Problemdiskussion: För 25 år sedan infördes revisionsplikt i Sverige för samtliga aktiebolag. Idag diskuteras huruvida den lagen ska avskaffas och vilka bolag som ska kunna avsäga sig revision.Syfte: Författarna vill utreda om en avskaffad revisionsplikt kan leda till en ökning av den ekonomiska brottsligheten, därtill hur denna lagförändring kan påverka Skatteverkets arbete att bekämpa den.Metod: En kvalitativ studie har genomförts. Där den empiriska datainsamlingen bygger på intervjuer med tre regionchefer på skattverket. Den övriga datainsamlingen har skett via Internet, litteratur och via databaser vid Örebro universitet.Slutsats: För att den ekonomiska brottsligheten ska öka som en följd av revisionspliktens avskaffande krävs det att företaget anser att nyttan att frånsäga sig revision är större än den hjälp revisorn bistår med idag. Många bedömer att företag i framtiden kommer att använda sig av frivillig revision eftersom deras intressenter kommer att kräva detta..

The purpose of this essay was to examine whether small businesses can avoid ac-counting crimes with a well-conducted internal control system. The questions we asked ourselves was, whether and if so, companies can prevent this from happening by using a internal control.In this essay we used a qualitative approach. Essential information was given to us from four different interviewees. We also worked from an inductive approach which means that we interviewed people without any earlier research to build on. The method also had a hermeneutical approach, which means that we made different interpretations based on the reference framework and the empirics.After the study had been carried out, we concluded that all evidence from this essay suggested that even small businesses need an internal control to protect their business.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera varför och hur företag arbetar med CSR, samt hur detta arbete kan redovisas. Vi har gjort en kvalitativ undersökning med utgångspunkt i fyra företag i olika branscher, Trelleborg AB, Green Cargo, Vattenfall och SAS. Vi har även intervjuat en revisor och en konsult inom CSR-området samt gjort en attitydundersökning med hjälp av enkäter.CSR står för Corporate Social Responsibility och handlar om det ansvar som företag har gentemot samhälle och miljö. Det är ett brett begrepp som innefattar många olika aspekter och uppfattas olika i olika sammanhang.En anledning till att företag arbetar med CSR är att intressenter så som kunder, ägare, media, intresseorganisationer och myndigheter med flera påverkar och ställer krav på företag. Kunder kan välja bort produkter som inte anses vara producerade på ett ansvarsfullt sätt och kan bojkotta företag som inte tar sitt ansvar gentemot omgivningen.

The similarity between the Russian and the Indian, in a Cold War context, may be ambiguous considering the ethnic-social variables and the period in time from where the Indians relate. However, by analyzing these, as well as other, characters in the exhibition of movies, we could learn something about the ideology of the time from which the movies derive.This study examines ideology and movies in the Cold War era and concludes that the Indian, for example, may be representing the values of the common public enemy, originating from the Cold War ideology. The movies examined, regardless of influence of distinct Cold War themes or lack of such themes, carry attributes that give evidence of typical Cold War ideology. The fear of communism and common enemies connected to a Cold War context, the thought of America as the land of the free ? with the horizon in the ending of the movies as metaphoric to freedom ? and the moral rhetoric that connects to the American thought of a duty as a global savior, are all signs of the Cold War ideology.Even though the messages are somewhat clearer and more distinct in the movies with Cold War motifs, the fact that ideology is projected through other movies as well should be considered essential for the continuing study of movies as cultural artefacts..

The purpose of this essay has been to explore Alexander the Great from two different perspectives in Greece. The village Proti Serron represents the local area and the national area named Macedonia represents the second perspective. Oral history has been used as a method in addition to literature and trips to museums and archaeological places.As a guideline for the essay and its contents a stereotyped schedule has been created. This schedule is presented below, and it is also possible to read it backwards.The villagers who identify themselves with Alexander the Great from their local area Proti Serron which is a part of the national area named Macedonia.This study proves that the villagers who has been interviewed, identify themselves with the place they live in as well as its history and that they feel that it is their duty to pass this knowledge forward.

The success of self-service technology in retail grocery stores cannot be ignored, and the fact is that every other grocery store in Sweden has implemented the self-scanning or self-checkout systems. The trend is that the technique is spreading into other markets with potential to increase productivity for companies and enhance the service for customers. Fast fashion is one branch that is left untouched by the development in payment processes, and despite the leading companies extensive focus on fast service, the concept of self-service technology has not yet been tested. This paper undertake a quantitative, experimental approach to the issue and examines the effect self-checkout would have on Fast fashion- customers. By presenting a scenario with and without self- checkout and afterwards asked about the respondents experience, we can provide the marketing world with new insights.

It is essential to reuse- and recycles residues to decrease the amount of deposit materials and reach sustainable energy use. Two ways to work towards this is to recycle wood ashes to the forest as nutrient compensation and extract biogas from combustion of biomass.The aim with this study was to decide whether wood ashes that been used for biogas upgrading with accelerated carbonation also can be used as a nutrient compensation in the woods according to recommendations from the Swedish Forest Agency (Skogsstyrelsen).The ashes that were used in this study came from Johan Andersson who works at JTI in Uppsala, who also treated the ashes with biogas. The ashes have, in both untreated and treated condition, been analyzed in this study according to contents of elements, leaching properties, hardening properties and contents of crystalline phases, to evaluate what impact carbonation with biogas has on the ashes.The accelerated carbonation led to hardening of the ash, and decreased amount of CaO- and increased amount of CaCO3. The CO2-uptake also entails a dilution of the elements, and the content of nutrients and trace elements decreases. However the results show an indication of an uptake of S from the biogas to the ash, since the dilution had a smaller impact on S than the rest of the elements.

Jag valde att i min uppsats behandla den svenska Koden för bolagsstyrning(Corporate Governance) och mitt syfte var att göra en jämförelse mellan Kodensoch Aktiebolagslagens regler för bolagsstyrning För att lyckas med detta har jaganvänt mig av den traditionella juridiska metoden och utgått från denrättsdogmatiska ansatsen.Bolagen ska, enligt Koden, offentliggöra tid och plats för stämman i sambandmed att tredje kvartalsrapporten lämnas. I god tid ska bolaget på sin hemsidainformera om aktieägarnas rätt att få ärende behandlat av stämman och Kodenhar även noterat ett ökat internationellt ägande i svenskt näringsliv och därförska bolaget överväga om stämman ska simultantolkas. Även regeln om att manska kunna delta i bolagsstämma från annan ort underlättar för utländska ägare.En av de stora nyheterna i Koden är att bolagen ska ha en valberedning meduppgift att nominera kandidater till styrelsen, ge förslag till arvodering avstyrelsen, nominera revisor och föreslå arvode till revisorn. Bolagen ska även haett revisionsutskott, med ansvar för kvalitetssäkra den finansiellarapporteringen, och ett ersättningsutskott med ansvar för att bereda förslag tillprinciper för ersättningar och andra anställningsvillkor för bolagsledningen.Utöver att stärka ägarnas position är informationsgivning Kodens nyckelord. Påbolagets hemsida ska en speciell plats skapas där all information som krävsenligt Koden ska vara lätt tillgänglig.

Enligt kritisk rasteori är rasism en struktur som genomsyrar hela samhället och upprätthålls av vardagsrasism. Föreliggande studie syftar därför till att undersöka vita barns uppfattningar om "ras" i homogent vita förskolor i Sverige samt hur dessa kan påverkas genom bilderböcker. "Ras" ses här som en förändringsbar social struktur som kategoriserar in (rasifierar) folk utifrån fysiska attribut och föreställningar om agerande och egenskaper utifrån dessa. Utifrån fenomenografiskt förhållningssätt görs studien på 10 barn uppdelade på två grupper genom att läsa sex bilderböcker med rasifierade huvudroller under fyra veckor. De tekniker som används är fokusgrupp, i form av bokprat, och experimentorienterad bildspråksteknik.

Introduction: The concept of CSR was first coined in the 1950?s and refers to corporate vol-untary work to contribute to a sustainable society. In Sweden, companies within the finance sector are among the worst when it comes to implementing CSR in their daily work. The debate on whether companies should engage in CSR activities or not, is extremely relevant nowadays. Right now we are facing a time where the demand on companies to take their social responsi-bility becomes more intensified.

The two swedish unions, Akademikerförbundet SSR and Kommunal, have a majority of female participations who mainly work in the public services. The difference between the unions is that one of them only represents members with academic educations and the other has members with lower educations. The aim of this study was to compare the two unions according to the terms exit, voice and loyalty, but also participation and influence. There were 142 participants in this study and 8 participants were interviewed in a pre-study. The result of the study shows that voice is a strong predictor to wellbeing in work life.

This paper examines how companies in a transparent industry work to satisfy the customer in an extended way, to offer value added products that in the end enables the customer to be loyal to the company. We have studied the insurance industry in Sweden and have focused on five different insurance companies. Four of them, Folksam, Länsförsäkringar, Trygg-Hansa and Dina Försäkringar, where we have focused on Ölands Försäkringar which is part of the Dina Försäkringar group, are some of the largest insurance companies in Sweden. The fourth company is Swedbank which is a bank that has started to offer insurances.Our results demonstrate that it is important for the company to see the customer not only in a profitability aspect; the company has to find out what the customer gets in return. In that case the possibility for the customer to change company decreases and the chance that the customer becomes loyal increases.
