Title: | Financial analysis of Palestinian industry including small scale firms | Authors: | Sabri, Nidal Rashid | Keywords: | Industrial organization - Palestine;Industry - Palestine - Economic aspects | Issue Date: | 1998 | Abstract: | The study aims to explore the financial aspects of the Palestinian industry, and to investigate productivity and efficiency of small scale industry compared with large scale firms. In order to help policy makers in industrial planning in the new emerged Palestinian state. A special instrument has been used to collect the financial and quantitative data for the related manufacturing firms from a random sample of 215 Palestinian firms. The one way analysis of variance test was used to examine whether the mean scores differ significantly among scale sizes of the Palestinian industry concerning the selected performance measures. In addition, the Scheffe test was used as a post hoc comparison way to identify which scale size firms' performance differs than the other two scale sizes. The research revealed that small scale firms in Palestinian industry have higher labor productivity values than large scale firms, while large scale firms accomplished higher net profit margin compared to small scale industry. Creating an additional job in large scale Palestinian industry needs less cost than creating a job in small scale industry, and large scale firms have the better opportunity in getting external financing than small firms. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11889/8240 |
