Research on the Relationship between
Corporate Social Responsibility and Financial Performance Based on Grey Correlation
Analysis: Taking the Smartphone Company as an Example
Bingjun Li, Xiaolu Li*

Abstract
In order to explore the relationship between the corporate social responsibil- ity (CSR) and financial performance in different CSR cultures, this paper re- spectively takes four representative smartphone companies in China, the United States, Japan and Korea as research objects, that is Huawei, Apple, Sony and Samsung smartphone companies. Then, dividing the CSR into five dimensions i.e. shareholder, customer, supplier, technology innovation and government and establishing the grey correlation model to empirically ana- lyze the relationship between CSR and financial performance. The results in- dicate that for HUAWEI, the CSR performance in shareholder, customer and technology innovation have greater impact on its financial performance; for Apple, the CSR performance in shareholder, technology innovation and cus- tomer has greater impact on its financial performance; for SONY, the CSR performance in technology innovation, customer and shareholder has greater impact on its financial performance; for Samsung, the CSR performance in technology innovation, government and shareholder has greater impact on its financial performance.

Abstract
The conservation of cola nuts (Cola nitida) poses a real problem in Côte d’Ivoire because of the post-harvest losses. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of post-harvest technologies on organoleptic and physical properties of cola nut during storage. A biopesticide, glucose syrup and bio- pesticide + glucose syrup were applied to fresh cola nuts before conditioning and kept at 28˚C for 6 weeks. Physicochemical and sensory analyses were performed to check the quality of the nuts during storage. The results showed that the biopesticide keep cola nuts better than the others methods with only 11.66% ± 3.04% and 13.66% ± 3.95% of loss rates for white and red cola nuts respectively. Cola nuts treated with bio-pesticide retain significantly their freshness with 62.00% ± 1.15% of moisture for white nuts and 64.00% ± 2.00% of moisture for red nuts compared to those treated with glucose syrup and bio-pesticide + glucose syrup (56.66% ± 1.15%). Cola nuts treated with biopesticide have a better acceptability compared to those subjected to others treatments. The use of biopesticide for the storage of cola nuts minimizes the losses and maintains the quality whatever the type of cola.
