The Operation Efficiency Evaluation for Listed Companies of China Aviation Industry Based on DEA and Malmquist Index

The data envelopment analysis （DEA） is used to evaluate operation efficiency of 17 listed companies in China aviation industry from 2006 to 2011, and make longitudinal analysis for the operation efficiency. In addition, the reason of changing efficiency is dynamically evaluated by Malmquist productivity index. The empirical results show that average operation efficiency of 17 listed companies in China aviation industry is less than 1, which means that the operation activities of aviation industry exist diseconomies characteristic, technological progress efficiency is a major influenced factor

Evaluation of the Development Efficiency of Major Cities in the World Based on SBM Model and Malmquist Index

The major cities of every country and region in the world play an important role in the process of global development.The assessment of the development efficiency of these core cities can help governments better understand their role in globalization and provide some useful information for policy makers.This paper evaluates the development efficiency of 35 major cities around the world during the period 2011-2020.The data used is the Global City Power Index(GPCI)released by the Mori Foundation of Japan,which evaluates each city in a total of 70 indicators from six dimensions:economy,research development(R&D),cultural exchange,livability,environment and accessibility.The development efficiency of the 35 global major cities is evaluated by using data envelopment analysis(DEA)to divide the six dimensions into input and output indexes.The change of development efficiency of the 35 global core cities during 2011-2020 is studied by using Malmquist index.It is found that the absolute strength of each city is not necessarily related to its development efficiency,and the change of development efficiency is affected by both technological efficiency and technological progress.

Assessing Total Factor Productivity for Soybean Production in China Based on DEA-Malmquist Index: 2005-2017

The low and slowly increasing soybean yield restricts the development of soybean production. Accurate measures of total factor productivity (TFP) for soybean production can be helpful in identifying conditions, institutions or policies that promote soybean production development in China. In this paper, TFP growth for soybean production was estimated for a panel data of 10 major soybean producing provinces from 2005 to 2017. Results reveal that TFP grew at an average rate of 1.3% over the whole period, with technical progress contributing 2.3% and efficiency change providing the other -1.0%. The change of TFP for soybean production over that time, whether increase or decline, was mainly derived by technical change except in three years (2005-2007). Positive TFP growth in the provinces of Liaoning and Inner Mongolia, and negative TFP growth in Hebei and Anhui were mainly driven by efficiency change, specifically scale efficiency change except pure technical efficiency in Liaoning.

Analysis of Maize Production Efficiency Based on DEA-Malmquist Indexes: A Case Study of Henan Province

In order to improve the production efficiency of maize in Henan, China, the HP (High-Pass) filter method is used to obtain the maize trend yield. Secondly, the Malmquist index method is used to analyze the changes of TFP (Total Factor Productivity) of maize in 18 cities in Henan Province in the past 11 years. Finally, the amount of slack in maize input and output is analyzed. The results show that the research and development level of advanced technology of maize production in Henan Province has been improved to some extent in recent years;the advanced technology in various regions has not been fully promoted and utilized;there is a certain degree of relaxation in the input of various elements of maize;the resource allocation is unreasonable, and there is a certain amount of space for saving.

Performance Analysis of Listed Companies in the UAE-Using DEA Malmquist Index Approach

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is becoming an increasingly popular tool for assessing the relative performance of industries and companies. By applying DEA theory to the non-financial sector, the relative efficiency of 27 listed corporations in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has been analyzed in this paper. The focus of the study has been on the impact of the financial crisis and the recovery thereafter. Further, the productivity change was decomposed into technical efficiency change and technological change by using the non-parametric Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) over the period from 2007 to 2014. Based on Malmquist analysis, we find that the most efficient industries during the post-crisis period were food and beverages, telecommunication and pharmaceuticals. In contrast, the sectors that were adversely affected by the crisis were services, real estate, construction and cements. The break-up of the TFP indicated that the efficiency indices in the top performing industries were driven by technological improvements or frontier effects. The top-performing companies in the UAE during the 2007-14 period demonstrated innovation-led growth, aided by the use of better technology, investments in capital equipment, and adoption of new production processes.

Using Malmquist Index Approach to Measure Productivity Change of a Jordanian Company for Plastic Industries

Measurement of a production unit-performance is crucial in determining whether it has achieved its objectives or not, and it generates a phase of management process that consists of feedback motivation phases. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the growth potentials of five production machines in a Jordanian company for plastic industries by employing the non-parametric Malmquist productivity index (MPI) over the period from February to July 2014 in both day and night shifts. The productivity change is decomposed into technical efficiency change (TEC) and technological change (TC). Inefficiency values are observed in each period. The percentage of input utilization is determined in all periods. Then, the Malmquist productivity index (MPI) values are calculated for all periods. Finally, comparisons of TEC, TC and MPI are conducted among the five machines and between the day and night shifts for each machine. The MPI results indicate that the needs for internal training, effective operating procedures, and enhancing quality procedures are required to increase the technical efficiency. On the other hand, figuring out more efficient ways of making existing products allowing output to grow at a faster rate than economic inputs, like using new technologies, will increase technological change. In conclusions, Malmquist model analysis shall provide valuable reference information to management when evaluating the progress in the performances of production machines in plastic industry.

科学评估养老机构服务效率是优化养老资源配置和完善养老服务体系建设的基础。以我国29个省(区、市)为研究对象,基于2018—2022年《中国民政统计年鉴》和《中国统计年鉴》的数据,运用三阶段DEA模型和Malmquist指数模型,对养老机构服务的静态与动态效率测度进行分析。研究表明,养老机构服务效率逐年提升,但仍有改善空间。综合技术效率均值由0.794下降到0.726,受到外部环境因素的影响;技术进步是制约养老机构服务效率的主要原因。因此,要调整投入生产规模,重视环境因素影响,实施差异化的效率提升策略,以技术进步为发展重心,进而提高养老机构服务效率。

基于DEA-Malmquist指数模型风电企业融资效率研究

风电产业作为国家战略性新兴产业,对经济发展和环境保护具有举足轻重的地位。近10年来,在国家政策的大力推动下,该行业发展迅速。但是,自疫情爆发以来,国内的很多风电企业都面临着生存危机,随着后疫情时代的到来,中国风电行业面临新的机遇与挑战,更在技术经济和融资方面出现了新问题,制约了其发展。本文采用DEA-Malmquist模型,对风电行业的17家企业进行静态及动态融资效率分析。研究结果表明,规模效率和纯技术效率是制约风电企业融资效率提升的主要因素。同时,结合Malmquist指数模型发现,技术进步指数对融资效率的提升具有显著影响。根据上述分析结果,为风电企业融资效率的提升提出具体的建议和意见,为风电企业解决融资问题提供参考。

基于三阶段DEA-Malmquist指数模型的“十三五”时期新疆畜牧业经济发展效率特征

为了测算和提高新疆畜牧业经济发展效率,采用三阶段DEA-Malmquist指数模型,对“十三五”时期新疆14个地(州、市)畜牧业经济发展水平进行投入产出效率分析。结果表明,从静态分析来看,只有伊犁州直属县(市)在“十三五”时期的规模报酬不变,呈DEA有效;其他地区由于规模效率或纯技术效率下降导致综合技术效率呈DEA无效,规模大多递增。从动态分析来看,“十三五”时期Malmquist指数小于1.000,表明新疆畜牧业经济效率呈下降趋势,且技术进步的变动是阻碍畜牧业经济效率提升的主要原因。应加强技术管理力度,以新型牧业经营主体为导向,提高优化资源配置效率的能力;加强草原保护建设,推行适度规模。效率水平高的地区应保持畜牧业经济发展优势,进行技术推广;效率水平低的地区需从政策、登记体系、基础配套设施建设、人才、技术等方面加大投入。

2007—2020年黄河流域农业灌溉用水效率——基于3阶段DEA模型和Malmquist指数

为使黄河流域农业灌溉水资源得到合理利用,采用3阶段DEA模型和Malmquist指数方法,分析2007—2020年黄河流域各省区在剔除外部环境影响因素下的实际农业灌溉用水效率。结果表明:1)黄河流域农业灌溉用水效率低下主要受制于经济水平和水资源禀赋,尽管政府的重视对其效率具有一定的促进作用,但效果不显著。2)在消除外部影响因素后,2007—2020年黄河流域灌溉用水的纯技术效率平均值被低估(0.931),综合技术效率平均值(0.733)和规模效率平均值(0.792)被高估。在省域尺度上,除河南省农业灌溉用水效率位于有效前沿面外,其余省区的农业灌溉用水投入均未得到有效利用。3)通过Malmquist指数分析发现,2007—2020年黄河流域农业灌溉用水效率整体呈波动上升趋势,平均增长率为10.3%。其中,技术进步变化>1,规模效率变化与Mamquist指数变化趋势相似。综上,黄河流域应在灌溉技术水平较高的基础上高度重视农业灌溉用水中规模效率的潜力,以进一步提升灌溉用水效率。
