Abstract
The subject of microeconomics is the behavior of firms, individuals and government. According to production theory, rational behavior of the firms, leads to profit maximization. So, one of the most important rational questions in production theory, is the determination of a suitable location of the firm. In the last two decades, several theories have been proposed to analyze the factors affecting the location of economic activities. These theories emphasize on many factors that can be summarized in two categories: factors affecting supply and demand. The aim of this article is to determine and analyze factors affecting the location of electronics industry in Iran. In this regard, 25 factors were identified. Whoever, this number of explanatory variables decreases the number of degree of freedom in a Logit and/or Probit model dramatically. So, the principal component analysis was used to decrease the number of LHS variables.
Results show that the industrial development and the creation and maintenance of facilities have important effects on the location of electronics industry in different provinces of Iran. Also due to high proportion of the value to the weight of the final products or the high mobility and tradability of electronics industry products, local and surrounding area‘s income have negative impacts on the industry location.

Abstract
The fluctuations in the oil price with uncertainty, as an exogenous variable, is the most important factor affecting the fluctuations in the GDP of the countries especially OPEC. This study examines the effect of oil price uncertainty on the Iran’s GDP growth using the seasonal data for the period 1988(1)-2011(4). The model used in this study is the asymmetric VARMA, MVGARCH-M and the estimated method is quasi maximum likelihood (QML). The results indicated that there is a negative and significant relationship between oil price and economic growth over the period. Furthermore, the results show that the conditional variance-covariance process underlying output growth and change in oil price exhibits non-diagonality and asymmetry.

Abstract
Money supply and velocity of money are important variables that affect inflation and product. Velocity of money is a key concept for economic policy, and it's getting more important since it is closely related to behavior of the demand for money. In this regard, Friedman believes that the volatility of money growth is the main factor of velocity of money, which in monetary economics literature is known as Friedman’s monetary volatility hypothesis. The purpose of this study is to explore and explain the fluctuations in the velocity of mony from the perspective of Monetarism. In this regard, using Iran’s economic quarterly data for the period 1988(3)-2015(1) and in the framework of causality test, the Friedman hypothesis based on the impact of volatility of money growth on velocity of money is tested for monetary aggregates (M1 and M2). The model used in this paper is extended VARMA, GARCH-M and the estimated method is quasi maximum likelihood (QML). The results support the Friedman hypothesis for the period under study; in other words, there is a causal relationship from money growth volatility to velocity of money.
