Purpose - Foreign exchange risk control is in an important component in the international supply chain management. This study shows the importance of the reference period in forecasting future exchange rates with a specific illustration of KIKO currency option contracts, and suggests feasible preventive measures. Research design, data, and methodology - Using monthly Won-Dollar exchange rate data for January 1995~July 2007, I evaluate the statistical characteristics of the exchange rate for two sub-periods; 1) a shorter period after the East Asian financial crisis and 2) a longer period including the financial crisis. The key instrument of analysis is the basic normal distribution theory. Results - The difference in the reference period could lead to an unexpected development in contract implementation and a consequent financial loss. We may avoid foreign exchange loss by using derivatives such as forwards or currency options. Conclusions - We should consider not only level values but also the volatilities of financial variables in making a binding financial contract. Appropriate measures may differ depending on the specific supply chain pattern. We may extend the study with surveys on actual risk measures.

오늘날 항공기 항행에 있어서 자동조종장치와 FMS (flight management system)의 발전은 조종사들의 작업량감소와 항행 안전유지에 그 성과가 크다고 할 수 있다. 특히 공항의 교통량이 많거나 표준계기 출발 절차 (SID; standard instrument departure)가 복잡한 항행의 경우에 자동조종장치와 FMS 장비의 효과는 더욱 크다. 하지만 일부 공항의 특정한 출발 절차에서 FMS의 오류로 인한 uncommanded turn 이벤트가 발생하여, 항공기가 항로의 중심선에서 벗어나는 경우가 있다. 대부분의 출발 절차가 RNAV(area navigation) 운영이 요구됨으로, 조종사의 상황인식과 수정 조작이 항로 편차(deviation)를 최소화하여, RNAV의 안전을 유지하는 유일한 방법이다. 이와 관련하여 uncommanded turn 이벤트의 국내외 발생 현황을 기종별, 공항별, 비행 단계별로 조사하고 항공사의 uncommanded turn 이벤트 경감방안 분석을 통해 해당 이벤트의 더욱 근본적인 재발 방지대책 마련의 필요성 및 시사점을 도출하고자 한다.

The study aims to provide some evidence of the effects of CSR practices on financial-based brand equity in Malaysia. Nowadays, many companies have embraced corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices because CSR is a vital component of the current competitive and complex business arena. It contributes greatly to social, environmental, and economic condition. With CSR practices, companies are able to achieve many benefits and there is evidence that CSR practices predict higher brand equity. However, little evidence has been produced concerning the effects of CSR practices on financial aspects of brand equity in developing countries such as Malaysia. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the effects of CSR practices on financial based brand equity among Malaysia Top 100 brand. A CSR checklist instrument was used in the current study to examine the extent of CSR practiced. The results indicated that PLCs that were actively involved in CSR practices such as environmental, community, workplace and marketplace, found that this involvement enhanced their brand equity. The findings provide useful support and evidence for the management of PLCs in Malaysia, as well as companies in other developing countries, to engage more in CSR practices as a core element of their strategic and brand management.

Sericin beads were prepared from ethanol-precipitated sericin. The addition of ethanol into hot-water extracted sericin solution induced precipitation of sericin and thereby some sericin could be fractionated. The ethanol-precipitated sericin (EpSS) had narrower molecular weight distribution than original sericin. The EpSS had mainly random coil structure with small portion of ${\beta}-sheet$ structure. With the EpSS, spherical beads could be prepared at lower concentration than with original sericin due to higher viscosity. The EpSS beads had better compressive strength than the original sericin beads and had rubber-like property. Our results suggest that EpSS is more compatible in the polymeric field, since it has better mechanical strength than original sericin.
