“…Thus TDABC has a resource consumption orientation and captures a drop in demand for fixed overhead when a single service or activity ceases, even if this drop does not immediately reduce spending. But with a sufficiently long period, nearly all public service costs become variable (Stern, 2010). A shorter performance horizon is less certain, so TDABC results offer mainly attention-directing information by highlighting services or goods that require more detailed attention.…”

“…Vários trabalhos destacam a importância do custo de oportunidade em um processo de decisão, medindo o valor da escolha de um curso de ação (Chatterjee, Payette, Demas, & Finlayson, 2009;Friedman & Neumann,1980;Garrison, Noreen, & Brewer, 2006;Hopwood, 2009;Jones, 2006;Stern, 2010;Vera-Muñoz, 1998;Victoravich, 2010). Nas mais diversas abordagens, os economistas são unânimes em considerar o custo de oportunidade uma ferramenta adequada ao processo de tomada de decisão gerencial (Beuren, 1993 A receita econômica representa o valor que o cidadão teria que pagar se fosse buscar a satisfação de sua necessidade diretamente no setor privado (Bonacim & Araujo, 2009;Luque et al, 2008;Slomski et al, 2010).…”

RESUMONo ano de 2010, uma alteração no quadro normativo brasileiro introduziu a Demonstração do Resultado Econômico (DRE) para o setor público, que busca comparar custos internos de produção com valores de mercado, segundo o conceito de custo de oportunidade. Este estudo procura analisar as possíveis respostas estratégicas dos gestores , buscando perceber se a cultura contábil existente no País permite a aceitação do novo instrumento. Por meio das percepções dos agentes públicos do Comando da Aeronáutica (Comaer), no Brasil, conclui-se que a resposta estratégica dos entrevistados tende para a atitude de aceitação da nova rotina, demonstrando traços de menor conservadorismo e maior interesse pela evidenciação de resultados.PALAVRAS-CHAVE | Aeronáutica, contabilidade pública, custo de oportunidade, resultado econômi-co, subsistência.

“…An obvious example is the estimate that the United States spends about 50 bUSD a year on security in the Middle East, without counting the costs of special operations like the war in Iraq, which costs more than 100 bUSD a year, which in comparison to Department of Defense Homeland Security expenditures is very huge . In addition, the estimated cost of U.S. force projection in the Persian Gulf for 1976–2007 is found by Stern to be 6800 bUSD 2008 . The question that needs to be answered is: Is this spending justified to enhance energy security?…”

“…For example, in the United States, total funding for Iraq reached about 600 bUSD after 6 years of the Iraq war; in comparison to Department of defense homeland security efforts of 50 bUSD . In addition, the estimated cost of American force projection in the Persian Gulf for 1976–2007 is found by Stern to be 6800 bUSD 2008 . Such imbalance between the dimension is debatable whether it pays off the expenses or not.…”

This paper sheds light on an integral aspect of the global energy system: energy security. Energy security is a universal topic that shapes policies and regulations in order to achieve higher levels of energy security and thus provides societies with a better life. Understanding the concept and its implications requires a holistic definition, but current research literature lacks a commonly accepted, precisely defined definition. Therefore, the research gap is the absence of a comprehensive definition that takes into account all energy security dimensions, and the absence of well-studied relationships between energy security and its dimensions. Taking that in mind, the gap is addressed by a systematic review of energy security definitions and by building a structural dimensionalization of energy security. Thus, this review aims to track changing definitions of energy security in modern times and formulate a concise and comprehensive definition. Furthermore, using a structural approach, 15 dimensions, and related parameters of energy security are determined and categorized to illustrate the range of issues covered by the term and to enable precise evaluation of the energy security of energy systems. The results of this review show clearly how energy security could be defined generically to account all dimensions, and show the relationships between these 15 dimensions and energy security. Understanding all dimensions of energy security provides insights for policymakers to formulate policies that account for all of these dimensions.
