  111. Abstract
  112. TRAIN law primarily aims to refine the tax system to keep it moving forward through the rationalization of the Philippine internal revenue tax system and in turn, promoting sustainable and inclusive growth. After it has been implemented, many people argued that it only caused inflation which lessens the purchasing power of the Filipino citizens. The study aimed to determine the effects of TRAIN Law to the saving and spending behavior of the residents in Nasugbu. It aimed to determine if the simplified tax system has a positive or negative effect to the said respondents and to assess their level of awareness towards the said tax reform. To be able to determine the level of awareness and effects of TRAIN Law, this study used descriptive research method. The saving and spending behavior as well as the awareness were assessed using Likert Scale and computed using Weighted Mean and Z-Test. The results of the study proved that there is only a slight change on the saving and spending behavior after administering the new tax system. Z-test provided that there is no significant difference on the saving behavior of the respondents while on the other hand, there is significant difference on the spending behavior after the implementation of TRAIN Law.

  297. Finances are provided to suffice the needs and wants of the person and not to make them feel distress about not having such. Literatures and studies provide that instead of experiencing well-being, the college students are experiencing distress. That being the case, the study aimed to determine the extent to which parental influence, peer influence, personality, financial self-control, financial knowledge, personal goals and credit orientation affect the saving and spending behaviour of the college students and identify the impact of such factors to their financial wellness. To be able to gather the data needed for the study, the researchers have used the descriptive method by means of survey questionnaire and underwent the statistical treatment of data through frequency, percentage, one-way ANOVA, z-test, pearson r correlation and chi-square. It is revealed that the college students are affected by parental influence, personality, financial self-control and personal goals to a moderate extent, peer influence and financial knowledge to some extent and credit orientation to a little extent. The study provides that the college students are in the state of financial awareness. Significant difference was also found between the factors affecting the saving and spending behaviour when the college students are grouped according to college. The two factors that have no relationship or impact to the financial wellness of the students are the financial knowledge and credit orientation. Furthermore, the study resulted that there is a significant relationship between the saving and spending behaviour of the college students and their financial wellness.

  389. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) play a vital role in the country’s economic growth and development. Despite their contributions, they are still afflicted by high failure rates. The rising cost of business is one of the external factors which is a major contributor of the failure. In order to attain or enhance profitability, business entities should apply cost-cutting practices. This study aimed to determine these practices and to explain how the implemented cost-cutting practices affect their business performance. The researchers used the descriptive method of research with the survey questionnaire as the main instrument in gathering data that was distributed to 42 small and medium enterprises in Nasugbu, Batangas. The data gathered were tallied, analyzed and interpreted. The result of the study showed that the most frequently-used cost-cutting practices of SMEs are paying invoices early to avail of discounts, using e-mails whenever possible instead of snail mail or written letters, increasing social media use and reducing traditional marketing, and standardization of materials. Majority of the SMEs strongly agreed that their implemented cost-cutting practices increase the profit of the business. The results also showed that there is a significant difference between the cost-cutting practices of SMEs in terms of finance and administration, human resource, marketing, and operation and the profile of the business.

  435. Personal financial management is the means to be financially independent which is the ultimate goal of every individual. In spite of knowing this, people still do not put it into practice to improve their personal finance which leads them to acquiring bad credit habits. This study tried to determine the personal financial management practices of the employees of selected manufacturing companies in Nasugbu and Balayan, Batangas. Thus, it sought to determine some personal financial practices in terms of saving, spending, borrowing, and investing. The researchers used the descriptive research design with the survey questionnaire as the main instrument used to gathered data from its 227 respondents. The researchers used statistical tools such as frequency, percentage, mean, Z-test, and ANOVA. The stratified random sampling technique was used in selecting the sample size. The result of the study showed that the respondents often save money, often spend money within their monthly income, seldom borrow money and have no credit cards, and seldom invest in stocks, bonds, real estate and other investment vehicles. The findings also established the fact that the employees’ personal financial management in terms of saving and spending differs based on their age, sex, civil status, job category, income range and length of service while their borrowing practices differs as to their age, sex, job category, income range, and length of service. Their investing practices likewise differ as to their age, civil status, and job category.

  485. It is imperative for parents to ensure that their children receive the best education that money can buy. As parents, they must make sure that they have the financial stability to send their children for college education. This study aimed to provide a better understanding of the saving behavior among parents for their financial preparation on the potential expenses for their children’s college education. It also determined the factors that affect the way they save for their children’s college education. This study utilized the descriptive method of research with the use of survey questionnaire in gathering data from 370 respondents. The researchers used statistical tools such as frequency, percentage, mean, z-test and ANOVA. The result showed that most of the parents are goal-oriented persons. Though most of them have low savings rate, they do view savings as a means to reach their goals. The study also revealed that majority of the parents seldom save for their children’s potential college expenses. Moreover, it was found out that parental influence and self-control are the most dominant factors that affect the saving behavior of the parents. The findings likewise showed that there is a significant difference between the saving behavior of parents when they are grouped according to sex, educational attainment, work status and family monthly income. The following recommendations were advanced: the parents may consider attending financial literacy seminars to make them more knowledgeable towards their finances; they should have a savings plan for their children’s college education, they may consider starting small business at home. They may also socialize with people who have good saving behavior.

  525. Electronic banking services employ new technologies to provide a wide array of conventional amenities directly to customers, anytime and anywhere. However, like all good things, even electronic banking has certain drawbacks. One of these drawbacks is the lack of trust. Some human beings prefer to trust others like them and may have some difficulty in trusting a machine, especially in the matters of money. This study aimed to assess the electronic banking services offered by selected commercial banks in Nasugbu, Batangas and to find out if there is a significant difference between the assessments of customers of the electronic banking services. The researchers used the descriptive method with the questionnaire as their main instrument in gathering data. The study has a total of 388 respondents. The data gathered were tallied, analyzed and interpreted. The results of the study revealed that majority of the respondents use the Automated Teller Machine which is one of the electronic banking services. The study likewise revealed that clients have encountered problems like: machines are out of order, machines are out of cash, cards are blocked, and long waiting time in queues when using e-banking services. Moreover, the researchers found out that there is no significant difference on the assessment of the customers of the electronic banking services in terms of accessibility, security, confidentiality, and usefulness. However, there is a significant difference in terms of cost.

  568. ABSTRACT
  569. Financial knowledge and competence has become more essential as financial markets offer more complex choicesand as the responsibility for saving and investing for the future has become very critical. When people lack financial knowledge, they are more inclined to making unwise and costly financial decisions in relation to borrowing, savings, and investments that can have a devastating impact. The study is aimed to identify the level of financial knowledge gap between men and women in order to develop possible ways to help them shape their behavior, education and attitude towards handling finances and be financially knowledgeable to avoid experiencing financial crises. To be able to gather data needed, the researchers used the descriptive method with the questionnaire as their mainstream instrument in gathering data with 398 respondents in total. The data gathered were tallied, analyzed and interpreted. The result of the study revealed that in measuring their financial knowledge using the subjective and objective type of questions, women showed extreme familiarity on financial terms while men had slight familiarity on financial terms. In the objective test of their knowledge, men performed much better than women did in answering basic numeracy questions.

  619. Money issue is not a new challenge in the lives of individuals and families. However, little is known about the psychological factors that may influence how people see money. Typically, those beliefs were primarily acquired during childhood which may drive people’s behaviors, financial management practices and financial decision at present. This study aimed to identify the unconscious beliefs about money of the residents of PoblacionNasugbu, Batangas which may influence their personal financial management practices and to find out if there is a significant relationship between the respondents’ beliefs about money and their personal financial management practices when they are grouped according to profile. The researchers used the descriptive method of research with the use of a survey questionnaire as the main data-gathering instrument distributed to 389 residents at the Poblacion. This study identified four distinct money belief patterns (money avoidance, money worship, money status and money vigilance). This study revealed that the residents are money vigilant and it was found out that being money vigilant is a good indicator, which positively influences them to have good personal financial management practices. Also, the respondents perceived that money beliefs have positive effects to their practices. The findings also showed that there is no significant relationship between money beliefs and personal financial management practices when the residents are grouped according to their profile. Surprisingly, the study revealed that the unconscious money beliefs that they acquired during childhood do not limit their full potential to be financially free today and to possibly reach their financial success in the near future.

  684. Income diversification has played a very vital role in uplifting the lives of everyone for over several years. It cannot be denied the benefits it had been given to achieve financial independence. Many studies show the importance of this as a means to attain financial sustainability most especially to rural households. It is critical for them to rely on only one source of income which is farming due to its seasonality but due to diversifying to non-farm activities, their burden when it comes to financing is lessened. Due to the limited studies about the public market vendors, the researchers decided to come up with this study. It focused on the income diversification of public market vendors in Nasugbu and Tuy, Batangas and its impact on their expenses, loans, and financial goals. The researchers used the descriptive method to determine the type of approach necessary to complete an accurate assessment of the topic at hand. Through the use of survey questionnaire constructed by the researchers and utilization of analysis of variance (ANOVA) to analyze if there is a significant difference on the factors being tested, this study revealed that there is really a significant difference on the impact of income diversification as to the respondents’ profile. However, despite the benefits of such specifically the enhancement of income of the respondents, it is revealed that there is no significant difference in the financial goals of the respondents when it comes to their civil status.
