The CA/DeGroote Centre for the Promotion of Accounting Education and Research, a joint venture by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario (ICAO) and McMaster University, launched in the fall of 2011. The DeGroote School of Business has had a long-standing relationship with the ICAO, working together to promote the accounting profession to students. The Centre is a direct result of the strong ties between the accounting profession and DeGroote Accounting Faculty.

DeGroote’s centre is one of only seven in the province to be given the dis-tinction of a joint ICAO Centre. The other seven being housed at Brock University, Queen’s University, University of Toronto, University of Western Ontario, Wilfrid Laurier Univeristy, York University and University of Waterloo.

The primary purpose of the CA/DeGroote Centre is to encourage research, scholarly development and professional activities in the field of accounting for both students and fac-ulty. DeGroote's Centre is somewhat unique as its main objective is to promote accounting as a career path both as an accounting professional as well as an accounting academic to DeGroote commerce and MBA students. Thus, the Centre’s activi-ties seek to develop students’ critical thinking skills, professional judg-ment, ethical values, communication skills and research skills.

To date the CA/DeGroote Centre has offered a number of activities and events for DeGroote accounting students. Examples include hosting guest speakers and workshops for students, sponsoring the DeGroote Accounting Association’s Fast Pace to the Case Competition and supporting student research projects.

The DeGroote faculty have also ben-efited from the Centre. Key activities of the centre directed at the faculty include hosting annual networking receptions, sponsoring an annual one-day research conference and sup-porting faculty research projects.

As part of the process of becoming a joint ICAO Centre, the honours com-merce program and the accounting & financial management services spe-cialization of the MBA program were accredited by the ICAO in February 2010.

This accreditation allows for the DeGroote accounting area to tailor its program to the needs of students, allowing for better accounting edu-cation at DeGroote. In addition, the accreditation signals to our current and future students, recruiters and alumni the quality of the accounting program at DeGroote. The accredi-tation, thus, expands DeGroote’s reputation in accounting research and education, and accentuates the repu-tation of accounting graduates.

The CA/DeGroote Centre for the

Promotion of Accounting Education and

Research Advisory Board oversees the

activities of the Centre and is comprised

of faculty, ICAO representatives and

accounting alumni:

Mind that accelerator. Price promotions do not always work the

same for cameras and computers.

Temporary price discounts are sales accelerators for retailers. Just as you often depress the accelerator while passing the 18-wheeler on the highway, retailers drop prices to get consumer attention. However, as in the case of the car’s acceleration, such attention is not inevi-table. If you have ever looked at a price promotion and have ignored it as not large enough to merit further investigation, you are not alone. Perhaps you may have also looked at a promotion and thought it was so good that it better be true.

In our recent paper published in Journal of Marketing, we argue that while large discounts will always get consumer attention, the real challenge for retailers is figuring out how small a price discount can be. Too large a discount leaves money on the table. On the other hand, too small a discount may be wasted effort. But how small is too small? This is a key question for retailers deciding promotions. It turns out that the Rational Inattention theory is quite powerful in provid-ing some answers.

v o l u m e 3 | j a n . 2 0 1 3


When firms make any price change consumers must put in time and effort to understand the implications of the new price before deciding on their response. Therefore, when the benefits of processing the information seem to be outweighed by the costs associated with such effort, the consumer may simply ignore a discount. This is the basis of the theory of Rational Inattention.

Of particular interest to us were prices of cameras and computers which are multi-component systems. Both systems level prices (e.g. complete camera and comput-ers) as well as component prices (e.g. prices of lens, flash, monitor, hard drives, memory etc.) are common in both product markets. We correctly predicted the price pro-motion patterns of systems and components using the rational inattention theory. To test our insight, we observed online prices and documented that prices of camera components (like lens, flash etc.) tend to be dis-counted more than the prices of the complete camera systems. The exact opposite was true for computers, where the entire system prices tend to be discounted more than the component prices. In fact, our results show that systems price reductions are 13% smaller than component price reductions for cameras while for computers they are 19% larger.

Why is this? For the average consumer, cameras and computers are very different types of systems. For cameras, the lack of standardized interfaces restricts a high degree of inter-brand mixing and matching of components (e.g. a Canon lens cannot be used with a Pentax SLR Camera). Hence cameras are perceived as more tightly coupled and tend to be sold mostly as sys-tems. The average consumer is therefore less exposed to component prices and has less awareness of camera component prices compared to systems prices. Thus, it would take them more effort to figure out if a price promotion for a component is worthwhile, and they would be more likely to ignore small promotions in component prices. Therefore, to get their attention retailers need deeper promotions for components com-pared to systems prices. For computers on the other hand, standardized interfaces have made inter-brand

mixing and matching widespread (e.g. it is easy to take a Sony monitor and use it with any CPU brand). Thus computers are perceived as more loosely coupled with greater preponderance of component level sales. The price promotion dynamic is then exactly the opposite to that of cameras. Watch for these promotions the next time you walk into an electronics store to buy your camera or computer.

Interestingly, not only do retailers behave as per our predictions on average; those that do behave “appropri-ately” are rewarded more than those who do not. For this, we also tracked online web browsing behaviour and documented that the pricing patterns we predict are associated with greater attention.

The research results are significant. Systems span a wide range of product types beyond cameras and com-puters including such diverse categories as personal hygiene (shaving razors and hair care products like hair color, shampoo, conditioner etc.), entertainment (component audio systems, and gaming systems like PlayStation, Wii etc.), home improvement supplies and tools (paint supplies, stapler guns, drywall and flooring kits etc.) and even services (automobile servic-ing like oil change, professional services like lawn care etc.). That our empirical observations are theoretically driven is great news. It helps us provide informed guid-ance about price promotions to retailers across different product contexts. Our key findings suggest managers should provide larger discounts for components than for systems in tightly coupled markets like cameras; the reverse being true for loosely coupled markets like computers where they should offer larger discounts for entire systems than for individual components.

So, mind that accelerator, Mr. Retailer, lest you run out of gas or stall too early with your promotions!

Rita Cossaassistant professor of strategic management

with teaching professor Rita Cossa

Tell me about your background and what brought you to the DeGroote School of Business.

Upon graduating from Wilfrid Laurier University’s Bachelor of Business Administration program, I entered a training program for Scotiabank. Over the subsequent years, I held several management-level positions. As a first-year undergraduate student, I knew that I wished to complete my MBA at some point. Still working full time, I was accepted into the part-time MBA program at the DeGroote School of Business. After two years of taking two courses a term and working full time, I decided to take a leave of absence from my job and complete my MBA on a full-time basis.

In 1999, I started teaching Commerce 2MA3 (Introduction to Marketing) as a sessional instructor. As I approach my fifteenth year of employment, I am an assistant professor in the strategic management area.

Why are you so passionate about teaching?

The foundation of teaching is learning and, as a life-long learner, I still get excited about learning something new or seeing something from a different perspective. Business is dynamic and certainly never boring. Every day has its own unique rhythm and no two days are alike. When you work with bright and inquisitive students, you can see how it is easy to be passionate about teaching. This is all within an environment that includes engaged teaching assistants that also support the learning experience. Add in dedicated faculty and staff that are a great source of support and camaraderie and you have the formula for a dream job.

By participating in our commerce and MBA programs, our students will graduate with an understanding of the business world around them. They will also take tools with them that they can apply to any career, whether one is self-employed or works for an employer in the government, for profit, or not-for-profit sector. In this time where post-secondary education is becoming more expensive, it is reassur-ing to know that we are training them to be not only marketable but to also be contributors to society.

Tell me about your teaching textbook.

When I was first approached to be an author on the Understanding Canadian Business textbook, I became a bit nervous as this was something completely new and outside of my comfort zone. As a result, I decided to do it! Anything that can improve the teaching and learning experience for the students is a great motivator for me. My interactions with students have given me some perspective on what topics might require more clarity. Topics are added and modified in each edition as business continues to evolve. This work certainly encourages me to stay up to date and engaged with what is covered in my courses. After all, our students are not only being exposed to the theories, but they are required to apply then when necessary. Currently I am working on my fifth edition which will be available in the spring. I am very proud of this textbook as it remains the best-selling introduction to business textbook targeted to the Canadian college and university markets.

What do you hope your students walk away with when they have completed one of your courses?

Hopefully students see the value in the course from a skills develop-ment perspective and as they move forward in our program, continue to develop these skills. The academic journey is at times exciting, frustrating, stressful and rewarding. Students are introduced to research tools (largely through the efforts of Ines Perkovic and the staff at the Innis Library), group work, report writing (and for many, the dreaded Citation Guide) and business theory. As scholars, they need to find the more relevant information and apply it appropriately to the assignment at hand. This is all in an environment where there are many distractions.

I know that the results of the first assignment are usually a shock. Some students are dismayed that the mark does not reflect their effort and it is hard to accept that they are evaluated on results, not effort. However, the completion of the second year of the com-merce program is a testament of their perseverance, hard work and ability to successfully write back-to-back exams. I like to think that they are also more organized and detail oriented. These traits will support them as they move forward in our program and even after graduation.

Do you have any advice for students before they take one of your classes?

Come to class prepared is one of the suggestions that I make early in each course. Students have many responsibilities and they face daily distractions from their school work. As a result, they need to be focused on why they are here and on developing themselves to their full potential. This starts with the classroom but certainly extends beyond to extra-curricular activities which include volunteer work.

When I suggest that full-time students should plan to work 50 hours a week, some look at me like I have two heads. The reality is that when they are working, this is usually a minimum expectation, espe-cially if they are in management roles. It is important to develop a strong academic work ethic early in the program as it will allow them to succeed not only in the classroom but also outside of the classroom. Future employers are looking for well-rounded candi-dates and students need to start investing early in themselves in order to be competitive candidates.

Where do you see yourself in the next five years? Where do you see education moving?

I am honoured to have contributed to the learning experience of stu-dents to date and I look forward to doing some moving forward. In the next five years, I hope to still be doing what I enjoy. This includes not only interacting with students and colleagues, but also continu-ing to contribute to the McMaster University community.

Education is certainly in a time of transition. As the University con-tinues to develop undergraduate education, I expect that there will be an increasing focus on blended learning as a way to accommo-date student needs and fiscal realities. What will remain constant will be our commitment to our students and to their learning experi-ence so that they can be successful in their chosen careers.

Getting to know DeGroote's New FacultyWhat brought you to the

DeGroote School of Business?

“It was an especially attractive opportunity because of the Chair allowing me more time to focus on research. The finance and business economics department is very strong, especially with the new PhD program in finance. Given my background in eco-nomics it is a good fit to be in a group that includes both finance and economics. The location of McMaster and lifestyle are great for me and my family.”

“I have a long history with McMaster University. I completed both my undergrad and my MBA at McMaster. My education at McMaster was transformative in my decision to pursue my PhD. I am excited for the opportunity to give back to DeGroote and build my career amongst its students, faculty and staff.”

“The DeGroote School of Business made me an attractive offer that allows me to focus more of my time on research and student supervision, both of which I am very passionate about.”

“I have been working ‘bridging’ the worlds of health policy mak-ing and research for a number of years to integrate best evidence into active policy development where windows of opportunity exist to improve health care systems in Canada. My long-term goal was to eventually returning to research and teaching. The opportunity came up to join DeGroote School of Business and teach health policy analysis and to launch my own research.”

“It all started at an accounting conference at McMaster University held in early May 2012 coordinated by Justin Jin. I had a very engaging conversation over lunch about the opportunities at the DeGroote School of Business and the skill sets and experience that I bring to the table. Long story short, after presenting my thesis paper to a select group of faculty members at DeGroote, I was offered a teaching position."

Getting to know DeGroote's New Faculty

“My research area is asset pricing and, more specifically, pro-duction-based asset pricing. We look at the internal decisions that are made at the firm regarding production level, invest-ment and input mix. These real decisions provide management’s inside perspective on perceived investment returns and allow us to obtain potentially superior estimates of the cost of capital.”

“There is room to create some new initiatives at the DeGroote School of Business that tailor towards researchers. I am look-ing to create different panel opportunities that will help foster research and increase the visibility of the research we do at DeGroote. Working closely with faculty, PhD candidates and other researchers is an important part of my position as Chair, and I look forward to this.”

“My research on resilience is at the intersection of strategy and sustainability. I study how firms build capabilities that enable them to adapt to disturbances from social, ecological and eco-nomic systems, but also the role of firms in improving the resilience of those same systems.”

“I am looking forward to working with students here at McMaster. I want to build on the importance and the legacy of experiential learning in and out of the classroom by getting involved in student-led initiatives, my teachings, and in my research.”

“I have a number of projects I would like to extend. Some include modeling and forecasting bull and bear stock returns,designing joint specifications for returns and realized covariance matrices for a large number of assets, and extending Bayesian nonpara-metric methods to improve forecasts for financial time-series data. It is a very exciting time for me in the research field.”

“As graduate of McMaster University, I have fond memories of my time on campus. The University is beautiful in the fall. I look forward to furthering my research, supervising and working with new graduate students and starting my teaching.”

“My main research interest is how health policy and adminis-tration can help to improve health services delivery in Canada. I place a particular focus on mental health policy and service delivery, but the issues are the same across the broader health care system. My research is focused on how to create a system where care is centered around the person and their needs and fully involves them in their own care.”

“I really enjoy teaching and working with the students. I love watching them learn, walking the journey with them as they struggle to sort out concepts and how to apply them to their areas of interest. I love the opportunity to share my real world experience with them to help prepare them for their own careers. I’m also excited to work with health system leaders and professionals.”

“My thesis deals with implicit motives. Through an analysis of CEO letters to shareholders for a large sample of US public companies, I show that CEOs as a group have a higher need for achievement, higher need for power, and lower need for affilia-tion than the average person. More importantly, however, I find that a CEO's implicit motive persona is a leading indicator of both future accounting and stock market performance.”

“I look forward to the openness to different types of research ideas and the friendliness of all the faculty/staff/and students. My accounting research to date focuses on the interaction of account-ing with organizational behavior/psychology, an interaction that is relatively new to accounting research. In the four months that I have been at DeGroote, I have enjoyed all the experiences I have had with faculty and staff.”

The service sector currently accounts for approximately three quarters of the Canadian and US GDP and employs the majority of the working population. Unfortunately, very few customers have received delightful service in their daily lives, which is detrimental to both service organizations’ profitability and customers’ experience. Ying Hong, assistant professor of human resources & management, has worked on projects investigating how to improve service performance by effectively managing human resources.

In a paper entitled “Missing Link in the Service Profit Chain: A Meta-Analytic Review of the Antecedents, Consequences, and Moderators of Service Climate” to appear at the Journal of Applied Psychology, Hong exam-ined how a service climate is created in organizations. Service climate means that employees’ beliefs in sup-port of the organization's emphasis on service quality throughout the service production, delivery, and con-sumption processes. Such perceptions are derived from employees’ experiences of the events, practices, and procedures in the organization, as well as their understanding of what types of behaviors are rewarded, supported, and expected.

“Most employees tend to treat customers the same way they are treated by the organizations,” says Hong. “Unlike manufacturing where it is relatively easy to employ standardized quality control procedures, service is often intangible and involves interactions with cus-tomers, which makes it very difficult for organizations

to closely regulate employee service behaviours. It thus becomes very important for organizations to treat employees right so that they will voluntarily display positive service behaviours.”

The results provide useful guidance for managers who are tasked with developing a service climate and manag-ing the service profit chain. Implementing HR practices that specifically establish service delivery standards and provide support to employees in serving custom-ers communicate to employees that service excellence is supported. Performance assessment and compensation should reflect a focus on service such that service excel-lence is rewarded.

In addition, managers may behave in ways that con-vey the importance of service quality, such as setting goals for customer satisfaction, ensuring the employees have the necessary support to deliver quality service, and paying attention to customer needs. Training and performance assessment programs can be developed to specifically improve managers’ service orientation.

Finally, although service climate is important for orga-nizational service outcomes in general, managers in personal service industries such as hospitality, health care, and entertainment services should be particularly mindful of investing resources in building a strong ser-vice climate.

Since the 1980s, video games have expanded rapidly and created a large and growing industry. Video games are a pervasive element of today’s society: as recent reports from Entertainment Software Association show, about two-thirds of Americans play video games. This phenom-enon is not merely significant for children and teenagers. Statistics show that the average age of video game players is above 30 years old.

As millennials – also known as generation Y, generation N, or the net generation – enter the workforce, their mindsets and behaviours regarding their working environment have become important areas of study. It is essential for higher education institutions and employers to understand the differences and mindsets of young students and employ-ees. One significant characteristic of millennials is the fact that they learn by doing; they tend to find traditional learning and working environments boring, which would negatively influence their performance and their encour-agement to do well.

For several decades, the military has used games exten-sively, not only for simulation of complicated conflicts, but also for training officers and soldiers. By the end of the 20th century, other industries began following the lead of the military to deploy video games to advance their agen-das. Today, video games have been deployed for various applications in many sectors beyond the military such as government, education, corporations, and healthcare.

When we talk about using video games not solely for fun, two overarching categories emerge: first, ‘serious Games’, and second, a more recent category known as

‘Gamification’. Serious Games go beyond simple simu-lations by employing common elements in games, such as points, badges, competition, and so on for intentions that are more important than entertainment. Some lead-ing interest groups have emerged from research in and practice on serious games, namely “Games for Health” and “Games for Change.” On the other hand, the con-cept of Gamification has recently gained many companies’ attention, aiming to integrate game design elements in conventional non-game contexts.

Regardless of the approach through which an organization or school deploys video games (i.e. by using serious games or gamifying the design), all video games share certain design elements among themselves. One of the main ele-ments that can be found in the core of most video games is competition. In the early stages of our research, we observed the engagement of MBA students in a competi-tive video game, which is designed for teaching students and employees to work with SAP’s Enterprise Resource Planning system.

The research on the use of video games in educational and organizational contexts is in its early stages. We believe that our research on the role of environment in video games can be a significant contribution to this develop-ing research agenda. By further elaborating the impact of this key design element on engaging people, our work contributes to this emerging research stream. From a practitioner’s perspective, designers working on Serious Games and gamified systems will benefit by obtaining richer understanding of the factors that can lead to deep involvement of their users.
