Title A name given to the resource Determinants of Profitability of Listed Manufacturing Firms in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Abdul – Malik Abubakari Description An account of the resource Due to the direct impact of manufacturing firms’ performance to economic stability, there is the need for special attention to examine factors that affect the manufacturing firms’ profitability (Akbas & Karadinan 2012). According to Opondo (2004), most studies has examined the determinants of profitability of firms considering variables such as capital structure, cash liquidity, firm size, and financial leverage in other countries but however, much has not been done in the Ghanaian context. This study assesses the determinant of financial performance of listed manufacturing firms in Ghana. The study used quantitative research approach and explanatory research design. Purposive sampling technique was used to select eight manufacturing companies out of the total population of thirteen listed manufacturing firms. The study used only secondary source of data (audited financial statements) for five year period, from 2011 to 2015. Also, correlation analysis was used to assess the collinearity between the dependent variables thus Return on Equity (ROE) and Return on Asset (ROA) and the independent variables such as financial leverage, cash liquidity, firm size, inflation and exchange rate, while the regression analysis indicates the effect of the independent variables on the dependent variables. The result highlighted a negative significant relationship between financial leverage and ROE and ROA. Also, cash liquidity recorded established a positive insignificant relationship of ROE and ROA. Firm size establishes a positive significant relationship of ROE and ROA, inflation establish a significant negative relationship of ROE and ROA and also, exchange rate volatility establish a significant negative relationship of ROE and ROA.

Title A name given to the resource Using Item Response Theory to Understand Item-Nonresponse (Missing Data) in Ghanaian Surveys Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Abdul Iddrisu Wahab Description An account of the resource After reviewing the theoretical and empirical literature on Item Response Theory (IRT) and Item-Nonresponse, this study investigates three issues: Firstly, to identify the most appropriate IRT model for understanding item-nonresponse. Secondly, to find out the reason behind ''don't know'' responses and missing data; whether respondents don‟t really know, don‟t care, or don‟t want to tell. Finally, to find out the characteristics of nonrespondents in Ghanaian surveys. Secondary analyses were done on questionnaire data collected in the 5th wave of the world values survey. All items were dichotomously scored. 0 was assigned to missing or „don‟t know‟ responses, and 1 was assigned to answered items. The data was analysed based on four item response theory models namely, the constrained Rasch model, the unconstrained Rasch model, the two parameter logistic model, and the three parameter logistic model … Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2012 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=ECTxVnYAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=ECTxVnYAAAAJ:LkGwnXOMwfcC Language A language of the resource English 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 Modeling and Forecasting of Ghana’s Inflation Volatility Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Abdul-Karim Iddrisu, Dominic Otoo, Iddrisu Wahab Abdul, Sylvia Ankamah Description An account of the resource In this paper, we assessed volatility of Ghana’s inflation rates for 2000 to 2018 using the auto-regressive conditionally heteroskedasticity (ARCH), generalized ARCH (GARCH), and the exponential GARCH (EGARCH) models. The inflation data were obtained from the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS). The proposed model should be able to provide projections of inflation volatility from 2019 and beyond. The results showed that higher order models are required to properly explain Ghana’s inflation volatility and the EGARCH(12, 1) is the best fitting model for the data. The EGARCH(12, 1) model is robust to model and forecast volatility of inflation rates. Also, the results suggest that we are forecasting increasing volatility and there is increasing trend in general prices of goods and services for 2018 and beyond. The forecasts figures revealed that Ghana’s economy is likely to be unstable in 2018 and 2019. This study therefore recommends that policy makers and industry players need to put in place stringent monetary and fiscal policies that would put the anticipated increase in inflation under control. The models were implemented using R software.

Title A name given to the resource Joint modeling of longitudinal CD4 count data and time to first occurrence of composite outcome Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Abdul-Karim Iddrisu, Wahab Abdul Iddrisu, Abu Sambor Gambedu Azomyan, Freedom Gumedze Description An account of the resource In this study, we jointly modeled longitudinal CD4 count data and survival outcome (time-to-first occurrence of composite outcome of death, cardiac tamponade or constriction) in other to investigate the effects of Mycobacterium indicus pranii immunotherapy and the CD4 count measurements on the hazard of the composite outcome among patients with HIV and tuberculous (TB) pericarditis. In this joint modeling framework, the models for longitudinal and the survival data are linked by an association structure. The association structure represents the hazard of the event for 1-unit increase in the longitudinal measurement. Models fitting and parameter estimation were carried out using R version 4.2.3. The association structure that represents the strength of the association between the hazard for an event at time point j and the area under the longitudinal trajectory up to the same time j provides the best fit.
