Beslutsfattande och information : rapportanvändning i små företag
Bakgrund: Ekonomiska rapporter tas ofta fram av slentrian i små företag och småföretagare har många gånger svårt att förstå informationen som finns i de ekonomiska rapporterna och använder den inte heller som underlag för sitt beslutsfattande. De förlitar sig hellre på intuition och fingertoppskänsla. Vi menar att småföretagare borde bli mer medvetna om hur de kan dra nytta av de ekonomiska rapporterna. Syfte: Syftet är att ge ett bidrag till diskussionen kring rapportanvändning i små företag. Med bidrag menar vi dels att utreda vilka ekonomiska beslut som fattas i små företag dels vilka variabler som kan vara avgörande för i vilken utsträckning ekonomiska månadsrapporter används som beslutsunderlag.

Systemutveckling i praktiken - konsten att tillmötesgå den okända användarens krav
ABSTRACT
System development has become more and more concentrated on development for the
Web and this has resulted in larger target groups. It will most surely continue
to be so considering that the Web will be the infrastructure of business and
services in the future. A big target group involves that the owner of a system
can earn a lot of money from the paying users, but that assumes that the system
can meet user needs. If a system on the Web does not satisfy the user?s demands
then they will use the competitor?s system instead because it is only a
mouse-click away.
Shareadox : -The paradox of service quality assurance in Sharing Economy businesses
The purpose of the Sharing Economy is to exploit unused resources between people, as an alternative to buying new and owning themselves (Gansky, 2010). Gansky (2010) argues that a major reason why the Sharing Economy has grown in recent times is, besides from the recession and people?s increased environmental awareness, the urbanization which has made people move closer to each other and in to the big cities. This in addition to an increased use of GPS technology in smartphones enables people to be constantly connected to an ever-changing network. People now share and exchange services and products from each other.

Utlänningslagen ur ett barnperspektiv : En analys av fall som prövats i Migrationsöverdomstolen
AbstractThis master thesis is a hermeneutic inspired case study of how the value base regarding the environmental and social responsibility in the Swedish coffee company Löfbergs Lila AB is affecting the company's business. A thesis inspired by hermeneutics means that it is based on two ideas, the one of interaction between entirety and partitions and the one of interpretation (Alvesson & Sköldberg 1994). This cause that the emphasis is on how the reality is interpreted and that it never can be seen as completely objective.The case study was conducted during the spring semester of 2010 at Karlstad's University and consists of both empirical and theoretical material collected during this time. The empirical material in this thesis includes, among other things, interviews with four representatives of Löfbergs Lila AB, written material from the company regarding its work related to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), some information about the coffee industry as a whole and different certifications for "ethical? coffee that exists on the Swedish market.The basic idea with CSR as a business strategy is that it can be financially beneficial for companies to take a social and environmental responsibility outside of the company (Vogel 2005).
