En ökad medvetenhet kring dagens miljöproblem har bidragit till att företag i större utsträckning aktivt arbetar för en hållbar utveckling samt för att ta ansvar i samhället. Begreppet Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) behandlar företags samhällsansvar utifrån tre perspektiv; miljömässigt, ekonomiskt och socialt. Arbetet inom dessa områden presenteras av många stora företag idag i en hållbarhetsredovisning. Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) är den organisation som bistår med riktlinjer för upprättning av den här typen av redovisningar. Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att ta reda på vad GRI:s riktlinjer och rådande begrepp säger om hållbarhetsredovisning samt att utifrån vårt fallföretag Polyplank AB:s förutsättningar rekommendera lämpligt innehåll i en eventuell hållbarhetsredovisning. Metod: Vårt fallobjekt, Polyplank AB, är ett företag som verkar inom tillverkningsbranschen och utmärks genom deras miljövänliga produkter.

"Skyll inte på friheten" : en analys av den liberala miljödiskursen i Sverige
The paper is a discourse analysis of the liberal environmental discourse in Sweden today. It is based on articles in two of the main liberal Swedish newspapers, Dagens Nyheter and Sydsvenska Dagbladet, and a liberal periodical, Neo.The purpose of this study is to analyze how the environmental problems that have been produced by the industrialised society, especially global warming, are seen upon in the liberal discourse in Sweden today. The theoretical point of departure is a discourse analysis that as a method seeks to analyze the material to reveal what assumptions the discussion departs from, and what assumptions the discussions reject.The thesis concludes that the main trends in the discussions are to position the environment against the financial system and state that the capitalist system is the only system that can solve the environmental issues. The existing environmental problems are not denied, but constantly belittled and only considered to be a problem if it poses a direct threat to humans. The solution for these environmental problems is believed to be the strengthening of the financial system and the development of new technologies..

Värdering till Verkligt Värde : En jämförande studie mellan värdering och fastighetsprisindex
Allt sedan 2005 skall svenska bolag noterade på börsen upprätta sin redovisning enligt International Financial reporting Standards, IFRS/IAS. Innan införandet av standarden redovisades förvaltningsfastigheter enbart i balansräkningen och till anskaffningsvärde med avdrag för värdeminskningar. Den nya standarden innebär dock att värdering och värdeförändring numer skall tas upp till verkligt värde i balans- och resultaträkning. Redovisning och värdering till verkligt värde för dessvärre med sig en del komplikationer. Enligt teorin förutsätter metoden en perfekt och fullständig marknad, en marknadssituation som i realiteten aldrig uppstår. Samtidigt krävs, för att överhuvudtaget kunna genomföra en värdering, antaganden om marknadsutveckling och framtida kassaflöden.
