Abstract Before the choice of upper secondary school in the ninth grade, young people need to have knowledge of themselves and the world. In this tough choice, the parents are the main support. The supporting role, which are their thoughts on how much they influence in their children?s choice of study? Based on these issues, we seek the answer to the question; which vision have the parents on their involvement in their children's choice of upper secondary school? Which visions have the parents on the impact on their children's upper secondary school? Do the parents think that the children's upbringing has influenced their choices? Young people's career decisions take place in interaction with their parents and with very different cultural, economic, social and symbolic capital. The concepts are Pierre Bourdieu's theory that intends to be our toolbox for this thesis.

The global financial crisis hit hard on banking operations worldwide and the sector fell under considerable scrutiny, with particular criticism directed against the banks' own trading practices. A bank owned by the Swedish financial corporation HQ seemed to go without serious financial damage duringthe crisis.In 2008 Finansinspektionen began a review of HQ's activities and a number of shortcomings were identified. Among other things, HQ's risk management was questioned by Finansinspektionen and further how this potentially affected the valuation of complex financial products.In our paper we have chosen to highlight both national and international laws and guidelines that HQ used for their operations and study if HQ followed those laws and guidelines. We also want topresent the theoretical model used by HQ for the valuation of its European options and how HQ calculated their capital requirements ratio. Our purpose is to show how the valuation affected the capitalrequirement ratio and whether HQ followed the necessary laws and guidelines for the valuation of complex financial products.We have chosen to carry out a case study from a deductive approach.

Solar energy is the one most talked about among energy sources due to its huge potential amongst renewable energy technologies. A greater use of the solar energy may be the solution to today's climate threats. Normally there are two different types of solar technologies, solar cells and solar thermal collectors. Solar cells convert solar energy in to electricity whilst solar thermal collectors convert solar energy into heat, which can be used to heat hot water for households. This goal of this study has been to investigate the possibility of implementing solar energy into the energy system of Kista Galleria, one of Sweden's foremost venues.

Studiens syfte var att utv?rdera om det finns l?mpliga finansiella nyckeltal som kan anv?ndas f?r att f?rutsp? framtida tillv?xt f?r hos bolag som blivit uppk?pta av svenska serief?rv?rvare. Hypotesformuleringen ledde till att EBITDA-marginal, kapitaloms?ttningshastighet och skulds?ttningsgrad identifierades som l?mpliga oberoende variabler att utv?rdera. Syftet har besvarats med en kvantitativ metod, d?r information om de uppk?pta bolagen samlats in via Capital IQ. De statistiska sambanden mellan de oberoende variablerna och oms?ttningstillv?xt utv?rderades med hj?lp av regressionsanalyser och F-tester. Resultatet visar att det inte finns n?got signifikant samband mellan de oberoende variablerna och oms?ttningstillv?xt i den studerade datam?ngden. Detta inneb?r att personer som arbetar med serief?rv?rvande bolag i st?llet b?r prioritera andra m?tv?rden och mjuka v?rden f?r att v?lja vilka bolag de b?r k?pa. Studien har ut?kat f?rst?elsen f?r prediktorer till oms?ttningstillv?xt.

The purpose with the examination is to examine a preschool head and three teachers experiences and opinions of whether the tablet can be used to support childrens linguistic development and social interactions in preschool. To answer the purpose we will use these questions of issue:What is the purpose with tablets and how are they used in preschool activity?What pros and cons do the teachers see with tablets?How do the teachers resonate about the use of tablets to develop childrens language skill and social interactions?What type of social interaction occurs when children use the tablet?We have used interviews and observations as our methods. We interviewed three teachers and one preschool head in the capital city of Sweden. They all have a positive attitude towards the use of tablets in preschool.

Syfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka läkemedelsföretag för att sedan jämföra läkemedelsbranschen med stockholmsbörsen för att se hur läkemedelsbranschen påverkats av finanskrisen på slutet av 2000-talet.Metod: Studien bygger på en hypotesprövning och författarna har valt att använda en deduktiv ansats och en kvantitativ datainsamlingsmetod för att samla in data kring läkemedelsaktier.Teori: Studiens analyser bygger på två teoretiska modeller. Den ena är CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model) som är en modell som används för att räkna fram avkastningskravet för aktieägarna. Det andra är ett teorem (Modigliani-Millers) avseende kapitalstruktur och som behandlar marknadsvärdet på ettbolag oberoende av finansieringsform eller distribution av utdelningar.Empiri: Jämförelser mellan Stockholmsbörsens generalindex och de fem största läkemedelsbolagen visar på att läkemedelsbolagen delvis följer börsens utveckling. Men över tid så visar sig läkemedelsaktierna vara stabilare och återhämtar sig snabbare än börsen som helhet.Slutsats: Till en början kan man se att finanskrisen har påverkat hela börsen inklusive läkemedelsbranschen. Dock visar en närmare observation av händelsen att läkemedelsaktierna återhämtar sig betydligt fortare och att de totalt sett inte svänger lika mycket..

Vårt syfte var att undersöka hur medias bild av Biskopsgården påverkar identitets-skapandet hos ungdomar som bor där. Vi använde oss av en kvalitativ forsknings-metod och genomförde sex individuella intervjuer med ungdomar mellan 15 och 18 år. Efter en genomförd meningskoncentrering och tematisering av våra data, analy-serade vi dem med hjälp av Jenkins teori om identitet, Goffmans stigmatiseringsteori, samt med Bourdieus begrepp fält, habitus och kapital. Vi fann att våra informanter inte tycktes identifiera sig med medias bild av Biskopsgården, utan att de tyckte att media överdriver eller förvränger bilden av stadsdelen. Det var även tydligt att de separerade medias bild från sina egna bilder, som präglades av gemenskap och en positiv identifikation.

Syfte: Att analysera och förklara hur VC-företags ägarnärvaro vid IPOs påverkar initial underprissättning. Att analysera och förklara hur VC-företags ägarnärvaro vid IPOs påverkar långsiktig avkastning. Metod: Vi använder ett kvantitativt metodval för att besvara uppsatsens problemformulering samt syften. Genom detta val har vi möjlighet att analysera den initiala underprissättningen och långsiktiga avkastningen utefter ett antal valda variabler som kan antas ha en påverkan. Slutsatser: Vi har funnit att VC-backade IPOs har en signifikant lägre initial underprissättning än ej VC-backade IPOs.

Since 1987 until November 2010, the entrepreneurs who choose to conduct its? company in the Swedish corporate form aktiebolag had no opportunity to evade or deselect the mandatory audit. The only choice that really was there to make was to which audit firm they would turn to and the Swedish auditor?s position was rather unchallenged. Today the circumstances are different and the small businesses have been given a chance to take charge of their own situation now being able to remove the auditor.

This thesis aims to examine the conditions for entrepreneurship in Taiwan by the occurrence of cultural phenomenon guanxi. Based on the concept of familiness and guanxi, the family is central in this study of family business. Traditional descriptions of the Asian culture claim that guanxi is vital in the business context. Though, recent studies indicate that significance of guanxi seems to be changing. Therefore the purpose of this thesis is to create an understanding of the importance and relevance of guanxi in the context of Taiwanese family business.By travelling to Kaohsiung, Taiwan to interview six managers of Taiwanese family firms this study?s empirical material was gathered for further processing based on a qualitative approach.

In this two years master?s thesis I examine the library?s representation of research and its influence upon the relationship between the library practice and the research practice. I also intend to find out what controls the representation and if it is possible to see changes in the representation over time. My source material has been texts published in the Swedish library journal ? and social domain ? Biblioteksbladet during the last decennium (2001?2011).

Today's real estate buyers value the purchase different today compared to a decade back. Previously it was the return value that ruled the market. This has created problems when the broker must allocate the purchase price of the property's various elements, because non-monetary values such as forest for leisure, recreation, and the feeling of owing has increased in recent years and an increasingly important part in the valuation process. The assessed value can be a guide, but is perceived today to be stereotyped to put a fair value at the individual item. The purpose of this study was to provide the real estate agent decision support and a guide to the likely value of accounting for the purchase price. The report is written on behalf of LRF Konsult. The result is based on a questionnaire survey which was conducted in June 2014 among all those who had bought a farming property in Dalarna and Gävleborg province mediated by LRF Konsult in 2013. The report was made with a split to see if the valuation and motives differ between new and previous owners. It was possible to see a big difference in the reason for the purchase, where a large share of new owner bought the land for capital investment, in contrast to previous owners whose biggest group bought for an active use. At several points it was possible to identify a higher non-monetary value of the new owner from the previous landowner.

A1210Teknisk aktieanalys används för att från historiska kursdata försöka förutsäga den framtida kursutvecklingen. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka börstrendens inverkan av resultaten för två olika tekniska analysmodeller, glidande medelvärde och Relative Strength Index (RSI). Som dataunderlag används 12 aktier från Stockholmsbörsens A-lista för Mest omsatta aktier mellan 1988-03-01 och 2004-03-01.I studien tillämpas blankning för att oberoende av den rådande trenden ha möjlighet att generera överavkastning. Överavkastningen undersöks genom att riskjustera avkastningen med Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). Vidare belastas varje transaktion med en courtageavgift.Det visar sig att endast köpsignalerna är statistiskt signifikanta.

In 1985 the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions published a paper on recommended depreciation time on capital assets for the public sector. This paper should only be seen as guidance, but many municipals use it without any further investigations. Swedish municipals are not like private companies; one very distinguished difference is that they are not allowed to make any profit. The municipals in Sweden are regulated by the constitution law which means that they can not go bankrupt. The public and the private sector have different legislations that result in different ways on how they for example treat depreciations.
