The aforementioned estimators have performed in a reasonable manner even with the models in which frictional dependent variables are censored at 0.1. Therefore, the overall results of the analysis have been segregated into two empirical applications one based on cash holdings and other on dynamic capital structure. The overall findings have also revealed that there may be a differentiating reserve for long-term ideal monetary policies at varying rates. Therefore, the research has recommended to allow for heterogenous parameters. The future researchers further found simulation and findings based on empirical results in other domains of corporate finance to be useful in nature.

The journal is related to the commentary analysis of the sustainability of the IIRC propositions related to the Integrated reporting. This extract of the report is seen to be largely supported by the critic’s opinions and provided additional insights about the probable impact of the IR. As per the discourse of the study the IR report is privileged with the neo-liberal programmatic elements along with the sustainability factors which are aligned with the principles of capitalism. Despite of this, the content of the IR is constructed in such a manner that there is common association among the reference among the sustainability and local corporate practices. The authored has argued that the present format of IR has excluded the components of the sustainability programmatic concepts which do not permit any substantial redistribution of power. There is also seen to be considerable amount of difficulty in the understanding of the unregulated integrated reporting which may enable sustainability reforms. It is seen to be much easier in understanding the various types of the components of the reporting which are associate with the substantive redistribution of power.

Henceforth, these explanations have contributed to the different forms of theories for assisting the practitioners in reinforcing the concepts of legitimacy. The integrated disclosures have also assisted the practitioners in reinforcing the legitimacy and other information associated to IR.
