Conceptual Capability and Family Business Survival: An Application of Jaque's Stratified Systems Theory in Family Business
Historically, only a small percentage of family businesses survive the transition from founder to successor generations. The present article tests the hypothesis that business performance following succession is in part attributable to the successor's current and future conceptual capacity at the time of the succession. Using a procedure derived from...

Monte Carlo Markov Chain Methods For Derivative Pricing
Derivative security pricing relies increasingly on lattice representations of stochastic processes. When the lattice is of high dimension, exhaustive enumeration becomes conceptually costly. Instead, Monte Carlo simulation is used to estimate lattice value by sampling appropriately from the nodes. Naïve sampling can lead to substantial error in estimation because the...

Best Practices
The article says that one can design an acceptance-sampling plan to signal when to undertake a total physical inventory count. Compared to taking a total inventory count at a fixed period annually, sampling can provide you with more accurate record counts, cause less disruption of operations, and lower costs. The sampling...

How To choose An Industrial Sample
If business-to-business marketers experience twinges of inadequacy when compared to their counterparts in consumer fields, sampling is often the reason. Consumer marketing men trot out jargon about quotas, stratification, probabilities and the like which is mumbo jumbo to 99 per cent of industrial marketers. The business-to-business researcher feels intuitively that...
