Title A name given to the resource Holistic analysis of the relationship between capital structure and stock price of consumer staples Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource M Owusu-Akomeah, Joseph Asare, EA Kuma, Stephen Owusu Afriyie Description An account of the resource Purpose: This study seeks to assess how capital structure and stock price are related to Ghana's consumer staple sector. Design/methodology/approach: The Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) has six consumer staple companies listed on it. The stock prices, equity values, debt values, market capitalization, and earnings per share of the listed consumer staple sector companies obtained from GSE were analyzed using Excel and SPSS. The result indicated that between 2011 and 2019, the companies recorded high mean equity value than mean debt value. The correlation analysis also suggested a weak relationship between capital structure and stock price. The fitted regression models suggested that capital structure is not a predictive variable for the stock price. Findings: The study discovered that consumer staple sector companies must pay much attention to the capital structure since it has a weak relationship with the stock price. Because its effect is not easily identified within a short period but accumulates over time which severely influences investors' decision. The study also observed that capital structure and stock price variations pose certain challenges to the companies. Practical implications: Financing decisions play a vital role in the management of firms. Two main funding options accessible by firms are equity and debt. Firms have the choice to go in for one or both funding options. Investors who patronize these stocks or shares gain interest in the performance of the firms' stocks. It is worth noting that equity and debt make up a firm’s financing structure.

Title A name given to the resource Constructive Bearing of Corporate Governance Mechanisms on Organizations: A Review of Corporate Governance Manual in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Obeng Danso, Yusheng Kong, Michael Nana Owusu-Akomeah, Stephen Owusu Afriyie Description An account of the resource The international standard on social responsibility, ISO 26000, describes organizational governance as a system by which an organization makes and implements business decisions in quest of its objectives. The corporate governance systems encompass management procedures that are geared towards delivering objective-based organizational performance, while considering the interests of stakeholders. The systems seek to ensure compliance of standards, regulations, and business rules to which organizations must observe and adhere to achieve the goal of the institution. In view of this, corporate governance manual provides a framework for directors, executives, and shareholders of organizations for protection and accomplishment. When the structures, practices, guidelines, regulations are strong, or stuck to, good governance would be upheld. In essence, the manual allows organizations to follow procedures that serve the needs of shareholders, management team, customers and other stakeholders responsibly and effectively, while meeting the organization’s short and long-term goals. It is generally associated with overarching principles such as fairness, independence, transparency, accountability, honesty and social responsibility. Corporate governance propels these principles into practice by making enhancements to internal controls and operational procedures to achieve organizational objectives.

Title A name given to the resource Public Sector Financial Management Reforms in Developing Economies: Insights from Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource M Owusu-Akomeah, Joseph Asare, Stephen Owusu Afriyie, EA Kuma Description An account of the resource Financial decentralization (FD) is key to bringing development closer to the citizenry. Therefore, there is a need to ensure the judicious use of funds mobilized by local authorities to bring about the desired level of development. To achieve this, governments of developing economies have to put measures in place to safeguard funds raised or provided to the public. One of such measures is the continuous reform of laws and regulations governing the mobilization and utilization of public funds. In Ghana, one of such Public Financial Management Reforms (PFMRs) is the Program Based Budgeting (PBB) which is aimed at ensuring the judicious utilization of public funds while meeting the demands of citizens. This study aimed at assessing the impact of PFMRs, with a special emphasis on fiscal decentralization in a selected Municipal Assembly in Ghana. The investigation used the mixed research method (quantitative and qualitative approaches) of data collection. Also, both primary and secondary data were used in this study. Primary data were collected through questionnaires and interviews, while secondary data were retrieved from the institution’s financial records. The study results revealed that there exists a positive relationship between PFMRs and FD, and a strong linkage between PBB and Service delivery in Municipal Assemblies. However, the assessment of the impact of PBB on service delivery at the selected Municipal Assembly showed a moderate impact. The study also revealed an improvement in revenue mobilization and expenditure, while noticing that resource dependency remains a challenge at the selected Municipal Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Universal Journal of Accounting and Finance Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2022 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=TbSlw38AAAAJ&citation_for_view=TbSlw38AAAAJ:3fE2CSJIrl8C Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/52af556e2e913008d0e3479555f337e6.pdf 9d770b2ebd013d78a90ab350cd6193ac Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Principles of public internal controls: A mediation role of information and communication Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Peter Yao Lartey, Santosh Rupa Jaladi, Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Isaac Gumah Akolgo Description An account of the resource While empirical research has demonstrated the critical nature of internal controls, there is insufficient evidence to indicate that they are effective at detecting and preventing irregularities in the public sector. By analyzing the direct and indirect relationships between internal control components, this study focuses on the quality of internal control in Ghana's public sector. In order to determine whether ongoing controls are consistent with sound public policy, a survey was designed and distributed to public sector employees and managers. According to the evidence, public administrators require high-quality information and communication tools to supplement their existing control systems. Additionally, internal controls are significantly influenced by risk assessment and the control environment, whereas monitoring and control activities have a limited impact. Effective internal communication is necessary for the coordination and implementation of control policies.
