The study investigated the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that influence the online purchasing behavior of Chinese millennials. A cohort of university students from selected parts of the Jiangsu province provided the sample of study. Consistent with the extant literature, the research confirms that millenials are influenced by several external factors, demographic factors, personal characteristics, and vendor/service/product characteristics and websites qualities when buying online. The economic, socio-cultural, technological, and legal considerations where the main external factors that influences online shopping behavior of Chinese millenials, internet knowledge, concern for security, need specificity and disposition to trust were the main personal characteristics identified. The study also found significant association between vendor services such as real existence of the store, store reputation, store size, reliability, assurance (seals, warranties, news clips) and use of testimonials/reference have association with millennials’ purchasing intention.

Title A name given to the resource Determinants of Students Utilisation of Computer Information Retrieval System in Academic Libraries: Evidence from Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Acheampong, Li Zhiwen, Ruhiya Abubakar, Henry Asante, Michael Owusu Akomeah Antwi Description An account of the resource A number of educational institutions and libraries have established computerized information retrieval systems (CIRS) to help students to easily identify resources for their academic pursuit. The study investigates and retests the Unified Theory of Adoption and Use of Technology as a model for explaining technology (UTAUT) use among library users in the University of Ghana (UG). A questionnaire with 31 items based on the UTAUT study of (Venkatesh et al. 2003) and analysed on a 7 point Likert Scale was distributed to students using the Balme Library–University of Ghana. The results reveal that many students judge their ability to use the computer information retrieval system to accomplish the specified task as poor due to nonfamiliarity with the system. It is noted that a lot of students also doubt the ability of the system to provide the required responses they are looking for. This may be due to misconceptions from previous experiences or information gained from other people who have not been successful in using the information retrieval system. The study recommends that the Library incorporates the basic skills of interacting with the CIRS in its orientation programme to give students an acceptable perception of the CIRS.

Title A name given to the resource Entrepreneurial orientation, social media and SME performance: an emerging economy perspective Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Amfo Anim, Emmanuel Arthur, George Kofi Amoako Description An account of the resource Purpose This study examines the role of social media adoption (SMA), opportunity recognition (OR) and opportunity exploitation (OE) in mediating the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and the performance of newly established small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in emerging economies, with a particular emphasis on Ghana. Design/methodology/approach This study adopts a post-positivist philosophical stance and uses a quantitative approach and a survey design. A purposive sampling technique was used to select 336 SME owners and managers from Ghana’s manufacturing, trading and service sectors. Questionnaires were administered to source the empirical data for this study. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to analyse the proposed hypotheses. Findings The results reveal that EO positively and significantly influences the performance of new-born SMEs. SMA, OR and OE partially mediated this relationship. Practical implications This study is a wakeup call to policymakers, practitioners, managers and owners of recently established businesses. Policymakers should provide support and resources for newly established SMEs to adopt effective social media marketing strategies, bolstering their online presence and customer engagement. Simultaneously, they should invest in entrepreneurship education and create an environment conducive to innovation to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset among fresh SMEs. Business owners and managers should proactively monitor market trends and consumer preferences, adapting their strategies to identifying and seizing emerging opportunities. Originality/value This study introduces a significant novelty to previous literature and one of the first to employ the dynamic capability theory to examine the interplay between EO, SMA, OR and OE in influencing the performance of new SMEs in the context of emerging markets. Furthermore, it extends the scope of understanding of the mechanisms through which SMEs can prosper in these dynamic environments. This unique combination of theoretical framework, comprehensive variables and contextual focus sets this study apart from existing research, enriching the literature on SME performance in emerging markets.

Title A name given to the resource Effects of capital structure choice on profitability of oil marketing companies in Ghana (OMCs): case studies of Ghana Oil Company limited and total petroleum Ghana limited Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Baah-Acquah, Emmanuel Freeman, Ebenezer Perry Ellis Description An account of the resource Capital structure is actually a mix of different securities. The importance of capital structure cannot be over emphasized since it impacts on firm’s value. Capital structure choices have had significant impacts on shareholders wealth. The study investigated the impact of capital structure on the profitability of Oil Marketing Companies (OMC’s). With regards to the firm’s capital structure, the study employed short-term debt to total capital, long-term debt to total capital and total debt to total capital in comparison with return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and net profit margin (NPM). The study employed secondary data and the data was analysed using multiple regressions. The result reveals that short term debt to total capital, long term debt to total capital, total debt to total capital, firm size, and sales growth, have varying and mixed relationships with profitability in terms of return on asset, and return on equity of the Oil Marketing Companies (OMC’s). The study recommend that companies implement due diligence in considering debt financing decisions, to come out with the best possible financing blend which will maximize profitability for their companies.

Title A name given to the resource Relationship between capital structure and profitability of oil marketing companies (OMCs) Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Baah-Acquah, Emmanuel Freeman, Ebenezer Perry Ellis Description An account of the resource The study investigated the relationship connecting capital structure and profitability of two listed firms on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) from the year 2010 to 2014. With regards to the firm’s capital structure, the study employed short-term debt to total capital, long-term debt to total capital and total debt to total capital in comparison with return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and net profit margin (NPM). The mixed method was used to capture both qualitative and quantitative data. The study employed both primary and secondary data and the data was analyzed using multiple regressions. The outcome from the review demonstrates that increments in short term debts and long term obligation influences the execution of the oil marketing companies. The suggestion is that managers ought to ensure that they recognize and keep up the ideal capital structure level to augment the organization's profit base.

Title A name given to the resource Harnessing electronic procurement to support efficient supply chain in Ghana’s health sector: a position paper Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Patrick Boateng Sarpong, Du Jianguo, HSUD Khan, Patrick Acheampong Description An account of the resource Public procurement is a central instrument to assist the efficient management of public resources. It supports the works and services of the government and can cover all acquisitions, including stationery, furniture, and temporary office staff as complex and high cost areas such as construction projects, aircraft carriers, and other private financial initiative projects. Similar to many other processes of ICT-enabled innovation, the introduction of e-procurement involves significant changes at the organizational level, arouses power struggles, challenges well-established supply networks, and implies modifications in culture and habits. This review critically reviews, the intricate issues involved electronic procurement system adoption, antecedents, prospects and challenges. A position is then presented on how these benefits can be harnessed and optimised efficiently to support healthcare supply chain management in Ghana.
