Abstract Council For Economic And Development Executive Yuan established a new land-use scheme in National Comprehensive Development Plan on the purpose of preventing the resource depletion and environmental disasters resulting from improper land-use activities. In the land-use scheme the land resources are identified as ¡¥developable areas¡¦ and ¡¥restricted areas¡¦ according to their importance and fragility. The restricted areas are imposed strict land-use regulations for the purposes of resources conservation and preservation. Thus, this research worked on the bases of the regulated¡¦s opinions. This research starts with discussing the regulation policy theory, the literature on the theory of property rights and a conceptual framework for determining whether the invaded land property rights should be compensated, and for suggesting how to compensate if the compensation is required. Finally, this research applied the framework to the Shoushen National Park to discuss whether the land property rights invaded by the regulations should be compensated and what kind of compensation would be appropriated.

Thesis Statement Dated on June 27th, 2001 "(Financial Holding Company Act) has completed the legislative procedures. New-style financial holdings companies have initiated a new era of competition and cooperation. Under this circumstance, for the sake of survival, apart from innovating new financial products, security companies take proactive approaches in the direction of full-scope financial planning. These new financial products include stock trading in Taiwan, futures, stock options, other derivative instruments like bonds, consignments, insurance deputy, and duplicated-brokerage offshore trading. To respond to the above changes, in parallel, sales force in security companies is forced to change their roles from single-product market maker to the full-scope financial advisor. To promote and sell various financial products simultaneously, the sales force is required to quickly learn the relevant knowledge of various newly invented products, related rules and regulations, and risk management. This paper adopts the attempt to understand the impact on the sales force under the circumstances of cross selling of various products. It discusses the relationship of satisfaction of employee compensation, benefits and training, to employees¡¦ work devotion. It further examines the differentiation and interconnection of various factors above. In terms of research approach, I took employees in local securities company as samples. By extracting information from 272 valid questionnaires out of a total of 280, various analyses are conducted with SPSS software, including creditability, Pearson, ANOVA and regressive analysis, to ultimately test the assumption of this research. The results of the paper is summarized as below 1. Significant positive relationship between awareness of compensation/benefit satisfaction and work devotion of cross selling sales force 2. Significant positive relationship between sales training and work devotion of cross selling sales force 3. Significant positive relationship between work devotion and work performance of cross selling sales force 4. Significant positive relationship between awareness of compensation and benefit satisfaction and performance in cross selling sales force 5. Significant positive relationship between training and work performance of cross selling sales force 6. Academic background plays an important role of differentiation in training for cross selling sales force Key words: cross selling, work devotion, training, compensation and benefits satisfaction, work performance

The management of Human Resources is concerning on the issue of employee retention following a merge and acquisition. This study focused on the effects of employee retention and how the Human Resources Department adjusts their salary following a merge and acquisition. Individual case study is used as the methodology of this study and the research subject is Winteck Corporation, which merges and acquires with HannStar LTD. (Yang-Mei 1st and 2nd Factory). Subsequently, the study will use both organizations¡¦ staff financial data such as their annual income, salary structure and benefits, enterprise system, and the corporate culture to do the analysis and comparison. In addition, the discussions had been made about how the salary system adjustment of Winteck Corporation affected the employee retention and the methods found are as following, using the team performance as the standard assessment for the adjustment of original factory employees¡¦ salary, and authorized supervisors to adjust the salary according to employees¡¦ performance. Overall, there is a standard method for the company to select, train and utilize the talented employees as well as to retain employees after a merge and acquisition. Select the employees based on their capability; train the employees after a merge and acquisition as well as clam down their unstable emotion; utilize their professional skills and experiences into the new organization after a merge and acquisition; retaining the employees by paying the original salary while their job structure, position, benefits, and so on are based on the Winteck Corporation. The advantages following a merge and acquisition: 2. upgrade the quality of employees; 3. higher rate for employee retention; 1. increase the production of new products.Discussions: 1. how to develop a standard structure of the salary system following a merge and acquisition; 2. the proposal of salary system for employee retention in the original factory following a merge and acquisition.

<p>The results obtained from this research indicates that there is no statistical relation between the chosen financial variables and the total compensation to the CEO, except sales.</p><p>CEO compensation is a highly debated subject in Sweden. The debate concerns whether or not CEOs are paid too much in relation to their results. This research investigates what decides the CEO compensation. Can the CEO compensation be explained by the financial variables ROA, ROE, Sales, Tobin’s q, and the size of the largest shareholder?</p><p>In this paper companies listed on the Swedish Stock Exchange OMX Stockholm large and mid cap during the years 2003 to 2008 are analyzed by empirically and theoretically adapted models.</p>

This study examines the existence of pay-performance sensitivity in total compensation and bonus during the financial crisis, using data between 2007-2010 from Swedish 196 listed firms. We perform panel data regression analysis of CEO compensation on financial performance measured as stock returns. Our results indicate that there is, although not significant, a weak positive relationship between CEO compensation and firm performance during 2007-2010. However during 2009-2010 in a market state defined as post-crisis we find weak negative pay-performance sensitivity at a significance level of 10 %. Nevertheless, as regards to the bonus paid to executives there was a significantly positive relationship relative bonus % and firm performance. These results contribute to our understanding of the pay-performance sensitivity in times of financial disturbance, highly relevant to the existing debate considering CEO compensation.

The problem of heavy material and radiative losses in plasmonic devices has held back their implementation for compact and high-speed data storage and interconnects. One of the most interesting solutions to this problem currently under exploration is the addition of a gain material in close proximity to the metallic nanostructures for loss compensation. Here the physics of light transport in a nanoparticle array, and the operation of gain media in contact with the structure, are described and analytically modeled. A two-dimensional array of closely spaced gold nanoparticles has been fabricated by focused ion beam milling, and its electromagnetic response in the presence or absence of a dye coating has been simulated in preparation for pump-probe optical testing. The compensation of losses via a fluorophore coating has been proven for the first time in this geometry, for a physically realized sample. / text
