In recent years, as China’s urbanization level has risen, China’s urban fixed asset investment has also been rising. Judging from monthly data, China’s urban fixed asset investment has shown a volatile upward trend, with an obvious 11-month cycle. And in each cycle, the fluctuation range of the investment amount is getting larger. This paper uses an ARIMA model with an additive seasonal effect to fit the monthly urban fixed asset investment sequence and predict the future investment. In the end, this paper established a fitting model for China’s urban fixed asset investment, and obtained a good forecasting effect.

This article provides a composite index for Pay-As-You-Earn (PAYE)tax using Principal Components Analysis (PCA). The study uses time series from April 2012 to March 2020 (using monthly data) for the ratios derived from the four compliancemeasures namely, payments on time, registration on time, filing on time and accurate declarations. The index is computed using the weights of the four derived principal components. According to the model results, the PAYE tax compliance index averages around 75.0% for the period, with the lowest value of 72.3% in 2013/14 and the highestvalue of 77.1% achieved in 2018/19. There is a clear upward trend, indicating improving levels of compliance in PAYE. Similarly, setting the baseline index of 100 i.e. assuming 100% compliance for 2012/13, results in PAYE tax compliance index averaging around 101.6% for the period, with the lowest value of 97.72% in 2013/14 and the highest value of 104.26% achieved in 2018/19. The study recommends this methodology to be applied to all the tax products and that the overall tax compliance index be computed. This will assist tax authorities all over the world to actively monitor tax compliance levels and institute timeous corrective measures in order to address non-compliance and ultimately maximise PAYE revenue collections. Moreover, this study also serve as a base for many of the future tax compliance indices studies.

Abstract Forecasting of hydrometeorological timeseries data play vital role in flood forecasting and predicting the future water availability for various uses such as irrigation, hydropower generation, industrial, domestic, etc. Therefore, present study aims to forecast the hydrometeorological timeseries data, i.e., river inflows, precipitation, and evaporation for the improved reservoir operation of a transboundary Mangla catchment by using ARIMA (auto-regressive integrated moving average) model. Prior to applying the ARIMA model, stationarity of hydrometeorological timeseries data was checked. Moreover, ACF and PACF of timeseries were determined to determine the “p” and “q” terms of the ARIMA model. The best fitted structure of ARIMA model was used by evaluating the R2, MAE and RMSE to forecast the hydrometeorological timeseries. The seasonal ARIMA structure of (1,0,0)(2,1,2)12 was found best fitted for the inflow timeseries whereas ARIMA structures of (14,1,15) and (9,1,19) were considered for forecasting the precipitation and evaporation timeseries, respectively. An average water shortage of 14% was detected by using these forecasted hydrometeorological timeseries in the reservoir operation during the period of 2016–2030. It was also observed that inflows into Mangla reservoir have seasonal effect more prominent compared to evaporation and precipitation. However, variations in the precipitation timeseries were found less smooth than the inflows timeseries. It is believed that the results of this study may support reservoir operators and managers for developing efficient real-rime reservoir operation policies and strategies based on the variations in the future water availability.

Abstract The spread of the COVID-19 started in Wuhan on December 31, 2019, and a powerful outbreak of the disease occurred there. According to the latest data, more than 165 million cases of COVID-19 infection have been detected in the world (last update May 19, 2021). In this paper, we propose a statistical study of COVID-19 pandemic in Egypt. This study will help us to understand and study the evolution of this pandemic. Moreover, documenting of accurate data and taken policies in Egypt can help other countries to deal with this epidemic, and it will also be useful in the event that other similar viruses emerge in the future. We will apply a widely used model in order to predict the number of COVID-19 cases in the coming period, which is the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model. This model depicts the present behaviour of variables through linear relationship with their past values. The expected results will enable us to provide appropriate advice to decision-makers in Egypt on how to deal with this epidemic.

Abstract The manufacturing industry directly reflects national productivity, and it is also an industry with serious carbon emissions, which has attracted wide attention. This study decomposes the influential factors on carbon emissions in China’s manufacturing industry from 1995 to 2018 into industry value added (IVA), energy consumption (E), fixed asset investment (FAI), carbon productivity (CP), energy structure (EC), energy intensity (EI), investment carbon intensity (ICI) and investment efficiency (IE) by Generalized Divisia Index Model (GDIM). The decoupling analysis is carried out to investigate the decoupling states of the manufacturing industry under the pressure of "low carbon" and "economy.” Considering the technological heterogeneity, we study the influential factors and decoupling status of the light industry and the heavy industry. The results show that: (1) Carbon emissions of the manufacturing industry present an upward trend, and the heavy industry is the main contributor. (2) Fixed asset investment (FAI), industry value added (IVA) are the driving forces of carbon emissions. Investment carbon intensity (ICI), carbon productivity (CP), investment efficiency (IE), and energy intensity (EI) have inhibitory effects. The impact of the energy consumption (E) and energy structure (EC) are fluctuating. (3) The decoupling state of the manufacturing industry has improved. Fixed asset investment (FAI), industry value added (IVA) hinder the decoupling; carbon productivity (CP), investment carbon intensity (ICI), investment efficiency (IE), and energy intensity (EI) promote the decoupling.

Matters about financing decision based on pecking order theory’s hierarchy are currently appealing. This research strives to discover how corporate’s fixed asset investment reacts to cash flow, debt issuance, and equity issuance. Researcher uses 75 samples of manufacturing company in Indonesia during 2010-2014 period with 199 firm-year observation. Multiple linear regression’s result indicates that cash flow and debt issuance have influence towards corporate’s fixed asset investment, but the equity issuance have no influence towards corporate’s fixed asset investment. Also regression coefficient exhibits that manufacturing company in Indonesia follows pecking order theory’s hierarchy.  Cash flow’s influence towards fixed asset investment is more significant than debt issuance’s, and debt issuance’s influence is stronger than equity issuance. This points out that corporate’s fixed asset investment is more sensitive towards cash flow (internal fund) compared to debt issuance (external fund), and so is debt issuance is more sensitive compared to equity issuance. With all that in mind, it is concluded that manufacturing company in Indonesia follows pecking order theory in terms of financing decision, which uses internal fund at first then started to use external fund if deemed necessary.

Investors in loss firms assess the likelihood of these firms reverting to profit (i.e. loss reversal). This research examines the factors useful for predicting future loss reversal in the Australian market. Specifically, it focuses on loss firms’ investment activities, in addition to factors examined in previous US literature. The results show that when the level of investment in specialised assets, such as mineral exploration and research and development, is high relative to fixed-asset investment, future loss reversals are less likely to occur. In contrast, a high level of fixed-asset investment increases the likelihood of future loss reversal. These results hold implications for loss-firm valuation. Further analysis documents a positive association between the ex-ante probability of loss reversal and future abnormal stock returns for loss firms with a weak information environment. Investors in these loss firms could benefit from the findings of this study.
