conflicts of interest over dividend policybetween shareholders and bondholders.This study, by adopting of new studies outcomes on accounting conservatism, develops a new firm-levelconservatism measure from Givoly & Hayn (2000) accrual model. This measure represents conservatismmeasure from an income statement and balance sheet perspective. The outcomes of the study indicated thataccounting conservatism measure has positively correlated to return on asset (ROA) and sale growth, on theother hand, has negatively correlated to leverage and cash flows from operations to total assets ratio.The research results show firms experiencing more severe bondholder-shareholder dividend policy conflictsadopt less conservative accounting and firms that use more conservative accounting incur a high debt ratio.The results also suggest existence of high income smoothing and show a strict decrease in accountingconservatism in Iranian financial reporting environment. This decrease accompanies with decreases ofprofitability index (ROA) and economic performance index (CFO/Asset). It seems governmental ownershipand governmental management and lack of management accountability are important factors of this problemin Iranian industries. The outcomes of this study differ from the US studies results. Manuscript profile

        In this thesis the effect of off-balance sheet financing on profitability ratios (ROA,ROE,ROI) inTehran Stock Exchange has been studied. In fact, this study is an answer to this question that "whateffects can off-balance sheet financing (operating lease) has on profitability ratios in Tehran StockExchange?" Off-balance sheet financing means investing or increasing firm´s capital (increaseoperating activities) according to law and accepted accounting concepts that all or part of thatfinancing is not shown on balance sheet and profitability ratios evaluate firm´s efficiency and ability tomake use of resources using sales revenue and investment.In this study causal-comparative method has been used. Which library method (exchange’s archive)were used for gathering needed information in theorical basis and financial information based auditedfinancial statement. In this study, firm´s profitability ratios before and after off-balance sheetfinancing, and firms having and without off-balance sheet financing are compared.Hypothesizes analysis show that, from 1380-1385, off-balance sheet financing hasn’t had considerableeffect on profitability ratios.

        One of the main activities of the commercial banks is to offer financial facilities. Usually, these financialfacilities are considered as a main asset and a primary source for bank revenues. These facilities can alsobring most risks for the banks. Two major activities of each bank are to attract and lend out funds. Thesuccession degree of a bank extremely depends on the optimum allocation of the funds. The aims of thisresearch consist on designing a mathematical model to optimize the allocation of funds for commercialbanks, designing a software for portfolio management of facilities, attracting profitable customers anddecreasing delayed or unpaid debts. In This research, Islamic contracts are used for modeling and the creditrisk is defined by the probability of a costumer's default. To avoid complication of the model and problemsolutions, which are caused by the plurality of the decision making variables and the constraints, a linearprogramming model have been used. The statistical population is state commercial banks and the sample isthe Bank of Mellat, using the year 2004 data. The main reason to choose the Bank of Mellat wereaccessibility and availability of the statistical data and bank information. The Designed model and thesoftware attained from this research can be used in all commercial banks and financial and credit institutions. Manuscript profile

        In the last decade, the theory of local fractional calculus has been successfully used to describe and solve fundamental science and engineering problems. In this article, the local fractional Yang-Laplace variational iteration method has been used for solving the local fractional partial differential equation on a cantor set. The non-differentiable exact and approximate solutions are obtained for kind of local fractional linear and nonlinear equations. It is shown that the used method is an efficient and easy method to implement for linear and nonlinear problems arising in science and engineering. In this article, we emphasize on the LFYLVM method which is a combination form of local fractional variational iteration method and Yang-Laplace transform. Most of the obtained solutions from this method are in series form that converge rapidly to exact or approximate solutions. Illustrative examples demonstrate that the method is able to reduce the volume of computation compared to the existing classical methods. Manuscript profile

        The Best-Worst Method (BWM) is one of the latest methods in Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problems. The mentioned method determines the optimal solution by forming and solving a Non-Linear Programming Model (NLPM). In respect to the difficulties of solving the relevant NLPM, some attempts have been made to provide Linear Programming Models (LPM) or Equivalent Mixed Linear Programming Models. But there are some deficiencies in each of the proposed models. In this paper, by removing the mentioned deficiencies, an algorithm was proposed to estimate the solution of BWM NLPM with an acceptable error by forming and solving Mixed Integer Linear Programming Models (MILPMs). In the suggested algorithm, first, the equivalent model of NLPM (ENLPM) was formed. Then by Piecewise Linear Approximation (PLA) using the SOS2 method, the non-linear sentences of ENLPM were approximated and the first MILP model was formed and solved. If the error of solution is not acceptable, improving the PLA of the ENLPM nonlinear sentences, the forming of new MILPMs, and its solving continues until a solution with acceptable error obtained. To investigate the reliability of the algorithm, a new method for generating samples was proposed. Then using this method, 128 samples with three and five attributes were generated. The results of implementing the proposed algorithm to solve generated samples showed the performance and efficiency of the proposed algorithm. In this regard by forming and solving a maximum of three MILPMs of the samples, an estimation of the solution with 1% error was obtained. Manuscript profile

        In this paper, as motivated by a work of Daffer et al. [6], we state and prove some theorems for set valued mappings and by them we conclude the existence of coincidence points and fixed points of a general class of set valued mappings satisfying a new generalized contractive condition which extends some well-known results in the literature. For this reason, firstly, by using a recent work of Eshaghi et al [11], we define the notion of orthogonal sets and by the notion, we consider our results in strongly orthogonal complete metric spaces (not necessarily complete metric spaces). In addition, this article has a new and different view on the subject and consists of several non-trivial examples which signify the motivation of such investigations. Also, in the end of this paper, by using our examples, we show that our results are real generalization of the previous results in the literature. Manuscript profile

        To face uncertainty in the real world, the two value logic has gradually replaced the fuzzy logic. In some real world problems, accurate determination of membership value is difficult and decision- making is associated with uncertainty and hesitation. This new perspective manages the uncertainty caused by hesitation. Generalized trapezoidal hesitant fuzzy numbers (GTHFN), whose membership degree is expressed by several trapezoidal fuzzy number, is best suited to solve the decision-making problem in real life than real numbers. In this paper, we refer to a new concept called 'generalized trapezoidal hesitant fuzzy numbers' and its combination with data envelopment analysis. Using this information, we consider the deviation and the score values as input and output of the data envelopment analysis model in two stages respectively; then we used the result to construct a paired comparison matrix and eventually we prioritize the receivers decision making units. To use some concepts in the proposed decision making method, we first present some definitions of concepts such as the score and deviation functions from the generalized trapezoidal hesitant fuzzy numbers. Finally, a numerical example is presented for the proposed method to confirm its applicability, and the ranking result is compared with the methods of AP, TOPSIS with GTHF number and the weighted geometric operator in [7].

        In Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), it is assumed that the role of each factor is known asinput or output. However, in some cases, there are shared factors that their input versusoutput status is not clearly known. These are flexible measures. In such cases, determiningwhether a factor is input or output is ambiguous. Therefore, using fuzzy concept seems to benecessary.In this paper, a two phase procedure is proposed to fuzzy classification of flexible measures.In the first phase, applying the existing classification methods, an orientation of flexiblemeasures to aid in the definition of inputs and outputs is achieved. Through defining amembership function in second phase, the input versus output status of a factor is expressedby fuzzy notion. By the proposed method, the efficiency of a decision mating unit is defendedby a membership degree. We illustrate the proposed model in a practical problem setting. Manuscript profile

        In this paper , the effect of Product Market Competition on Agency Cost isinvestigated. In this regard, the effect of size is controlled. For measuring the ProductMarket Competition, the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index of sales and entry barriers is used.For measuring agency cost ,two criterion is used. The first criterion is the interaction ofthe firm’s growth prospects and its free cash flows. We used Tobin’s Q as a proxy for thefirm’s growth prospects. The other criterion is the assets turnover ratio.To test thehypotheses and data,multiple linear regression was used. findings of investigating 62firms in the 2003 to 2011 show that as the firm competition power increases and on theother hand the degree of the product market competition decreases, the agency cost wouldsignificantly increase. Moreover, the strength of the research results using annual datawere also exmined. Manuscript profile

Nonetheless, because of stockholders' inability to processing the information related to accruals and net operating assets, they overestimate the future persistence of accruals and net operating assets (and finally, accounting earnings) and cause to mispricing and irrational pricing of shares in stock market Manuscript profile

        In economic theory, there is no more important proposition than that, under competition, the rate of return on investment tends toward equality in all industries’. Although this notion is applicable to total profitability measures such as return on assets (ROA), there is good reason to believe that various components of ROA  identified by Dupont analysis will not revert to economy-wide levels, Industries have unique operating structures that Dupont analysis decomposes return on investment such as ROA into two multiplicative components, Profit margin (PM) and Asset turnover (ATO). This analysis is useful because each component measures different aspects of a firm’s operation. Advocate of this type of analysis claim that the components of ROA should provide additional insight into the business and operations of the firm and assist in forecasting. In this paper I examined whether Industry part of profit margin, Asset turnover and return on assets and Industry adjusted values of these variables (called abnormal) can predict future values (changes) of these variables , I found that decomposing each of these components into an abnormal and Industry component is useful for predicting also I found that profit margin and Asset turnover has a negative correlation with each other and the same is true with, their abnormal, (Industry-adjusted). In this paper pooled regression is used in predicting ROA, PM, and ATO of Industries and their Industry-adjusted values. Result showed that the regression equation is informative and significant. and provides enough information for decision making.   Manuscript profile

        The purpose of this study is to test the transmission of price fluctuations of physical assets to the returns of selected industries including the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, construction and basic metals industries. For this purpose, the data of selected industries return index, dollar rate, Bahar Azadi coin price (representative of gold market), Iranian crude oil price and housing price from mid-December 2008 to March 2019 were prepared with daily frequency and using conditional heterogeneity variance method and state space approach and Kalman filter, conditional standard deviation of returns is considered as a measure of fluctuations. Then, using the ARDL method, how the fluctuations in the price of physical assets are transmitted to the index of returns of selected industries is described. The results show that the chemical industry from the fluctuations of the foreign exchange market, housing and gold, the pharmaceutical industry from the fluctuations of the oil, foreign exchange and housing markets, the construction materials industry from the fluctuations of the foreign exchange market, the food industry from the fluctuations of the oil market and the basic metals industry from the market fluctuations gold has a contagious linear system that provides evidence of information inefficiency in the Tehran Stock Exchange industry.

In doing so, the technique has employed some potential and actual indicators of financial liberalization to measure the impact on economic growth of financial liberalization, for example, the flow of foreign direct investment has been used as a proxy for actual financial liberalization index. As such the paper has investigated the casual relation between economic growth and financial development on one hand and that of financial development and financial liberalization on the other hand. The result indicate that in the former case one way relation exist i.e. economic growth exert its impact on financial development but in the latter case no casual relationship has not been noticed.

        The concept of marketing means that the performance of each business unit starts with recognizing its customers and their needs. Every organization is responsible for not only producing and selling products and services, but also satisfying its customers; thus observing its customers’ needs and wants empower the organization t in its indented markets. In accordance to this statement, many researchers have tried their best to introduce some methods and models to make this concept more applicable. Regarding the fact that the success of many organizations depends on creating a substantive competitive privilege and the key to make such a privilege is offering superior value for costumers; concentration on customers, competitors and the other influencing factors as a determinant culture in the organization or in the form of solitary complex consisting of purposeful activities toward market under some concepts such as market-orientation and customization in practice have been used. The current research has studied the relationship between Extended Market Orientation and business performance. Therefore, the subjects of this research project were the stock exchange companies which produced consuming products and their economic and financial data of 2004 to 2008 were available. The main variables of this research project were: Extended Market Orientation (EMO), the criteria of business financial performance (Rate of Return Assets (ROA)) and the criteria of business economic performance (Refined Economic Value Added (REVA)). In this research project, statistical inference, parametric and nonparametric statistical methods, Spearman and Kendall correlation test have been used. In this research project, the data which were required for determining the business performance criteria have been extracted from financial accounts of the organizations and the required data to evaluate the extent of market orientation in the mentioned companies have been collected by use of s standardized questionnaire used in international researches. In order to assess the market orientation, the questionnaire besides a letter from the university has been sent to each company and after repeated follow-up, 23 questionnaires were returned. After collecting the required data and using them to analyze the hypotheses, the results showed there is a significance relationship between extended market-orientation and rate of return assets while extended market orientation has no correlation with adjusted value economic added.

For this purpose, a sample including 86 companies listed atTehran's stock exchange during the 2006 and 2010 has been studied. By doing hierarchicalcluster analysis, the companies were categorized into two clusters of cost leadership andproduct differentiation. In order to analyze and examine the relationship between the variablesin our study, the approaches of balanced panel data was used. The results show that there's asignificant relationship between and the assets' age operational performance of the companies.These findings underline the influence of the variables of the assets' age and businessstrategies on the relationship between growth of the assets and the performance of thecompanies. These results indicate that the impact of factors on the growth of assets in thecompanies with older assets is more intensive. From the other hand, the findings show that theimpact of the growth of the assets in the companies following the product differentiationapproach is negative. Since the main key to success in investments is to determine eachcompany’s particular competitive advantage and the stability thereof; hence, the empiricalresults of these strategic concepts could provide a useful mechanism for entrepreneurs inorder to gain a better future performance.

        Current paper examines the effect of retrospective source of finance on the capital budgeting decisions and investigates the possibility of costly decision errors in the case of using mental accounting by managers. 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

        This thesis surveys the possibility of prospecting future profits by using the financial ratios combination of accepted companies in Tehran’s stock exchange. Because of this reason the eight financial ratios as fallows; Growth in Sales (GSALES), Growth in Net Operating Assets (GNOA), Return on Net Operating Assets (RNOA), Operating Assets Turnover (ATO), Operating  Liabilities Leverage(OLLEV), Profit Margin (PM), Advertising costs intensity (ADV) and Research and Development costs intensity (RD) were selected as independent variables and on the other hand the variable of Logarithm Net Operating Assets (LOGNOA) was considered as a control variable. So the eight spillover hypotheses were suggested to prove that there is a meaningful relation between the operating profit and each of these mentioned ratios. The research was being surveyed within a decade from the years 1377 to 1386.The select sample contained 55 companies which were elected from among accepted ones in Tehran’s stock exchange. The research scheme contains fitting of Regression model within the years 1377 to 1385, forecasting the operating profit in 1386 and lastly surveying accuracy of forecasting by comparing actual estimated values through the pair sampling test. the used statistical method in this research was the analysis of solidarity through Regression by using PLS technique (the least squares combined), which was done in two processes; the single variable analysis and the multiple Regression. All tests were done by means of the SPSS (15th writing) and the EVIEWS (4th writing) softwares. According to the obtained results from the research hypotheses’ test, it was confirmed that there is a meaningful relation between the logarithm net operating assets (control variable), sales growth, return on net operating assets, operating assets turnover, research and development costs intensity and operating profit. Also according to the results of the multiple regression and the step by step method, the main hypothesis of this research was confirmed which means that it is absolutely possible to prospect the future profits by using the financial ratios combination of productive companies that are accepted in Tehran’s stock exchange.

        Introduction: One of the most important missions of the facilitation is to identify the capacities and assets of the neighborhood and their flourishing in the direction of local community-based development and endogenous development. Social development is about putting human beings at the center of development theory. The social development approach emphasizes capacities and therefore empowerment is very important in it. In the transformation of planning approaches from the point of view of the need for base-based assets, attention has been paid to the capacities of the local community in order to empower the community. Method: This research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of method. To analyze the data and information, a combined method (quantitative and qualitative) appropriate to the subject has been used. Also, 461 questionnaires were distributed by simple random method and Cronbach's alpha value for the reliability test of the questionnaire was 0.874, which means that our scale has high validity and reliability. Questionnaire analysis was also performed using statistical methods in SPSS software. Findings: To focus on the assets of the Jafarabad neighborhood, one must first identify the assets. Accordingly, the key assets of the local community include influential people, local associations and clubs (CBOs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), support-charitable centers, government agencies, physical assets (educational, sports facilities). And recreation, health and social services and other similar items (social relations, cultural assets, economic and financial assets, etc.) Accordingly, each neighborhood and local community has the conditions, capacities and assets that Relying on them, we can take steps to solve the problems of the neighborhood and the development of the local community.The research findings indicate the low capital and assets of Jafarabad neighborhood in all dimensions. Conclusion: To achieve local community-based development, identify and recognize the potentials and capacities of the neighborhood, the flourishing of local assets is a requirement. Also, by recognizing all the assets and capacities of the neighborhood and their prosperity, local community-based development can be achieved. They must be discovered and given wings and empowered to witness the flight of the neighborhood towards the ideals and goals of urban development. Unfortunately, in Jafarabad neighborhood, urban capacities and capitals have not been discovered and flourished, and this has caused the neighborhood to lag behind in development.   Manuscript profile

        Background and Aim: The scarcity of data poses a significant challenge for drought studies. Alternative datasets are created to supplement existing data sources. Despite the inherent uncertainties associated with alternative datasets, the gridded datasets provide long-term, spatially-continuous weather data, making them suitable for drought assessment under climate changes. Several studies have been conducted to characterize dry spells across Iran using both point datasets and gridded products. However, most of these studies have focused primarily on identifying errors in absolute values of drought indices and drought detection.Method: In the present study, we evaluated the performance of three gridded datasets in characterizing droughts across different climatic conditions in Iran. The datasets under consideration were the fifth generation of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ERA5), Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS), and Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks-Climate Data Record (PERSIANN-CDR). The Standardized Precipitation Index in 3-, 6-, and 12-month scales (i.e., SPI3, SPI6, and SPI12) was applied. The precipitation observations were obtained from the Iran Meteorological Organization (IRIMO) for 35 sites spanning the period from 1988 to 2017. The با توجهstudy sites covered a range of climatic conditions, including hyper-arid, arid, semi-arid, and humid/semi-humid regions. To analyze the long-term trend in precipitation, two statistical methods, namely, the Sen’s slope estimator (SSE) and the Mann-Kendall non-parametric test (MKZ) were employed.Results: Results revealed that the gridded datasets performed poorly in detecting dry months and estimating SPI values in humid/semi-humid regions. However, ERA5 estimated SPI3, SPI6, and SPI12 with sufficient accuracy in more than the two-third of arid and semi-arid areas. Moreover, ERA5 detected dry months accurately based on SPI12 in the majority of arid and semi-arid cases. Specifically, ERA5 accurately detected severe and long-lasting dry events that occurred in drylands during the periods of 1998-2001 and 2007-2009. These intense dry epochs detected by ERA5 have had significant negative impacts on the agricultural sectors in the Middle East, highlighting the critical need for accurate drought monitoring and management. However, CHIRPS and PERSIANN-CDR performed poorly in estimating SPI and detecting dry months in arid and semi-arid regions. Furthermore, ERA5 provided reliable estimates of the significance and direction of the slope of SPI3, SPI6, and SPI12 in more than half of arid and semi-arid regions, while CHIRPS and PERSIANN-CDR yielded inaccurate estimates in most areas. However, in some cases where SPI values and drought months were not accurately modeled, the significance and direction of slopes were estimated accurately. These findings suggest that while inaccurate SPI estimates from gridded datasets may indicate limitations in their skill to characterize drought; they do not necessarily imply their unsuitability for trend analysis and climate change assessments.Conclusion: The results suggest that ERA5 outperformed the other alternate datasets evaluated in terms of estimating SPI values, detecting drought events, and estimating the significance and slope of SPI in drylands. As such, ERA5 precipitation products may be suitable for drought characterization and monitoring under climate change in drought-prone arid and semi-arid regions of Iran. Manuscript profile

Then, in order to explain the identified components and themes, in a small part, Intuitive Fuzzy Sets (IFSs) was used to determine the most effective dimension of green transformational leadership based on the most important theme of sustainable human resource competence. In this study, the target population consisted of two sections: qualitative and quantitative. In the qualitative section, with the help of 15 experts and experts in the field of human resource management at the university level, an attempt was made to identify research components, components and propositions in the form of scores. In the quantitative sector, 21 middle managers of the oil company in Golestan province participated to evaluate the quantitative sector analyzes. Findings: The results showed that, despite the participatory competencies of human resources, the most important dimension of green transformational leadership is the effectiveness of opportunity. Discussion and Conclusion: In fact, the result of this study reflects the fact that the participatory competence of human resources strengthens the level of interoperability and communication within the organization in the field of decision-making on environmental issues and problems and it strengthens the dimension of effective opportunity in transformational green leadership to create more ideas and support for human resource innovations in the field of green operations in the oil company.

        Background and Objective: One of the important issues in the tax administration is the lack of acceptable performance and defined goals for notification policies. The purpose of this research is Assessing of Green Tax Sustainability Based on Obstacles to Implementing the Tax Administration's Notification Policy. Material and Methodology: This research is developmental in terms of methodology and is combined in terms of data collection type. In this study, in the qualitative part, based on meta-analysis processes, an attempt was made to first identify researches related to the two concepts of barriers to the Implementing the Tax Administration's Notification Policy and the consequences of green tax sustainability, and then to determine the components and themes of the research based on critical evaluation scale. Also in the qualitative part, Delphi analysis was used to determine the extent of theoretical consensus. In a Quantitative part, were used intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs). Findings: The results showed that structural barrier is considered as the most effective theme of barriers to the implementation of notification policies which can interfere with the sustainability of the consequences of green tax sustainability. Discussion and Conclusion: The result shows that the obstacles to the implementation of the notification policies of the Tax Administration neutralize environmental pollution as the most important consequence of green tax sustainability, and this issue makes the consequences of green tax sustainability practically not have the necessary impact on the economy.

        One of the features of a financial market, the stock market in particular, is its affectability from other financial and non-financial markets. regarding the importance of this issue, the present study aimed at investigating the dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) between the returns on the domestic and foreign assets in monthly data (oil, industry, exchange and base metals including total, copper, steel) and returns on the stock price index in Iran during March 2001 to April 2017 using the DCC-FIAPARCH approach. The obtained results indicated a statistically significant and positive DCC coefficient difference between the metals, industrial products, and copper returns with the stocks returns. Consequently, it is not possible to put each of these assets with the stocks in an identical situation (purchase or sale), but instead they should be always placed in opposite situations for the purpose of risk control. However, with regard to other assets, the DCC was not significant; accordingly, the assets can be placed in the investment portfolio together with the stocks although the presence of such assets in the given portfolio did not help to reduce the portfolio risk.

        Enterprise risk management can identify, measure, control, and monitor risk levels. The issue of enterprise risk management has been of interest to companies in recent years. The purpose of this study is to determine the implementation of enterprise risk management programs and then to examine the factors affecting the management of organizational risk 118 companies during the years 1388 to 1398. Factors such as firm size, growth opportunity, return on assets, financial leverage and dividends were also used as factors influencing the implementation of enterprise risk management. The test results of the hypotheses showed that the size of the company with 0.2853 and growth opportunity with 0.2349 multiplaiers is meaningful and positive. Also, financial leverage with -0.03935 and dividend with -0.01095 don’t have significance. In other words, at the 95% confidence level, firm size, growth opportunity, return on assets have an impact on enterprise risk management and financial leverage, dividend variables have no effect on enterprise risk management in companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange. In other words, enterprise risk management can improve the operational performance and increase the value of the company, and companies that are exposed to high risk due to environmental uncertainty can prevent and control the adverse effects of risk Manuscript profile

        In public companies, shareholders (employers) delegate decision-making power to their directors (ie, control, albeit to varying degrees, of ownership of this separation of interests). Managers are working in the best interests of the owners, as has been suggested by Mali's theory. In public corporations, ownership structures can be fragmented (large number of small shareholders) or concentrated (small number of major shareholders). When ownership is in the hands of the overwhelming agents, the centralized control system and when the ownership is distributed, the control system will be decentralized. Since ownership concentration is seen as an important determinant of corporate governance, it seems that the identity of the controlling owners has a fundamental role to play in ownership. In this paper, the effect of dividend policy and ownership concentration on the financial performance and capital structure of the banks listed in Tehran Stock Exchange is investigated using static panel estimators. The estimation of the regression model is done in 3 separate models. The research period is between 2012 and 2017 in 17 selected banks of the country. Manuscript profile

        In this research, return and risk tradeoff examined using standard form of Capital Assets Pricing Model (CAPM) in Tehran Securities Exchange (TSE). Using a methodology related to the field of Ex post facto studies in financial researches, OLS and Quantile regression model was used for test of CAPM. Results of running (linear and Quantile) two stage regression show that beta as systematic risk proxy cannot explain excess returns difference. Results show also unique risk can explain excess returns, although relation of unique risk and excess return is variant in different quartile of returns. As a conclusion, it can be stated that at least using of TSE Index as proxy of market portfolio, CAPM model does not explain stock prices. Manuscript profile

        This research attempts to investigate the relationship of investment opportunities and earnings management with respect to ownership concentration. Earnings management is measured by using absolute abnormal accruals proxy through Ball and Shivakumar model (2006-2008). Investment opportunities calculated as an independent variable through geometric growth, market-to-book asset ratio and factor analysis of these two indicators. Control rights and deviation between cash flow rights and control rights was considered as a measure for ownership concentration. Results indicate there is not any significant relationship exists between assets geometric growth and earnings management. Although, there is a significant relationship exists between high market-to-book ratio and factor analysis of these two indicators and earnings management. Furthermore, ownership concentration has not a significant effect on earnings management and investment opportunities and controlling shareholders do not use their monitoring role and their power to protect shareholders.

        The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between intangible assets and the financial performance of the companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. Therefore, the present study is a practical and quasi-experimental research. Totally 134 companies for the 12-year period (1380 to 1391) were classified and examined in four categories using available databases. Intangible assets also was divided into two categories; registered and unregistered intangible assets.  We used a few proxies for calculation of intangible assets. The results of the partial correlation coefficients and hierarchical regression test with regard to the control variables showed that there is a significant relationship between intangible assets and financial performance of the companies. In some cases, there is a positive and in others a negative sign relationship. The intensity of this relationship for unregistered intangible assets is stronger that registered intangible assets. The most significant positive correlation is between ROA and Tobin-Q, and then between markets over book value and net income respectively. Also, the net income measure was strongly associated with intangible assets among the other measures. Manuscript profile

        An impressive growth has recently been witnessed in the Islamic Financial System. Nowadays, not only is Islamic Finance emphasized by the Islamic countries but the approach has also been adopted in other countries. The present research was conducted to identify and rate financing criteria through assets securitization in Bank Keshavarzi. The research, from the objective point of view, is a functional one and, from subject and research questions points of view, is a descriptive-survey type. The data collection tools, including questionnaires, are based on paired comparisons, through which the data were rated according to an hourly scale. The sample population, selected using snowball sampling method, consists of financial experts who identified 26 indices with Delphi technique. The rating was conducted using Analytical Hierarchy Technique. The results demonstrate that, based on experts' feedback, in the study of paired comparison matrix of assets securitization elements, selection of Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) by the bank; regarding the assets to be securitized, government claims; in securitization process, the rate determination; in review of securities offering impacts on the financial structure of the originator, assets productivity; and to review securitization consequences for promotion of financial and banking health indices,  the liquidity risks are prioritized. Moreover, with regards to inconsistency rate, there is complete consistency among the paired comparisons of the models.  Manuscript profile

        Undoubtedly Waqf assets like any other property involve passage of time so they have expiration dates. The benefit and expediency of waqf assets depend on the sustenance of those properties so if their life span ends up by any cause, it is natural that their benefits also expire. It seems that by changing the usage of waqf assets, those properties can be sustained. The presented study is conducted with the purpose of "finding some strategies to facilitate the sale and conversion of waqf assets and increasing permission cases of changing their usage" and aims to review the arguments for and against this subject, apply previously conducted research by contemporary jurists and lawyers, and challenge the condition of permanence of endowment.

        Introduction: In the area of big data, the dimension of data in many fields are increasing dramatically. To deal with the high dimensions of training data, online feature selection algorithms are considered as very important issue in data mining. Recently, online feature selection methods have attracted a lot of attention from researchers. These algorithms deal with the process of selecting important and efficient features and removing redundant features without any pre-knowledge of the set of features. Despite all the progress in this field, there are still many challenges related to these algorithms. Among these challenges, we can mention scalability, minimum size of selected features, sufficient accuracy and execution time. On the other hand, in many real-world applications, features are entered into the dataset in groups and sequentially. Although many online feature selection algorithms have been presented so far, but none of them have been able to find trade of between these criteria. Method: In this paper, we propose a group online feature selection method with feature stream using two new measures of redundancy and relevancy using mutual information theory. Mutual information can compute linear and non-linear dependency between the variables. With the proposed method, we try to create a better tradeoff between all the challenges. Results: In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed online group feature selection method, a number of experiments have been conducted on six large multi-label training data sets named ALLAML, colon, SMK-CAN-187, credit-g, sonar and breast-cancer in different applications and 3 online group feature selection algorithms named FNE_OGSFS، Group-SAOLA and OGSFS which are presented recently. Also, 3 evaluation criteria including average accuracy using KNN (k - nearest neighborhood (, SVM (Support Vector Machine) and NB (Naïve Bayesian) classifiers, number of selected features and executing time were used as criteria for comparing the proposed method. According to the obtained results, the proposed algorithm has obtained better results in almost of cases compared to other algorithms which it shows the efficiency of the proposed method. Discussion: In this paper, we will show that proposed online group feature selection method will achieve better performance by considering label group dependency between the new arrival features.

        So far, distress prediction models have been based on balanced, such sampling is not consistent with the reality of the statistical community of companies. If the data are balanced, the bias in sample selection may lead to an underestimation of typeI error and an overestimation of the typeII error of models. Although imbalanced data-based models are compatible with reality, they have a higher typeI error compared to balanced data-based models. The cost of typeI error is more important to Beneficiaries than the cost of typeII error. In this study, for reducing typeI error of imbalanced data-based models, random and clustering-based undersampling were used. Tested data included 760 companies since 2007-2007 with 4 different degrees and the results of the H1 to H3 test represented them. In all cases of the typeI error, typeII error of balanced data-based models were lower and more, respectively, compared to imbalanced data-based models; also, in most cases, the geometric mean of balanced data-based models was higher compared to imbalanced data-based models, respectively. The results of testing H4 to H6 show that in most cases, typeI error, typeII error and the geometric mean criterion of models based on modified imbalanced data were less, more, and more, respectiively compared to the models based on imbalanced data, in other words, applying Undersampling methods on imbalanced training data led to a decrease in typeI error and an increase in typeII error and geometric mean criteria. As a result using models based on modified imbalanced data is suggested to Beneficiaries Manuscript profile

        In today’s competitive environment in manufacturing and services process, the organizations are confronted with the need to have indicators and patterns for assessing the performance. The balanced scorecard is a successful instrument in implementing the strategic plans of the organization. The present paper aims to evaluate the performance and rank the branches of Tejarat bank in Yazd province based on their efficiency. The balanced scorecard is an appropriate device for designing and measuring the performance in terms of four perspectives including financial, customer, internal process and growth and innovation. This study also intends to use a combining model of BSC and fuzzy data envelopment analysis to evaluate the performance of the branches. This is a descriptive study using field study along with the library, observation and sometimes interview to gather the required information. The findings reveal that among the twenty-six examined branches, 11 branches are efficient. Additionally, the cross efficiency ranking has been used to rank the branches. Finally, the sensitivity analyses demonstrate that ATM has the highest impact on the efficiency of the units followed by the position and the number of employees. On the other hand, the total bank deposits have the least impact on the efficiency of the banks. Manuscript profile

         The premise of lover and lover dominance over each other is the result of a sociological approach of theorists such as George Lukach, Pierre Bourdieu and Theodore Adorno in the category of love. In this paper, through reading the relevant sociological elements with love, we can address the status of domination, its causes and consequences in the love of Leily u Majnun Neziganjoy. The research method is descriptive-analytical, the research revealed that love was carried out by the conflict of dokodak otherness until adolescence and youth, in a geographical way that the objects, minds, habits and social base dominated the behavioral hierarchy of lovers, not their will. Unity of pluralism and domination has permeated the thinking of lovers and social solidarity with Leily and Majnun has not been able to cope with the system of tarigi. The sociology of their behavior showed that the male dominance, as an addition and variable, has occasionally dominated Leily, but the force of mistress has often disturbed the balance of domination in Lily's favor, and ultimately the objects and minds of society have entered another active and class variable, ibn Salam, into the story so that failed love, which is desired by the minds of the Stonak society and more influential in the space of the story.

        AbstractInfrastructure is defined as one of the basic foundations in today's societies, so that the life of human societies and environmental satisfaction depends to some extent on the safe and reliable operation of infrastructure. At the same time, securing and protecting all assets and infrastructure in the right conditions and the subject of influential factors for governments or sector employers in terms of resources and facilities, is challenging. . Therefore, important infrastructures and assets should be identified, classified and classified based on indicators and functions. The main purpose of this research is to identify and enumerate the indicators of the vitality of infrastructure and assets. This research has done a content analysis in order to determine the criticality of infrastructure by a comprehensive study and qualitative research method of foundation data derived from Strauss and Corbin (1998) theory. Data were collected through interviews, library studies and documentation by surveying existing texts and sources. The sample size for interviews with experts in the use of theoretical saturation was finalized and the strategic theory of the foundation including open, personality and selective coding and the model for determining this theory for model development are presented. The findings turned into the identification of causal, contextual, intervening conditions, strategies and consequences, and the paradigm model of index coding as indicators of the criticality of infrastructure. The results of studies and studies have led to the identification of 26 indicators in the form of 5 main groups. Manuscript profile

        Positive development during adolescence has lifelong consequences; developmental assets frameworks contribute to the well-being of newcomers, including avoiding high-risk behaviors and engaging in positive or thriving behaviors. One of the main concerns of educational systems is trying to find ways to improve students' academic performance. The statistical population of the research was all ninth grade students of Qazvin province. Various psychological factors can affect academic performance. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of internal and external developmental assets in predicting the academic performance of ninth grade students in work and technology and social studies. With the cluster sampling strategy, the questionnaires were provided to the students in a Shad environment. Regression analysis was used to determine the contribution of independent variables in predicting the dependent variable. The results of the present study indicate that the correlation (relationship) between the variable of developmental assets and its subscales and students 'performance in work and technology and social studies is significant, which with increasing students' developmental assets score, their academic performance also improves.

        The aim of this study is measuring of organizational justice based on fuzzy expert system. Accordingly, a model is designed based on fuzzy sets theory. The introduced model has five stages. In the first stage, input and output variables of model are characterized by available theories. Inputs are as follows: distributive justice, procedural justice and interactional justice. The output is the score of organizational justice.  In the second stage, the input and output are converted into fuzzy numbers after classification. Inference rules are explained in the third stage.  In the fourth stage, defuzzification is performed, and in the fifth stage, the devised system is tested. The test result shows that the presented model is of high validity. Ultimately, by using the designed model, the score of organizational justice for Small Food Industrials of East Azerbaijan was calculated. The statistical population consists of all staffs and middle managers in these organizations. Using Cochran formula, the sample size is260 employees and 106 middle managers. A questionnaire was devised, and its validity and reliability were confirmed. The result indicates that, the score of organizational justice in Small Food Industrials with the membership rank of 0.816 is at an average level and with the membership rank of 0.184 is low.

        Financing is one of the most important issues in the resistive economy. There are a variety of financing options available in Iran, including the capital market, but given the risk aversion of investors to enter this market, Islamic financial instruments such as securities emerged and were highly sought after. Islamic financial instruments known as Sukuk bonds have been widely accepted. Sukuk Al Ijara are the most applicable Sukuk in our country. One of the unprecedented topics in this field is the study of executable options as a means of terminating the securities. In this study, at first the basic legal and jurisprudential foundations of options such as rule of prohibition of detriment, interpretative law, the rule of will power, intention and consent of contract's parties, expediency, protective theory were described. Then, Enforceable options in Sukuk Al Ijara bonds as predictive and offsetting measures of contracts by mentioning examples of each option was examined. The results of this study indicates that it is possible to execute  following options  such as defect, deceit, lesion, conditions, unfulfilled conditions, inspection, sales unfulfilled in part, impossibility of delivery and  insolvency in relations of the contract's parties.

        One of the key factors that lead organizations and high education centers to deficieney is that their processes and obtained results are not evaluted well. In the case that high education centers realize their positions well and become aware of their weaknesses, they will no doubt attempt to eliminate those deficiencies. The purpose of this research, whose implementation scope is one of the technical-engineering complexes, is to present a method for the evalution of the performance of management in engineer training centers based on the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) excellence model. Since the existing decision – making environment of high education centers, like many other organizations, is generally fuzzy and vague, for a further adjustment of the mentioned method with the existing situations of high education centers the proposed model is designed in fuzzy environments so that we would be able to evaluate the management performance of high engineering education centers in a more accurate way.  Manuscript profile

        The increase in complexification of business competition, especially in pharmaceutical knowledge-based industries and organizations, has highlighted the role of invisible capital. In fact, the growth in the intensity of competition is accompanied by a parallel increase in the significance of invisible assets and a drastic reduction in the importance of physical capital. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of social, human and organizational assets on knowledge productivity in Iranian drug companies. The research population consisted of the nation-wide pharmaceutical industry and the research sample comprised sub-holding Drug Supply Companies (TPICO). The research data were collected using Human Capital Questionnaire (Sabramanyam & Yandt, 2005), Organizational Capital Questionnaire (Davenport & Prusak, 1998), Social Capital Questionnaire (Burt, 1992) and Knowledge Productivity Questionnaire (Gupta & Govindarajan, 2000). The findings verified the significant and positive impact of the three dimensions of invisible assets on the knowledge productivity in the pharmaceutical companies in Iran. Manuscript profile

        The SERVQUAL method is one of the most applied methods for assessment of service quality which have a hierarchical structure including a few main dimensions and a few items, which analyzes the distance between expectations and perceptions of received services for each of the items. On the other hand, the qualities of services are mental and concrete concepts which their indexes are determined in linguistic vocabulary with ambiguity. Therefore, in this paper a joint SERVQUAL and hierarchical TOPSIS method was assessed, and to deal with ambiguity of the data, the concepts of type-2 fuzzy sets were used. The proposed method for assessment the quality of services, the outline of urban transportation in Sharekurd including, bus, tour taxi and public taxi were used. The results showed that, altogether tour taxi has the highest level of service quality, and public taxi and bus were next respectively. Manuscript profile

        Learning, a universal process that all individuals experience, is a fundamental component of human cognition. It combines cognitive, emotional and environmental influences for acquiring or enhancing ones knowledge and skills. Volumes of research have been written about learning and many theories have been developed for the description of its mechanisms. The goal was to understand objectively how people learn and then develop teaching approaches accordingly. In this paper soft sets, a generalization of fuzzy sets introduced in 1999 by D. Molodstov as a new mathematical tool for dealing with the uncertainty in a parametric manner, are used for assessing student learning skills with the help of the Blooms taxonomy. Blooms taxonomy has been applied and is still applied by generations of teachers as a teaching tool to help balance assessment by ensuring that all orders of thinking are exercised in student learning. The innovative assessment method introduced in this paper is very useful when the assessment has qualitative rather than quantitative characteristics. A classroom application is also presented illustrating its applicability under real conditions. Manuscript profile

        This article introduces a productive algebraic approach to identifying positive solutions for a system of fully fuzzy polynomial equations (FFPEs). To achieve this, the FFPEs system is transformed into a comparable system of crisp polynomial equations. The Wu's algorithm is then employed to solve the set of crisp polynomial equations as the solution method. This algorithm results in the solution of characteristic sets that are readily solvable. A key benefit of the proposed method is that all the solutions are obtained simultaneously. The article concludes by presenting some practical examples to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method. Manuscript profile

        AbstractPharmaceutical industry has a main share in capital market and a considerable role in stock market transactions through the collection of community micro-savings. Hence, the cruicial aim of this paper is to investigate the effects of nominal exchange rate volatility and entry of real shareholders on the return on assets (ROA) in the 32 pharmaceutical materials and products of Tehran stock exchange as a import oriented companies during the period of 2011-2019. For achieving this, by using of Panel GARCH method, the exchange rate volatility has been estimated and then, the impacts of this variabble with other explanatory variabbles such as entry of real shareholders, profit margin, capital and interest rate to the operational profit, have been examined on return on assets in these companies. The empirical results of model estimation by GMM estimator revealed that the exchange rate volatility has negative and entry of real shareholders has positive and significant effect on the return on assets. Moreover, the auxiliary variables like profit margin, capital and interest rate have positive, positive and negative effects on the return on assets. By results of this study, we can suggest that the financial policy makers with decreasing of exchange rate volatility through control of domestic prices and capital market stabilization policies, motivate real shareholders to enter the capital market and increase the production and profitability of pharmaceutical companies.

        The aim of the present study is to rank the leather manufacturing units from the perspective of the entrepreneurship features of the organization's staffs. Accordingly, the present article presents a model based on the theory of the fuzzy sets to determine the entrepreneurship score in the organization from the perspective of the entrepreneurship features of the staffs. This model has five stages. In the first stage, the input and output variables of the model are obtained based on the existing theories. The model inputs consist of creativity, innovation, risk-taking, responsibility and seeking success. In the second stage, inputs and outputs are converted to fuzzy numbers after partitioning. In the third stage, the inference rules, which are in the form of if-and-therefore rules, are edited based on the literature of the topic and comments of the experts. In the fourth stage, defuzzification is done, and in the fifth stage, the designed model is tested. The test results show that the presented model has a high validity. Finally, the score of organizational entrepreneurship for the leather manufacturing units is calculated using the designed model. The sample of the present research is 11 leather manufacturing units in the East Azarbaijan province which has 20 or more employees. Due to the limited number of the population, the total population has been surveyed. In order to collect data, a reliable and valid questionnaire was used. The results indicate that Aida, Shahgoli and Markazi Leather companies are ranked first through third, respectively from the perspective of entrepreneurship scores of 0.621, 0.626, and 0.604.

        Renovation and remodeling of worn-out textures in metropolises is a policy that has become a major priority or one of the most important metropolitan municipal programs. The issuance of municipal bonds to finance the renovation and refurbishment of wornout textiles has been declining first due to the failure of some municipalities to repay debt that led to default, and secondly due to the complex administrative structure surrounding the issuance process, state budget alignment, approval process by city council, municipality, municipal agencies, ministry of interior, central bank, council of economy, parliament, etc., so we face financial instruments that has not been fully successful in recent years. On the other hand, the lack of a suitable mechanism for designing new financial instruments that can reduce the complex administrative bureaucracies and provide reliable resources to finance these projects is a necessity that is reviewed in this article. In the present article, while presenting the general patterns of financing urban renewal textures, a brief description is provided for the depository and lending system and then a review of the process of establishing a municipal investment fund, and finally, a model of securitization as a design mechanism for financing improvement are made with regard to legal and tax restrictions.

        Stock Liquidity risk can be thought as one of the factors affecting the investors expected return. Clarifying a measure according to the specifics of the company to measure the stock liquidity could help the investors to make better decisions. In this study, we examine the relationship between assets liquidity and stock liquidity in hole of druggist firms listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during the years 1387 and 1388. We use the turnover ratio. The results show that there is a significant relationship between the assets liquidity and stock liquidity. This relationship depends on market expectations regarding the deployment of the firm's liquid assets. Thus our hypothesis links stock liquidity to managerial actions that change the liquidity of the firm's assets, such as investment financing, and payout. Consistent with my prediction, I find that after controlling for firm fixed effects, increase in asset liquidity increases stock liquidity, too.The relation is stronger when the manager is less likely to convert liquid assets into illiquid assets such as for low market to book, during economic recessions, and when expected payout is high.

         The purpose of this study was to investigate the Antecedents and consequences of developmental assets based on structural equation modeling. For this purpose, 511 third-year students from Hamedan high schools (256 males and 255 females) were selected by multistage random cluster sampling. The participants completed the Perceived Social Support Scale) Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet & Farley, 1988), The Developmental Assets Profile (Search Institute, 2005) and Ryff’s Psychological Well-being Scale (1989). Data were analyzed using structural equation modelling. The hypothesized model showed good fit in research population. The results showed that the mediating role of developmental assets in the relationship of perceived social support and psychological well-being is significant and positive, and the proposed model explains 57 percent of the variance of psychological well-being among students. Based on the findings of this study, it was found that the effect of perceived social support on psychological well-being is more indirect than direct, and is through developmental assets. Consequently, with the increase of perceived social support, it is possible to improve the amount of developmental assets and psychological well-being of students. Manuscript profile

        Crypto assets are one of the new phenomena of the present age, which, considering its history of less than a decade, has found a significant place in financial exchanges. This phenomenon, like all human evolutions, has positive and negative features, which only paying attention to its functional appeal and neglecting some destructive features can cause irreparable damage. Considering the fact that the entry of banks into this field is inevitable, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has taken steps to introduce precautionary recommendations and supervisory measures in order to protect the banking system and global financial stability. In response to the question of what requirements the Basel Committee has imposed on states in relation to crypto assets, this paper has undertaken to review the actions and documents of the committee in a descriptive-analytical way. What emerges from the analysis of the committee's documents is that the committee has clarified the precautionary standards for a certain group of crypto assets that have stable processes based on links with traditional assets, and the rest of the crypto assets have been left out of the scope of attention.

        Fraud (misappropriation of assets, financial corruption and fraud in financial statements) is a major problem in every type of industry and institution. Misappropriation of assets has the highest frequency of fraud in different societies. According to the documentation theory, the performance of people (detection of fraud and misappropriation of assets) is caused by internal tendencies and individual characteristics (cognitive styles); or external, environmental conditions and job requirements (professional skepticism) or both factors. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of auditors' cognitive styles (internal characteristics) on the ability to detect misappropriation of assets, emphasizing the mediating role of professional skepticism (external factor). This research is of applied and survey type. The statistical population includes working auditors who are members of the official accountants society of Iran in the year 1400; 375 people who were selected using random sampling. data was collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using structural equation modeling with the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach. The results show that abstract-random, abstract-sequential, objective-sequential and objective-random cognitive styles respectively have the greatest effect on the ability to detect misappropriation of assets and professional skepticism mediates their relationship is crying. The professional skepticism of the auditors also increases the ability to discover the misappropriation of assets.

        One of the challenges and problems of traditional accounting systems is that financial statements and reports of corporations do not disclose value of intellectual properties. Though the role of intellectual properties in creating value added to organization is so much more than other assets, but they are not presented in such statements. So, accountants and accounting systems have a very important role for finding an effective ways for measuring and controlling intellectual capital by presenting new models and assessments methods. This research studies the factors affecting the intellectual capital in companies which are listed in Tehran stock exchange. This essay examines these factors through four hypotheses. Our society is all accepted companies in TSE which have presented their financial statements in 2009. Independent factors in this essay are assets, gross profit rate , ratio of shareholders equity and company establishment date . Meanwhile, intellectual capital factors are considered as dependent factors. The findings of testing hypotheses show that total amount of assets and gross profit rate have a positive effect in showing intellectual capital, but company age and ratio of shareholders have no effect for presenting intellectual capital. At last we got that effect of gross profit is more than effect of total amount of assets. Manuscript profile

        AbstractThe aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between policy uncertainty and cryptocurrencies with the financial accounting approach of cryptocurrency assets. The political uncertainty index was calculated based on the approach of Becker et al. (2016) in terms of monetary, financial and exchange rate policy dimensions for the countries of Iran, China, the United States and the United Kingdom, and its relationship with the cryptocurrencies market ,Bitcoin, was evaluated. In this study, an attempt was made to evaluate this relationship using the financial accounting approach of cryptocurrencies assets, the most important of which is Bitcoin. The time period of this study was 2012-2021 based on the frequency of monthly data. The results obtained from this estimation of the general method of movement model indicated that the index of political uncertainty in China, America, England and Iran had a positive relationship with the monthly yield of cryptocurrencies and only the number of interruptions of the variable's influence was different. . Therefore, investors in the cryptocurrencies market can have a higher expected return by accepting the risk caused by political uncertainty and predicting the state of macroeconomic variables.

There is no doubt that there will be a lot of problems in practice because the investment of shareholders is affected by too many factors among which we can mention investment structure (financial leverage).So financial managers of companies pay their attention to the effects of various methods to provide financial resources and evaluate the effect of different financial structures on investment of share holders. The aim of this research is to consider defining factors and the relation between investment structure and above-mentioned factors in the companies which are accepted in Tehran Stock Exchange Market. According to this target, we have ed 88 companies among the statistical society which provide our required data for an 8-year period of research (2002 to 2009). "Compound Regression" method is used to test research theories and "Significant Test Patterns" is done by F and t parameters.  Manuscript profile

        The present paper investigates the effect of establishing a direct subsidy system on profitability indicators (sales return rate, shareholder return rate, asset return rate) within the framework of political economy theory. The statistical population of the present study is Tehran Stock Exchange, which 168 companies were selected as the sample of the study from 2006 to 2020 period. In order to perform statistical analysis in the present study multiple linear regression method with panel-effects method was used. Findings from the analysis of research data show that profitability indicators decreased in the period after the establishment of the direct subsidy system. Also other findings show that the accruals based earnings management has increased in the period after the establishment of direct subsidy system. Based on the findings of the present study, it can be concluded that subsidizing targeting plan has reduced the profitability of companies and increased accrual-based earnings management through cost pressures on producers.   Manuscript profile

        Profit smoothing can be seen as a deliberate reduction in profit fluctuations, so that the activities of the company appear to be normal. Managers are making profit smoothing to reduce this volatility. Some experts believe that investors are more willing to invest in smoothing companies and are willing to pay more for them. Researchers believe that some of the characteristics of the company influence the motivation of managers to smooth profits. This study attempts to explain the theoretical foundations of the research, the relationship between earnings smoothing and company characteristics such as earnings quality, P/E and ROE and ROTA. Check the securities. In order to investigate the relationship between earnings smoothing and firm characteristics, data related to the period 2010-2017 were collected and analyzed. Logistic regression was used to test the research hypotheses. The results show that companies with higher price to earnings (P/E) ratios have more incentive to report earnings. And companies with higher earnings quality are more motivated to report earnings smoothly. Finally, it was found that larger ROTAs had a greater incentive to report earnings. Manuscript profile

        Identifying the distributional behavior of returns of risky assets is one of the necessities that has attracted the attention of many researchers. Because a more accurate knowledge and understanding of the distribution behavior of returns in them allows for more accurate predictions of the future state of the market, especially in determining the risk-exposed value of these assets, which has a direct relationship with the distribution form of returns. The aim of the current research is to investigate the distributional changes of financial asset returns in the periods before and after covid-19 based on power law, stretched exponential function and Gaussian q-functions.In this regard, 3 variables: stock market index, gold price and exchange rate were investigated and their related Information was collected in each of the trading days during the period of 2016-03-26 to 2023-01-19 .In order to test the hypotheses, by using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the empirical distribution of returns was compared with each of the mentioned distributions. The results showed that the logarithmic distributions of these assets do not follow any of the probability distributions obtained from the power law, stretched exponential and q-Gaussian.

        As societies transition from the industrial age to the information age, the importance of intangible assets has increased in the business world. The wave of companies moving to invest in intangible assets and the formation, encouragement, and inclination to create knowledge-based and technology-driven corporations have been indicative of changing business models, strategies, and moves toward a developed economy. However, accounting standards for intangible assets appear to have been neglected, resisting the shift to alignment with economic change. The purpose of this research is to design a model based on the views of key users for reporting intangible assets. This research is a qualitative research using a grounded theory approach. The statistical population consisted of auditors, official justice experts, bank creditors, managers of investment firms and managers of knowledge-based corporations, using a purposive sampling approach in total of 15 individuals selected as research participants.  Data were collected by interview and semi-structured and then, using content analysis, the main themes were identified and their network was drawn using NVIVO software. The categories of causal, strategic, and consequential were introduced, and financial reporting was identified as an intervening variable, "useful decision making information"a component that could be seen in all categories. It was useful to know how to make decisions about intangible assets. The title of the pivotal category was introduced. Manuscript profile

        This study aimed to add cost-sensitive learning technique to imbalanced data-based bankruptcy prediction models in order to reduce type I error and increase the geometric mean criterion of overall accuracy to reduce the misclassification costs of bankrupt companies for stakeholders. For this purpose, type I error, type II error, and the geometric mean of overall accuracy of bankruptcy models based on cost-sensitive learning were compared with bankruptcy prediction models with highly imbalanced datasets. The statistical sample included 1200 year-companies since 2001- 2020, consisting of 90% healthy companies and 10% bankrupt companies. Hypotheses test results showed that adding a cost-sensitive learning technique to the bankruptcy prediction models led to a significant decrease in the type I error, a significant increase in the type II error, and a significant increase in geometric mean of accuracy of imbalanced data-based models at 95% confidence level. Also, with the increase in the misclassification cost of bankrupt companies, type I error had a downward trend and the II type error had an upward trend, and the geometric mean of accuracy had an upward trend.

        Finding solutions for price prediction, forming an optimal portfolio and achieving more profit are the basic goals of financial market activists. The purpose of this research is to predict the price of financial assets such as several stocks, gold, coin and a number of digital currencies using the LSTM neural network model and then form an optimal portfolio by calculating the rate of return, risk and the Sharpe ratio. The data used is from the archives of the Tehran Stock Exchange website, the website of the gold, coin and currency information network, as well as the website of buying and selling digital currencies. The time series of the prices of the investigated assets is between 2017 and 2020. Also, we used Python programming language and Gephi software to build the model and analyze the data. In the end, it was found that the LSTM neural network model is capable of predicting the price of financial assets with a very low error rate in each asset, and according to the Sharpe ratio obtained for each financial asset and the correlation matrix, Vebank stock, Khbahman 1 stock, and Digital currencies TRON, Tether and Bitcoin allocate more shares in the proposed portfolio.

        Purpose: This research was carried out with the aim of investigating the effect of corporate controversies on the performance of companies in the Tehran Stock Exchange.Method: In this research, the required data were extracted from Rahavard Novin software, financial statements of companies and text mining, as well as the Tehran Stock Exchange website. The statistical population of the current research is the companies listed in the Tehran Stock Exchange in the period from 1391 to 1400. In order to test the research hypotheses, the combined data model was used. The software used for data analysis is Stata version 14.Findings: The results of research hypotheses show that three performance calculation criteria (return on assets, return on equity, economic added value) are negatively affected by company controversies. In other words, increasing the level of controversy with controversial and tension-causing factors reduces the ability of management to a significant extent.Conclusion: The negative perception by the stakeholders can have various consequences, including increasing financial risk, increasing the cost of debt, reducing the company's reputation and credibility, which will reduce the company's performance.Keywords: corporate controversies, company performance, return on assets, return on equity, economic added value Manuscript profile

        According to the importance of effectiveness and influence of alternative assets in the portfolio theory framework and proportional to the fluctuation of these assets in our country, predicting the probable changes in the price of these assets and their influence on the Tehran Stock Exchange's index and the price of real estate proportional to the changes on the international price of oil, is vital to get analyzed from different angles. The purpose of this research is to present a model to predict the influence of the alternative assets on the Tehran Stock Exchange's index. This model is built with the factors including system dynamics, currency rate, gold price, international price of oil and real estate's price. The virtual model is built with Vensim DSS software. The conclusion is that on the long run, the changes of gold price and currency rate have a reverse effect on the Tehran Stock Exchange's index and real estate's price. Considering that the Iran's economy is factor based and is mostly dependent on the oil's price, increasing the price of oil will cause the Tehran Stock Exchange's index and real estate's price to increase on the long run Manuscript profile

        Evaluation of stocks based on return and risk related to capital assets is one of the important issues of this field. The majority of multifactor models are defined based on the assessment of one of the return and risk criteria. Nevertheless, the model presented in this study evaluated return and risk simultaneously. The multifactor patterns are static and do not express dynamic changes during time intervals affected by latent factors. In this research, unpredicted fluctuations in stock return were defined as latent factors in the penalty function. A more accurate estimate was provided by using the simulation of Fama–MacBeth regression in the estimation of effective parameters and separation of the effects of latent and manifest factors affecting stock return and risk. According to the analysis of the field of knowledge and content analysis, factors affecting the stock return were recognized, and the most effective factors including market measures were refined as manifest factors based on the tolerances. Finally, the model proposed(P-PCA) was exploited in risk prediction (at risk value). According to the results of the study, the mentioned model more efficiently showed the effects of latent and manifest factors on stock return over a long period. In addition, it was able to predict the risk of investment with proper accuracy and similar to patterns of conditional variance, such as ARCH and GARCH. Manuscript profile

        In any economic system the role of banks to collect deposits of the banking system (Procurement of resource) and its application in the financing of investment projects (allocation of resource) is very important. Nowadays, Expansion of global markets and increase competition in the markets for financial services is affected the profitability of the banking industry, significantly. Given that the profitability of banks is one of functions of banks and a more profitable bank has more power to deal with negative shocks to the market, Therefore, attention to the profitability index as one indicator of evaluating the performance of the banks and its role in decisions related to the mobilization of resources, financing and resource allocation is essential. in this study To achieve this goal, the affective factors on profitability of commercial banks has been modeled and studied during 2009-2013. The scope of this study contains 8 commercial banks listed on Tehran Stock Exchange including Eghtesade Novin, Parsian, Karafarin, Pasargad, Mellat, Tejarat, Saderat and Sina. The study also is used the Panel ARDL method to achieve the targets. The results of this study showed that, The ratio of shareholders' equity to assets, The ratio of credit to assets, bank size and inflation have a direct and positive effect on the profitability of commercial banks. So, increasing and improvement of this variables increase the profitability of commercial banks in the short term and long term. However, the effect of credit risk on commercial bank's profitability index is negative. So that increasing of this variable deacrease the profitability of commercial banks in the short term and long term. finally, The results of ECM model reveal that the speed of adjustment towards long-run equilibrium is low, So that if the shock enters the model the long time require for correct the short-run and long-run imbalance equilibrium and back model to first equilibrium.

        Nowadays, the quality management systems are important in the management of companies and organizations. Purpose of these systems is to increase profitability, survival of the organization and customer's satisfaction, along with steady decline of real costs. The implementation of these strategies can help organization to move from traditional form and led to dynamic and flexible structure. Thus many organizations cost a lot to achieve the benefits of establishment these systems. But in some cases, due to lack of correct understanding of the systems and particular conditions of the organization, implementation of these strategies leads to failure. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between JIT-based quality management and financial performance of organizations. To do so, car companies listed on the stock exchange during the years 1389-1385 selected and their financial information examined. The results indicated that between JIT-based quality management and return on equity, there is a significant relationship at the 99% confidence level while, there is no any significant relationship between JIT-based quality management and return on assets.  Manuscript profile

        Theoretically, firms should reduce information risks to provide a transparent environment for different groups in capital market to make decisions. Therefore, identifying potential risk factors is important. This paper investigated the impact of earnings forecast bias and information asymmetry in imperfect competition market on the idiosyncratic risk. It is used the standard deviation of residuals extracted from capital asset pricing model to measure the idiosyncratic risk. Earnings forecast bias is measured based on the absolute value of difference between actual value and forecasted value of earnings per share scaled by the beginning stock price. In addition, information asymmetry is assessed based on the stock price bid-ask spread. Using filtering method, 147 firms listed in Tehran Securities & Exchange during 2013 to 2018 selected as research population. Research hypotheses analyzed through multivariate regression models. Research results showed that more earnings forecast bias lead to increase the idiosyncratic risk. In addition, high level of information asymmetry caused to increase the idiosyncratic risk. Also information asymmetry lead to strengthen the positive relation between earnings forecast bias and idiosyncratic risk. As a whole, firms with high level of earnings forecast bias & information asymmetry as inverse proxies of information quality which have worse information environment have more idiosyncratic risk.

        In this paper, we discuss how theoretical results from one family of fuzzy sets can be carried over immediately to another family of fuzzy sets by the use of lattice isomorphisms. We also show that these families can occur naturally and that applications may not necessarily be carried over using these isomorphisms. We illustrate this using techniques from the study of human trafficking and its analysis using mathematics of uncertainty. We also consider the new definition of fuzzy set provided by Trillas and de Soto. Manuscript profile
