    AHFME Academic Member 2008 Total Annual Earnings Survey
    (2009-01-01) Schmidgall, Raymond S.
    This study was conducted to determine the 2008 annual earnings of hospitality financial management educators. Forty-seven percent of AHFME’s members affiliated with educational institutions responded. Annual base salaries ranged from $60,000 to $210,000. The lowest paid member is an assistant professor while the highest paid member is a full professor. Many respondents supplement their base salaries by both teaching during summer school and consulting. The total annual earnings of members ranged from $63,000 to $416,000. Hospitality financial management educators appear to be more highly compensated than the average college professor.

    Effects of Changes in Economic Circumstances on Agency Relationships in the Appraisal Process, 1980-1997
    (1999) Dalbor, Michael C.; Andrew, William P.
    The purpose of this study is to examine economic circumstances which motivated principals in the hotel appraisal process to influence appraised hotel values. The economiccircumstances are the background in which appraisals are completed and may be germane to the issue of appraisal accuracy. The study outlines the relationships in the process and examines the specific circumstances that may have motivated the parties to influence appraised values to be different than market values. Moreover, it provides a basis for further research and empirical tests of these relationships.

    How Did Different Restaurant Segments Perform Differently through the Recession? An ARIMA with Intervention Analysis on US Restaurant Stock Indices
    (2013-04-01) Zheng, Tianshu; Farrish, John; Wang, Xiaofan
    This study attempted to identify, quantify, and explain the possible impact the recession had on restaurant stock performance in comparison with the S&P 500 index using Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) with Intervention analysis approach and t-tests. Based on the North American Industry Classification System, limited-service (NAICS code 722211) and full-service restaurant segments (NAICS code722110) were examined. The results of this study suggest that the limited-service restaurant segment was recession-proof and its stock index outperformed that of both the full-service restaurant segment and the S&P 500 index. The findings of this study will not only provide the industry and investors with empirical evidence of restaurant performance during and after the recession; but also fill the gap of literature by applying ARIMA with Intervention Analysis in identifying the lag time of impact an event has on time series in hospitality related research.

    The Effects of Asset Growth to the Cross-Section of Hospitality Stock Returns
    (2011-07-01) Kizildag, Murat; Goh, Ben K.
    This study aims to estimate the effects of hospitality firm’s asset growth (year-on-year percentage change in total assets) to cross-section of stock returns by exploring the univariate relations between market value equity (ME), book-to-market equity (B/ME), and beta (β) over the period of 1999-2009. By utilizing the two-pass cross-sectional regression methodology, this paper uncovers the roles of ME, B/ME, β, and the effect of asset growth on returns in the analysis of the cross-sectional stock return behavior. The results of this study are expected to provide a broad outlook for the major segments of the hospitality industry (hotel, restaurant, and airline firms) for their strategic asset investment and disinvestment decisions. For instance, the findings of this study are believed to (1) establish fundamental grounds for asset expansion strategies (mergers & acquisitions, bank loan initiations, public equity offerings, etc.), asset contraction policies (share repurchases, spinoffs, stock splits, dividend initiations etc.), and optimal asset allocation in their portfolio management for their shareholders and (2) demonstrate any abnormal stock returns – high and low – followed by these corporate events. Furthermore, the effects of asset growth associated with ME, B/ME, and β in cross-section stock returns analysis are evidenced by many scholars as both economically and statistically significant predictor of the cross-section of U.S. stock returns since the early 1960s. Hence, we conjecture that the results of this study should help understand whether a firm’s asset growth is a robust predictor in the cross-section of stock returns for the major segments of the hospitality industry.

    The Club Industry: The Challenging Years of 2003 through 2008
    (2009-01-01) DeFranco, Agnes; Schmidgall, Raymond S.
    This article is based on a research project spanned over a six year period of 2003-2008 on the club industry in the United States. The last six years saw many events that affect the economy of the world. The results showed the club industry is not immune to such ups and downs. While the financial viability of an individual club is tied strongly to its local economy, the entire industry is closely affected by the general economy. Twenty ratios are reported covering the five general classes of financial ratios. The ratio results suggest 2004 was a banner year for the club industry, while the current tough recession has pushed the club business into turmoil, and little relief is in sight.
