The purpose of this study is to explore halal products in the Greater Luwu Market using halal supply chain treacebilit. the research intends to develop practical guidelines and recommendations for market operators and regulators to implement and maintain Halal assurance systems effectively. Ultimately, the goal is to promote consumer confidence in Halal products available in these traditional markets and contribute to the broader objective of standardizing Halal practices in the region. This study uses qualitative research by collecting data in the form of random interviews with economic actors of producers, distribution, and consumers in the Greater Luwu market. The results of the study found that first there are three sources of supply of goods or commodities in the Greater Luwu Market, namely outside the city , collectors of goods and land products themselves. Secondly, the application of halal awareness indirectly in the Greater Luwu community, which in fact is mostly Muslim, makes halal supply management in the Greater Luwu market run according to the provisions even though there is no specific tool to detect supply, so that the availability of halal food ingredients in the Greater Luwu market can be said to be easy to find and still dominant.

A Socioeconomic Approach to Studying Musical Instruments

ABSTRACT Considering musical instrument makers as socio-economic actors can inform narratives concerning not only the music business but also wider commercial activities. Makers use available materials, work alongside craftspeople in related trades, and operate in the same markets as suppliers of other cultural goods. Here we consider examples of organ builders (Ohrman & Nutt; Flight & Robson) and English guittar makers (Pinto; Clauss) to explore the musical, cultural, social and economic aspects of their commercial activities. These can be informatively positioned within the complex networks of British musical life in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Methods to increase the efficiency of logistics processes

The purchasing process is considered one of the important functional areas in logistics, aimed at managing the movement of material flows in the enterprise. Each enterprise plans purchases, as well as their implementation, but they are not always given enough attention, which leads to both the irrational use of materials and increased costs for the purchase of raw materials. Therefore, systematic analysis of supply procedures and monitoring of this type of activity is desirable. Approaches to assessing the performance of enterprise procurement aimed at reducing costs and ensuring financial stability are relevant. To increase the efficiency of supply chain work, it is recommended to use research methodology: with a well-organized procurement process, we can talk about increasing the profitability and profitability of the company. Among the methods used to organize supply, the principles of ensuring continuity of supply are considered, which indicate the need to study this issue. The authors come to the conclusion that using the example of company “A”, methods are analyzed that make it possible to regulate the supply of goods, depending on the calculation of demand.

The development planning of the Italian Mezzogiorno: a statistical-mathematical analysis by a Real Business Cycle model

Since the 1950s, the regions of the Italian South (Mezzogiorno) have benefited from large in-kind transfers (namely, the provision of goods and services financed by the richer Northern regions) with the aim of favouring their economic development. The research aim of this manuscript is to evaluate this planning strategy, namely, to understand whether the territorial transfers boost the Mezzogiorno’s development or, on the contrary, whether the crowding-out effect of the final government expenditure on private investment and household consumption is the reason for the longstanding low growth of this geographical area.To accomplish this goal, the authors write down and solve an appropriate Real Business Cycle model and carry out some stochastic simulations. Their findings demonstrate that the in-kind transfer strategy entails no benefits for the Southern regions. In addition, the authors, using an alternative specification of their baseline setting, document that an alternative approach based on infrastructural investment is effective in stimulating the long-term economic growth of the Italian South.

Deep Learning for Exchange Rate Prediction Within Time Constrain

The implementation of an open economic system in Indonesia since 1969 has significant impact to the national economic growth. The high demand and supply of goods from within the country involved in international trade demonstrate a close correlation between export and import activities with the exchange rate of the rupiah. Economic stability is measured through the stability of the rupiah exchange rate against foreign currencies. The balance between demand and supply in the global market is considered crucial for creating a stable economy. History has recorded the Indonesian economic crisis in 1998, where the exchange rate of the rupiah against the US dollar drastically raises and causing challenges to the domestic production cost. This research aiming to make predictions using data science approach based on historical (time series) data. GRU, LSTM, and RNN algorithm being assess to perform the prediction. Results show that RNN algorithms generally outperform GRU and LSTM in making the prediction, particularly with limited time series data. Although RNN is typically superior, in one instance, GRU achieved slightly higher accuracy (0.047% difference) for the CNY to IDR pair over five years. Furthermore, the research highlights the substantial impact of batch size on algorithm accuracy, considering external factors such as interest rates. These findings offer valuable insights for economic decision-making and policy formulation.

Implementing Moving Average Forecasting System for Apparel Sales: Predicting Inventory Needs with Enhanced Accuracy

Forecasting the supply of goods is one of the company's planning strategies to increase sales. However, there are several obstacles in forecasting the supply of goods in one of the boutiques in Jember Regency such as manual sales data collection, namely by recording clothing sales data in the sales book. So that there can be errors in predicting the supply of goods in the future. The purpose of this study is to apply a clothing sales forecasting system using the moving average method to forecast the supply of goods. This study applies the waterfall model to build a system with stages of analysis, design, implementation and testing. Analysis will be carried out by collecting data related to system requirements through observation, interviews and literature studies. While at the design stage there are usecase diagrams and system flow diagrams. Furthermore, the implementation stage was carried out in boutiques in Jember Regency by piloting the boutique owners. System testing uses black box testing to ensure there are no system functional errors. The findings show that the system in the form of a website can be run properly and can be accessed as long as there is an internet network. In addition, our system is already running well based on the results of black box testing. So that this system can be used by companies as forecasting considerations in providing inventory of goods.

Place-Based Collaborative Action as a Means of Delivering Goods and Services in Rural Areas of Developed Economies

This paper challenges the simplified binary division of suppliers of goods and services into market or state categories and identifies the continued relevance of household, community, and third-sector provision in rural areas. We explain the emergence, survival, and development of place-based and collaborative action using a three-fold typology, reflecting differences in the motivations and rationales for providing goods and services in these ways. In a place-based context, some communities have acted collectively using collaborative agency. Many observers of rural community development have suggested that place-based communitarian action may be unable to break free from class-based controls, but this is contested by some compelling examples. Where supported by effective public policy, place-based communitarianism can offer an alternative mode of provision for a wide range of services. Using Scotland as an example, this paper explores the dynamics of interactions between community and policy actors in land acquisition and management, renewable energy, and social care.

An integrated planning approach for perishable goods with stochastic lifespan: Production, inventory, and routing

This paper focuses on addressing the crucial challenges posed by the uncertainty surrounding perishable goods within the supply chain. With staggering socioeconomic costs and significant environmental implications, effective management of perishable goods emerges as a critical imperative. Globally, the annual loss of approximately 14% of food, amounting to a staggering USD 1 trillion, highlights the urgency of the issue. However, Prevailing classification methods for perishable products oversimplify their complexity by dividing them into fixed or variable lifespans, neglecting the random lifespans endured due to fluctuating storage conditions, blurring traditional boundaries between fixed and variable classifications. In response to these pressing challenges, the research proposes a novel approach: the development of a nonlinear mixed-integer programming model for a green closed-loop supply chain. This innovative model seamlessly integrates production, inventory, and routing decisions for both main and secondary products of a manufacturer. Moreover, it optimizes order splitting and transportation modes to efficiently convert perished items into raw materials under conditions of uncertainty. Central to the approach is the adoption of a scenario-based methodology to model uncertainties, particularly focusing on the variability in the lifespan of perishable products. This approach allows for a more nuanced understanding of the complex dynamics inherent in managing perishable goods within the supply chain. To solve the proposed model, a novel hybrid algorithm is introduced: the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm, or PSOSA, ensuring robust optimization under uncertainty and enhancing decision-making within the perishable goods supply chain. The research findings underscore the inadequacy of prevailing assumptions regarding the fixed lifespan of perishable products, commonly observed in the literature. By accounting for uncertainty in perishable goods’ lifespan, a more accurate representation of total producer costs is achieved, highlighting the misleading reduction of 25% observed when neglecting such uncertainty.

Full-Swing Nanosecond Delay Hybrid Level Shifter for Time-Critical Applications

A crucial component of digital integrated circuits with numerous power domains is the level shifter (LS). The traditional topologies are currently the mirror LS and cross-coupled LS. For full-swing level conversions from extremely low voltage to the nominal voltage of the supply, ahybrid LS is proposed in this paper, which is a combination of the current mirror LS and cross-coupled LS with a swing-aware output inverter. The proposed LS circuit is designed to ensure full swing, static current-free, and limited current-contention level conversions by preserving the benefits of the current mirror and cross-coupled LS, and using them to eliminate each other’s shortcomings. The proposed hybrid LS is designed and implemented by using 45-nm technology in Cadence Virtuoso tool. Pass transistors and current limiters with multiple thresholds are included for the suggested LS. The proposed LS provides voltage conversion from 0.10 V to 1.20 V. At alevel-shifting voltage of 0.20 V, the proposed hybrid LS at 1 MHz input frequency demonstrates a delay of 8.38 ns, an average power consumption of 3.81 µW, and an energy per transition of 26.64 fJ. Additionally, the suggested LS has low delay, good supply voltage scaling, and delay scalability.

A robust optimization to dynamic supplier decisions and supply allocation problems in the multi-retail industry

The research focuses on multi-retail distribution with a strategic distribution network. Challenges include intense competition, logistical and transportation complexities requiring robust infrastructure like warehouses and efficient supply chain management, as well as operational inefficiencies and distribution costs. To address these issues, a model is applied to make strategic decisions, such as determining the necessary number of facilities to minimize total supply chain network operational costs and infrastructure for retail distribution. The outcome is a model that introduces a novel approach to enhancing supply chain efficiency and effectiveness from production to distribution stages, thereby reducing system costs, including ordering costs and inventory handling. Costs and loss costs resulting from remaining products produced can be minimized by considering networks, multiple suppliers, multiple warehouses, Distribution Centers (DC), multiple retailers, and multiple products, factoring in the distances between facilities in the network. Subsequently, comprehensive testing of inspection, distribution, and retail parameters is conducted, with a focus on specific periods and product types. When applying this model, certain characteristics need to be considered regarding the importance of selecting efficient suppliers of goods, such as procurement, performance improvement, and the number of supply chains and supply chain systems. This research introduces novelty in production methods that can lead to increased customer satisfaction, sales, market share, profit margins, more effective brand advertising, and revenue streams. In this process, the research undergoes a training, testing, and validation process in forming a strategic multi-retail distribution network model, spanning a total of 52 epochs. This process yields accuracy values for training at 90 %, testing at 92 %, and validation at 94 %

Public sector procurement and the support of small and medium-sized enterprises: a comprehensive public procurement regulatory framework

Governments worldwide leverage their purchasing power to advance social, economic, and environmental agendas. Public procurement can be employed as a strategic instrument to support small and medium-sized enterprises. Many countries are showing a rising interest in leveraging public procurement to foster the integration of small and medium-sized enterprises into markets. However, access to public procurement contracts is a challenge for small and medium sized enterprises. There are challenges posed by government policies that is frequently overlooked. Public procurement regulations cover procedures, methods, standards, and terms for inviting bids, evaluation, selection, negotiation, awarding, and payment of suppliers of goods and services. However, many small businesses fail to meet these procedures, methods, standards, and terms because of capacities and resources constraints. There are public procurement initiatives that are currently being implemented throughout the world to help small businesses gain access to markets. Nevertheless, these initiatives are still relatively new and unstructured. There continues to be a dearth of peer reviewed research. This paper delineates small and medium-sized enterprises from various viewpoints, underlines their importance, explains the frameworks for public procurement, and proposes government-led initiatives that could facilitate the integration of small and medium-sized enterprises into the market. It is concluded that governments should implement strategies aimed at assisting small businesses. These strategies may include non-competitive practices, subcontracting initiatives, qualification criteria, preferential schemes, and award criteria. By doing so, governments can create a fairer playing field, promote the competitiveness of small businesses, and encourage their engagement in public procurement processes. This, in turn, will foster SME growth, spur economic development, and facilitate job creation.

Redemption of Shares or Stocks and Their Influence on Tax Obligation in Value Added Tax

The article presents the problem of taxation of value added tax and the remuneration in kind paid to a shareholder as a result of the redemption of shares. Settlements made between a company and a former shareholder may be considered a taxable transaction. Two opposing concepts found in the case law are to treat for tax purposes the redemption of shares with remuneration as a single transaction, or to separate only the phase of payment of remuneration for the redeemed shares and consider it a supply of goods for consideration. The practical importance of the issues raised is evidenced by the fact that these settlements often result in significant property flows. The purpose of the article is to try to demonstrate which of the existing concepts corresponds to the provisions of the law and the structural principles of the value added tax more closely.

Application of The Waterfall Method to the Website-Based JM Leather & Shoes Point of Sales Information System

Trading business is a type of business that has the basic concept of buying supplies of goods and reselling them with the aim of making a profit. In the current era, people continue to flock to set up a place of business, this is due to changes in market conditions as well as increasingly sophisticated economy and technology. JM Leather & Shoes continues to supervise and record the processing of goods data, supplier data, expenditure data, sales transactions, purchase transactions, and the preparation of reports which are always evaluated every month by superiors. During this time, both cashiers and administration record in the ledger. This of course causes various problems. Where the process of making reports takes a relatively long time, because the administration must first adjust the real stock at the place of business with the stock in the records until finally the difference between the two is found. One effort that can be made is to create an application that can help facilitate business process activities and minimize the occurrence of errors that could have a negative impact on the company's future. With this system, the data processing process from searching, adding, changing, to creating reports as evaluation material becomes easier and faster. The risk of data loss or damage can also be reduced to a minimum because it has been stored in the database, making it more effective and efficient. Future researchers are expected to add features for forecasting the items that are most and least desired by customers.

Aplikasi Akad Murabahah Pada Pembiayaan BSM Oto Di Bank Syariah Mandiri KCP Ponorogo

Murabahah contracts are one of the most dominant financing contracts used by banking practitioners. The ideal in murabahah transactions in banking is to require buying and selling transactions between the bank and the owner of the goods (supplier), and between the bank and the customer. However, in practice what occurs is a sale and purchase transaction between the supplier and the customer as evidenced by the BPKB or cover note issued by the goods provider. Here it is as if the bank only acts as a provider of funds for customers and its position is not as a buyer, but solely as a user of financing services provided by the bank. Based on the problems mentioned above, the author wants to examine in more depth the murabahah contract for Bank Syari'ah Mandiri financing to make it clearer. The objectives of this research are: (1) To determine the application of murabahah in BSM OTO financing at Bank Syariah Mandiri KCP Ponorogo ? (2) To find out the factors that become obstacles in implementing the murabahah contract for BSM OTO financing at Bank Syariah Mandiri KCP Ponorogo ?

On the optimization of green multimodal transportation: a case study of the West German canal system

AbstractIn this study, we address a biobjective multimodal routing problem that consists of selecting transportation modes and their respective quantities, optimizing transshipment locations, and allocating port orders. In the objective functions, we minimize total transportation costs and use the EcoTransit methodology to minimize total greenhouse gas emissions. The optimization model selects the transportation mode and transshipment port where quantities are transshipped from one mode to another. We compare inland waterway transportation and trucks encountering infrastructure failures that require rerouting or modal shifting in a real-life case study on the supply of goods for the chemical industry in the West German canal system. We propose a population-based heuristic to solve large instances in a reasonable computation time. A sensitivity analysis of demand, of varying lock times, and of infrastructure failure scenarios was conducted. We show that compared with inland waterway transportation, multimodal transportation reduces costs by 23% because of longer lock times. Our analysis shows that the use of inland waterway transportation only during infrastructure failures imposes nearly 28% higher costs per day depending on the failure location compared to that of the case of no failures. We also show that the use of a multimodal transportation system helps to reduce this cost increase in lock failure scenarios.

Historical Portrait of the Yakut Merchant of the 1st Guild N. D. Everstov

The article is devoted to the study of the economic and social-educational activities of the Yakut merchant of the 1st guild N. D. Everstov. The main purpose of the publication is to reconstruct the historical portrait of N. D. Everstov. The article used the methodology of the civilizational approach formulated by A. Toynbee. The topic has theoretical and applied relevance. The author determined the origin of N. D. Everstov and the original sources of capital accumulation. In 1894, Everstov was the first Yakut to become a merchant of the 1st guild. In 1900, the trading house “N. D. Everstov” was founded in Yakutsk. In 1901, Everstov was awarded the title of commerce advisor and honorary citizen. The article reveals that Everstov organized a wholesale fur trade and an extensive network of agents in the 1860–1870s, entered the fairs of Irbit and Nizhny Novgorod, and had an annual turnover of 200–800 thousand rubles. In 1867–1878 at auctions in Leipzig they sold more than 50 lots of furs, with a total value of 865 thousand rubles. Dynamics of trade with China in 1865–1878 amounted to 50–100 thousand rubles annually, average profit 700 thousand rubles. N. D. Everstov laid the foundations for bill lending to entrepreneurs in North-Eastern Siberia. In 1860–1879, the lending rate was 12–13 % per annum, the total amount of loans was more than 145 thousand rubles. In 1910–1911, the merchant organized a bank with an authorized capital of 50 thousand rubles. A social and educational activity of N. D. Everstov was expressed in the financing of educational institutions, churches, missionary societies of Yakutsk. In 1915, the state of N. D. Everstov was estimated at 1 million rubles. Everstov’s sons continued their father’s trading and financial activities but were unable to create a large enterprise. The Yakut merchant laid the foundations for conducting trade and financial business with large capital in North-Eastern Siberia, organized the wholesale supply of consumer goods to the population of the region through the ports of the Sea of Okhotsk, and formed the trade and transport infrastructure of the macro-region.
