以Entropy-Based TOPSIS評估台灣食品公司經營績效

本研究採用Entropy-Based的TOPSIS法來評估台灣食品公司的經營績效，在這項研究中以台灣的13家食品公司2009年至2011年3年的20個財務指標平均值來進行評估，本研究採用Shannon's Entropy來計算客觀權重，並以TOPSIS方法所產生的排序來決定這些食品公司的經營績效。實證分析結果顯示，評估這些食品公司最重要的五個經營績效評估準則為：利息保障倍數、純益率、營業利益佔實收資本比率、稅前純益佔實收資本比率、資產報酬率；最不重要的五個評估準則分別為：應收款項收現日數、流動比率、負債佔資產比率、速動比率及每股盈餘。在13家公司中，以佳格食品股份有限公司在2009年至2011年之間擁有最好的經營績效。
