...SELF-CONTROL, FINANCIAL LITERACY, AND THE FINANCIAL BEHAVIORS OF YOUNG ADULTS Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jodi C. Letkiewicz, B.S., M.S. Graduate Program in Human Ecology ******* The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Jonathan Fox, Advisor Dr. Catherine P. Montalto Dr. Robert Scharff Dr. Caezilia Loibl Copyright by Jodi C. Letkiewicz 2012 ii ABSTRACT The objective of this paper is to determine whether financial literacy can moderate the effects that self-control has on financial outcomes. Financial literacy is an oft cited solution to the myriad financial complexities faced by consumers. If financial literacy is effective it should help consumers overcome issues of self-control to encourage more fiscally responsible behaviors. Both economic and psychological theories of self-control are explored, and a conceptual model using the Big Five personality trait of conscientiousness as a measure of self-control is utilized. Data for this study come from the 1997 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY). Asset data in the study was collected in Rounds 9-13 when the respondents were 25 years old. The measure of conscientiousness was collected in Round 13 as part of the Ten-Item Personality Inventory...

...CHAPTER 6 INTERNAL CONTROL IN A FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT Answers to Review Questions 6-1 From management's perspective, the internal control provides a way to meet its stewardship or agency responsibilities. Management also needs a control system that generates reliable information for decision-making purposes. The importance of internal control to the auditor is rooted in the second standard of fieldwork. The controls that are relevant to the entity's ability to initiate, record, process, and report financial data consistent with management's assertions are the auditor's main concern. The auditor needs assurances about the reliability of the data generated within the entity's internal control system in terms of how it affects the fairness of the financial statements and how well the assets and records of the entity are safeguarded. 6-2 The potential benefits and risks to an entity’s internal control from information technology include (see Table 6-1): Benefits: • Consistent application of predefined business rules and performance of complex calculations in processing large volumes of transactions or data. • Enhancement of the timeliness, availability, and accuracy of information. • Facilitation of additional analysis of information. • Enhancement of the ability to monitor the performance of the entity's activities and its policies and procedures. • Reduction in the risk that controls will be circumvented. ...

...Case: Capital Controls in Chile in the 1990s (A) Name Course Date Institution Why did Chile institute capital controls in 1991? Despite the impressive economic performance by Chile in the 1990’s, dramatic changes in the external environment call for a review of its capital controls. For instance, in 1991 the country instituted the “encaje” to control excessive speculative capital inflows. In addition, these controls would help the country efficiently manage her exchange rate regime and pursue an autonomous monetary policy. Due to the low prevailing global interest rates at the time, excess capital inflows exposed the Central Bank's capacity to manage the exchange rate within acceptable margins. Indeed, if the influx continued, Chile's inflation would drastically rise to unmanageable levels (Alfaro & Tella, 2007). Before the 1997 Asian financial crunch and the Russian debt crisis of 1998, the Chilean economy had thrived despite these controls. However, in the aftermath of these crises, the country suffered both trade and financial deficits. For instance, since Asia nations served as her important export destination, Chile’s current account deteriorated massively. Moreover, the declining price of cooper saw a plummeting of foreign exchange due to dwindling demand from traditional export markets. Certainly, these unpredictable changes in the dynamic economic environment force Chile to reassess its capital control strategies (Alfaro & Tella, 2007). Did...

...over the world fraud cost more than 2,9 trillion dollars every year (Win A. Van der Stede, 2011, p. 11). This essay will provide evidence from theoretical management and accounting theory to describe in which way corporations there are centralized, should be run best and most efficiently. Most corporations is multinational and divided in divisions and business units, because it makes them more efficient and easier to control. All these divisions make them highly complex and they operate probably in many different countries. I my opinion, centralized corporations should have the exact opposite characteristics, they should be small, probably founder-owned and operate in highly changeable environments, e.g. high-tech or service companies. I think they need a vertical organizational structure, where the information line is very close from the management to the employees. The main issue in my opinion, and the foundation to these companies success is that the employees and the management defines and create the strategy together. Then the strategy is defined, the control systems should be defined to together as well. I think it is important to notice that this only can work in small and centralized...
