I have found only a few studies based on China indicating that there is diminishing returns to environmental regulation in China. They measured such diminishing utility by including two variables related to level of environmental regulation: one variable indicating the level of regulation, and another squared term of the first variable. However, I failed to find any such study in the field of accounting and finance.
I would appreciate if someone can suggest any similar paper from the field of accounting and auditing.

 white water adventure recreation providers currently employ unofficial industry qualifications standards to show guide/leader competencies in the Kithulgala Adventure Based Camp. Very hard to find International Standards for guide competency exist.
New regulations have been proposed to regulate commercial white water rafting across Canada. These regulations will govern all aspects of commercial white water rafting, from equipments requirements to record keeping procedures. The impacts and influences of these regulations and how they are similar to and differ from the current standards, qualifications and policies practiced by white water rafting in the Kithulgala Adventure Based Camp is the main focus of this research.

Hi everyone, 
 if you have another paper on this topic please send to me..
I researched the impact of standards in fruit production. (GLOBALGAP, EUROGAP). The most important thing is to determine the position of the input attributes of determining the start of the implementation of standards. Measure the difference between input and output. The attributes you have to define itself.

I am doing data envelopment analysis using SBM model for my master thesis, but the results are different when I compare between Input and Output oriented SBM.
I have attached the excel file with results and data
SBMIV- Input oriented
SBMOV- Output oriented
What is the reason for these differences?
Relevant answer
This is because interpretation differs among assumptions. For example, if the efficiency score is 0.9 in output oriented model, the DMU could increase output in 10% using the same amount of inputs. In the other hand, if the input oriented score are 0.9, the DMU could reduce the use of input in (1-0.9)/0.9 (11.11%) producing the same amount of output. The scores will differs if you use variables or non-increasing returns. If you apply constant returns, they should be the same. You may read the follow paper for further details:

In must of, so call developed societies, there are important economic sectors which have been heavily regulated by state agencies, must of the them are because social, economic or environmental interests. In general, social security, infrastructure (energy, telecom, water, transportation, ports, airports, etc) as well as others activities related to environmental protection or education investments (Schools and Universities). So, how those regulations and particularly, the learning trajectory under those dynamic institutions set ups, are constraining or improving economic performance of the economy.  I understand democracy performance in a context where society goal is possible to be achieved under low social and transaction cost.Somehow it is very much to do with the way society solve conflicting issues regarding new expectations as for example, carbon neutrality or total renewable energy balance.
Please tell me if you have research theory, cases or ideas on how to face this relationship.

OECD provides general regulation indexes but they are of little help with measurment of regulation to the specific sector. I am particularly interested in tourism or service-related regulations that refer to businesses (not eg. environmental)
Relevant answer
Answer
A more "useful" or realistic measure would be to focus on the interaction between the businesses and the prevailing market structure:
1.Welfare consideration of regulation in terms of entry charges and taxes:
2.Looking at the transaction costs associated with regulation in a tourism context:
OR
4. At the consumer-market level, if we think of regulation as "anti-sharing economy" than some implications and debate worth considering are presented here related to sharing platforms and their impact on the tourism industry/accommodation sector:
Ultimately our predilection as economists is to look at the "efficiency of pricing" as a quantification. The question is what "price" should we focus on, and if there are distortions, how to discount in such a way as to unravel the "fundamentals".

Dear Stefano,
I, as well, have not heard anything concerning virtual currencies in Iceland and Finland. Though, with respect to the "social legitimacy" and "sovereignty" of such currencies, I did find this article to be of reputable assistance.

Answer
I agree with your(s) point of view that NRAhave to act in the frame of the EU energy policy. Regulatory rules in the EU have been focused on the efficient functioning and further development of the internal gas market. However, implementation and acceptance of the Third Energy Package pose new challenges to energy industry, particulary network energy (natural gas and power). For may opinion, the EU energy strategy which sets obligations for the EU Member Stats , (including Croatia), regarding the share of RES and schedule of their introduction, will certainly afect energy prices.
