On the bias of yield-based capital budgeting methods [PDF]
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we present a new capital budgeting method, called the real rate of return (RRR), which has been developed for solving the inconsistency of the modified internal rate of return (MIRR) with shareholders' wealth ...

Ion Concentration and Voltage Imaging With Fluorescent Nanodiamonds
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We demonstrate reversible switching between the fluorescent NV0 and the dark NV+ state, in sub‐30 nm FNDs via surface oxidation and hydrogenation, respectively. In an electrochemical cell, we show that the fluorescence from hydrogenated particles enables all‐optical imaging of voltages and ion concentrations at the micrometer scale.

The Australian Budgeting System: On the Cusp of Change [PDF]
Australia in the late 1990 adopted a purchaser-provider model of performance budgeting – so-called “accrual output budgeting” – which attracted considerable international interest. By 2003, however, the system was in headlong retreat. This paper examines

A qualitative appraisal of stakeholder reactions to a tool for burden of disease-based health system budgeting in Ghana [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: In 2010, the Ghana Health Service launched a program of cooperation with the Tanzania Ministry of Health and Social Welfare that was designed to adapt Tanzania's PLANREP budgeting and reporting tool to Ghana's primary health care program. The

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Water harvesting, radiative cooling, and interfacial solar evaporation are fundamentally governed by coupled heat, mass, and light transport processes. These processes are mediated by pore architecture, including pore size, connectivity, and hierarchical organization.

The Development of Positive Budgetary Theory within the UK Hotel Industry [PDF]
Previous applied empirical research is limited. This research builds a bridge between management accounting 'normative theory' and current practice, through the development of 'positive budgetary theory'.

Corporate Capital Budgeting Decisions and Information Sharing [PDF]
Firms must overcome agency and information asymmetry problems to make efficient corporate capital budgeting decisions; this is particularly true for firms with multiple units dispersed across geographic locations.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Intrinsic material dynamics are harnessed as computational resources for neuromorphic in‐materio physical reservoir computing. Defects, ionic motion, interfaces, percolation, geometry, and biasing shape transient states that provide fading memory, nonlinearity, and high‐dimensional projection for simple readout. A descriptor‐to‐dynamics framework links
