US Firms Performance During Recessions: a Comparative Case Study

US firms performance during recessions: a comparative case study by Catherine Obiribea Ofori-Bah B.A., University of Ghana, 2017 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Agricultural Economics College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2020 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Vincent Amanor-Boadu Copyright © Catherine Obiribea Ofori-Bah 2020. Abstract With the majority of economists predicting that the US economy will experience a recession by 2021, it has become increasingly important to explore how well firms do during recessions. Improving understanding of firm characteristics that sustain performance during recessions could provide some learning from the strategies pursued by these firms that maintain their performance during recessions. The study is a case analysis of six US firms, four in the agri- food sector, and two in the technology sector. While numerous performance measures exist, the study intentionally uses return on sales as the performance measure of interest because of its unique characteristic of capturing firms’ current situation over which they have current control. Return on sales, defined as the ratio of net income to sales revenue in the current period, limits performance assessment to current results, allowing for the direct impact of recessions to be measured. The study theorizes that certain firms fare better than others because of their product mix. It also hypothesizes that return on sales as a performance indicator during recessions is determined by how well firms do with their assets and other financial resources. These are tested using 30 years of financial data from Wharton Research Data Services (WRDS), hosted by the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania.

Conagra Foods RDM, Inc. V. Comptroller of the Treasury, No

ConAgra Foods RDM, Inc. v. Comptroller of the Treasury, No. 1940, September Term, 2015. Opinion by Woodward, J. TAXATION – INCOME TAX – CORPORATION INCOME TAX – TAXATION OF NON-DOMICILIARY CORPORATION – CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS For a state to tax a non-domiciliary corporation, such taxation must withstand constitutional scrutiny under both the Due Process and Commerce Clauses of the United States Constitution. Although these clauses have different purposes and requirements, they have significant parallels. The Due Process Clause requires that (1) there be a minimal connection between the interstate activities of the non-domiciliary corporation and the taxing state, and (2) there be a rational relationship between the income attributed to the taxing state and the intrastate values of the enterprise being taxed. The Commerce Clause requires that the tax in question (1) apply to an activity with a substantial nexus with the taxing state, (2) be fairly apportioned, (3) not discriminate against interstate commerce, and (4) be fairly related to the services the taxing state provides. TAXATION – INCOME TAX – CORPORATION INCOME TAX – TAXATION OF NON-DOMICILIARY CORPORATION – CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS – LACK OF ECONOMIC SUBSTANCE AS A SEPARATE ENTITY In Gore Enter. Holdings, Inc. v. Comptroller, 437 Md. 492 (2014), the Court of Appeals held that the constitutional requirements for taxation of out-of-state wholly owned subsidiary corporations are satisfied where the subsidiaries “ha[ve] no real economic substance as separate business entities” from their parent corporations that do business in Maryland.
