Analysis of Factors Affecting Consumer's Decision in Choosing the Digital Fund Wallet

This study aims to determine the effect of price, reference groups, and security on consumer decisions in choosing digital fund wallets on three campuses in Jakarta. This study used a sample of 100 respondents and the sampling technique used a simple random sampling technique. The data collection technique used a questionnaire of 43 question items which were assessed on a Likert scale of 1-5 and tested for validity and reliability. The analytical method use, regression analysis, correlation, the test of the coefficient of determination (R2), and t-test. Based on the regression analysis at a significant level of 5%, it shows (1) there is a positive and significant effect of price on consumer decisions in choosing a digital fund wallet, with a rx1y correlation of 0.678; the coefficient of determination R2x1y of 0.460; and sig value 0.000 < 0.05; (2) there is a positive and significant influence of the reference group on consumer decisions in choosing a digital fund wallet, with a rx2y correlation of 0.607; the coefficient of determination R2x2y is 0.368; and sig value 0.000 <0.05; (3) there is a positive and significant security effect on consumer decisions in choosing a digital fund wallet, with a rx3y correlation of 0.746; the coefficient of determination R2x3y of 0.556; and sig value 0.000 < 0.05.

Anchoring on Historical High Prices and Seasoned Equity Offerings

We document that firms’ financing decisions are affected by historical high prices. The ratio of the monthly high price to the 12-month historical high price positively affects the probability of a seasoned equity offering (SEO). Furthermore, the postannouncement market reaction is muted and the offering discount is smaller if the preannouncement stock price is high relative to its historical high price. The results suggest that historical high price reference points may help managers rationally time SEOs to take advantage of market reception and minimize issuance costs.

Green Premium Evidence from Climatic Areas: A Case in Southern Europe, Alicante (Spain)

The existence of a green premium in house (asking) prices in Alicante province, Spain, are analyzed using circa 9000 property observations. In developing the sample, information from energy efficiency certificates was matched with two other databases. The model tests for green premium by climatic zones using pool Ordinary Least Squares (pool-OLS) and Instrumental Variables (IV) hedonic models, adds new knowledge concerning the existence of green premiums from Southern Europe, explores differences in their estimation by climatic zone, debates the nature of the estimated green parameters, and explains the role of endogeneity in hedonic green premium models. The empirical evidence assesses the sensitivity of asking price to either energy consumption (KWh) or carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) with an apparent premium of 3%, and captures an association with efficiency rating from G to F of 1.8% and from F to E of 1.1%. Significantly, the results relating to price responses show a distinct variation between the coast and the cooler climatic zone of the interior. The paper shows that energy efficiency incentive policies should discriminate by climatic areas, and provides a price reference by which to assess the amount of incentives needed to achieve European Union (EU) objectives.
