The Australian music industry is growing and developing yet specific information about the ways in which distribution systems develop is limited. In this study I examined the growth and change of the Australian music value chain.

This research investigates the ‘stateless income’ tax strategies pursued by firms publicly listed in the United States. Stateless income strategies are employed by multinational corporations, American firms in particular, through a Double Irish Dutch Sandwich structure to reduce tax liabilities. By examining 700 listed U.S. firms over the period 2004-2013, this research finds that larger firms with higher levels of foreign income are more likely to adopt the Double Irish Dutch Sandwich structure.

This thesis analyses the Australian resources equity market reaction to the 2010 resource tax announcements. These taxes were explicitly designed to meet tax neutrality conditions. Tax neutrality implies that taxes should not incur substitution effects that result in economic inefficiency.

This thesis involves construction of input-output models measuring the economic impact of a farming innovation organisation (The Birchip Cropping Group) on the Victorian regional economy of Buloke Shire. The input-output modeling undertaken is of two forms; the first being a simple top-down model, and the second a more sophisticated hybrid model. The top-down model is based on input-output coefficients drawn from the Australian national input-output tables, and is regarded as because these input-output coefficients are not adjusted to take account of local economic factors.

Finance is considered as the lifeblood of the economy and it is integral to a country's economic growth and stability. However, this perception has been called into question, particularly following the global financial crisis, giving rise to new research questions. For example, does too much finance harm economic growth? And does the financial sector serve society's economic and social needs? This thesis aims to provide cross-sectional and time-series evidence on the macroeconomic consequences of financialisation in an international context.

This thesis aims to develop a new comparative approach to the study of public sector innovation by examining legislative and regulatory frameworks in a public sector context. The novelty of this approach is exemplified in providing a systematic and detailed account of regulation in the public sector. However, given the sheer breadth of public sector services, a specific area of focus is needed. This thesis will concentrate on public school education as an example of a public sector service to build a series of case studies.
