Title A name given to the resource Elimination of waste and inefficiencies through lean maintenance management in mining industries, Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kofi Mintah Oware, Solomon Samanhyia, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource Due to growing global competition, the mining industry has suffered significant share of losses and the mining industry in Ghana is no exception. Lean operations and maintenance is a widely accepted and adopted approach across many industries and this concept has not been tested in a Ghanaian situation. The Process Maintenance section of the Processing Department was studied to identify the successes, failures, and challenges of lean maintenance implementation, in the areas of maintenance system, rework and maintenance cost. Qualitative and quantitative measures were used to document and compare the individual case studies. Both primary and secondary data on the Processing Plant of Newmont Gold Ghana Limited was used to analyze the effects and benefits of the lean maintenance implementation in a pre and post comparison. Findings of the study showed that Newmont Gold Ghana Limited was able to reduce reworks (defects), plant down time, and maintenance cost and all these reductions added to the total improvement in the company’s operations. The general observation also revealed the need for a continuous training of workers on ways in improving lean maintenance culture.

Title A name given to the resource ASSESSMENT OF RISK AND CHALLENGES OF DEBT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN ORGANISATIONS Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kofi Mintah Oware, Solomon Samanhyia, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource Account receivables have been a major problem for most utility service providers especially those still dealing with the post payment method where services are rendered before payment is made. This study assessed risk and debt management practices using Ghana Water Company Ltd (GWCL) as a case study. Both primary data and secondary data were used. Ratio analysis was main data analytical procedure. The study found account receivables to be fluctuating from 2010 to 2014 whereas revenue collected falls short of account receivables over the same period. The account receivable to current asset ratio indicated the existence of poor management of account receivables. Improper risk management of accounts receivables led to the inability of GWCL to initiate maintenance and expansion projects. The weakness of the law, ineffective and inefficient management of accounts receivables and poor investment in the collection of account receivable were some of the factors identified as the causes of poor Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available IJECM Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2015 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&amp;hl=en&amp;user=NogL9W0AAAAJ&amp;cstart=20&amp;pagesize=80&amp;citation_for_view=NogL9W0AAAAJ:kNdYIx-mwKoC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/9b9f8a3116a72f8ede9866ef38b253b7.pdf 248e3363aa35bef7fc346e5c90371730 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 An Econometric View on the Effect of Bank of Ghana’s Policy Rate on Financial Risks and Performance of Listed Banks on the Ghana Stock Exchange. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kojo Gyasi Dadsi Description An account of the resource The study used the Ordinary Least Square Method (OLS) and Pearson Correlation to determine the relationship between the Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) and banks financial performance in Ghana. The study also used same method to establish the effect of the MPR on financial risk and some key macroeconomic indicators. The samples banks constituted banks listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) with data extracted from the Bank of Ghana’s website, Ghana Statistical Services (GSS) and annual reports of the banks from the period 2005 – 2016. The findings revealed that MPR has a significant negative influence on ROE, ROA, BATO, DY and NPM which signifies that high policy rate distorts the performance of banks in Ghana hence the need to keep the rate down. MPR was also found to have a strong correlation and significant relationship with credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. MPR was found to have a negative relationship with GDP Growth. Though this relationship was not significant, the correlation results revealed a moderately strong relation of -0.5. In conclusion, the negative influence of MPR on banks performance and its high effect on financial risk is can be considered as one of the major components affecting the overall performance of the economy. As banks play an important role in economic growth, it is recommended that the BoG must be more strategic and circumspective in taking their numerous monetary decisions.

Title A name given to the resource Knowledge-based economy capacity building for developing countries: a panel analysis in Southern African Development Community Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Koketso Phale, Fanglin Li, Isaac Adjei Mensah, Akoto Yaw Omari-Sasu, Mohammed Musah Description An account of the resource The Southern African Development Community is lagging behind in terms of knowledge economy relative to other regions worldwide. This dramatically reduces the chances of keeping up with their economically established counterparts in terms of sustainable development. This paper therefore, applies multivariate panel data analysis which is predicted on the Cobb–Douglas production function to analyze the affiliation flanked by knowledge-based economy pillars and economic growth from 1998–2018. The World Bank knowledge-based economy framework is employed. To achieve the study goal, the long-run effect regarding proxies of each pillar in the knowledge-based economy on economic growth is first estimated. Afterwards, the average impact of each pillar is examined using the average impact index (AII). Employment of both conventional unit root and co-integration tests showed all observed series are stationary and co-integrated. Further estimation of the long-run relationship using both static and dynamic models (fixed effect and generalized method of moment) portrayed that government effectiveness, adjusted savings on education expenditure, tertiary enrollment, scientific and technical journals, and mobile cellular subscriptions have significant positive impact on economic growth. Finally, the AII estimation unveiled that the innovation pillar is the most impactful aspect on economic growth followed by education and skills with the least being information and communication technology infrastructure. Feasible policy recommendations are further suggested.

Title A name given to the resource EVALUATING POSTGRADUATE STUDENTS’AWARENESS OF FORENSIC ACCOUNTING AS A TOOL FOR FRAUD DETECTION AND PREVENTION Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kong Yusheng, Stephen Kwadwo Antwi, Mohammed Musah, Mandella Osei-Assibey Bonsu, Mary Donkor Description An account of the resource The ever-increasing incidence of fraud has raised concerns about the kind of accounting education provided to students all over the world. The importance of forensic accounting as a discipline aimed at helping organizations to detect and prevent fraud has necessitated its inclusion in accounting curriculum of universities to train more capable accountants. This study seeks to examine the awareness of international postgraduate students on forensic accounting as a tool to aid in fraud detection and prevention. A questionnaire was administered with 156 international postgraduate accounting and finance students from 24 different countries studying in universities in China. The results show that there is a very low level of awareness on forensic accounting among international postgraduate students studying in Chinese universities. The findings also indicate the lack of improved forensic accounting integration into the educational curriculum of the universities that the participants pursued their previous accounting degrees. The study recommends that Chinese universities integrate forensic accounting into their accounting curriculum especially at the postgraduate level to introduce students to the emerging discipline. The universities should also mount specialized forensic accounting programs as obtained in most universities in the US to bridge the gap created as a result of lack of awareness among international students, especially from Asia and Africa. This will go a long way to mitigate possible fraud that may arise as a result of investment in the global economy through the Belt and Roads Initiative of China.
