In the World Economy, it is carried out floating Exchange rates since 1970’s. On the other hand, Financial liberalization have been effected on capital movements in 1990’s. At this circumstances, it is very important indicator that the interest rate parity between USA and Turkiye. We find that interest rate arbitrage is rising based on difference spot rate and forward rate for two countries (1990-2004). Current accounts effects badly at these differences.

Activity Based Costing and Theory of Constraints are two important cost accounting and production theories that should be used for product mix decisions. Relative to traditional costing systems, activity-based costing by using the cost of activities as the basis or assigning costs to products. Cost are assigned to products based on the products ’ consumption of the activités. Theory of Constraints is based on the concept that every organization has as least one constraint. To improve business ’ decision making process, strategies must adress the organization's constraints. Activity — based costing and theory of constraints are combined for makirig specific decisions. In this paper, two different system are combined for product mix decisions. Especially, the outstanding features of the each method must be used to complete other method’s insufficient features. Combination of activity — based costing and theory of constraints might give an optimum solution for product mix decisions.

The primary objective of this study is to examine the potential crowding out effect of public deficit through interest rates paid for saving deposits (the cost of deposits). We follow Cebula (1997, 2000) and Darrat (2000) that have investigated such an effect of public deficit in the US. Even though the economic effects of public deficits in Turkey are widely deliberated by many researchers, none of them has directed his/her study through this way yet. By using Turkish data, we estimate the relationship between real interest rates and public deficit over the 1985-2003 period. The results suggest that changes in public deficit positively and significantly affect the real interest rate paid for saving deposits at the Turkish banks.
