CONSTITUENTS OF APPLYING THE TARGET COST AND VALUE ANALYSIS AS TOOLS TO REDUCE COSTS IN THE INDUSTRIAL ESTABLISHMENTS OF THE CONDOR COMPLEX

Hicham Amjouj — 2025-05-30

This study aims to examine the extent to which the necessary conditions for implementing target costing and value analysis methodologies are present in institutions operating within the Condor Complex, given the critical role these approaches play in cost reduction and enhancing organizational competitiveness. Additionally, the study seeks to identify potential challenges that may hinder their implementation. To achieve these objectives, data were collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS Version 23 to test the hypotheses and derive relevant findings. The results indicated a general lack of interest among institutions within the Condor Complex in adopting target costing and value analysis methodologies. This reluctance is primarily attributed to unfavorable economic conditions that discourage the use of modern cost management techniques. Nevertheless, the study identified certain enabling factors that could support the adoption of target costing in specific institutions within the complex to help reduce costs.

FISH FARMING PROJECTS AROUND THE WORLD: A PRESENTATION OF SELECTED STATISTICS FROM THE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANISATION (FAO), 2022 REPORT

Noual Chine — 2025-05-16

This paper aims to shed light on one of the most significant food-related projects: fish farming. Its importance is evident both at the individual level, by providing high nutritional value, and at the national level, through its contribution to economic and social development (food security, self-sufficiency, etc.). It also offers profitability for institutions operating within a market that is flourishing daily. The Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) has emphasised the importance of investing in this sector. Accordingly, this paper presents key statistics from the FAO's 2022 report. The findings indicate that fish farming production reached an estimated 120 million tonnes in 2020, a remarkable increase considering that the activity was once marginal and only began to develop from 1985 onwards. China leads in global production, accounting for more than 50%. Regionally, Asia ranks first in terms of global output, followed by Africa and Europe. Egypt is Africa's largest fish farming producer, contributing approximately 3% of global production. It is hoped that Algeria will increase its investment in this sector to achieve food security, particularly given its vast potential and capacity to take a leading position.

Nijat Hamza oglu Muradov — 2025-06-16

The agricultural sector is characterized by a number of specific features. First of all, reforms in this area are accompanied by instability of production. Many circumstances, such as climatic fluctuations, inflation rate, credit-price growth, decrease in purchasing power, significant reduction in state support for agriculture and the entire agro-industrial complex, increase in debts of agricultural producers and industrial enterprises producing means of production necessary for agriculture and agricultural producers, etc., affect the financial security of agricultural enterprises to one degree or another. In conditions of market relations, financial security, financial stability, financial security act as an important component for economically independent enterprises. Taking all this into account, the article approaches financing as the main condition for sustainable development of the agricultural sector. The author studies the experiences of Latvia, China, and Britain and makes proposals on financing directions to ensure sustainable development of the agricultural sector. The article analyzes the interaction of sustainable development and the agricultural sector, the needs arising from the goals of sustainable development, and argues that access to financial resources is a necessary condition for sustainable development. According to the author, sustainable development requires adequate financial support, and financing should be organized in accordance with the specialization of the agricultural sector, the characteristics of the region and the soil.

Arif Abderazak — 2025-05-08

As a result of the growing interest in external economic partnerships, represented by various agreements concluded by the Algerian state with its foreign counterparts, it has become crucial to keep pace with developments in international accounting standards to attract foreign investors. This objective is pursued through the innovations introduced by the Financial Accounting System, particularly in concepts that were either previously absent or amended within the Statement of Financial Position. These developments have made the system's outputs, represented by various financial statements whose preparation and presentation are mandated, responsive to stakeholders' expectations, facilitating proper understanding and analysis to achieve high accuracy in investment decision-making.This research paper addresses and focuses on the innovations introduced into the Statement of Financial Position regarding the presentation method and content. The statement now includes a wealth of information that is beneficial to financial information users.

EXCHANGE RATE PASS-THROUGH AND INFLATION DYNAMICS IN ALGERIA: A VECTOR AUTOREGRESSION ANALYSIS OF SHORT- AND LONG-TERM EFFECTS

Abdesselam Hellal — 2025-05-15

This study investigates the bidirectional and time-varying interplay between exchange‐rate movements and inflation in Algeria from 1990 to 2023. Employing a Vector Autoregression (VAR) framework on quarterly time-series data, it quantifies how exchange-rate shocks transmit into price levels and, conversely, how unexpected inflationary episodes feed back into currency valuation. The analysis also controls for key external and policy-related drivers—namely, global oil prices and domestic monetary‐policy interventions—to isolate each variable’s independent effects.
Empirical findings reveal a significant, though transitory, pass-through mechanism: a depreciation of the Algerian dinar leads to a marked uptick in inflation over subsequent quarters, while positive inflation shocks exert downward pressure on the dinar’s real exchange rate. However, long-run causality between the two series remains inconclusive, suggesting that neither variable unilaterally dictates the other over extended horizons.
Based on these insights, the study recommends adopting an explicit inflation-targeting regime, deepening and liberalizing the foreign-exchange market, and enhancing policy transparency. It further advocates diversifying government revenues and strengthening the investment climate, alongside continuous monitoring of macroeconomic indicators to support timely policy adjustments.

THE POWER OF CULTURE AND TECH: TRANSFORMING ACCOUNTING INFORMATION SYSTEMS

Afriani Afriani — 2025-05-30

The quality of accounting information systems is essential for accurate financial reporting and effective decision-making. As information technology advances, organizations require more integrated and efficient accounting systems. Organizational culture and information technology play a crucial role in improving transaction processing and system integration. However, a lack of integration often results in untimely reporting and poor-quality accounting information systems, affecting organizational efficiency. This study investigates the impact of organizational culture and information technology on the quality of accounting information systems. Organizational culture, including innovation, staff relationships, and organizational identity, shapes the effectiveness of accounting systems. Meanwhile, information technology enhances integration, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of financial data. Despite these advantages, many organizations still face challenges in optimizing their accounting information systems. Using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS), this research examines employees from Maranatha Christian University, Bandung, with simple random sampling as the data collection method. Findings indicate that organizational culture (X1) and information technology (X2) significantly influence the quality of accounting information systems (Y1) across business organizations, educational institutions, and government agencies. This study contributes to a better understanding of how organizations can develop a culture that supports the efficient use of information technology to enhance accounting information systems. The results provide valuable insights for management to implement strategies that improve financial data quality, leading to better decision-making and operational effectiveness.
