Economic growth and development has been important to economists. Every economist has mentioned different elements in order for economic growth in every country. One of these elements is paying attention to regional development and the necessity of appropriate distribution of resources in order to equally develop all regions of a country. These indexes have been categorized into five categories as the following: Economic, cultural and educational, construction and housing, hygiene and treatment, and urban facilities indexes; this study has been done in 1390. To do this study, two methods of numerical taxonomy and the process of hierarchy analysis have been applied to help. The results obtained from the method of taxonomy show that metropolitan cities, Tehran, Isfahan, Tabriz, Karaj, Mashhad, Qom, Shiraz, and Ahvaz are the most developed cities in Iran respectively. The results obtained from the process of hierarchy analysis show that metropolitan cities, Tehran, Isfahan, Karaj, Mashhad, Tabriz, Shiraz, Qom, and Ahvaz are the most developed cities in Iran respectively.

Income tax, source of funding and fiscal policy tools to achieve the economic government targets.Fluctuations or instability revenue, causes that the government in planning, to rely on an unreliable source of income and thus, its long-term goals and plans, fail. So, the aim of this study, is to analyze the impact of instability in corporate income tax (CIT) on economic growth in Iran. To reach the goal, the first in a regression model using generalized least squares method, the effect of different variables on corporate income tax and it was calculated error terms. Then the error terms as the instability of corporate income tax and the independent variable in growth model using Auto Regressive Distributed Lags, considered and estimated. To estimate the model, seasonal and variable data for the period: 1993-2014 extracted in the Central Bank of Iran site. The result shows that in the short term, corporate income tax behave differently on economic growth. And in the same time period drastically different effect, but in short run, have a negative effect in subsequent periods like the positive and negative effects of the business cycle due to the seasonality of the data. As a result of long-term negative impact on economic growth with high levels of statistical significance.

The relationship between financial development and income distribution is one of the main issues in the macroeconomic literature and has been considered empricially in recent years. Hence, the main aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of financial development on the income distribution during the 2001-2015 by applying dynamic panel data approach for selected countries of the OIC. The results of this study indicate that, the financial sector development in selected countries of the OIC has reduced income inequality. The effect of financial development on poverty is positive and significant at 5% level. Based on these results a percentage increase in the index of financial development, leading to increased consumption per capita cost at 0.07 percent and reduce poverty in selected countries of the OIC. By the results of this paper, the main policy implication of this study is that the policy makers in thease countries should adopt the monetary policies to emprove the income distribution of reduce the poverty.

This study aimed to prioritize the Factors Affecting Financial Resources in Bank Mehr-e-Eghtesad Isfahan using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was performed. The study’s sample involved 13 executives & staff managers of Bank Mehr-e-Eghtesad of Isfahan that were selected by purposive sampling. To gather information from paired comparisons questionnaire was used. Validity of the questionnaires from masters and professionals and experts was assessed positively. Reliability of questionnaire based on the Inconsistency rate were calculated. To test the hypothesis using AHP Approach and Expert Choice software was used. The results showed that the central bank policy criteria, has largest share and the legal limitations criteria, has the lowest share in decision-making. The interest rate paid on deposits, according to all indicators, as the most influential factor on the mobilization of bank resources and service quality as the low- influential factor.

The need for sustainable development is to have regional justice in development. The imbalance in the regional justice will be an obstacle to sustainable development in long term. Understanding the development of regions is the first step to eliminate the regional disparities. In the present study two periods 1390 and 1375 has been chosen to assess the level of developments of provinces. According to the research literature and access to data and information, various educational and cultural, housing and infrastructural, demographic and sanitary indicators has been selected, due to the each indicator, the necessary adjustments has been made. To determine the degree of the developments of Iran’s provinces, two methods of taxonomy and TOPSIS has been used. The obtained results show that despite the reduction in the standard deviation and range of the provincial development index, there are some regional disparities in Iran yet and center-periphery test pattern is confirmed for both periods. Due to the Potential differences in different regions, applying the same program for all areas is not possible. Accordingly it is recommended that in the context of national development plans, regional plans with a focus on regional capacities must be done So that sustainable development be achieved for all areas.

The process of increases global oil and food prices in recent years is concerned economists to examine the relationship between these variables. The main objective of this paper is to determine the impact of oil price on food prices index during the period 1990-2011 under uncertainty condition. For this purpose, first based on Alghalit (2010) empirical study and microeconomic foundations, the model has been designed between oil and food prices under uncertainty condition for Iranian Economy. Then, coefficients of this model are estimated by using the nonlinear least squares (NLS) econometric approach. The results indicated a positive but few impact of expected crude oil prices and it's uncertainty on the expected food price index that can be result the payment of government subsidies to the energy sector. So that with increase (decrease) 10 units (dollar) in the expected price of crude oil and its volatility, increases (decreases) the expected food price index respectively about 1.4 and 0.8 unit. According to the other results, with increase in supply and export of crude oil, expected food prices are decrease.
