Abstract
The problem of research has been reflected in the absence of interest of economic units in information on environmental and social costs needed to measure maintainable performance and in the fact that those economic units simply account for the elements of costs used in the production of products without considering the environmental and social costs in determining the cost of the product for the purpose of addressing this problem, this research is aimed at studying and indicating the impact of environmental and social cost accounting on the sustainable functioning of the economic unit. The nature of the accounting system applied in the economic unit in question is identified as the Ground of Architecture Cement Manufacturing Company, for the purpose of achieving the objectives of research and hypothesis testing, the Land of Architecture Cement Manufacturing Company, located in Misan governorate, has been selected environmental and social costs have not been measured, assessed and revealed as costs distinctly from other costs in the balance sheets, as it has been shown through the applied study that the environmental and social costs of the economic unit in question are hidden among other costs, leading to unsuitable management decisions, and thus negatively affecting the validity of the financial lists and reports of the economic unit. Through the statistical investigation of the questionnaire form, it was found that environmental and social cost accounting had a positive impact on raising the level of production, sales and occupational safety of workers, as well as on the reduction or decrease of environmental risks in the economic unit, as well as its positive impact on the valuation of the maintainable performance of the economic unit in question.

Abstract
Measure the efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs) using quantitative approaches plays important role to help decision maker to enhance the organization efficiency. Also, integrating more than one quantitative approach have received more attention recently. This paper presents an efficient computational approach which consist of integrating two multi-criteria decision making approaches. The first is the data envelopment analysis (DEA) model and it used to measure the efficiency of the DMUs based on their inputs and outputs and the second approach is Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). The presented approach has teased using dataset as in [12] of municipal services in Thi Qar Province, focusing on seven municipalities within the region. Using the presented approach, first we identify the relative efficiency using DEA models. Second, we rank all DMUs that reach full efficiency. Using a dataset comprising three inputs and three outputs associated with municipal services. The result of paper shows that this approach is reliable and easy to implement and it is suitable for helping the decision maker to reach the optimal decision for sustainable evaluation.

Abstract
The concept of sustainable development has become a popular slogan in contemporary organizations. Today, it is the central focus of the programs of many governmental and non-governmental organizations, as well as many companies around the world. Sustainable development refers to meeting the needs of individuals without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Here, marketing plays an important role, not only by aligning a company’s strategy with the environment, but also by promoting the importance of implementing this concept. Green marketing relies on the use of promotional methods that focus on the environmental benefits of products and services. By marketing sustainable solutions, companies such as Asia Renewable Energy (the case study) can, according to our research findings, raise environmental awareness among their audiences and encourage consumers to adopt environmentally friendly behaviors. Marketing green products not only promotes the environment but also reflects social values that respect human rights and equality. By applying the principles of sustainability, companies enhance the well-being of society by providing clean, sustainable energy that contributes to reducing pollution and improving the quality of life. Marketing innovations in renewable energy contributes to stimulating demand for these solutions, which enhances the ability of companies to grow sustainably. By focusing on marketing solar, wind or other renewable technologies, companies like Asia Renewable Energy can contribute to the transition to a low-carbon society. Asia Renewable Energy can serve as an excellent example of applying green marketing strategies to support sustainable development. Some of the points that can be highlighted in this study are: Renewable energy products and services The company’s focus on providing clean and sustainable energy solutions, such as solar panels and wind power. Using new or innovative technologies in the field of renewable energy, which enhances its position in the market as an environmentally responsible company. Organizing media campaigns on various platforms to raise awareness about the benefits of renewable energy and its impact on reducing the carbon footprint. Working to support development projects in local communities, such as providing clean energy to remote areas, which enhances its social role. Through these strategies, Asia Renewable Energy can effectively contribute to achieving sustainable development at the environmental and societal levels.
