This will be done by analyzing the volume of stocks traded, number of listed companies, direct investment, employment and government revenue of Hongkong , the United Kingdom and Australia, countries which have already unified their stock exchanges. The empirical results show that unification has the greatest impact on the volume of stocks traded. Its impact on the other aspects, however, is difficult to gauge for different outcomes were observed in the countries studied. Nevertheless, it can not be said that unification has no bearing on the said aspects since other factors, like the political, social and economic conditions prevailing in the country, government policies and interest rates also affect these points. These factors may have offset the impact of unification on the aspects mentioned above. Thus, these other factors should be considered in in analyzing the effects of unification on the Philippines. In this regard, it could be said that the unification of the Manila and Makati stock exchanges would be beneficial to the country, with the current economic reforms which the government is now undertaking.Item Restricted Macroeconomic factors and the phisix: A study on the determinants in the movement of the phisix(2000-10-18) Girado, Jane Louie; Sevilla, Denise AvnItem Restricted The economics of separation(2000-05) Atienza, Rocelyn Lontoc; Belmonte, Ara Kristine Fernandez; Natividad-Carlos, Fidelina B.Item Restricted Cost-benefit analysis of MBA versus MA in economics in the University of the Philippines(1995-03) Buenviaje, Leah Emma C.; Castillo, Michelle Marie A.; Mendoza, Maria Nimfa F.The cost-benefit analysis of obtaining a degree in Masters in Business Administration versus Master of Arts in Economics is one method of assessing the quantitative and qualitative returns of investing in higher education. This can be accomplished through the application of the net present value, internal rate of return and comparative analysis of the psychic benefits. In so doing, the substantial differences between the two programs will be ascertained and at the same time, there will be an evaluation as to what masters degree is more favorable. Further analysis will also be conducted regarding the advantages of being a graduate degree holder relative to undergraduate students in terms of job opportunities and career advancement.

Yet of late metropolitan areas have become increasingly multicentric, the monocentric model has been scrutinized on various grounds. This paper attempts to probe the important assumption used in many monocentric models -- particularly that employment location is exogenous to population location within an urban area. Working with data on population and employment changes in the seventeen municipalities/ cities of Metro Manila, this work shows that employment changes are endogenous to the population change in a surrounding labor market. This recommends that urban models should focus more on the problem of employment location within metropolitan areas.
