The Cost of Credit in the Presence of Missed and Delayed Payments Fees | Chapter 7 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol.5

Partial insolvency in leasing contracts may entail affording additional costs. In this paper, we focus on the case that the lessee makes partial payments in due time and settles the debt increased by the late payment interests later. The presence of the extra-costs drives the lease Effective Annual interest Rate (EAR) to deviate from the lease contract rate. This work aims to illustrate how design the contract payback amortization to stick EAR to the lease contract rate, when the lease contract rate, the late payment rate, and the contract terms are exogenously fixed. First, we achieve a proxy for EAR given by the lease contract rate plus an extra-charge rate addendum. We show that this last addendum is sensitive to the payback Modified Duration, a weighted size, and timing average. Specifically, the longer the Modified Duration, the smaller the extra-charge rate addendum. As a consequence, two general rules to drive EAR close to the lease contract rate to roll out, specifically: (1) the payment pattern should be set with a long Modified Duration; and (2) the surrender value of the leased good should be put large. As the contract settlement is given, we identify a lower bound and an upper bound for EAR. The results of the paper are useful to provide policymakers a better knowledge about the effects on EAR of the contract conditions on the pattern of payments.

Evaluation of Systematic Risk of Viet Nam Construction Material Industry during the Pre-Low Inflation Period 2012-2014 | Chapter 3 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol. 3

Construction material industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors, with many achievements both in Vietnam and in Asia. In recent years, its rapid growth has produced revenues from business activities. One of the key objectives of this paper is to assess market risk volatility in construction material businesses in the 2012-2014 pre-low inflation period. Our first findings are to be found that beta values in general (< 1) for most of our construction material companies are appropriate when we apply quantitative, statistical and analytical methods to evaluate the asset beta and beta CAPM of 20 listed Viet Nam construction material companies. However, we analyze the market risk volatility, determined by asset and equity beta var,  during the post-low inflation period in this sector and compare results in two circumstances: risk fluctuation in pre-low inflation time 2012-14 is lower than that in post-low inflation period 2015-2017. Finally, if we observe in 2 periods, Beta CAPM or equity beta mean goes up in case post-low inflation period.  At last, policies in risk management and governance are suggested in the conclusion based on the research results and findings. In the post-low inflation environment, we alert that Beta fluctuations could be little higher.

Asset and Equity Beta of Viet Nam Public Utilities- Electric Power and Water Industries after the Low Inflation Period | Chapter 13 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol. 2

The Vietnam economy has obtained lots of achievements after the financial crisis 2007-2011, until it reached a low inflation rate of 0.6% in 2015. Vietnam Water & Electric power Company group are growing and contributing much to the economic development and has been affected by inflation. High and increasing inflation might reduce values of Water& Electric power Company group contracts. This paper measures the volatility of market risk in Viet Nam Water& Electric power Company group after this period (2015-2017) and recommends policies for sutainable water treatment and development. The main reason is the necessary role of the of Water& Electric power Company group system in Vietnam in the economic development and growth in recent years always go with risk potential and risk control policies.  Hence, this research paper aims to figure out how much increase or decrease in the market risk of Vietnam Water& Electric power Company group firms during the post-low inflation environment 20152017. First, by using quantitative combined with comparative data analysis method, we find out the risk level measured by equity beta mean in the water and electric power industry is acceptable, as it is lower than (<) 1. Then, one of its major findings is the comparison between risk level of stock investment industry compared to those of Water Company group in the post-low inflation time 2015-2017. In fact, the research findings show us market risk level of water and electric power group during the post-low inflation time is lower (equity beta mean = 0.412). Then, another major finding is the comparison between risk level of electric power industry in the post-low inflation time 2015-2017 compared to those in the crisis 2007-09. In fact, the research findings show us market risk level of electric power group during the post-low inflation time is higher. Finally, this paper provides some ideas that could provide companies and government more evidence in establishing their policies in governance. This is the complex task but the research results shows us warning that the market risk need to be controlled better during the post-low inflation period 20152017. And our conclusion part will recommends some policies and plans to deal with it. Basically, we need to have a better integration management of water cross the country, identify challenges in water treatment and resolve them.
