The benefits of applying controlling in Hungarian small and medium enterprises
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Hagen,   Istvan Zsombor.
The issue of optimal company size as well as related efficiency issues have always been a great dilemma for scientists and professionals alike.

This paper uses original firm-level survey data on a cluster of small- and medium-scale leather tanneries in Leon, Guanajuato -Mexico's leather capital-to econometrically identify the factors that drive the adoption of two clean tanning technologies. Using a multivariate probit model to estimate a system of seemingly unrelated regressions, we find-in contrast to conventional wisdom-that neither firm...
