The temperature of the water samples in this study ranged from 21°C to 28°C. The study found that the water quality in the selected schools was good and met the acceptable standards in terms of physicochemical parameters.

Impact of Strategic Management Accounting Practices on Financial Performance of Nepalese Manufacturing Firms

Keshab Ghimire — 2023-11-30

This study was carried out to examine the relationship between financial performance and the application of management accounting practices in the Nepalese manufacturing firms. The study adopted the survey research design. The population of the study consists of all listed manufacturing companies under Nepal stock exchange. The study used simple random sampling. Four manufacturing firms were randomly selected for the study. Data for the study were obtained through the administration of a self-designed questionnaire to managers or accountants of the sampled firms through mail survey. Regression and t-test were used to test the hypotheses postulated for the study. The study showed that application of management accounting tools has a positive relationship with financial performance of companies’ survey. The study also found a significant difference in effectiveness of decision making between application of management accounting tools and traditional management accounting techniques and concludes that implementation of strategic management accounting practice is necessary to enhance organizational performance of the firm. The study therefore recommends that manufacturing companies, especially the ones listed and still tradable under NEPSE, put in place appropriate measures to apply modern management accounting tools called strategic management accounting practices to ensure efficient and realistic decision-making process that will enhance financial performance.

Experiences of Lactating Mothers on Breastfeeding and Additional Food Practices

Krishna Bahadur G. C. — 2023-11-30

The rate of exclusive breastfeeding and additional food practices rate remained low in Nepal. It's quite surprising, given the active promotion of breastfeeding and additional food practices by individuals, family members, communities, health institutions, hospital NGOs, INGOs, and the government. Nevertheless, we should continue to spread awareness about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding and healthy food practices for infants. The main objective of this study was to explore the experience of lactating mothers, who often struggle to manage additional food practices for their babies. The study was based on narrative theory and included a small sample group of two mothers, who shared their experiences of breastfeeding. Despite the challenges, the mothers in the study remained committed to providing their babies with the best possible nutrition and care. By sharing their stories, they hope to help other mothers who may be facing similar difficulties. During the research, a qualitative-descriptive research design was adopted, and purposive sampling was used to select participants. The data was gathered using verbatim audio recordings of in-depth interviews, and interview transcriptions were analyzed using the qualitative content analysis approach. It was found that all participants were still breastfeeding at the time of the interview. The analysis of the interview transcriptions generated 46 nodes, 8 sub-themes, and 2 key themes. The two key themes that emerged were "Challenge and support for breastfeeding" and "Nutrition and additional food practices." The research provided valuable insights into the experiences of breastfeeding mothers and the factors that impact their feeding practices. Our findings show that these mothers adopt positive practices such as feeding colostrum, exclusively breastfeeding, timely introduction of additional foods, and continuing to breastfeed. To ensure that more mothers have successful breastfeeding journeys, it is crucial to increase public awareness and support for breastfeeding through education, social support, and laws that promote it. Additionally, involving family members in the process can significantly contribute to the success of breastfeeding.

Physico-Chemical Parameterization of some Commercially Available Toilets and Laundry Soaps in Tansen, Palpa

Madhab Gautam — 2023-11-30

Nepalese market has witnessed an impressive upsurge in the production and consumption of a variety of soaps in recent times since 2022 after covid pandemic. The physicochemical parameterization determines the quality, competency and cleaning properties of soap so that we urge sagacious use of these soaps to keep skin healthy. Due to scant knowledge about the quality of soaps, there is need to assess them. Ten parameters namely foam height, surface tension, pH, moisture content, conductance, total fatty matter, total alkali, free caustic alkali and chloride content of commercially available toilet (Dettol, Lifebuoy, Liril, Lux, No.1, Haldi Kanti, Neem Kanti and Neem Chiuri) and laundry soap (Aaha, Darshan, Dhoni and Xpert) samples collected from local market of Tansen were determined using different standard documented method of analysis. The physicochemical parameters examined in collected different soap samples are found as; foam height (20-120) ml, surface tension (38.857-67.192) dynes/cm, pH (6.67-10.54), moisture content (6.68-34.40) %, conductance (115-327) µs/cm, Total Fatty Matter or T.F.M. (42-85.10) %, total alkali (0.31-1.178) %, free caustic alkali (0.54-0.91) % and chloride content (0.1-0.69) %, indicating most of examined parameters for soap were in standard limit as quality criteria set by Bureau of Indian Standards, IS 286: 1978 except that of free caustic alkali content in laundry soaps. This study has recommended public to use toilet soap for bathing purpose as it removes dirt more and laundry soap are found to have good cleansing action for clothes.

Assessing of Physicochemical Parameters and Seasonal Variations in the Tinau River of Palpa, Nepal

Pit Bahadur Nepali — 2023-11-30

The water quality and quantity parameters in lakes, rivers, marshes and lagoons are affected from both natural factors and human activities. The present study was undertaken to assess the quality of water samples with special reference to physicochemical properties of Tinau River. The water samples were collected from November 2021 to September, 2022 and analysed 17 physico-chemical parameters (Temperature, P^H, dissolved oxygen, free CO₂, total alkalinity, hardness, turbidity, Ammonia, Nitrogen, Chlorine, Chromium, Copper, Cyanide, Iron, Nitrate nitrogen, Phosphorus, Silica and Sulphide). The result physic-chemical parameters show that turbidity of water is with slightly basic property with P^H 8, temperature between16-17°C, DO (9-10.1mg/L), Total alkalinity (65-98mg/l), Hardness (4.8-10.5mg/l), Free CO₂(3-4), Ammonia nitrate trace and other components are negative. This showed that research area are good to excellent quality water for different purposes. In addition, for the purpose of maintaining water quality, it is essential to understand specifics about many physico-chemical properties. These factors need additional study because they can induce water poisoning or chronic poisoning in aquatic animals.

EMI Strategy: A Misconception in Early Grade

Raju Parajuli — 2023-11-30

This article discusses on the debatable EMI (English as a Medium of Instruction) issue as there is confusion either English must be taught right from the Nursery or at some later stage. Nepalese classrooms are the product of multilingual, multicultural and bilingual society. Without considering the fact of multilingual and multi-ethnic context, EMI (English as a medium of Instruction) is strictly adopted in schools in early grade. Our school system, including textbooks, instruction, curriculum, teaching practices, is influenced heavily by the dominant English hegemony in early grade. In this context, this paper aims to explore the difficulties and struggles of Nepali language speaking children’s experiences as they find in between the Nepali-speaking home environment and English-speaking school environment at their early grades. To fulfill this objective, the researcher adopted narrative research design under qualitative method incorporating interpretative philosophical guideline. It is based on the unstructured interviews aimed at eliciting personal stories and experiences related to EMI in early grade. Discussing on a narrative analysis, this paper revealed that how the learners are discouraged to what Bourdieu’s term symbolic violence with some examples of how such demotivation is seen in school’s teaching-learning practices. The results further concluded that to address the problematic nature of schooling for such learners in most of the schools in Nepal, this paper highlights the need for socially responsive school policies and pedagogy understanding local context entertaining the linguistic and cultural diversity of students.

Practice of Alternative Assessment at Tribhuvan University

Ram Nath Neupane — 2023-11-30

Alternative assessment is a recent trend in the field of education. It helps the teachers and students to be more self reflective and responsible towards their tasks and activities. In this light, the present study aimed to explore the practice of alternative assessment system at Tribhuvan University. To accomplish the objective, the researcher adopted interpretivism as philosophical approach and narrative inquiry as research design. This research was based on the experience of university level teachers teaching at semester level. The total population of this study comprised all the teachers teaching at Tribhuvan University. However, the researcher selected only seven English language teachers from Tribhuvan Multiple Campus, Palpa using purposive sampling procedure. Similarly, the researcher made an interview guide, and interviewed with the sampled teachers using recording devices to obtain in-depth information. The results revealed that most of the teachers prefer to use traditional paper pencil test rather than using alternative assessment tools for student evaluation. They had their reluctance to use alternative assessment tools because of the time, resource and investment constraints. They were not properly updated and trained towards alternative assessment. However, they highlighted the importance of such tools for their students’ evaluation. The present study can be useful to the teachers of university level for gaining insights of the alternative assessment tools for student evaluation.

Expenditure on Human Capital and Economic Growth: Evidences form Nepal

Santosh Khanal — 2023-11-30

Human capital expenditure is critical to utilizing and profiting from all of the country's resources. Economists have acknowledged that human capital improvement and usage are critical to a nation's economic prosperity. The research article investigates the relationship between human capital spending and Nepal's economic growth. The study analyzed data from 1985 to 2022 to investigate experimentally the relationship between Nepal's human capital spending and GDP. The study uses a variety of macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP as a measure of economic growth, capital expenditure on education, recurrent expenditure on education, health expenditure, higher education enrollment, and school enrollment. LNRGDP serves as both the explanatory variable and the dependent variable in the study's use of regression analysis. The Unit Root Test, OLS Estimation, Unit Root Residual and Error Correction Approach, and Econometric Analysis are all included. The results of the regression show that higher enrollment has a positive effect while capital expenditure on education has a negative impact on GDP. Spending on ongoing education, health, and school enrollment has no statistically significant effect on GDP. A long-term, positive correlation between the investment in human capital and economic growth is found by the cointegration test. According to the findings, funding higher education is essential for fostering Nepal's economy. In addition, the study highlights the significance of policymakers carefully considering resource allocation for education and human capital development in order to ensure the nation's sustainable growth

Determinants of Internal Migration in Nepal

Sharda Bhattarai — 2023-11-30

Migration has become an important livelihood strategy for many poor people. This paper aims to examine the determinants of migration in context of Nepal; using secondary Nepal labour force survey (2017/18) survey data, by employing both descriptive and analytical tools on it. The theoretical background of this paper is pull-push theory of migration. This paper uses logistic regression model, misspecification test, multicollinearity test, heteroskedasticity test and marginal effect for empirical data analysis. Migration decisions are significantly affected by marital status, educational level, gender, household size and new-urban but insignificantly affected by unemployment. The finding results show that marital status, sex, unemployment, educational level, new urban and household size are the reasons behind the migration decisions. Based on findings, this paper recommends that the government should provide skilled oriented qualitative education and equal employment opportunities in rural areas. The quantative education enhances the volume of migration. Similarly, the govt. should also reduce regional disparities between urban and rural areas.
